This Saturday, likable Denver, Colorado middleweight Dustin Jacoby will complete a journey which has taken him from last-minute replacement opponent to kickboxing world title challenger. The UFC veteran was an 0-0 rookie when he took his first professional kickboxing fight just three years ago. This weekend, he faces the highly-accomplished champion Simon Marcus in the main event of GLORY 30 LOS ANGELES.
Almost everyone who spends any time with Dustin Jacoby comes away with a good opinion of him. He is likable, humorous and personable. People around him talk about his good character. But none of that amiability stopped him being written off by fans, when his TKO loss in his GLORY 5 LONDON debut was followed by four more defeats in a row.
