Undefeated Cage Warriors bantamweight champion [autotag]Jack Cartwright[/autotag] will put his title on the line in the co-main event of Cage Warriors 121 in London.
Manchester’s Cartwright (9-0), who captured the title with back-to-back first-round knockout victories in one night at Cage Warriors Unplugged 2 in 2019, has since defended his title twice in 2020 with victories over Manuel Bilic and Gerardo Fanny at Cage Warriors 112 and 115, respectively.
Now the SBG Manchester fighter will look to complete his third straight title defense when he faces Polish submission specialist [autotag]Sylwester Miller[/autotag] (9-3), who arrives in Cage Warriors riding a two-fight winning streak, with an extended run of form that has seen him lose just once in his past eight outings. Six of his nine career wins have come via submission.

The matchup will be joined on the card by a middleweight bout, with former Cage Warriors 185-pound champion [autotag]James Webb[/autotag] (8-2-1) looking to continue his winning form since losing the title to Nathias Frederick at Cage Warriors 111 in 2019. Webb has fought twice since that defeat and picked up a pair of dominant victories. He earned a landslide decision win over Mick Stanton at Cage Warriors 112, then followed up with a first-round arm-triangle choke finish of Craig White at Cage Warriors 115.
Now Webb will look to make it three wins in a row against [autotag]Matthew Bonner[/autotag] (8-6-1), who is also on a two-fight winning streak, thanks to victories over George Smith and former welterweight title challenger Matt Inman.
Cage Warriors 121 takes place Friday, March 19 at York Hall, London. The event streams live on UFC Fight Pass.
With the additions, the lineup for Cage Warriors 121 includes:
- Agy Sardari vs. Mehdi Ben Lakhdar – for lightweight title
- Jack Cartwright vs. Sylwester Miller – for bantamweight title
- Matthew Bonner vs. James Webb
