Jungle Fight MMA to debut in Niterói, Brazil

The Jungle Fight MMA organization is making its debut in Niterói, Brazil, with the Jungle Fight 155 event scheduled for October 3. The announcement was officially celebrated at Arena Niterói by event founder Wallid Ismail and Mayor Rodrigo Neves.

Marking the 23rd anniversary of the organization, the event will feature three championship belts and will be broadcast live on SporTV and Combate. Free tickets, which require the donation of one kilogram of non-perishable food, sold out in less than 18 hours. The food donations will be managed in partnership with the Legião da Boa Vontade (LBV) for distribution to families in need.

To accommodate the high demand, a Fan Fest with food trucks and a large screen will be set up outside the arena. Additionally, the organization will host the 'Eliminatórias Jungle' during the event week, a selection process designed to provide professional contracts to emerging fighters, particularly those from social projects.
