Brandon Briglio has had a wild start to his fighting career and things only got crazier when he made his return to the cage at Battle Field Fight League (BFL) 76 at the Harbour Convention Centre.

Brandon is a promising mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter with a 1-0 amateur record.

Brandon has only been training in MMA for just over a year now, but was quickly offered an amateur title shot at BFL 76 for just his second ever fight. It’s not often that a fighter gets offered a title fight this early in their career even at the amateur level. Brandon had a impressive performance in his first fight though which led to BFL owners and promoters offering him the opportunity:

“I dominated my MMA debut back in December and I guess the owner liked what he saw. I’m really grateful for the opportunity, to show off my skill/ hard work I’ve been into this sport thus far.”

It’s not just the early title shot that is unprecedented about Brandon’s career though. This type of progress for a fighter just over a year into their career is unheard of in the fight community. Brandon says at the end of the day it just comes down to his hard work and mentality:

“I think it comes down to my mentality. I refuse to give up on myself and everyone who has put the time and effort to help me in my training.”

Brandon faced off against Varun Sunder, a talented up and comer at BFL 76.

The first two rounds were very competitive but Brandon seemed to come out on top of both. Varun was able to land a hard punch in the third though that knocked Brandon against the cage. Brandon seemed to be stunned but he threw a wild hook that caught Varun and put him to the canvas. Brandon was able to get the technical knockout (TKO) victory.

Brandon left BFL 76 as the new 125 pound amateur champion and increased his record to 2-0. Time will tell what’s next for the new champion but a professional debut can’t be far away for Brandon.
