Cage Warriors Fighting Championship welterweight titleholder Cathal Pendred (13-2-1) didn’t get a chance to defend his title as a result of opponent Che Mills (15-6) missing weight, but he did get to take one step closer toward his dream of fighting in the UFC. Pendred earned a third-round stoppage over Mills in the main event of Saturday’s Cage Warriors 55 card, which took place at The Helix in Dublin, Ireland. The night’s main card streamed on MMAjunkie.com. Pendred wasted little time in the opening round pushing into a clinch and looking for a takedown. Mills defended against the cage but was eventually brought to the floor. When he popped back up, Pendred tried to snatch a guillotine as he fell to his back. Mills eventually pulled free, but Pendred kept him from capitalizing on top position and quickly returned to the feet. Pendred scored another takedown late in the frame and briefly advanced to mount
