As previously announced, the vacant bantamweight title is up for grabs in the headliner.
Nathaniel Wood (10-3), a London-based fighter who’s on a 4-1 run, takes on Switzerland’s Marko Kovacevic (9-1), who brings an eight-fight winning streak into his Cage Warriors debut, for the 135-pound title.
In the co-headliner, light heavyweight Norman Paraisy (15-4-2), who hasn’t fought since a June 2014 submission loss to Jack Hermansson at middleweight, takes on Kenneth Bergh (5-0), a Norwegian who has five first-round wins in five career victories, with four straight wins coming via submission.
The lineup features five main-card bouts and seven prelims.
