Also from Alistair's Facebook: Lol I like how multiple parties are firing shots at each other. Lol Rico turned in 3 years from MR.nice guy to Mr.I trash talk everyone. I was also bother by his remarks of melvin. Melvin was at least active compared to Remy and he did win the last fight against remy in 2009(very bad judges). Anyway Remy will probably still beat melvin, but it's a close and competitive fight. I would say 60-40 for Remy. On the other hand bigfoot vs Verhoven... |

I was able to avoid spoilers for the SFS, but since Glory's main cards always take forever to find their way online I spoiled those results for myself while looking up clips. Standouts to me were Brestovac murdering Hesdy in less than a round - I blame Dave and Magi for jinxing this fight and keeping Hesdy from being awesome. In all seriousness though this was a great KO, but I feel bad for it happening to Hesdy. He just can't seem to catch a break in Glory. He got stood up by Chi multiple times, was on the bad end of some terrible decisions and when he finally gets to fight a top contender he gets knocked out brutally. BUT, Hesdy is still only 33 which isn't too old for a heavyweight and actually pretty crazy considering how long he has been fighting top level guys. He'll come back from this. Another standout was Belgaroui just making Wilnis look bad and taking care of business. In spite of the difference in reach, I didn't expect this to happen at all. One complaint though that I had before that was now solidified; Manny Mancha had no place in the tournament. It's unfair, almost cruel matchmaking. Due to a freak injury of Hadar he gets a win after already having been beaten up pretty bad, only to get murdered by Duut in 10 seconds. He did manage to break Duut's nose in those 10 seconds with that left hook though, lol. Duut mentioned it in the post fight interview he did at the Ziggo Sport booth. Beztati/Sitmonchai, Danenberg/Uega and Hessling/Koprivlensk were all entertaining bouts as well. Glory needed an event like this to redeem themselves from the previous couple of turds. I just hope the rest of the season is more like this one and less like Glory 44. Just watched the main card and was going to write something but I'll just agree with most what you said. Michael Duut winning the tournament in what, ~1 minute (!) was pretty impressive as well, even if it was against low-tier competition. 48s or something like that yeah. And from what I actually have seen I must say this was actually a great event that had a little bit of everything. Good technical fights, some brawls and some great knockouts. + Hadar losing the way he did, I'm sure not what he wanted but it is a moment. SFS pacing at least was excellent compared to the previous event that felt like it was 10 hours long.   |

Manny Mancha's corner absolutely, 100% failed him by letting him continue.
Truthfully, the ref should have counted after he fell out of the ring against Hadar.

Watched the whole show from top to toe this evening and what a mixed old bag that was. A couple of absorbing fights, some piss-takingly early finishes, a genuine Knockout Of The Year contender (a real bada-bing from Scorpion Sting) with a couple of watch-through-your-fingers spots thrown in for good measure.
