5 Reasons MMA Fans Should Watch Glory 19

Lead kickboxing promotion Glory World Series returns on Friday, February 6th with their 19th numbered show live at the Hampton Coliseum, Hampton, Virgina but as an MMA fan should you care. Here is reasons why you might want to think about tuning in on Friday Night.

There's no UFC This Weekend

With no UFC this weekend, and only RFA to keep you going, MMA fans might as well watch Glory 19 because what's the alternative? Spend the weekend with the mrs? God knows you will be doing enough of that the following weekend, have some you time while you can. Late night knockouts or a soppy night with the bride hmm....

Joe Schilling

Yes, that guy. MMA fans might recognise Schilling's name from his thunderous knockout of Melvin Manhoef at Bellator 131, they might even recognise his name as one of Nick Diaz main training partners ahead of his UFC 183 bout with Anderson Silva but Schilling is a legit dude in the kick boxing world. One of the finest strikers in the USA, Schilling hits hard and fast and knocked people out cold and clean - just ask Manhoef and Schilling other countless victims.

Everyone Loves a One Night Tournament

Everyone single of you have pined for a one night tournament at some stage. Facts are MMA was built on the one night tournament. We love how unpredictable they are, we love their grueling nature, and we love to see one gladiator crown champion at the end. But a good one night tournament doesn't exist in MMA anymore. Glory 19 answer the question Dana White gets asked by fans at least once a year by pitting four of the best welterweight fighters in the world against each other, winner takes all. Nieky Holzken, Alexander Stutsurenko, Raymond Daniels, and Jonatan Oliveira will all go in the ring on Friday and only one will come out victorious.

Thatch vs Thompson got Cancelled

Oh shit this was the stand up battle we were all pumped up for... then it got cancelled! While it's a total shame MMA fans around the world won't get the enjoy Thatch's Muay Thai destruction against Thompson Kempo Karate masterclass, Glory 19 will certainly fulfill your stand up needs. Chocked full of the deadliest strikers from Dutch Kickboxers, Kempo masters, and Muay Thai world champions, Glory 19 guarantees knockouts.

Raymond Daniels Has the Magic

If you don't know who Raymond Daniels then you probably haven't seen his video game like knockout of Francois Ambang - check it out here now, its worth it . Now I know what you are thinking "that was one of the best damn knockouts I've ever seen, there is now way he could every do that ever again". Well guess what, you are wrong as Daniels, who is a sixth degree black belt in American Kempo, A sixth degree black belt in Shotokan, and a fifth degree black belt in Taekwondo, has a regular habit of finishing fools this way. In fact he has done it a total of ten times in his pro career - WOW! Tune in to Glory 19 this weekend to see if Daniels can produce more magic.
