 Has to be a "dutchie"?: Gerges? Wilnis? Saddik? Londt (injured?)? If not a dutchie? Adegbuyi? Brestovac? Inocente? Silva? Diniz? Zimmerman? Morosanu? New guy?: Kryklia? Gerasimchuk? The Chinese HW who beat Banks? |

So this is it, huh.
Putting Rico against a Morrocan fighter will definitely get butts in seats here in Holland. That's the only thing about this matchup that makes sense. If it's about giving Rico a stay busy fight, there are way, waay better options than Lazaar, who will get pounded badly.

So I'm looking at all the fights and every fight announced thus far is actually part of the SFS. Despite Lazaar not being a solid opponent for Rico, I wonder how the main card is supposed to top this:
GLORY 41 SuperFight Series
Heavyweight Superfight Headline Bout: Rico Verhoeven vs. Ismael Lazaar
Featherweight World Title Bout: Robin van Roosmalen vs. Petchpanomrung Kiatmookao
Welterweight Bout: Murthel Groenhart vs. Harut Grigorian
Light Heavyweight Bout: Michael Duut vs. Mourad Bouzidi

Ismael Lazaar? The guy looks like a sack of potatoes. He seems to have acceptable skills from what i've seen of him but he is 1.82, definitely not a real HW. He should get in shape and fight at LHW (or even lower) and definitely not directly against any Glory champion. I guess K1power is right, he's a morrocan so there you have it.

Lazaar is actually 1.75m which is shocking for a HW... Was there any HW Kicboxer that short? There was manhoef who fought at HW, but he only weight around 90 kgs which is a LHW weight. Lazaar is 1.75m and around 115 kg... hard to even give him a real puncher chance against Rico...
BTW if they wanted a marrocan than why not Ben Saddik?
Though it is almost impossible, it would be the most hilarious thing ever if somehow lazaar knocks him out.

Hunt is 1.78m and even heavier, but he has the frame of a true heavyweight.
As for Ben Saddik, they're probably saving that fight for a more marquee event than "Den Bosch"

Lazaar is a blown up middleweight. I respect his skills, but yeeeeesh.
I get why they did this, but c'mon. Nobody is gonna be fooled to think that Lazaar is anywhere near Badr's level of a challenge. Why not put Lazaar in the contender's tournament and have Rico fight JBS?

www.glorykickboxing.com/en/news/view/1289Verhoeven: “Lazaar stepped up for GLORY 41 fight, Saki turned it down” So if true, Ben Saddik fell of a motorcycle and can't fight, Londt is injured too(?), Saki didn't want it...okay explains a little...still not a great fight. Rico staying active. Also

Haha not the best choice of words. Might as well have written "Lazaar fights mostly bush league in Holland"
