Two of SBG Ireland’s brightest young prospects, Cian Cowley and Nikolay Grozdev, are confirmed to compete at Brave CF 24 in London on July 25, a person with knowledge to the situation told MMA Junkie. The source asked to remain anonymous since Brave ha yet to make an announcement.

A lightweight bout between SBG Ireland’s Cowley and Maciej Gierszewski is the first addition to the card.

Cowley (2-2 MMA), longtime teammate of Conor McGregor, won his first two promotional bouts for Brave before dropping his most recent bout via split decision to John Brewin back in March.

The former Thai boxing champion, Cowley, will look to rebound when he takes on Poland’s Gierszewski. Gierszewski (5-4 MMA) has competed across the European region for the likes of Cage Warriors, BAMMA and a lone appearance for Bellator in Newcastle. He’s coming off of a second-round TKO win just last month as he makes a quick turnaround for his Brave CF debut.

SBG prospect, Nikolay Grozdev (1-0 MMA), meanwhile, also makes his Brave debut. He’s coming off a third-round armbar win at WWFC 14, notching his first pro win. He has signed a multi-fight deal with Brave.

Grozdev has been part of many of McGregor’s training camps over the years, sweating it out on the wrestling mats. The Moldovan featherweight will look to build momentum in his pro career under the banner of one of the fastest growing promotions, Brave CF.

Brave CF 24 is the promotion’s first trip to London and is an invite only MMA event. More details and announcements are expected to emerge in these upcoming weeks.
