Gerardo Fanny vs Aaron Aby
Gerardo Fanny (11-2-0) made himself a well-known CW flyweight when he earned two quality finishes last year. One of which was a flying knee KO over Connor Hignett. The Dutchman has fought in global promotions throughout his career, including in China, Russia, and Germany. He is now in what seems to be his home at Cage Warriors, where he is currently 2-1. His only Cage Warriors loss was a Bantamweight Title bout against Jack Cartwright. Since then, it has been smooth sailing, with two wins added to his record. He will look to make that three in under a month’s time.
