How to Watch Cage Warriors 169

Abhishek NambiarMar 29, 2024

The tradition of Cage Warriors Fighting Championship gracing the London area imbues each event with the enduring allure of combat. The thunderous cheer of the passionate crowd on Saturday will echo through the Indigo at The O2 when Cage Warriors 169 takes center stage.

The spotlight shines on the main event as all eyes turn to the return of former featherweight champion Jordan Vucenic and his showdown with formidable Italian contender Simone D’Anna. Vucenic, a towering figure in the promotion, clinched the 145-pound strap in a gripping showdown against Morgan Charriere. However, his reign was abruptly halted when he relinquished the title to Phil Hughes in a thrilling encounter at Cage Warriors 145. Despite the loss, Vucenic made a strong comeback with a pair of second-round rear-naked choke victories over Tiziano Ferranti and Brice Picaud, propelling him back towards the top of the division once again. Meanwhile, D’Anna notched an important victory in his Cage Warriors debut in October with a decision victory over Alberth Dias.
