History


Cage Warriors was founded by Dougie Truman in 2001; the first event titled 'Armageddon', took place on July 27, 2002, and saw notable fighters like Jean Silva, Rosi Sexton, Matt Ewin and Paul Jenkins claim victories.[4]


Irishman Graham Boylan assumed control of Cage Warriors in 2010 and expanded the promotion’s reach to mainland Europe and Asia, staging shows in England, Ireland, Russia, Ukraine, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon and Bahrain.[5] The Cage Warriors head office is located in London.[6][7]


Following Cage Warriors 74 in November 2014 the promotion went into hiatus, with Boylan announcing his resignation as CEO in February 2015.


But in June 2015 Boylan announced on The MMA Hour he had acquired the promotion and would be bringing it back to prominence again.[8]


The promotion has since secured a digital broadcasting deal with the UFC to have its shows shown live across the world on UFC Fight Pass,[9] and has also brokered television broadcast deals with major broadcasters across Europe and Asia.
