I see Saki is still ranked at LHW in Glory #6. His last fight in Glory was almost 3 years ago on 2014-04-12. What's going on with Saki and why is he still ranked (fighters are removed from ranking after 1 year of inactivity in Glory)? Did Glory sign a contract with him but some issues (maybe health ones) are stopping him from coming back?

Glory rankings are more like art and thus cannot be confined by silly things like "rules".

He's had problems cutting weight and doing cardio since then. He was due to return last year early on, but he quite simply couldn't make the weight. Note how he's now calling out heavyweights. But Glory wants him at Light Heavyweight.

I would just love to see him coming back, LHW or HW, both divisions would benefit from having a fighter like Saki. I would argue that HW would benefit way more, it's been so stagnant with Rico's domination. Even if Saki wouldn't win against Rico, it would at least make it interesting for a while. At LHW i believe Zhuralev is perfectly capable of challenging Vakhitov.

Badr Hari is very active on his facebook page, posting training pictures since the news related to the jail time he has to serve. It seems like he is training in Morocco for another fight?

Are there any upcoming fights before Glory 39 you guys are looking forward to? Krush.74 is happening this Friday. Haven't taken a look at the card yet, but there's always a bunch of fun fights happening there.

Some good, odd and sorta unnecessary Enfusion happenings.
The upcoming 67kg and 85kg leagues will be fought 5x3min.
Ozcan's camp complained about the Risco result and Enfusion gave him 1 point for it because, well, they can just do stuff if they want to. This not really being a bad thing this time.
They're adding a video ref/jury. I guess it can depend a little on the execution of it but IMO seems sorta unnecessary. I like the fact that Enfusion is willing to change and try new things when it comes to officiating though.
Once the 72.5kg league is done sounds like the next one is a straight up 16-man tournament. Part of it 5x3min also.
From end of 2016 to end of 2017 they'll be doing 3 events in Abu Dhabi within a year. Guess they got some UAE money?

The 'news' that he is convicted and still has to do some time is absolutely true.

Is there a chance that he will serve the jail time later in the year? If this is the case he might be able to do one more fight before that?

If Badr Hari is taking the Donald Trump 'fake news' stance on very real things he can be flushed down the same ole' toilet. He was sentenced to six months, period.
