I'm surprised the odds are that close.

Where can I bet my car on Rico by murder, death, kill?

this is a pretty bad look for glory imo.... 1 win in his last 10 MMA fights, 7 KO losses in those fights... and now fighting the current best HW kickboxer in the world? In a sport he's never competed in where he can't use his grappling skills? I like seeing dudes get ktfo as much as anyone but i want some semblance of a fair fight... this is just going to be a snuff film

Glory 46 will be this Saturday, October 14 in China, so idk when/if/how it will be shown here. Maybe fight pass? I feel like maybe we should boycott it though.

Rico vs. Bigfoot is the main event of the Fight Pass portion of the card and Simon Marcus vs. Alex Pereira is the main event of the numbered card.

Both cards are pretty shitty I'm only excited for Glory People's FW champion Petpanomrung's return to Glory after schooling Robin van Roosmalen (and losing the decision). This guy is one of the craftiest muay thai fighters of the last generation, he has fought the elite of the elite since his teenage years and started kickboxing last year getting royally fucked since then (had a bullshit point deduction and lost to China's top kickboxer Wei Rui, fought two former Glory champions within his first 5 kickboxing fights and got robbed against RvR, then got illegally KOed by a brutal head kick when he was on the ground in his last muay thai fight).

He is now fighting at a bullshit catchweight in Glory for no reason at all. He last fought at 62kg/~135 lbs in Thailand not too long ago and now will be fighting at 68kg/150 lbs.

Poor Bigfoot :(. He lasted a round tho. That was impressive. I'm glad they stopped it a bit prematurely.

I just realized Rico Verhoeven looks just like Sasha Mitchell from the Kickboxer Movies.

Total mismatch. Bigfoot needs to retire. A man that big is destined to likely experience health problems at an early age anyway. Getting pounded in the head like this isn't helping things.
