In this case the location is synonymous with the card: Nice!

They've got L'Equipe on board too. I believe they are France's biggest sports news agency, or at least the best known. Mostly famous for misinterpreting the quotes of pro footballers but nevertheless, it's a boon for GLORY to have them covering the show.

The other HW contender fight has been revealed, completing the tournament to be almost identical to the last HW tournament: Benny vs Gerges www.glorykickboxing.com/en/news/view/1114

p.s. just watched benny's last fight and noticed that rico's trainer, Dennis Krauweel, was in his corner. Did i see correctly? Did Benny move to Netherlands to train?

I like this, here's hoping for Gerges or Wilnis to take it and get a crack at Verhoeven early 2017.

BTW hasn't Londt qualified to be next in line for a title shot? Why has it gotten mysteriously quiet around that?

Also, I kinda would have liked to see Vigney in the tournament over Brestovac. Brestovac had his shot and by now I'd say Vigney has proven himself enough to at least get a shot in a contender tournament. Not that I give him much of a chance at winning in this field.

Don't get me wrong I love the card, it's just that Glory is so consistently inconsistent at following their own rules when it comes to title fight qualification and rankings that it's hard to ignore.

Big bummer, I really wanted to see Marat take another crack at Sitthichai.

We still have a great card though, hopefully nothing else happens to mess up the event beforehand.

Super Bantamweight Bout: Amel Dehby vs. Ji-Waen Lee
Lightweight Bout: Josh Jauncey vs. Serhiy Adamchuk
Featherweight Bout: Petpanomrung Kiatmoo9 vs. Stanislav Renita

Apparently Jauncey isn't fighting Dylan Salvador and is now up against Serhiy Adamchuk.
I also like how Petpanomrung Kiatmoo9 has an actual number 9 in his name.

hes Mighty No. 9

Interesting to see how Adamchuk does this time.

I feel bad for Josh. GLORY is just giving him fights with top guys at this point and he's just kind of a young kid who doesn't know how to turn down a fight.

They offered him Marat for an Interim title, but Marat turned it down because Sitthichai would be fine for December.

You gotta hang with the wolves in Glory. Poor Casey Greene had to fight Tongchai lol

What is their perversion with wanting these instant interim titles.

[K1power]

I guess "Title Unification Bout" makes fights sound bigger than they are.

Think they're sticking to the UFC model too closely haha.

I've never even heard of KB interim titles before this.

Pity about Sittichai, but still strong. Glory 35 (actually this card is quite) Nice.

i feel the exact same; I said to Josh if i was him i would have turned it down. He said he didn't care and looked forward to dismantling him. But i am not at all a fan of how Josh has been matchmade lately and nor am I fan of giving this fight to Adamchuk; I like Adamchuk's technical skills in many ways but i also need to see him go and reduce his clinching and ease off with the headbutting before i give him high profile fights, title shots and rising stars.

I get that he is the former FW champ but he is monosyllabic even in Ukranian and doesn't have a crowdpleaser style, i don't know why he is getting pushed so.

On the other hand, if Josh can get the W then he can add a former champ's scalp to his sheet. I just fear that Adamchuk makes an ugly fight which makes both of them look like shit
