The much-anticipated bout between Paddy Pimblett and Joe Giannetti will not happen at Cage Warriors 111 after all.
James Webb hit the scales at 184.3 pounds as he looks to defend his middleweight title against Nathius Frederick (184). The two first fought at Cage Warriors 106, in Webb’s first title defense, and the bout was ruled a majority draw. In the co-main attraction, Modestas Bukauskas (203) puts his light heavyweight belt on the line against Riccardo Nosiglia (203.4).
Cage Warriors 111 which airs live on UFC Fight Pass at 4 p.m. ET on Friday, Nov. 22, also features Mads Burnell (144.5) vs. Steve Aimable (145.2)*. The matchup was expected to be for the featherweight title, but as Aimable came in .2 pounds over the championship limit, it will now be a three-round non-title fight. Opening up the main card is a welterweight scrap between Alex Lohore (170.7) and Joilton Lutterbach (170.6).
The bout between Pimblett (154.9) and Giannetti (163.7) was scratched after Giannetti missed weight by 7.7 pounds. The American took the fight on just 10 days’ notice, and claimed on social media he started his weight cut north of 185 pounds.
