Description This week we kickoff our 2024 Brazil shows with our 7th show in Cajamar, and 9th in the state of Sao Paulo.
This week’s main event features a Light Heavyweight Title fight as the champion Bruno Lopes (11-1) returns for the first time since September 2022 to defend his title for the first time against Marcos Brigagao (17-6). Both men are Dana White Contender Series-veterans with Lopes coming off his first ever loss as a Pro on the show in September, while Brigagao lost to LFA-vet Jamal Pogues on the show in 2019. Lopes is ranked #10 by Tapology in Brazil at 205 lbs and has 9 finishes in 11 victories. Brigagao is ranked #6 in Brazil and has 15 finishes in 17 victories. The two have combined for 16 first-round finishes. Both men have good striking pedigrees, but the BJJ Black Belt, Bruno Lopes should have the edge on the ground.
Our co-main event promises fireworks as strikers Samuel Silva (11-4-1) and Anderson Ferreira (18-4) square off at Lightweight. Silva has rattled off 3 wins in a row including a win over DWCS-vet Rodrigo Lidio at LFA 166 in September. He’s Tapology’s #15 ranked Lightweight in Brazil and has 10 finishes in 11 wins. Ferreira has won 4 fights in a row and along with an impressive MMA resume, he has won world titles in Kickboxing/Muay Thai. He is ranked #12 in Brazil and has finishes in all but one of his Pro victories (16 KOs, 1 Sub). The two have combined for 23 first-round finishes and both fighters were nominated for “Fight of the Year” in the 2023 Fan’s Choice Awards, so you can expect them to provide another nominee here.
