The two men assuming the unexpected headlining role at the upcoming
Cage Warriors Fighting Championship card had no
issue making things official.
At the beginning of the week, the CW
139 headliner was set to be a 155-pound affair between Erick
Sanchez and Max
Rohskopf. As Sanchez withdrew due to Covid-19 on Tuesday,
Jordan
Bailey vs. Alex
Trinidad also at lightweight has been promoted to the top
billing on the marquee. Bailey (6-5, 0-1 CW) is currently looking
to get back in the win column following back-to-back defeats. The
MMA Gold Fight Team standout is 1-4 in his last five assignments,
but he professionally hit the scales at 155.3 pounds.
Bellator MMA alum Trinidad (5-3, 0-1 CW) is
pursuing his first promotional victory after tapping to a Brandon
Laroco rear-naked choke at CW 126 in August. βThe Ice Cream
Manβ has picked up wins in two of his last three fights, and he too
had no problem on the scales, weighing in at 155.9 pounds.
A pair of fighters failed to make weight ahead of the event: Light
heavyweight Elijah
Harris (207) weighed one pound heavy for his contracted
205-pound clash with Armando
Murillo, while William
Wilson (157.1) clocked in 1.1 pounds overweight for his
professional debut against Albert Lee
at lightweight.
Cage Warriors 139 goes down on Friday at Humphreys by the Bay in
San Diego, Calif., and it streams live on UFC Fight Pass at 8:45
