Following his successful light-heavyweight debut in October, former BAMMA Lonsdale champion, Stuart Austin (11-3) is set to return at Contenders EA 18 on Saturday, February 25, The Sprawl can exclusively reveal.
Fresh from his first round dismantling of Nills van Noord at Euro FC last year, Bellator veteran Austin (#10 Ranked UK) is looking to continue to rise through the ranks at 205lbs.
Standing in his way will be fellow Bellator vet, Przemyslaw Mysiala (20-9-1). Mysiala (#8 Ranked UK) is undefeated in his last five outings, with only one bout going to the judge’s scorecards.
Also on the card is recent Cage Warriors title challenger, Adam Boussif (9-5). Unsuccessful in his attempt to claim the CWFC belt, Boussif looked to bounce back against former UFC fighter, Liping Zhang in September, only to lose a second successive bout by way of submission.
Boussif faces Frenchman, Ylies Djiroun (11-4), who is currently riding a six-fight win streak. Djiroun has previously competed in the Contenders cage twice, picking up the notable scalps of Jeremy Petley and Rick Selvarajah – both by way of guillotine choke.
Contenders EA 18 takes place on February 25, at the Norfolk Showground Arena.
