Cage Rage 19: Fearless was a mixed martial arts event held by Cage Rage Championships on December 9, 2006 at Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, United Kingdom. This was Cage Rage's first show at this venue.
The heavyweight double main event was based around a "UK vs. US" concept, featuring two name Americans against two British-based fighters. British champion Rob Broughton faced Eric "Butterbean" Esch in a non-title bout and Tengiz Tedoradze, the British-based Georgian in his first Cage Rage appearance since being stripped of his British title, was scheduled to face Wesley "Cabbage" Correira. Tedoradze replaced Robert "Buzz" Berry, who suffered a back injury in training.[2] However, Correira was attacked in his hotel on the morning of the show, resulting in the match being cancelled.[3]
