In the bantamweight (135 pounds) main event, 22-year-old wrecking machine Ismael “Kraken” Zamora (3-1) will face off with submission expert and “COPA COMBATE” tournament veteran Cristian “Scorpio” Barraza (8-5).

A member of the famed Bonebreakers team that is also home to reigning Combate Global World Bantamweight Champion David Martinez, Zamora of Mexico City is one of the sport’s most highly regarded, pound-for-pound prospects who has earned all of his victories to date by way of (T)KO or submission.

Barraza of Santiago, Chile is a 28-year-old Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu brown belt who has earned 7 of his 8 career victories by way of submission.

Barraza represented Chile in the 2021 “COPA COMBATE” one-night, eight-man, $100,000 grand prize tournament where he took eventual tournament champion Frans Mlambo of Ireland the distance of their quarterfinal stage bout, before Mlambo was declared the winner by way of decision.
