So it sounds like this'll be on fightpass? Wonder how they're making this work financially. Hope it isn't another Last Man Standing type financial bomb to Glory just to make nice with Verhoeven.

Holzken-Groenhart should be on this too. Close to the border and seems pretty easy for Dutchies to get to with a direct rail line and everything so Glory banking on people to make the trip too.
Should be at ~13k seater König-Pilsener-Arena since there doesn't really seem to be other indoor venues there. 3rd, 10th or 24th of December are free. Can't see them doing it on the 24th and WLF/Mix Fight Gala in Germany with Kehl on Dec 3 so maybe Glory on the 10th then?

Wow, Don't know about you but, man, I was DYING to know who broke this news first!!!
As important, if not more so, than the fight itself actually happening.
Walshie, do you put yourself over every time you break some news?

Not super important no but he did go out of his way a little to speak to people to get to it at least  I'm no writer but sometimes for kickboxing stuff it's funny to me the way people just 100% take other people's shit and pass it off as their own. QUICK BETTER PUT MY WATERMARK ON THIS IMAGE MADE BY OTHER PEOPLE AND GET SOME AD REVENUE FROM OTHER PEOPLES VIDS ON YOUTUBE!!!!!!111 |

It's like that in just about all combat sports, especially if the "taker" has no connection with the "breaker". If they are on friendly terms, it's usually "so and so were the first to break this."
It's the first time that I've seen somebody this pleased with themselves for something that was being pieced together anyway. It just struck me as a little odd. the kb planet story even gives a needless little dig to Helwani.

But that's unnecessary yeah, Helwani did nothing wrong. |

What we really need to know, and something that would be worth bragging about, is how much GLORY is paying them both.....

That'd be interesting but doubt we get to hear it I love all kinds of actual numbers whenever promotions give them out instead of generic "hundreds of...thousands of...millions" whatever that don't actually represent anything real half the time. We're watched by 150mil+ people around the world (c)half the promotions in europe who have been on eurosport. |

I especially like when they shoot themselves in the foot: "Our new television partner, SPLAT TV, is available in 20 million homes around the country. This will be a tremendous platform to expand our brand and expose the sport to a new fanbase etc etc"
And if and when the numbers finally come in they show that about less than 5% of those homes bothered to tune in.
