There are always going to be certain countries in the yellow glove rotation that Cage Warriors returns to because of the sheer volume of talent produced by a particular nation. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet the newest Irish investment ready to turn potential into green profits by adding his arsenal to the factory stockpile for the organization. A professional mixed martial artist since June 2025 and representing Eire Grapple, Ronan Deegan is the owner of a 4-0 record consisting of three submissions and one decision. All three of Deegan’s finishes in his time as a professional MMA fighter have been in the opening round inside of five minutes or fewer. His one and only decision victory has resulted in a unanimous verdict over a course of three rounds and a timeframe of 15 minutes. His entire career has been in the United Kingdom. Deegan has fought for various promotions throughout his professional journey including Clan Wars, Elite Fighting Championship and Virtus MMA. He has gone to the scorecards once and has finished three out of his four wins in total.
In his professional MMA debut at Clan Wars 52, he tapped out Ashley Williams via rear-naked choke in the first round. Deegan also submitted Jimmy McDonagh in round one via rear-naked choke at Virtus MMA 5. Then at Elite Fighting Championships 8, he choked out Jhonata Vasconcelos in the first round via rear-naked choke to pick up his third submission win as a professional. Deegan defeated Levi Rodrigues via unanimous decision in the main event of Elite Fighting Championships 9 to earn the first decision victory of his professional career. He also obtained his fourth consecutive win to begin his story overall as a professional mixed martial artist in the process.
At Cage Warriors 210 from the RDS Arena in Dubin on September 26, he will face fellow unbeaten Billy Sutherland in a contest at flyweight. Other Emerald Isle talents set to feature on Cage Warriors 210 include Gary Rooney, Trevor Makengo and former title challenger Solomon Simon. Good luck Ronan!
