GLORY COLLISION 8 will take place this Saturday, December 13, from the GelreDome soccer stadium in Arnhem, the Netherlands, and will feature a stacked card filled with champions, legends, big returns, top prospects, and one-night tournaments. All fighters weighed-in and made weight earlier today in Amsterdam, confirming the final star-studded line-up for Saturday night.
Headlining COLLISION 8 is the trilogy fight between Croatian superstar Antonio Plazibat (22-5, 16 KO) and ‘The Bear’ Nordine Mahieddine (29-15, 13 KO). Plazibat is finally making his much-anticipated return to the ring after an injury has kept him on the sidelines for over two years.
In the co-main event, kickboxing legend Errol Zimmerman (111-20-1, 44 KO) returns to the GLORY ring after ten years away and will face man-mountain Alex Simon (1-0, 1 KO), formerly Australia’s strongest man turned fighter.
Both main and co-main event contests are wildcard eliminator fights for the final two spots in the GLORY 105: Last Heavyweight Standing Finals set for February 7.
The COLLISION 8 welterweight tournament will see world champion Chico Kwasi (45-5-2, 23 KO) rematching Bulgaria’s Teodor Hristov (18-4, 7 KO) in their semi-final while former champ Endy Semeleer (38-3, 18 KO) will take on rising outspoken prospect Don Sno (7-2, 3 KO) on the other side of the bracket.
In the light heavyweight tournament, we have two unmissable semi-finals the ‘Timebomb’ Michael Boapeah (21-5-1, 9 KO) takes on the unpredictable Iuri Fernandes (10-1, 4 KO) and Serbia’s Milos Cvjeticanin (16-4, 9 KO) meets Turkey’s Cem Caceres (19-2, 14 KO) for the second time this year after their explosive encounter over the summer.
COLLISION 8 will also feature the next round of the GLORY x RISE Last Featherweight Standing tournament. Featherweight GOAT Petch (174-40-3, 27 KO) faces German Polish fighter Dennis Wosik (40-9-1, 9 KO), KO artist Miguel Trindade (63-8, 26 KO) takes on France’s Bobo Sacko (79-6-1, 30 KO), and Mexico’s Abraham Vidales (17-4, 13 KO) clashes with Italy’s Achraf Aasila (53-13, 13 KO).
All this and so much more will take place at GLORY COLLISION 8 on December 13. Final tickets are available to be purchased right now from GLORYKickboxing.com.
