I am actually kinda glad he's off the card. Nobody should be coming back that quickly after what he went through.

Without hyperbolizing this may just be the worst stream I have ever watched on YouTube.
Glory consistently has issues with even the most basic stuff like setting up a stream for pressers or weigh-ins.
THE kickboxing promotion on the planet, my ass.

This is like watching a slide show.. Oh this is way worse. A slideshow implies that you get new images at a steady pace.

GLORY is the UFC in position, but Bellator in nature.

So the stream got cut off and the video disappeared completely about halfway through lol.
I hope this was actually recorded properly and will be uploaded later on, because I'm interested in some of the staredowns.

Just watched it and it was actually quite good. Too bad the live stream was such a disaster. Interesting tidbits are Tim Hughes confirming that the tournament will be 1 of 3 GP qualifiers left until the Grand Prix. Unless G89 will have multiple fighters qualifying, this confirms 5 GP participants are determined by qualifiers and 3 will be given wildcards. Also McSweeney showed up to talk about his fight with Badr for a minute. Apparently him and Badr had been talking shit to each other a number of years ago. I guess they want some sort of narrative to justify this matchup. McSweeney said since his loss to Saki he actually fought and won another kickboxing fight in Germany (as listed on his wiki page). Hey, if this doesn't work out for Badr they may be able to get Patrice Quarteron who Badr ducked about a decade ago lol. On to the weigh-ins, as expected Rajabzadeh/Amine and Groenhart/Akipa were pretty intense. Should be good fights. So, does anyone have any predictions for tomorrow?

My quick predictions Beztati beats Kaito - Tyjani is too heavy a favorite for me to go against the grain, but Kaito may do better than expected. Boapeah beats Braun - Their first fight was close, but it feels like Boapeah is in the zone right now. Groenhart beats Akipa - Groenhart may be past his prime, but Akipa isn't good enough to take him (yet). Kaffa beats El Hammouti - This one could go either way, but I picked Kaffa for coming off a win. Hadar beats Muszynski - Hadar has been unsuccessfull in Glory so far, but he's fighting at a lower weight against a last minute replacement.
Tournament Terpstra beats Amine - Amine will be more spent than Terpstra and will struggle against the taller fighter. Terpstra beats Jürjendal - Terpstra easily has the most impressive record of all tournament participants. Amine beats Rajabzadeh - Rajabzadeh hasn't been tested yet and is quite small for a heavyweight. Filipovic beats Ristea - I've only seen Filipovic against Kwasi, but I've never been impressed by Ristea.
Wonder how many I'll get right. I hope it's more than one lol.
