In his quest for the belt Jim Alers relinquished, Enlund (10-2-0-1NC) holds a 4-1 record since joining CWFC. Despite a loss to Martin McDonough in his bantamweight debut, Enlund has looked extremely impressive at 145, chalking up a three-fight win-streak over the likes of: Sebastian Romanowski, Danny Lawson, and most recently Artem Lobov at CWFC 65 in Dublin earlier this year.
“Fighting for the CWFC world title is an absolutely massive opportunity for me,” Enlund said. “Winning this belt, especially in front of a home crowd at the Metro Radio Arena, would be a huge achievement.
Narimani (7-1), although having only made his professional debut just over three years ago, holds notab;le victories against Marcin Wrzosek and Karsten Lenjoint. The only loss on the 27-year-old's resume is a split decision to Graham Turner in July 2013.
However first-round submissions over previously-undefeated pair Theo Michailidis and Benjamin Brander, has put him back in the title hunt.
Narimani, who hails from Bristol, said: “This is a huge event and opportunity for me, and I’m proud to be getting this chance to show what I can really do against a very highly-ranked opponent."
The first of Cage Warriors 73‘s televised main cards will begin at 6pm local time on Saturday, November 1, before the second kicks off at 9pm. Further details will be announced shortly.
