HYPE Brazil
Hype Fighting Championship lands in Brazil for one of the most explosive combat sports cards of the year — and they're bringing some of the biggest names in the game with them.
Headlining the submission-only grappling action is Arman Tsarukyan.
In a blockbuster addition to the card, Brazilian featherweight Jean "Lord" Silva faces grappling specialist Bryce "Thug Nasty" Mitchell in a submission-only co-main event. When these two met at UFC 314, Silva shocked the world by finishing the submission specialist with a precision ninja choke — one of the most electric moments of 2025. Now on home soil, both men arrive with something to prove.
Another submission-only showdown puts one of combat sports' most talked-about matchups on the mats: the electric Shara "Bullet" Magomedov against streets legend Jorge Masvidal. "Gamebred" hasn't competed in MMA since 2023, while Magomedov is coming off a draw against Tsarukyan himself at Hype FC's December event.
Rounding out the main card, bare-knuckle action takes over with Victor Felisberto vs. Bruno Nascimento and Brendo Lucas vs. Rafael Brum
The prelims deliver a full slate of bare-knuckle action featuring Lury Fernandes vs. Caio Brando, Mauricio Boni vs. Leonardo Guimaraes, Luan Duarte vs. Bruno Almeida, Lucas Teijeira vs. Santy Bubans, Matheus Rangel vs. Paulo Ceará and Guilherme França vs. Daniel Mega
