Europe’s Cage Warriors promotion has established itself as one of the top, talent pipelines for the UFC, and its latest card featured another fighter who could be headed to the Octagon soon, Mason Jones.
Jones remains undefeated and takes CW’s lightweight crown
Jones was booked to challenge Joe McColgan in the card’s co-headliner, and for the vacant 155 pound belt, as a result of going 8-0 to date.
As you can see by watching the clip below, Jones ended the fight in pretty memorable fashion, as he finished McColgan in round one with a booming knee and follow-up punches.
