It's a good thing Glory wasted all their TV spots on aging heavyweights gassing out in denver

I do wonder what, if anything is planned for the Glory 25 broadcast or if they're just going back to the tried and true kickboxing method of losing a lot of money for fun

Glory 26 looks great too http://liverkick.com/index.php/item/3709-year-end-mega-show-glory-26-amsterdam-announced

They either have a better deal with someone else (they've been talking to Showtime but I seriously doubt it) or they're going out with a bang

By the way K-1's tv thing turned out to be a graveyard time buy slot on TV Tokyo which the UFC, Pancrase, and Sengoku have done to no effect in the past as well. They put on the only consistently good kickboxing shows these days and it sucks that they're relegated to the nicovideo ghetto. I'd pay for an English stream, even with no commentary. Their next card looks awesome:



4 title fights including a brother vs brother rematch, a Noiri fight on the undercard, and 2 Koshien finals. If you're one of the people who can deal with nicovideo this is probably going to be the card of the year

Looks cool. Also if I'm reading that correctly I think the card starts at 1:30 AM EST?

drat. I thought this finally might be a manageable Japanese card to watch live. Also I wish US fighters used Thai fighter naming conventions. I want Chad Alphamale and Brock DeathClutch on a card.

Did the more tanned guy die after this fight? He got loving KO'd like twice in the second round and the fight just keeps on going. And then the referee decides he needs to get in on the violence?

Hari's appeal was heard and they told him to gently caress off and get in jail. However, he is going to appeal to the supreme court and so remains a free man, and has gone back to Morocco, where he was filmed slapping a hotel receptionist for no reason the day before his court hearing:

Seems Glory found an American tv deal at least for Glory 25, likely to be announced after the weekend. I wouldn't expect anything bigger than tape delay on CBS sports, but it's better than an iPPV nobody buys or sees.

So what happened to this? Was it fake or did Glory gently caress it up at the last minute?

The deal is basically done but the legal teams are going over it all and it might be announced on Wednesday. Apparently they will fire anyone who leaks which network they're signing with on the spot.
