George Hardwick is known for his sharp body shots and he showed why in his first major regional promotional title fight Friday in London. At Cage Warriors 141 , Hardwick (10-1) went to his bread-and-butter attack when he blasted AKA’s Kyle Driscoll (13-4) with a series of punches to the body and head to claim the promotion’s vacant lightweight title at 1:25 of Round 4. The fight was closely contested in the early stages. Slowly but surely that changed as Hardwick maintained a high energy level and quick movements. Driscoll’s range was excellent early, but as the fight continued he appeared to slow down. In Round 3, Hardwick dropped Driscoll with a body shot that swung the momentum clearly in his favor
