Cage Warriors has a new Irish champion. In today’s Cage Warriors 81 headliner, Belfast’s Karl Moore (8-1) scored a decision victory over American counterpart Josh Clark (10-4) to claim the organization’s vacant light-heavyweight title. The event took place at 3Arena in Dublin, and the main card streamed on UFC Fight Pass. Moore, a 2-1 favorite heading into the bout, used a patient strategy bolstered by counter-punches, overall ground control and the occasional firefight to top “The Hillbilly Heartthrob.” Clark, perhaps best known for his short run on “The Ultimate Fighter 19,” fought off rear-naked chokes at the end of both the first and second rounds
