It was announced yesterday by the promotion that Next Gen NI's Gaven 'Heamy' Kelly (7-5) will be in action in just over a week at Cage Warriors 99 on November 17 and his opponent will be England's Cory Tait (8-4).
Both men enter this contest having both lost their past two fights respectively. Kelly rejoined Cage Warriors off the back of a 4-1 run outside the promotion but suffered back-to-back TKO losses in the promotion.
This will be Tait's first fight in over two years. He lost to Finnish veteran Toni Tauru at Cage Warriors 72 before trying his hand in America where he suffered a decision loss in the Titan FC promotion.
It should be a closely contested fight as Kelly and Tait have the ability to end the fight with submissions or a TKO and both men have decision wins on their resume also.
SBG's Blaine O'Driscoll will challenge for the flyweight title in the Cage Warriors 99 main event.
