Cage Warriors Fighting Championship’s third foray into California this year didn’t disappoint.
The CW 143 headliner on Friday in San Diego featured a lightweight clash between Erick Sanchez and James Lynch. Sanchez (11-6, 1-0 CW) pushed on the gas and connected with quick punches, which left a mark on his opponent’s face. In turn, Lynch (5-3, 3-2 CW) looked to stop Sanchez’s footwork with some leg kicks. The fighters engaged in a brief scramble on the canvas before bouncing back to their feet. Sanchez’s elusiveness paid off after the clash entered its second minute.
