Cage Warriors just returned with a stacked card at the 3Arena in Dublin.

In the main event we saw a welterweight title unification fight between champion Rhys McKee and interim champion Jim Wallhead. The champion Mckee fought a good fight won via TKO (corner stoppage) in round four.

In the featherweight co-main event, Sweden’s KO king Tobias ”Bad Intention” Harila lived up to his name as he returned to action to face the undefeated hometown hero Ryan Shelley.

In the third round, the heavy-hitting Harila rocked his oppenent with a right punch and followed up with a knee which forced the referee to stop the fight.

This was the Swede’s second straight KO win, as he finished Damon Wilson on the Cage Warriors New Year’s Eve card.

Tobias Harila is dangerous until the end 😮 A 3rd round KO in the books!
They call him Bad Intention for a reason 🤡
