Cage Warriors shuts the cage door in the North West of England at the BEC Arena for the second time this year. A top level featherweight bout headlines the card with a Swedish fan favourite Tobias Harila taking on James Hendin.
The card is stacked full of local talent with plenty of stars out of Next Gen MMA in Liverpool. The jewel in the crown being Luke Riley who at 7-0 is a promising star. However, he is up against another unbeaten featherweight in Alexander Lööf.
Tobias Harila bounds into fight week on a two fight win streak. Harila bodes a 92 percent finish rate, making him a thrilling finisher. Hendin has been out of the cage for best part of a year but is coming off a first round submission of hugely experienced veteran, Araik Margarian.
The co-main event includes Cage Warriors royalty in Matthew Bonner. Bonner heads into his 17th fight with the promotion against Samir Zaidi. Zaidi is making his debut and holds a great spot on the card in what is a huge opportunity for the debutant.
