Warrior Promotions UK MMA limited are proud to announce the main event at Cage Warriors: Enter The Rough House 6 will be a Welterweight division clash between the Cage Warriors Under 73kg (161lbs) World Champion Dan “The Outlaw” Hardy (17-6-0-1nc) and the 2005 European Vale Tudo -76kg winner Mattias Awad (4-1-0)
v
Dan "The Outlaw" Hardy (17-6-0-1) vs. Mattias Awad (4-1-0)
Dan Hardy returns to Nottingham and faces another tough fight against
the Swedish submission specialist Mattias
Awad in the main event of Cage Warriors: Enter The Rough House on April
19th. Hardy who is already lined up to face the two-time UFC veteran
Chad Reiner at Cage Warriors USA on March 29th, has decided to take
advantage of a trip home to the UK to take another fight against one of
Europe's best Welterweights.
Facing Hardy, is Mattias Awad who is know for his submission skills,
durability and patience, which has seen him claim wins over the likes
of Daniel Weichel, Mario Stapel,
Mohamed Khacha and Fabricio Nascimento. These fighters are all known
for being some of the toughest fighters in Europe but were undone by
Awad's wide variety of skills. Awad is also famous for winning the the
2005 European Vale Tudo
-76kg Grand Prix by TKO'ing Mohamed Khacha and submitting the BJJ Black
Belt Fabricio Nascimento in the Final.
However Awad has spent some time away due to injuries but still remains
one of Europe's best 77kg fighters and with his vast submission
grappling and Shootfighting background, he will test Hardy's famed
submission defense to the limit in what should be another Cage Warriors
classic on April 19th.
v
Andre Winner (9-1-0) vs. Bendy Casimir (10-4-2)
This has all the makings of a very exiting fight between two "Top 10"
ranked
European light weights. This will be a classic striker/grappler clash.
Will Andre be able to put a stop to Bendy Casimir's 7
fight winning streak? Or will bendy show why he is one of Europe's
most underrated fighters by defeating the FX3 Lightweight Champion on
April 19th.
Finally another featured bout which has just been confirmed sees local
favorite Wayne Buck (3-0-0) take on Steve Murphy (2-0-0). Both men are
known for their striking and a big KO could easily happen when these two unbeaten heavyweights meet.
