Cage Warriors 120 Weigh-in Results: All Fighters Hit Contracted Marks

Cage Warriors Fighting Championship will kick off it latest event trilogy with an event on Thursday.

The Cage Warriors 120 main event will see the promotional debut of Bellator MMA veteran Kent Kauppinen (12-6). The 29-year old Englishman alternated defeats and victories in his latest cage appearances, scoring a spectacular KO at the expense of Ultimate Fighting Championship alum Alessio Sakara and submitting Andy Manzolo but also dropping a couple of decisions to Melvin Manhoef and Will Fleury. Kauppinen looked good on the scale Wednesday, as he weighed at 185.4 pounds.

It will be up to Jamie Richardson (9-6) to welcome Kauppinen in his first foray under the CW banner. “Young Gun” is looking to get back on track after losing his chance to capture the middleweight championship when Nathias Frederick put him out of his senses 18 seconds into the third round at CW 118. Richardson had no issues in hitting the scale at 184.9 pounds.

In the co-main event, James Hendin (5-0) will take on Paul Hughes (6-1) in a featherweight contest. Hendin will attempt to keep his record unblemished after edging Kris Edwards via unanimous decision in his latest appearance, while Hughes looks to resettle himself after dropping a narrow decision to Jordan Vucenic at CW 119. Both fighters made the contracted weight as Hendin weighed in at 144.6 pounds and Hughes at 145.7 pounds.

Cage Warriors 120 airs live on UFC Fight Pass on Thursday at 3:15 p.m. ET/12:15 p.m. PT.
