European promotions return to the capital for the second time on Saturday night at Cage Warriors 108, featuring the region&#39;s next emerging stars. Jones heads out at Cardiff&#39;s Viola Arena with antagonist Aleksi Mantykivi, signaling at night that he is solidifying himself as the top lightweight title contender and ready to haul the torch of Cage Warriors from his hometown. .<\/p>\n<p id=\"v52Thg\">When Jones first started his martial arts journey a few years ago, his passion was always at the center and headed for MMA. Every step on the road he has walked so far is to build his skill base and equip him for a successful mixed martial arts career. Jones (7-0) has trained kickboxing, boxing, wrestling, judo and jiu-jitsu since he was young, and has not been in a hurry or go through this sport to reach the final goal faster. Walesman learned his skills and continues to complete each time he enters the cage to become the most complete and versatile martial artist we can.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p8WCFf\">Jones was the main stay of Cage Warriors and grew up within the promotion. He got his amateur experience through his &amp; # 39; academy series &amp; # 39; banner before making his professional debut while wearing the famous yellow gloves in October 2017. Jones defeated one of the toughest players in Cage Warriors&#39; list, Donovan Desmae, in April. He was really happy with the show and became convinced that he was on the track he thought years ago.<\/p>\n<p id=\"bhj8jK\">\u201cThe last fight with Desmae was the easiest fight of my career. \u201cThe game plan went well and some of the mistakes I reviewed were easy to fix. I accepted with further confirmation that in that fight I was more than able to win the best in the division. \u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"qh2SiZ\">The only three outings at the Viola Arena in Kay All Warrior were all headlines by the recently signed UFC bantamweight Jack Shore. The company helped foster the careers of colleagues Welshmen Jack Marshman and Brett Johns, and Jones believes he is destined to follow the UFC in his footsteps. <\/p>\n<p id=\"Pfvu9L\">Some suggest that certain fighters can put a lot of pressure on the battle night inside the cage, which should take up a large portion of the promotion around the show. But this is not to believe that Jones, who spent time in Team Alpha Male during this camp, will happen to him.<\/p>\n<p id=\"An8SzA\">\u201cExtra pressure? no. Added excitement? Sure! \u201dSaid Jones. \u201cWe are going to showcase this prominent show for the first time and look forward to taking it one step further. I can&#39;t wait to see that Jack Shore and others can carry the mantle that he carried before me. \u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"0t4GLV\">On Saturday night, Jones rides Finnish striker Alexey Manti Kiby (13-5), who wants to silence Cardiff&#39;s partisan crowd. He was familiar with the cage warriors crowd last year, facing Jack Grant, the promotional lightest product of last year, but it wasn&#39;t enough. Even without raising his hand, Mantykivi caused Grant to trouble and seemed dangerous for the feet. He subsequently wins two knockout victories in Finland, aiming to immediately challenge the light title photo. Jones loves to study his opponents, but uses what he finds to develop a game plan that fits his strengths to exploit enemy weaknesses. He thinks fans this weekend are ready for every action.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5a0xRJ\">\u201cI&#39;m really looking forward to this fight. \u201cMantykivi is a dangerous opponent, explosive and effective for the forefoot. Can&#39;t wait to show who is the better player. I&#39;m predicting the second round finish but you have to wait how I&#39;m done. For this purpose, the card is placed close to the chest. &quot;<\/p>\n<p id=\"Zz37tL\">If Herbert succeeded in defending his first title later this month, Jones could shoot at current light champion Jai Herbert early next year. This pair looks like it&#39;s on a crash course, but Jones doesn&#39;t overtone the next time he calls the belt.<\/p>\n<p id=\"JOaD3Z\">Jones says, \u201cI am willing to fight the person before me. \u201cI am the best in this category. When I challenge the title, I don&#39;t think I need to justify what I know. Jay had a great fight and had the best strike. He is great overall but not my level. I&#39;m a better martial artist than that! \u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"wzbbDa\">Cage Warrior 108 will be available in real time in the UFC Fight Pass at 9pm BST on Saturday night.
