Cage Fury FC returned to Florida on Friday for CFFC 126, setting up shop at the Florida State Fairgrounds Entertainment Hall.
With a bantamweight title fight planned for the evening’s main event, there was plenty of action to look forward to in Tampa.
Albania’s Vilson Ndregjoni put his 135lb belt up for grabs against Tariq Ismail in that headlining fight, with Ismail taking on the role as Snow Bird, originally hailing from Canada. A member of the famed TriStar gym in Montreal, Ismail was coming in off a win over UFC veteran Walei Watson, who had shared the cage with TJ Dillashaw, Cody Gibson, and Brett Johns, among others.
CFFC 126 takes place live on Friday, October 13, 2023 streaming live on UFC Fight Pass. Full results from the event can be found below. Prelims start at 7PM, with main card action getting underway at 9PM ET.
