Cage Warriors 113 takes place March 20 at indigo at The O2 in London. The card streams on UFC Fight Pass. The next day, the UFC visit The 02 for UFC on ESPN+ 29.
Nathan Jones
Jones was the Cage Warriors “Fight of the Year” in voting done by the promotion’s fans in 2019. The 24-year-old Welshman went 2-0 in 2019 with decision wins over Donovan Desmae and Aleksi Mantykivi. In 2018, he went 4-0 with three wins by stoppage.
Italy’s Belluardo will be Jones’ most experienced opponent yet. After a six-fight winning streak, he signed with the UFC in 2019. But he lost both his fights with the promotion by TKO to Joel Alvarez and Mark Madsen. Now he’ll try to snap his skid in his Cage Warriors debut.
The Cage Warriors 113 lineup includes:
Samir Faiddine vs. Luke Shanks – for flyweight title
