http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2011/7/9/2267674/cage-warriors-43-live-stream-results-previewWe may have to wait until the end of the month for the next major MMA card under the UFC - Strikeforce banner, but there's plenty of other events going on all the time around the world. If M1 didn't give you enough of a fix this weekend join me at 7 p.m. GT / 2 p.m. ET / 11 a.m. PT for live results and dicussion of Cage Warriors 43 from the HMV Forum in London, England.
Available to watch free online at the Cage Warriors website, the Cage Warriors Facebook, or right here on Bloody Elbow the event is headlined by UK No#11 ranked Middleweight Jack Mason taking on No#10 European ranked Middleweight Norman Paraisy. Paraisy is a French fighter who failed to win his preliminary match to get into the house on the 11th season of The Ultimate Figther and also lost to former UFC champion Dave Menne in a hotly contested Bellator FC match at Bellator 4 in 2009. However Paraisy is coming off the biggest win of his career after taking a decision victory against Paulo Filho at X-Combat Ultra in Brazil back in May.
Mason is a crowd pleasing fighter who aims to finish either by submission or Knockout. Having won 10 of his last 12 bouts Mason is coming off of a decision win at the end of April.
The co-main event sees the perfect 9-0 Joseph Duffy take on Francis Heagney in a lightweight scrap between two Irishmen. While Duffy was unable to make it on The Ultimate Fighter season 12 his professional record remains in tact and the 23 year old is building his experience and becoming a promising prospect. Heagney will be a good test for Duffy, winnins 3 of his last 4 fights and having beaten TUF 8 veterans Wes Murch, Brad Wheeler and current UKMMA champion Tim Radcliffe.
