GLORY 13 was another landmark event for kickboxing on a worldwide scale, including the crowning of a new tournament champion in Nieky Holzken, and the final fight of legendary Peter Aerts.
I'm amazed at the love that the japanese fans have for this sport and their favorite fighters. I can't imagine the honor and the "glory" the fighters must truly feel. Amazing stuff!!
Really great highlight video, the mix among clips, commentary and music makes it a piece of art. And I shed tears for my favorite fighter the lumber jack.
It's actually quite funny how in the holzken valtellini fight, at 8:43 they show a left hook as the fight finisher. It was actually a right overhand that did it, but nicely done on the editing.
In momentul upercutului lui Zimmerman, Ghita era deja plecat de acolo si a reactionat cu hook in barbia lui Zimmerman - frumos - dar am impresia ca trebuie sa-si imbunatateasca reflexele si viteza. GHITA THE BEAST.
I still can't believe we've seen Aerts' last fight. I grew up with this statue of a man beating everyone in his path. Never have I seen any hint of doubt in this man's eyes when it came to who he was and what he was here to do. fighting defines him and to me, he's as big of a hero as they come. K-1 will never be the same again... Thank you mr. Aerts!
Ohh boy....Zimmerman with his mask...spent more effort on the entrance than in those 35sec till he got knocked out.Greetings from Romania mr.Zimmerman ;)
Dang this event was awesome. Feel bad for Aerts retirement but this is it, he did a lot in K-1 and Glory too. P.S. what's the name of the music played during the video?
yeah they will fight in Zagreb, Croatia on March 8, 2014. Hope it happens. I think these two haven't fought since 2002 so it's been a LONG time, can't wait.
