A dramatic turn of events in the BRAVE CF 61 main event is guaranteed to ramp up the excitement for German MMA fans.
Belarusian Vadim Kutsyi has been forced to step down from his Super Lightweight bout against Marcel Grabinski due to illness and has been replaced by German-Brazilian star Joilton Lutterbach. It will be a mouth-watering fight for the German fans since both men train in rival gyms and have fought before with Lutterbach coming out on top via decision, back in 2017.
Since then, however, Marcel has transformed into the number one fighter in Germany, with eight victories in his last nine bouts (with the lone loss coming via disqualification).
In 2021, Grabinski signed with BRAVE CF, where he has earned two monumental wins against Issa Isakov and Mihail Cotruta, that have left him on the cusp of a title shot against reigning Super Lightweight world champion Eldar Eldarov.
He will now take on former rival Joilton Lutterbach, who has gone around the world, fighting in the United States, Poland, Russia, England, and his native Brazil. He has signed a multi-fight deal with BRAVE Combat Federation that kicks off against Grabinski.
For Marcel, the stakes have never been higher, as the new main event for BRAVE CF 61 provides the Dusseldorf native with the chance to exact revenge against Lutterbach and earn a shot at becoming the number one Super Lightweight in mixed martial arts today. Meanwhile, Lutterbach will look for a winning start in his new home and the chance to announce himself as a force to be reckoned with at 165lbs.
BRAVE CF 61 will take place on August 6th, in Bonn, Germany, and will be held in association with leading local promotion National Fighting Championship (NFC). Germany will become the 28th nation to host a BRAVE CF show, and the 11th European nation to welcome the fastest-growing MMA organization in the world.
