GLORY 22 results: Rico Verhoeven defeats Benjamin Adegbuyi by unanimous decision to retain heavyweight title

Rico Verhoeven successfully defended his GLORY heavyweight title at GLORY 22 in Lille, France on Friday Afternoon (June 5, 2015), defeating No.2-ranked Benjamin Adegbuyi by unanimous decision.

You can call Rico Verhoeven boring and knock on him for not finishing fights, but you can't deride him for winning. And that is what the GLORY champion continues to do.

At GLORY 22 in Lille, France, on Friday afternoon (June 5, 2015) the 26-year-old Dutch kickboxer proved once again why he is the GLORY heavyweight kingpin, defeating Benjamin Adegbuyi by unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 50-45) in a mostly one-sided affair.
