On Saturday October 27, at St David’s Hall in Cardiff, Wales, it’s time for Cage Warriors 49.
The main event is Bruno Carvalho (14-5) vs Cathal Pendred (10-2-1).
Carvalho has won nine of his past 10 bouts over a stretch of three and a half years, with his lone loss coming against former DREAM champion and current Bellator fighter Marius Zaromskis in absolutely must see and brutal fight… four stars for one of the best mma KO of 2011: somersault kick (!!!), elbow and punches!
Pendred hopes to remain undefeated under the Cage Warriors banner and is 4-0-1 in his past five fights.
Cathal ‘The Punisher’ Pendred (overall 10-2-1) had the biggest win of his career on June 2, 2012, defeating experienced UFC and Pride veteran David Bielkheden.
Lightweights Greg Loughran (22-18) vs Tim Newman (8-3) is the co-main event.
Greg ‘The Hitman’ Loughran has rebounded from six straight losses (including Eddie Alvarez) to win four in a row, defeating fighters as UFC and “TUF” veterans Andre Winner and Jonathan Brookins.
Tim ‘Super Human’ Newman returns to Cage Warriors after a 10-second knockout against Grzegorz Tredowski at Cage Warriors 42. This past December, he lost by unanimous decision to UFC vet Curt Warburton at BAMMA 8.
