It’s fight week in Rome, the second of a pair of back to back CW offerings as we sprint towards the last legs of the 2025 world tour! Europe’s Leading MMA Organisation is back at the PalaPellicone, with a huge middleweight title fight and a host of up and coming Italian talent taking to the cage on what is set to be a banner night for the scene!
In the main event, Italian fan favourite Dario Bellandi is back in action, looking to complete another successful defence of his middleweight world championship. ‘Neanderthal’ will be vying for defence number three of the strap he first won in late 2023, and thinks that an emphatic stoppage will be enough to earn him a call up to the UFC.
Who better to test his mettle then than a UFC veteran? Brazil’s Claudio Ribeiro will look to give his home nation their second CW champion, and with an impressive 100% KO rate across 13 professional victories, he has all the tools to silence what will be a heavily partisan crowd.
Also on the bill, Daniele Scatizzi makes his debut in the Famous Yellow Gloves, while fan favourites Nicolò Solli, Luca Borando and Dylan Hazan return to entertain the home crowd.
