Jared Goff played better, but the Rams still lost by Michael Dugger

A featherweight superfight between Rafael Barbosa and Luis “Betao” Nogueira added to Future 9 on Oct. 9.

A featherweight scrap between Rafael Barbosa and Luis “Betao” Nogueira has reportedly been added to Future 9 which takes place in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Oct. 9. The fight is being billed as a superfight and will join six other previously announced bouts for the new Brazilian MMA promotion.

The bout comes just weeks after it was announced that Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) would be postponing their LFA 78 and LFA 79 fight cards pending a new broadcast contract. Barbosa was originally slated to face Tyler Diamond for the LFA featherweight title and appears to have hopped onto the Future FC 9 card just in time. He’s riding a seven-fight win streak dating back to March 2018 including a second-round TKO at the Future FC inaugural event.

Barbosa will step in to face a veteran in Nogueira, who is a former Bellator Season 6 bantamweight tournament finalist. He holds an impressive 21-8 record but is on a four-fight skid with recent losses under the ACB, World Fighting Championship Akhmat and Pancrase. He looks to get back in the win column with a victory over a young prospect in his Future FC debut.

North American fans will be able to watch the whole fight card for free on YouTube, with English commentary.
