How did you score it?!#CW128 pic.twitter.com/NHH9HMwaFz

— Cage Warriors (@CageWarriors) October 1, 2021 Proud Irish and French fans packed the York Hall in London for the second segment of this Cage Warriors Fighting Championship trilogy series. The CW 128 headliner saw Paul Hughes (8-1, 5-1 CW) throw down with Morgan Charriere (16-9-1, 3-3 CW) in a barnburner for the interim featherweight championship. Both contenders shined brightly in the first stanza, but the Frenchman scored the more precise shots. Charriere intelligently protected himself from damage, and ended the round dramatically with a big judo throw shortly before the bell. The second round was very close, as the Australian-born fighter fought off a guillotine choke attempt and retaliated with crisp punches. Hughes gained momentum after wobbling “The Last Pirate” with a heavy combination in the third frame. The Fight Academy Ireland standout dragged his opponent t…

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJgwukbD5p0&w=560&h=315] The 911 call leading to former Ultimate Fighting Championship champ Jon Jones’ latest arrest sheds a little light on the scene.

On Friday, audio of the call to the police from Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas has been released regarding Jon Jones. The call was obtained by MMA Fighting, and it chronicles the communication from Caesar’s Palace security to the authorities about Jones’ alleged domestic violence offense on fiancée Jessie Moses. Jones was arrested last Friday for battery domestic violence, a misdemeanor, and tampering or damaging a vehicle to cause damage in excess of $5,000, a felony.

Since then, details have emerged that in addition to an alleged unseen altercation between Jones and Moses in their hotel room, Jones was picked up for headbutting a police car. Regarding the incident with Moses, the security officer, Eduardo, told the 911 dispatch officer that a bloodied Moses came down to the mai…

ESPN broke the news on Thursday night that Sean O'Malley (14-1) will likely be returning to action on Dec. 11 at UFC 269 against Raulian Paiva (21-3) at bantamweight. The matchup has not been made official as the contracts have yet to be signed. On a subsequent Twitch broadcast, per MMA reporter Alex Behunin shortly after the story came out, O’Malley claimed that he had no knowledge of the booking and that it came as a surprise to him.

Should the fight come to fruition, it would be O’Malley’s third in 2021. He knocked Thomas Almeida out in March, and then came back to decimate Kris Moutinho in July to lift his career finish rate to 79%. The victories served as a successful rebound from his first defeat since turn…

Sign up for ESPN+ right here, and you can then stream the UFC live on your smart TV, computer, phone, tablet or streaming device via the ESPN app. It may come as a shock that these two grizzled veterans with 44 combined Ultimate Fighting Championship appearances have never crossed paths. The UFC added a featherweight matchup on its event lineup to the upcoming UFC Fight Night card on Dec. 18 on Thursday. With 20 UFC fights or more apiece, Cub Swanson (27-12) and Darren Elkins (26-9) had never faced one another, and the two will throw down at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

For the first time in over a decade, Swanson fell to strikes when he faced Giga Chikadze in May. The Georgian finished Swanson with a body kick and follow-up punches in 63 seconds to put an end to Swanson’s first win streak since 2017. Before beating Kron Gracie and Daniel Pineda in 2019 and 2020, respectively, “Killer Cub” had dropped four straight bouts to Brian Ortega, Frankie Edgar, Renato Carneiro and Sha…

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wx9bHNMQVXY&w=640&h=360] Bellator MMA's return to England is officially on as the Bellator 267 weigh-ins largely went on without any issues. Twenty-four fighters on the card, including headliners Douglas Lima and Michael Page, made weight for the event. However, a bout between Benjamin Brander and Charlie Leary was pulled due to COVID-19 protocols.

The former welterweight champion is currently riding a two-fight losing streak after coming up short against Gegard Mousasi at middleweight and dropping his title to Yaroslav Amosov in June. Lima (32-9) hadn't lost two straight bouts since 2009, and will look to bounce back against a familiar foe in Page (19-1), whom he viciously knocked out in their first meeting two years ago. Lima officially weighed 169.4 pounds for the bout.

Looking to avenge his lone defeat is Page. The 34-year-old has bounced back in style with five straight wins, four of which were finishes. He most recently de…

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQzEfqrYB0c&w=560&h=315] Former Bellator MMA welterweight champ Douglas Lima may be around even money going into his rematch with Michael Page, but many expect the result will be the same as their first meeting.

At Bellator 267 on Friday in the SSE Arena in London, American Top Team product Lima (32-9) rematches boisterous Brit Page (19-1) atop the card. Already in London to be in Lima’s corner, Lima’s coach Roan Carneiro spoke to Sherdog about the climate of revenge in the hometown of “MVP.”

“MVP were pretty respectful in the first meetings we had,” Carneiro noted, “a natural attitude from someone who got knocked out in the first fight, but we know he will change when we start to have events open to the public.”

The organization, which will be staging the card on Showtime in the U.S. and the BBC iPlayer for British crowds, has put a lot into building up the crowd for U.K. audiences. The coach was quite impressed by the quantity…

On Wednesday night, MMA Fighting was the first to report the bantamweight matchup between Munhoz (19-6, 1 NC) and Dominick Cruz (23-3) at UFC 269. Per the report, one that was later confirmed by other outlets, the two have agreed to their Dec. 11 meeting but the contracts have not been signed. Should it come to fruition, Munhoz and Cruz are expected to face off inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Munhoz has lost three of four, with defeats coming to current bantamweight king Aljamain Sterling as well as ex-lightweight champ Frankie Edgar and former featherweight titleholder Jose Aldo. Along the way, he won a thrilling rematch against Jimmie Rivera to even their record to one and one against one another. In his last five appearances, “The Young Punisher” has captured…

As the 2021 Professional Fighters League campaign draws to a close, it appears that big things are in store for the promotion in the year to come.

During a press conference on Wednesday to promote the PFL Championship on Oct. 27, CEO Peter Murray alluded to several new “properties” on tap for the organization in 2022. Those include what sounds like the PFL’s first foray into pay-per-view as well as something similar to what Dana White’s Contender Series does for the UFC in terms of bringing new talent into the promotion.

“Not only are we excited about the upcoming championship, we’re excited about the 2022 season ahead,” Murray said. “We’ll expand our season events, but in addition to that we’re gonna launch new properties. The PFL will be launching a new pay-per-view division and a lineup of events. We’ll also launch the new PFL Challenger Series for pro fighters aspiring to get into the PFL season form…

Former Bellator MMA featherweight queen Julia Budd has signed with Professional Fighters League.

Budd will make her promotional debut at the PFL Championship against an as yet to be announced opponent at the Seminole Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla., on Oct. 27. The PFL announced the addition of Budd during a press conference on Wednesday afternoon. It is currently unclear if Budd will compete at 155 pounds or if the organization will add a featherweight divison for the upcoming season.

“The Jewel” reigned as 145-pound champion in Bellator from 2017 to 2020 before relinquishing the crown to Cristiane Justino at Bellator 238. Budd has since rebounded from that defeat to post triumphs over Jessy Miele and Dayana Silva in her final two promotional appearances.
