The defending champion proved once again that he is one of the hottest prospects in Europe right now and put a ton of pressure on his opponent as soon as the match started. Eventually, Herbert (10-1) landed a huge knee that sent his opponent out cold to the canvas, prompting referee Rich Mitchell to stop the action at 3:26 of the first stanza. Herbert is now riding a six-bout winning streak and could be drawing interest from the UFC very soon.

The co-main event featured a featherweight clash between Dean Trueman and Morgan Charriere. It took three rounds to the Frenchman to solve the English enigma, but eventually Charriere (15-7-1) crushed his opponent via TKO at the 1:08 mark of the final stanza. After losing a majority decision in his first fight in Cage Warriors, the French fighter is now on a two-bout winning streak.
Elsewhere, Christopher Miah (9-2) edged Brian Bouland via unanimous decision in their bantamweight encounter. In a 145-pound clash, Perry Goodwin (9-7) defeated Sameer Alekozai via unanimous decision. In the first fight on the main card, middleweight contender Mick Stanton (6-3) submitted Michael Younis via rear-naked choke at the 3:54 mark of the second stanza.
