Glory 27: Chicago is on tomorrow night. It's Glory's first event of 2016 and so it's the first one under their new broadcasting deals:

7:30 ET - SuperFight Series on UFC Fight Pass (ufc.tv)
MW Joe Schilling vs. Mike Lemaire
HW Anderson "Kickboxing Anderson Silva" Silva vs. Maurice Greene
WW Casey Greene vs. Danny Morales Jr.
WW Richard Abraham vs. Pawel Jedrzejczyk
HW Demoreo Dennis vs. Guto Inocente

10 PM ET - Main Card on espn3.com
MW Artem Levin (c) vs. Simon Marcus - For the Middleweight Championship
Middleweight Contender Tournament Final
FTW Giga Chikadze vs. Kevin Vannostrand
MW Dustin Jacoby vs. Karl Roberson - Middleweight Contender Tournament Semi Final
MW Wayne Barrett vs. Robert Thomas - Middleweight Contender Tournament Semi Final

As far as I can tell none of it is on actual TV in the US.

Is the main card gonna be on Fight Pass after the fact as well, or is it just Superfight series?

Based on the description I think the main card will be uploaded to Fight Pass in 30 days similar to what they do with other Fox and PPV shows.

Marcus pushed Levin out of the ring and it got counted as a knockdown despite being more illegal than anything Levin did.

Anyways, GLORY clinch rules are stupid. If you only give guys a few seconds to work and don't allow dumps and sweeps (although Petro was allowed to in the event that took place in his hometown...) it won't actually make matches more exciting, instead guys will just clinch after they punch so that there opponent can't throw anything except illegal and powerless rabbit/kidney punches and wait for the ref to break them so they can do it all over again.

I thought this was on Saturday but apparently it starts in less than 12 hours. K-1 have a good rear end show which you can watch for money if you're the kind of weirdo who has a Nico account: http://live.nicovideo.jp/gate/lv252327835

This is the 65kg Japan GP, the winner (and probably a bunch of the high placers) will participate in the 65kg World GP later in June.

Tournament:

Bracket A:
Masaaki Noiri VS Minoru "Philip" Kimura
Naoki Terasaki VS Hiroya
Bracket B:
Yasuomi Soda VS Hideaki Yamazaki
Yuta Kubo VS Noman

Superfights:

Kaew VS Massaro Glunder (seems to be a 3 round non-title fight)
Hirotaka Urabe VS Johannes Wolf
Makoto Uehara VS Nori (Japanese heavyweight fight featuring a guy who got knocked out by Jaideep twice)
Kotetsu VS Koya Yu (I have no idea either)

Hiroya has fought against 5 of the other 7 participants of the tournament, with a combined 1-7 record in those fights, the sole win coming against Noman (who also beat him once).

Spin the wheel folks, it's that time again:

Koen Everink, the man assaulted and horrifically injured by Badr Hari has:

A. Shot and injured a Mike's Gym fighter defending himself
B. Been found murdered in his own home
C. Reported another assault at the hands of Badr Hari

That's right folks, if you bet B you're a winner.

The K-1 tournament has finished, there are some surprising results and some not so surprising results. The headline news is that Hideaki Yamazaki beat Soda, knocked out Kubo, and beat Noiri by majority decision to win the tournament. A pirate stream apparently had around 400,000 views.

Here's a video in the meantime before full results get compiled by someone who isn't me

My Dutch friend says:

- Everink felt threatened and had security
- Reported that he was regularly intimidated by Moroccan youth, who said he "damaged Badr Hari's reputation"
- Wished to live outside of the Netherlands because of safety
- Did not dare to venture outside of his home without security

while it's endearing these Moroccan youth care about Hari's reputation as their countryman it speaks volumes to the plight of their situation that this is the cause they hitched their ox yolk to

No, he ran some travel website or something, he just had the misfortune to be one of Badr's random acts of violence.

Here's a channel with most of the videos from the recent K-1 show. Both semi finals are worth watching, one has TKO via hook kicks, the regular kind

Seems pretty straight forward: get Badr and Trump in the same room and let the magic happen.

Good news, folks. A suspect in Koen Everink's murder has been arrested, and it's tennis coach Mark De Jong. Kickboxing's image remains squeaky clean, while tennis, a sport beset by drug use and murders falls down further. And coincidentally now Badr Hari doesn't have to pay hundreds of thousands of euroes in compensation, because the man is dead.
