Fans from Bogota just got yet another massive reason to pack the Coliseo El Salitre on August 12 for BRAVE CF 73.

The card, which headlines the biggest combat sports week in the history of Latin America, BRAVE Pan American Combat Week 2023, got the addition of Eduardo Mora, one of the most prominent and popular fighters in town.

BRAVE Combat Federation announced that Mora will be facing Keron Bourne, from Trinidad and Tobago, in a featured bantamweight bout.

The fight will be the chance for “El Burro” to bounce back from his last promotional appearance, in which he ended up submitted by Izzeddine Al Derbani. Bourne, who boasts an undefeated professional record of 7 wins and no losses, might be making his BRAVE Combat Federation debut but is, by no means, a newcomer to the combat sports community.

At age 39, Bourne is a legend in his country, with an extensive background in multiple martial arts, including a prolific career in sambo, and belts in the regional MMA circuit.

BRAVE CF 73 takes place on August 12 at the Coliseo El Salitre, in Bogota, Colombia. The event, held in association with local promoters LFC, is part of the 2023 BRAVE Pan American Combat Week, alongside the IMMAF Amateur Pan American Championships.

The card will be headlined by the bantamweight world title bout between José “Shorty” Torres and Nkosi “The Future” Ndebele.
