Brave CF 108 card, start times and how to watch Vrtacic vs Bouafia
BRAVE CF 108 full card, start times and how to watch: Andi Vrtacic meets Sofiane Bouafia in Pula, Croatia on Saturday, September 5, plus the full lineup.
BRAVE CF is back in Croatia this weekend for BRAVE CF 108, a nine-fight card built around a hometown main event and a co-main with real name recognition outside the Balkans. Andi Vrtacic fights in front of his own crowd against France's Sofiane Bouafia at middleweight, and former ONE Championship title challenger Stephen Loman makes his promotional debut opposite Georgia's Lasha Abramishvili at bantamweight. The card is set for Arena Pula in Pula, Croatia, on Saturday, September 5.
Vrtacic (9-3) headlines against Bouafia (8-4) in a five-round, non-title affair at 185 pounds. Loman (17-3), who challenged for ONE gold across two divisions before this signing, meets Abramishvili (12-2-1) in a co-main also booked for five rounds. Every bout on the nine-fight card carries a five-round assignment, an unusual setup for a regional promotion and a sign BRAVE CF wants this show to go the distance if it has to.
Start times
- Main card: 4:00 PM ET (1:00 PM PT / 9:00 PM BST / 10:00 PM CEST in Pula), Saturday, September 5
