Magomedov ended a series of two defeats.

On November 25, the next Brave CF 76 mixed martial arts tournament was held in Jakarta (Indonesia). The main event of the evening was the fight between the Russian fighter, former champion of the organization Kamil Magomedov and the Australian Josh Togo. The fight took place in the lightweight category.

Kamil Magomedov achieved his main successes in MMA at the amateur level, winning the title of European champion, and also repeatedly won medals in local competitions. Kamil started playing professionally in 2012 and managed to change several regional leagues before arriving at Fight Nights. In 2021, Magomedov signed a contract with Brave CF and got off to a bad start with a loss to future UFC fighter Sam Patterson. In total, the Russian has four games in the League and three defeats. Curiously, he managed to win the belt, lose it and face the fight with Togo with two defeats. A threatening situation that Kamil definitely wanted to correct.

How was the previous Brave CF tournament:

Badr Hari’s heir and the judge’s misfortune. Isn’t Spain the best place for MMA?

Josh Togo, for his part, has just made his Brave CF debut. In his last 11 fights, the Australian won eight victories and suffered only one defeat. But two fights were declared invalid. Prior to joining Brave CF, Togo competed in UAE Warriors, Eternal MMA, Urban Fight Night and Hex Fight Series.

The first minute of the fight was happy. Kamil used his taekwondo foundation and targeted his opponent’s head with kicks, landing well several times. Togo withstood the blow and did not force events, he simply waited. Magomedov worked as number one and once landed a clever spinning kick, but, again, the opponent also resisted.

The Russian fighter once again started the second segment better and surprised the Australian, but he himself could not stand, slipping on the canvas. However, Magomedov did not let go of Togo, first passing him with a spectacular throw to the chest and then taking him from behind. After a few seconds, Camille managed to gain a foothold and move her hand towards Josh’s neck. As a result, Togo was forced to surrender midway through the second round.

This season, Brave CF streams are available on OKKO.

Kamil Magomedov did what he desperately needed: he spectacularly returned to winning ways. Now the Russian begins another campaign for the Brave CF belt, but Josh Togo had an extremely unsuccessful debut in his new league. The Australian is not yet capable of such opposition.
