Steve Aimable on Cage Warriors title shot: ‘It’s time for people to stop underestimating me!’

For years, Steve Aimable has flown under the radar on the UK scene whilst building up a solid head of steam, quietly putting a nice run of results together. At Cage Warriors 111 on Friday night, the man known as ‘Diddy Kong’ will look to spring a huge upset and cement himself in the promotion’s history books by claiming its prestigious featherweight title.

The performance which earned Aimable (14-5) a crack at the belt occurred at Cage Warriors 95 back in May when he took on the exciting prospect, Aidan Stephen. During the first two rounds, both men held their own on the feet and they both put a high pace on one another.
