Cage Warriors prepare to stage one of their strongest cards of the year this weekend, with fighters from all corners of Europe meeting in Birmingham to weigh in for CW109.

Lightweight champion Jai Herbert tipped the scales at 154.7 lbs for his first defence against Californian UFC veteran Cain Carrizosa (155 lbs).

‘The Cannon’ issued a statement after hitting championship weight: 

“In 3 years I’ve gone from being dropped from another promotion for not selling enough tickets, to now winning a world title and headlining a card in front of thousands of fans. 

“I’m in the spotlight now and it’s time to prove I belong here. The Cage Warriors title has sent so many guys to the UFC, and I’m next.”

Will a big win send Herbert himself to the biggest stage of all, or can Carrizosa add Cage Warriors gold to his collection, derail the hometown hero and make it back to the UFC himself?

Saturday night has the answers.

In the co-main event, former champion Dean Trueman (145.5 lbs) takes on surging French contender Morgan Charrière (135.6 lbs) in one of the most anticipated non-title bouts of the year.

The card also features an appearance from former title challenger Brian Bouland, who takes on Birmingham native Chris Miah.
