Tudor Leonte Dec 10, 2020
Missed weight.. fight is still on. 5 hours and only lost a 1 pound. Don’t know what happened. No excuses. I apologise to Decky and his team and Cage warriors. Just wasn’t happening today.

On Thursday morning, Cage Warriors Fighting Championship held the weigh-ins for its second of three back-to-back events, CW 118.
In the main event, Nathias Frederick (8-2-1) will attempt to defend his middleweight championship for the first time. “Notorious” won the title by finishing James Webb at the tail end of the fourth round at CW 111. His first shot at Webb’s belt ended by majority draw following a 25-minute back-and-forth battle at CW 106. Frederick had no issues in making the championship weight as he recorded 183.8 pounds on the scale.
