Jack Shore Retains Cage Warriors Bantamweight Title At CW 104
Cage Warriors Fighting Championship stopped at
the Violet Arena in Cardiff, Wales, on Saturday for CW 104.
The main event of the card featured a bantamweight title fight, with Welsh hero Jack Shore putting his belt and his spotless record on the line. Scottish challenger Scott Malone put up a valiant fight, but in the end the champion managed to keep his title. “Tank” secured a slick rear-naked choke at 2:28 of the third stanza. In defending his belt, Shore extended his perfect record to 10-0, the last nine in CWFC, and it may be time for the 24-year-old to join the major leagues of MMA.
In a welterweight contest, Jamie Richardson smashed Phil Wells in the third stanza of their second encounter. The rematch went a little longer than the first bout between these fighters, but the outcome was the same. Referee Marc Goddard stopped the contest at 4:23, after Richardson unleashed all his striking power against the opponent in a sensational sequence.
Elsewhere, Cory McKenna submitted Fannie Redman via rear-naked choke after two rounds of battle in the strawweight division. In the opening bout of the main card, local fighter Kris Edwards bested Scotsman Josh Abraham via unanimous decision, snapping a two-bout losing streak.
