Robert Whiteford will make his Cage Warriors debut in his native Scotland on December 8.

ROBERT WHITEFORD and Chris Fishgold will square off in a featherweight bout when Cage Warriors visits Scotland for the first time on Saturday, December 8.

The pair will make their respective debuts for the organisation at Cage Warriors 50, which takes place at Kelvin Hall in Glasgow.

Whiteford (9-1), who hails from Armadale in Scotland, will be fighting for the first time since his stunning first-round TKO victory against top-ten-ranked European featherweight Martin Svensson in September.

The 29-year-old, now ranked as Europe’s number three featherweight, is on a nine-fight win streak and also holds a notable victory over Cage Warriors-contracted star Liam James.

Fishgold (7-0), who signed a five-fight contract with Cage Warriors this year, has established himself as a potential future star since making his professional debut two years ago.

Unbeaten Chris Fishgold will face his toughest challenge to date at Cage Warriors 50.

The 20-year-old, a member of the Next Generation camp, has picked up wins on prominent UK shows such as OMMAC and BAMMA.

His last outing saw him secure a second-round submission victory against Andy De-Vent just over 12 months ago. Six of Fishgold’s seven wins have come via submission.

Cage Warriors 50 will also feature the likes of former UFC competitor Aaron Wilkinson, as well as top Scottish-based pair Paul McVeigh and Graham Turner.

Further fight card and ticket details will be released next week. Keep track of Cage Warriors on Facebook and Twitter for the latest news and updates.
