MIXED MARTIAL ARTS – BRAVE Combat Federation continues its remarkable global expansion, announcing yesterday a thrilling main event for Brave CF 94, set for May 17 at the prestigious Arena de Genève in Switzerland.
Teaming up with Warriors Night Championship (WNC), the event marks Switzerland’s debut on the Brave CF map, becoming the 17th European country and 36th worldwide to host an event from the world’s most global mixed martial arts (MMA) organisation.
In the night’s main event, Lithuania’s devastating knockout artist Pavel Dailidko will defend his Brave CF heavyweight world championship against undefeated American grappling prodigy Odie Delaney.
Pavel Dailidko (9-2-0), standing at six-feet, four-inches tall and weighing in at 244lbs, has dominated the division with five consecutive finishes, each a testament to his ferocious power and striking precision.
Known as “The Experiment”, Dailidko captured the title with a string of electrifying knockouts, including a highlight-reel knee knockout at Brave CF 70. Now, as he gears up for his first title defense on Swiss soil, he carries not just his belt but the pride of Lithuania into the cage.
Across from him, Odie Delaney (5-0-0) steps into the biggest fight of his life. A former NCAA All-American wrestler, Delaney has transitioned seamlessly into professional MMA, submitting all five of his opponents.
Armed with a black belt under Marcelo “Pitbull” Santos, “The Witness” has developed a reputation for creative and punishing submissions, including rare brabo chokes and calf cranks. Beyond the cage, Delaney is a symbol of resilience, having overcome personal battles with PTSD to emerge as a mental health advocate and martial arts mentor.
This clash at Brave CF 94 isn’t just striker versus grappler – it’s a battle between raw knockout power and technical submission mastery.
For Dailidko, a successful defense would cement his place as one of Europe’s finest heavyweights. For Delaney, victory would signal the rise of a new dominant force and etch his name into Brave CF history as the third American world champion under the banner.
Brave CF’s upcoming event in Switzerland will be held as part of the “Year of the BRAVE”. It follows more record-breaking events scheduled for Europe in 2025.
Along with the co-main event, the card is expected to feature top MMA talent from around the world, alongside Swiss superstars, making it a must-watch event for MMA fans globally.
