Cage Warriors 92 Results: Wood flattens Iovine in 50 seconds
Cage Warriors returned to the capital on Saturday night for Cage Warriors 92: Super Saturday at Indigo at the O2 Arena in London. The atmosphere in the arena was electric with three title fights across two stacked main cards.
Cage Warriors Bantamweight Nathaniel Wood vs. Luca Iovine
Cage Warriors bantamweight champion Nathaniel “The Prospect” Wood successfully defended his title against Luca Iovine in the main event of the night. Wood (13-3) took 50 seconds to absolutely flatten Iovine in the first round. The Team Titan product knocked Iovine off balance with heavy low kicks that had the Italian struggling to keep his footing. The pair exchanged blows inside the pocket at a quick pace before The Prospect landed a crushing left hook flush on the Italian’s jaw that shut his lights out before he even hit the canvas.
Hearing the roar of approval from the London crowd proved that Cage Warriors has a bonafide star on their hands in Nathaniel Wood. The fans at the Indigo were chanting “UFC” during the post-fight celebrations, let’s hope UFC president Dana White is listening.
