A training partner of former lightweight champ Charles Oliveira, Brener emerged as one of the most highly-touted prospects of the Chute Boxe Diego Lima team in 2023. After scoring huge upset wins against Zubaira Tukhugov and Guram Kutateladze, Brener scored a first-round KO win over Kaynan Kruschewsky in his last outing in November.
Meanwhile, Orolbai made his promotional debut on four days’ notice at welterweight against Uros Medic in November, scoring an impressive submission win. The Kyrgyz standout hasn’t lost a fight since 2020 and now rides a seven-fight winning streak.
