Cage Warriors – CW 206: Unplugged will take place on Friday, June 19, 2026. You can catch all the live MMA action exclusively on UFC Fight Pass! This card continues the promotion’s tradition of showcasing top European talent on the path to global recognition.
Cage Warriors was founded in 2001 by Dougie Truman, with its first event held in London in July 2002. The promotion later came under Graham Boylan’s leadership in 2010, and public records show Boylan also re-acquired the brand in 2015 after a turbulent hiatus. Cage Warriors has become one of Europe’s most important MMA development leagues, particularly in the UK and Ireland, and it is known for building fighters toward the next level rather than trying to compete directly with global giants. Its enduring value is that it has remained a true European ladder system for mixed martial arts.
