Twitter Prepares for Cage Warriors 70 In Dublin

After the success of UFC Fight Night: McGregor vs. Brandao in Dublin just under a month ago the professional MMA cage returns to the fair city on August 16th as Cage Warriors 70 takes place in  Dublin City University’s Helix Arena. Headlining the card is Donegal’s Joseph Duffy in his return to the sport after an unbeaten spell as a boxer. The twittersphere has been rife with excitement about, not only, the main event but the whole of the stacked card. Here are a selection of the best micro blogs to whet your appetite for Saturday night.
