Cage Warriors returns to Manchester this weekend with the lightweight championship on the line in the main event of the evening.

The BEC Arena plays host to the event, with the promotion’s 155-pound title set to be contested in the headline bout, as reigning lightweight champion George Hardwick puts his belt on the line against Yann Liasse.

Also set for action are Liverpool’s surging contender Adam Cullen, who takes on debuting Dumitru Girlean, while Andy Clamp takes on Ghassan Abdenabi. There’s also a mouth-watering rematch as Scotland’s former title challenger Chris Bungard takes on former foe Gavin Hughes.

The co-main event has been reshuffled, with Dutch contender Daan Duijs taking on Nathan Fletcher in a bantamweight bout, while Luke Riley will face a new opponent in his featherweight bout. His planned opponent, Alexander Loof, has been ruled out of the event through injury, with undefeated US-based Brit Kallum Parker stepping in looking to make a statement.

The full fight card has been confirmed for the event, which takes place Saturday, April 15. The event streams live on UFC Fight Pass.
