One of France’s most popular fighters outside of the UFC has been gifted a co-main event opportunity at Brave CF 74, as Anthony Dizy steps in on short notice to face Vladyslav Rudniev in Nantes.

Dizy, who holds a record of 15 wins, four losses, has won his last two bouts, and has been given the opportunity to step in on less than one week’s notice to replace Axel Sola, who has been forced off the card.

Dizy will face combat sambo world champion Rundniev in the co-headline spot on the double-card on September 7, as Brave CF and Hexagone MMA co-host a big show at the H Arena in Nantes.

Dizy’s most recent outing saw him defeat Roger Garcia by unanimous decision at Hexagone MMA 9, and French fans will get to see him compete on home soil once again when he faces Ukraine’s Rudniev, who enters the bout looking to extend his perfect professional record to 7-0.
