With just over 24 hours to go until Cage Warriors makes its debut in the PalaPellicone, the CW 179 athletes hit the scales at the Rome Hilton on Friday morning.

Final remaining tickets for CW 179 are available here!

In the evening’s main event, former Cage Warriors champion Stefano Paterno will look to make it six in a row when he faces Brazilian bulldozer Jorge Bueno.

Paterno came in slightly under the 175lb limit at 174.2lbs, however Bueno tipped the scales at 175.8lbs and was unable to lose further weight. The bout will go ahead as planned, with Bueno forfeiting a percentage of his purse.

Originally scheduled to compete in a lightweight contest, Simone Patrizi (159.2lbs) and Konstantinos Ntelis (159.4lbs) will now meet at a pre-agreed catchweight of 160lbs.

Antonio Marcos Souza (150.3lbs) came in over the contracted limit for his featherweight bout with Pietro Mochetti (144.6lbs). With the Brazilian unwilling to cut further weight, Mochetti’s team opted not to take the fight, and the bout is cancelled.

With all other athletes hitting their marks successfully, CW 179 will proceed with 16 fights.
