Cage Warriors Fighting Championship caps off a busy weekend of back-to-back events with Cage Warriors 136, which will see the middleweight title up for grabs.

The main event will see Djati Melan defend his 185-pound strap against Christian Leroy Duncan. While both headliners made championship weight, two undercard fighters did not as both Luke Riley and Manny Akpan came in heavy for their respective bouts. Both men have been fined percentages of their respective purses, and the matches will otherwise continue as scheduled.

Melan has been perfect in his professional mixed martial arts career, amassing eight wins without a single defeat. He most recently claimed the title after winning a unanimous decision over Matthew Bonner. His first defense comes against Duncan, a fellow unbeaten fighter at 5-0 who has won all five under the Cage Warriors banner. The champion stepped on the scale at 183.5 pounds, while the challenger weighed 184 pounds to make the headliner official.

Cage Warriors 136 will air live on UFC Fight Pass on Saturday, with the main card starting at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT, and prelims kicking off at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT.
