This month’s Cage Warriors 85 event has a trio of new additions.
Officials today announced the bouts, which include middleweights Lee Chadwick (22-13-1) vs. Andy Manzolo (15-5).
Cage Warriors 85 takes place June 24 at O2 Academy in Bournemouth, England, and the event streams on UFC Fight Pass.
Chadwick, a 32-year-old Englishman, is on a 3-1 run following a recent submission victory over Tommy Quinn at Cage Warriors 82.

He meets Manzolo, a 32-year-old Estonian fighter who fights for Cage Warriors for the first since 2014. He’s currently on a 4-1 run that included a submission win – his ninth in 15 career victories – over Shaun Lomas (21-68) at a regional show in England.
Other new bouts include featherweights Danny Randolph (1-0) vs. Hughie O’Rourke (0-1) and female featherweight Leah McCourt (0-0), who’s also an IMMAF amateur world champion, vs. Rizlen Zoua (0-0), a judo Olympian for France.
