Friday night’s Cage Warriors 113 card has undergone more late-notice changes. Travel restrictions in the region due to the ongoing global coronavirus outbreak have forced three fights to be removed from the event, which has been moved from London’s indigo at The O2 to Manchester’s BEC Arena. The event will be streamed live worldwide on UFC Fight Pass. The previously scheduled interim featherweight title fight between Morgan Charriere and Darko Banovic , as well as a flyweight title fight between champ Samir Faiddine and Luke Shanks , are both now off, as is the rearranged UFC London bout between John Phillips and Dusko Todorovic .

The midweek fight card changes are the latest in a long line of hurdles the Cage Warriors team, led by Graham Boylan, has had to clear in order to keep their event alive.
