The staredown between Recep Gültekin and Rafael Tupy stole the show, as Tupy came dressed as Santa Claus and greeted his opponent with gifts. After exchanging pleasantries, the intensity quickly escalated, signalling to fans that there will be no fun and games when the cage doors close at BRAVE CF 90.

Elsewhere, respect was the theme during the other staredowns. Ahead of their Light Heavyweight main event clash, Rasul Magomedov and Łukasz Olech displayed mutual respect, despite Olech missing weight. A similar dynamic unfolded during the co-main event face-off between Magomed-Emin Dadaev and Davlet Karataev.

Earlier on Friday, fighters stepped on the scales for the official weigh-ins where Łukasz Olech and Kinga Jendrasik missed weight, while Youssef Boughanem weighed in after the designated time. Despite these minor hiccups, the fight card remains intact, promising a historic night of action for MMA fans worldwide.

For the main event, undefeated Bahraini superstar Rasul Magomedov weighed in at 93.05kg, well within the 93.44kg Light Heavyweight limit. However, his opponent, Łukasz Olech, missed weight on both attempts, weighing 94.30kg initially and 93.70kg on his second attempt.

Magomed-Emin Dadaev and Davlet Karataev showed professionalism ahead of their co-main event clash on Saturday night by successfully making weight on their first attempts at 70.30kg each.

For the Heavyweight bout, Boxing star Agron Smakici tipped the scales at 108.95kg, while his opponent, Robert Maruszak, came in at 119.75kg, comfortably within the 120.66kg limit.

Striking legend Youssef Boughanem weighed in at 71.80kg for his 72kg Catchweight bout, although he stepped on the scale after the official weigh-in time. His opponent, Johan Van de Hel, made weight at 71.85kg on his second attempt after initially coming in at 72.05kg.

Elsewhere, Kinga Jendrasik missed the Strawweight limit of 52.61kg, weighing in at 53.65kg. Her opponent and former IMMAF Medallist Songül Karatorak, successfully made weight at 52.40kg for her professional MMA debut.
