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. One of the most dynamic competitors in all of combat sports meets one of the most decorated young grapplers in MMA. When Tsarukyan steps on the mat, fireworks follow.

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.

In the opening grappling match Lev Sarkisyan takes on Joilton Lutterbach. 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 Mauricio Boni vs. Leonardo Guimaraes, Luan Duarte vs. Bruno Almeida, Wallace De Lima vs Carlos Silva, Matheus Rangel vs. Paulo Ceará and Guilherme França vs. Daniel Mega
