Cage Warriors Fighting Championship appears to be seriously
cracking down on those that miss weight, handing down a 50% purse
fine for one heavy competitor.
CW 156 is headlined by a fight between Darren
Stewart and Matthew
Bonner. Both middleweights successfully made weight for the
main event. All other fighters on the nine-fight card hit their
proper marks except for Marcondes
Bastos, who came in at 146.5 pounds for his featherweight fight
against Milad
Ahady. The fight will continue, although Bastos was fined half
of his purse.
