One of the finest Mixed Martial Artists the Philippines ever produced is back on the international stage.
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship contender Rolando “The Incredible” Dy is back headlining the Brave Combat Federation as he is set to square off against Slobodan Maksimovic in the main event of BRAVE CF 56 held in Belgrade, Serbia.
Dy, Brave CF’s Fighter of the Year winner last year, is fresh off signing a three-year partnership with the MMA fighting league and is also coming off a two-fight winning streak.
However, the Filipino will be facing hometown hero Maksimovic, one of Brave CF’s stars with immense power in both of his hands.
The Serbian is highly regarded to be one of the heaviest hitters in Brave right now and Dy is out to prove that fight styles matter.
Dy, a known technical tactician inside the octagon, can take you down to the ground when given a favorable position and is also an efficient striker in a stand-up fight.
If Dy can win and extend his fight win streak, there will be a huge chance that Brave CF will be rewarding him with his long-time dream of having a shot at the lightweight title.
“Without hesitations, they gave me the opportunity to write a new chapter in my story as a combat sports competitor. Here I am today, one of the best fighters on their roster and in the world,” Dy said.
