Cage Warriors crowned a hat-trick of new champions, with new flyweight, bantamweight, interim featherweight belt-holders added to the promotion’s roll of honour this past weekend.

London’s iconic York Hall in Bethnal Green played host to the promotion’s latest “Trilogy” series, with Cage Warriors 127, 128 and 129 serving up three back-to-back nights of action, with a new champion crowned on each night.

Thursday, September 30 saw a new king take the throne at 135 pounds, as Dominique Wooding produced a superb come-from-behind performance to defeat the previously undefeated Nathan Fletcher to capture the vacant bantamweight belt at Cage Warriors 127.

Friday, October 1 then saw Ireland’s Paul Hughes set up a tantalising rematch with newly-crowned featherweight champion Jordan Vucenic by defeating French star Morgan Charriere via majority decision at Cage Warriors 128 to claim interim featherweight gold.

The third and final night of the Trilogy, Saturday, October 2, saw longtime contender Sam Creasey finally capture Cage Warriors championship gold with a third round guillotine choke submission of former champion Luke Shanks in the main event of Cage Warriors 129.

Creasey had previously unsuccessfully challenged for the title twice, but he made it third time lucky with a decisive finish to capture the gold and put himself at the top of the flyweight tree on this side of the pond.

Cage Warriors has a long-established reputation for producing talent that has transitioned to the world stage, and Wooding, Hughes and Creasey will all have dreams of UFC or Bellator stardom after capturing their respective belts.
