On Saturday, June 7, BRAVE CF hosted BRAVE CF 96: Jun vs. Fakrehddine, live from Hala Tivoli in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The event featured a main event of Erko Jun vs. Mohammad Fakhreddine for Jun’s BCF middleweight title. The co-main was Nicholas Hwende vs. Borislav Nikolic for Hwende’s BCF bantamweight title.
Both champions were dethroned this night. Jun, who was attempting to defend his title for the first time, was put away by Fakrehddine in the first round. The pair traded shots near the fence, but it was Fakrehddine who landed the hardest shot, flawing Jun and taking the title from him.
In the co-main event Nikolic sprawled on a Hwende takedown attempt and then caught the champ in a tight ninja choke on his way back up. That was also Hwende’s first attempt at defending the belt.
