Lets do it –New BRAVE CF champion Nkosi Ndebele signs off on trilogy fight with Shorty Torres
Dec 18, 2023
It looks like Nkosi Ndebele and Jose ‘’Shorty’’ Torres will make BRAVE Combat Federation history by doing the first trilogy ever under the most global MMA organization, founded in the Kingdom of Bahrain. After the former champion expressed his desire for a third fight with his South-African rival, Ndebele signed off on the idea with a simple message: ‘’Let’s do it!’’.
Nkosi Ndebele made history last Friday by becoming the first homemade BRAVE CF champion of the world with a destructive technical KO over Jose Torres, the previous champion. The victory added another huge chapter in both men’s stories within the promotion and their own careers.
It all started at BRAVE CF 73, when Ndebele and Torres fought for the vacant Bantamweight title. After five grueling rounds over in Bogota, Colombia, at 2600 m above sea level, Torres came out victorious with a disputed split decision.
After the match-up, a frustrated Ndebele called out Torres for a rematch, even going as far as calling him a ‘’fake champion’’. The rivalry, plus fans from around the world calling for the rematch, made it happen. The two headlined BRAVE CF 80, the last event of the year, and Nkosi let all his frustrations out, putting on a clinic and shutting down Torres, before the former champion waived off the bout himself.
Immediately after the end of the fight, ‘’Shorty’’ called out for a third bout, which would be the first trilogy in BRAVE CF history. And it seems as if the new champion is more than willing to close out that rivalry with a third and final fight between two of the top Bantamweights in the world.
