LAS VEGAS – History was at stake when Ismael Bonfim and Gabriel Bonfim laced up their gloves Tuesday.
The Brazilian brothers once again had a chance to fight on the same card as each other. But at Dana White’s Contender Series 53, potential UFC contracts were on the line for each of them. And they delivered.
For the first time in the series’ history, siblings fought on the same card and won on the same card – and both Ismael and Gabriel were given UFC deals by promotion president Dana White.
