Scott Malone vs Tanio Pagliariccio
Scott ‘Boom Boom’ Malone (9-5-0) looks to take this fight as an opportunity to bounce back from a close split decision loss against Dylan Hazan in October 2021. This didn’t overshadow a good year for Scott, though, considering he grabbed two wins in two months when he beat Kiru Singh Sahota and Serdar Altas. 6 of Scott’s nine career wins have come by finish. This includes a high-level Von Flue Choke in his second pro fight. He has been a prevalent figure on Cage Warriors and other fight promotions main cards over the past few years, even capturing Evolution of Combat’s Bantamweight title in 2020. The Scots attending the event in Manchester next month will be backing their boy all the way!
Tanio Pagliariccio (7-2-0) sets sights on extending his winning streak to two at CW 136; After he managed to grab a decision win against Silvano Pais in July of 2021. The Italian has built up nine pro fights since 2018, with most of them coming in Italy’s top promotions. Tanio favours submissions to finish fights as he has three guillotine choke wins in total. His most recent win got him the FederKombat Flyweight Championship; however, he will fight under Cage Warriors from now on and looks to make himself known to UK fans.
