BRAVE CF 105 x Alash Pride 123 | Two Title Fights Set for Almaty

Video: BRAVE CF 105 x Alash Pride 123 heads to Almaty, Kazakhstan on May 31 with Omar Solomonov vs Nicholas Hwende for the undisputed BRAVE CF featherweight title and Alexey Meshkov vs Asyljan Tasket in an Alash Pride title rematch.

BRAVE CF 105 x Alash Pride 123 Brings a Big Title Night to Almaty

BRAVE CF returns to Kazakhstan on May 31 with a co-promoted card that feels bigger than a routine international stop. BRAVE CF 105 x Alash Pride 123 lands at Baluan Sholak Sports Palace in Almaty, with Alash Pride giving the event a strong local backbone and BRAVE bringing the global championship layer.

The headline is the featherweight title fight: Omar Solomonov vs Nicholas Hwende. The matchup Hwende vs Solomonov has a simple but serious hook. Solomonov is the interim featherweight champion trying to turn his belt into the undisputed one. Hwende is the former BRAVE CF bantamweight champion moving up with a chance to become a two-division champion.

Hwende vs Solomonov: Undisputed Featherweight Gold

This is the kind of main event BRAVE likes to build around: two international fighters, real title stakes, and a division that can change shape in one night. Solomonov already proved he belongs at the top by winning interim gold, but interim status always comes with unfinished business. Beating Hwende would remove the “interim” part and make him the clear featherweight champion.

Hwende’s side is just as interesting. A former bantamweight champion chasing a second belt is never a normal challenger. He is not just trying to win another fight. He is trying to build a legacy across divisions, and that makes the pressure different. If he beats Solomonov in Kazakhstan, he does more than win featherweight gold — he becomes one of the more important champions in BRAVE CF history.

The styles also make the fight easy to care about. Solomonov brings the confidence of a fighter already holding championship hardware. Hwende brings experience, title-fight composure, and the danger of someone who knows exactly how rare this opportunity is.

Meshkov vs Tasket: Alash Pride Title Rematch With Bad Blood Built In

The second major title fight gives the card its local edge. Asyljan Tasket defends his Alash Pride featherweight title against Alexey Meshkov in Meshkov vs Tasket, and this one has a real rematch story behind it.

Meshkov knocked out Tasket in their previous meeting, but the title situation stayed messy because Meshkov did not make weight. That means Tasket kept the belt, while Meshkov kept the violent proof that he could beat the champion. Now they run it back with the belt properly on the line, and that is exactly the kind of fight Alash Pride fans can get behind.

For Tasket, this is about more than defending a title. It is about correcting the image of the first fight. For Meshkov, it is about doing the same thing again, this time with the weight and belt situation clean. That kind of rematch does not need fake tension. The tension is already there.

Why This Kazakhstan Card Matters

BRAVE CF has been pushing hard into Central Asia, and Kazakhstan has become one of the key places in that international map. Pairing with Alash Pride makes sense because it gives local fighters and fans a bigger platform while keeping the event connected to Kazakhstan’s own MMA scene.

That is what makes BRAVE CF 105 x Alash Pride 123 worth watching. You get the global title fight with Hwende vs Solomonov, the local championship rematch with Meshkov vs Tasket, and a packed Almaty setting that should give the whole night real energy.
