GLORY 99: Last Heavyweight Standing Results

  • Results
  • Apr 6, 2025

The opening round of GLORY’s Last Heavyweight Standing tournament kicked off in exciting fashion on Saturday night with explosive knockouts and standout performances throughout the evening.

Thirty-two monstrous heavyweights took to the GLORY ring in an all-heavyweight fight card where sixteen moved onto the next round at GLORY 100 this June.

Heavyweight favourite Jamal Ben Saddik (38-9, 29 KO) was victorious in the main event against the durable Cristian Ristea (44-26, 12 KO). ‘The Goliath’ earned a hard-fought unanimous decision victory and punched his ticket onto the next round.

In the co-main event, Bahram Rajabzadeh (71-4, 63 KO) got his seventh GLORY knockout over the veteran Brian Douwes (42-27-1, 31 KO). ‘The Golden Wolf’s’ pace and strength were too much for Douwes, knocking him down three times in the very first round forcing the referee to call a stop to the action.

Former interim champion Tariq Osaro (27-4-1, 14 KO) scored a first-round knockout over Benjamin Adegbuyi (35-9, 20 KO). Fan-favourite ‘Big Sexy’ Nico Horta (24-10, 4 KO) scored a huge upset win against the debuting Rade Opacic (21-7, 16 KO), folding the Serbian with a devastating right hand. France’s Sofian Laidouni (38-4-1, 19 KO) had a career best performance in stopping Ukrainian Oleh Pryimachov (16-6, 5 KO) in spectacular fashion. Serbia’s Miloš Cvjetićanin (12-3, 8 KO) overcame a sixty kilogram weight differential to score an entertaining split decision win over Nabil Khachab (29-6-1, 4 KO).

Other victors moving onto the next round include ‘The Romanian Tank’ Ionut Iancu (31-10, 13 KO) with a patented peformance, Asadulla Nasipov (11-1, 5 KO), Tomas Mozny (22-10, 7 KO), Alin Nechita (17-1, 7 KO), Mory Kromah (32-3-1, 18 KO), twins Asdren Gashi (18-4-1, 9 KO) and Luigj Gashi (16-4, 4 KO), Anis Bouzid (46-4, 37 KO), ‘The Beast’ Colin George (24-12, 22 KO), and Iraj Azizpour (70-7, 28 KO) thanks to a spinning backfist.
