Glory 25 Results: Sittichai loses controversial decision to Robin van Roosmalen, Petrosyan successful in Glory return


Glory 25 took place today in Milan, Italy. The promotion made it's debut on ESPN 3 with Robin van Roosmalen and Sittichai Sitsongpeenong fighting for the Glory Lightweight Championship in the main event and Giorgio Petrosyan making his return to the Glory ring in the co-main event.

Sittichai Sitsongpeenong looked sharp against Robin van Roosmalen. He delivered a steady stream of left kicks to the body and legs of van Roosmalen with some strong knees mixed in. He controlled the fight as van Roosmalen didn't seem as active as we have come accustomed to seeing from him. He opened up a bit more in the third round but Sittichai dictated the pace of the fight from start to finish. It seemed a new Glory Lightweight Champion would be crowned, but much to the displeasure of the fans in attendance van Roosmalen was declared the winner by unanimous decision with scores of 48-47 from all three judges. Fans booed the decision and van Roosmalen told them he didn't care if they booed afterwards during his post fight interview. Definitely a controversial ending and an unfortunate one for Sittichai.

In the co-main event Giorgio Petrosyan returned to Glory for the first time in two years. Looking to spoil his return was Canada's Josh Jauncey, but despite his efforts Petrosyan was on point. The Doctor was surgical with his strikes. He was very accurate and his evasive defensive skills were near perfect. Jauncey put forward a valiant effort as he did not back away from Petrosyan, but it was impossible for him to land anything significant on Petrosyan while not being able to avoid Petrosyan's strikes. In the end it was a successful return for Petrosyan who took home a unanimous decision victory.

In the welterweight contender tournament Murthel Groenhart and Karim Ghajji met in the finals to see who would win a shot at Nieky Holzken's welterweight title. Groenhart made it to the finals by scoring a stoppage over Nicola Gallo after a knee opened a cut that forced the fight to be stopped. Ghajji defeated Yoann Kongolo by majority decision in his semi-final bout in a very close fight.

In the tournament final Groenhart came out looking to end things early. A right hand knocked Ghajji down and after he answered the count Groenhart went in for the kill unleashing flurry after flurry trying to put Ghajji out, but he was able to survive the round. In the second Groenhart looked a bit slower than the first and Ghajji started to get back into the fight with some nice combinations. In the third round Groenhart and Ghajji went toe to toe and when it was over Groenhart took home a unanimous decision. With the win Groenhart will now face Nieky Holzken for the Glory Welterweight title.

Glory Featherweight Champion Gabriel Varga was unsuccessful in his first title defense. Serhiy Adamchuck was crowned the new champion with a unanimous decision win in what was a close fight.

Giorgio Petrosyan def. Josh Jauncey via Unanimous Decision

Fight Card for Glory 25


Glory 25 takes place this Friday November 6 in Milan, Italy. It will be Glory's first show since officially announcing their events will no longer air on Spike TV. The current information on how the event can be seen is unknown, but the fight card is still stacked.

The main event will feature Glory Lightweight Champion Robin van Roosmalen as he puts his title on the line against Sittichai Sitsongpeenong. This bout will be van Roosmalen's second title defense with his most recent being a decision victory over former champion Andy Ristie. Sittichai won the Glory 22 contender tournament and since then has won four more bouts in other promotions leading to his showdown with van Roosmalen. It should be fireworks between these two.

The co-main event will feature the return of Giorgio Petrosyan as he takes on Josh Jauncey. Petrosyan has not fought for Glory since Glory 12 on November of 2013 where he lost for only the second time in his career. Since the loss Petrosyan has fought only three times with all of them ending in victories. He defeated Erkan Varol, Enriko Kehl, and most recently Xu Yan. Jauncey has taken the Kickboxing world by storm since debuting in 2014. He has gone 4-1 with three of his wins coming by knockout. He last competed at Glory 22 this past June in the lightweight tournament where he won his semi-final bout against Djime Coulibaly by (T)KO, but came up short in a decision to Sittichai Sitsongpeenong in the tournament finals. 

A four man tournament in the Glory welterweight division will take place. The semi-final bouts for the tournament are Murthel Groenhart vs. Nicola Galo and Karim Ghajji vs. Yoann Kongolo.

The Super Fight Series portion of the card will also feature some big names. Glory Featherweight Champion Gabriel Varga will make his first title defense against Serhiy Adamchuk. The pair was previously set to fight on the Bellator 142: Dynamite event, but an injury forced Varga to withdraw from the bout.

Danyo Illunga and Artem Vakhitov will also square off at Glory 25. Illunga was a hot prospect when Glory first launched, but has struggled as of late going 2-3 in his last five fights. Vakhitov most recently competed for Glory at Glory 20 where he dropped a split decision to current Glory Light Heavyweight Champion Saulo Cavalari. Before the loss to Cavalari, Vakhitov had won eight consecutive bouts.

Fight Card:
Robin van Roosmalen (c) vs. Sittichai Sitsongpeenong for Glory Lightweight Championship
Giorgio Petrosyan vs. Josh Jauncey
Gabriel Varga (c) vs. Serhiy Adamchuk for Glory Featherweight Championship
Danyo Illunga vs. Artem Vakhitov
Samir Boukhidous vs. Vittorio Iermano
Stefano Bruno vs. Hosam Radwan
Anatoly Moiseev vs. Teo Mikelic

Glory Welterweight Tournament:
Murthel Groenhart vs. Nicola Galo
Karim Ghajji vs. Yoann Kongolo

Vigney will be looking to build upon his recent heavyweight tournament win at Glory 22 in San Diego this past June. Sam is considered to be the stiffest test that Vigney has faced in his career thus far.

