Cage Warriors, one of the top promotions in European MMA and where the likes of Conor McGregor, Cathal Pendred, Neil Seery and Aisling Daly developed their talents before the UFC came calling, will stage an event in the capital on Saturday, 4 March.
The night will mark a long-awaited return to Ireland for Cage Warriors after a three-year absence, and Belfast fighter Karl Moore will compete for the vacant light-heavyweight title.
Meanwhile, Cork featherweight Lloyd Manning has been pencilled in to face Scotland’s Paul McBain, while lightweight Joe McColgan and Limerick native Catherine Costigan are also set to be in action.
“I’m both proud and excited to be heading back to Ireland for Cage Warriors 81,” said Cage Warriors president Graham Boylan.
“As a proud Irishman myself, I’ve always been committed to the growth of mixed martial arts in Ireland, and CW 81 represents the latest opportunity for Irish MMA to shine on the big stage."
