This Thursday, promoters Amaury Bitetti and Fernando Chacur made an announcement as to what’s to come at the Bitetti Combat promotion’s tenth installment, to take place October 15 at Botafogo gymnasium in Rio de Janeiro.
“We’ll put on two welterweight GPs. The champion of each GP will have to win two fights on the night of the event. Those two will face off for the divisional title at the December event,” explains Amaury Bitetti.
Standouts from the Brazilian domestic MMA scene like Ivan Batman, André Chatuba, Edilberto Crocotá, Roberto Corvo and Julian Jabá and others are on the roster.
“What’s more, soon we’ll be announcing the superfight for the show. It’ll be a great one, and we expect to pack Botafogo gymnasium like we did last event,” says Bitetti in closing.
