Brave Combat Federation revealed that two new weight classes are officially announced during Brave 19 hosted in Johannesburg, South Africa. The weight classes will be active from the year 2019. Bahrain based global MMA promotion will adopt the super lightweight (165 pounds) and super welterweight (175 pounds) weight classes, eliminating the traditional welterweight (170 pounds) in the process. The current welterweight champion Jarrah Hussein Al-Silawi, who claimed the 170-pound belt with a first-round victory over Carlston Harris in September, will be crowned the super welterweight titleholder when the change is made official. The new weight classes will make it easier for fighters to make the weights and would lower the risks of weight cuts. The change also means that fighters are more likely to fight closer to their natural weight. After the announcements, Carl Booth, Tahar Hadbi and David Bear expressed their interest to join the 175 division which is opted by Jarrah Al-Selawe, the

It was during the first hour of Friday (07) when Arnold "Silverback" Quero was officially declared unable to compete at the Brave 19 co-main event against Frans Mlambo in South Africa. Last-minute changes are the worst nightmare of promoters but being in Sun City, the beautiful and isolated resort at least two to three hours away from any major South African city, the challenge is even bigger. Nonetheless, the gods of MMA decided to intervene and Brave 19 is now co-headlined by what has been called by Brave's official commentator Kirik Jenness as the "Miracle Fight". Dansheel Moodley is one of the top prospects in South Africa, with a professional record of 4-1 and currently on a three-win streak, and has been on Brave's radar for a while now. He ended up not being called to the promotion's debut in his home country but never gave up on his dream. So much that when one of his teammates invited him to be his cornerman at Fightstars, the amateur event leading up to Brave 19 during the
