Background
Cage Warriors – Europe’s Leading MMA Organisation – returns to Newcastle with a stacked card pitting the region’s finest against elite opposition from the UK, Europe and beyond!
Topping the bill, local favourite Harry ‘Houdini’ Hardwick will look to follow in the footsteps of his younger brother George and coach Abdul Mohamed in adding his name to the list of Middlesborough Fight Academy representatives to have held CW gold.
He’ll face The Netherland’s surging contender Orlando Wilson Prins, who stepped up at the eleventh hour to chance his hand at greatness.
Also on the card, Kennedy Freeman makes her sophomore appearance in the famous yellow gloves, as she faces Brazilian brawler Gisele Libânio.
Another local fan favourite – Joshua Abraham – makes his long awaited return to Cage Warriors, opening the evening’s main card against former title challenger Aiden Lee.
