Professionally known as Cris Cyborg, Cristiane Justino Venâncio, 34, of Curitiba, Brazil will renew her support of BRAVE Combat Federation’s worldwide endeavors. The mixed martial artist currently signed to Bellator MMA has been confirmed as a special guest at “BRAVE CF 31,” which will take place in Durban, South Africa on December 7, 2019.
An ambassador of BRAVE CF for years, Cyborg will once again attend an event, after showing her support back at “BRAVE CF 4,” which will take place at the IPIC Arena in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates on March 31, 2017. Since then, she has continued to be vocal of her endorsement for the Bahrain-based MMA promotion’s global mission of taking MMA to all corners of the world, backing the initiative through her social media numerous times.
Cyborg is currently training for her world championship bout in South Africa and will take a break from training camp to attend “BRAVE CF 31,” which marks the third time BRAVE CF hosts a show in Africa. The promotion remains the only truly global organization to aid in the development of the sport in the continent by taking international athletes to compete against local stars in the continent.
While in Durban, Cyborg will get the chance of watching a piece of history as BRAVE CF will crown its first ever middleweight world champion. In the main event of “BRAVE CF 31,” her fellow Brazilian Daniel “Gaucho” Souza Pereira faces off against local hero Chad Hanekom for the inaugural title.
Also, Cyborg has the chance to watch her new teammate in action. The Bellator MMA fighter recently spent time training with Hanekom’s head coach Richie Quan.
Furthermore, Cyborg will have the chance to watch other stars in the making as nine South African fighters will be in action against some of the biggest stars in the BRAVE CF roster from all over the world. The other countries to be represented are Finland, France, Sweden, Holland and England.