Glory 10 Results and Recap: Schilling stuns Levin to win 4-man tournament

Glory 10 took place last night in Ontario, CA and the night’s story was Joe Schilling shocking the world by winning the 4-man middleweight tournament. There was a lot of attention surrounding the tournament since its announcement and with Schilling’s original opponent, Steve Wakeling, not able to secure a visa to fight in tournament many expected a Schilling vs. Artem Levin finale. That is exactly what they got, but many didn’t expect Schilling to defeat Levin, but he did just that. Before Levin and Schilling met in the final Levin defeated Jason Wilnis by unanimous decision and Schilling defeated Kengo Shimizu by unanimous decision.

In the final Levin looked good early in the fight but in the second round Levin was knocked by Schilling after a superman punch and a knee landed. The third round was close, and after three rounds the fight was ruled a majority draw and they proceeded to an extra round. In the extra round things started off right until Schilling scored a flash knockdown on Levin, which Levin protested. The tide of the fight shifted and when it was over Schilling was declared the winner.

Glory 7 took place today in Milan, Italy. In the night’s main event Giorgio Petrosyan returned to the Glory ring to fight Moroccan Hafid El Boustati, and it was typical Petrosyan performance. Great movement and accurate striking stifled El Boustati for all three rounds and Petrsoyan walked away with a unanimous decision win. It was another dominant performance from “The Doctor”.

In the co-main event heavy hitters Robin van Roosmalen and Murthel Groenhart went the distance. Groenhart drew first blood after landing some vicious knees and opened up a cut on van Roosmalen. Despite taking sustaining the early damage, van Roosmalen landed a right hand that dropped Groenhart after which van Roosmalen seemed to take control of the fight. Van Roosmalen continued to push forward and backed up Groenhart the remainder of the fight and walked away with a unanimous decision.

Chad and Nathan's Pick 3 - Glory 7 Predictions

With Glory 7 on the horizon, Chad Sanderson of Fight Sport Asia and Nathan Aripez of Muay Thai Authority have teamed up to bring you predictions for three fights at Glory 7 they feel are most interesting for fans. As usual the fight card is stacked with top tier talent, but these three stand out. Let us know if you agree or disagree with Chad and Nathan.

For the latest news on combat sports in Asia make sure to visit our friends at FightSportAsia.com, for the latest on the North American Striking scene stay locked on here at MuayThaiAuthority.com.

Giorgio Petrosyan vs. Hafid El Boustati:

Chad’s pick – Giorgio Petrosyan
A lot of people aren't giving Hafid el Boustati much chance in this fight. It's understandable, Petrosyan has only looked mortal when he's been either injured or sick, so anyone outside of the very top of the 70kg probably won't pose much of a threat to him. That being said Boustati is a technician, and as we saw in his fight against Fabio Pinca, Petrosyan typically has to work a little harder to impose his dominance against the technically gifted. Don't get me wrong, he still wins pretty easily but it's not an obliteration of epic proportions. I have to go with Petro by decision.

Nathan’s pick – Giorgio Petrosyan
Petrosyan is arguably the best striker in the world. Boustati is a solid striker in his own right, but he's not Giorgio Petrosyan. This should be another routine fight for Petrosyan as he uses his accurate striking and great movement to pick apart Boustati en route to a decision victory.

Murthel Groenhart vs. Robin van Roosmalen:

Chad’s pick – Murthel Groenhart
This is an interesting fight, because it will reveal if there's anyone in the 70kg division that can still challenge Petrosyan for the MAX crown. Roosmalen likes pushing guys to the ropes, cornering them and unloading when they have nowhere to run. But Groenhart is a big, big dude. He usually fights at 77kg and has the power and strength behind to back it up. I don't think Roosemalen will be able to bully him like he does to his smaller opponents, and when that doesn't work it'll come down to a brawl. Roosmalen is built like a brick stove, but Groenhart is such a giant in his weight class that I imagine he'll put 'Pokerface" on his back foot. I'm picking Murthel by decision.

Nathan’s pick – Murthel Groenhart

It's probably a safe bet that Groenhart vs. van Roosmalen will steal the show at Glory 7. Both are aggressive fighters with a penchant for finishing their opponents before the final bell. This is going to be a barn burner as both fighters land some powerful shots, but size is going to be the X factor. Groenhart is the larger fighter and it will be evident as he scores a stoppage in the final round.

Artem Levin vs. Sahak Parparyan:

Chad’s pick – Sahak Parparyan
Until very recently, both Sahak and Levin stood at the heads of their respective divisions. Sahak was recently uprooted by Franci Grasj, and Levin lost his #1 spot to Simon Marcus. Levin will be coming up in weight from 80kg to 85kg in this match and Parparyan is a tough, tough opponent to have for the transition. Both guys love to punch, so I definitely see this being a firefight. That being said, I think Parparyan is a little more comfortable at this weight, and has fought more frequently under kickboxing rules. I'm going with Parparyan by decision in this one.

Nathan’s pick – Artem Levin
Levin will be looking to get back to his winning ways against Parparyan and his boxing will be the key. Levin should be able to use his boxing skills to out strike Parparyan, however, he can't get cocky as he does at times and drop his hands because Parparyan is a heavy hitter. As long as Levin works his boxing and mixes in a few kicks he should take home the decision victory.
