Benjamin Adegbuyi is confident if he wins GLORY 24 Heavyweight "Contender" tournament, he will defeat GLORY champion Rico Verhoeven for the title in a rematch.
Benjamin Adegbuyi (20-3) has been steadily rising through the kickboxing ranks the last few years, winning his first three GLORY match ups to earn a crack at current Heavyweight champion, Rico Verhoeven.
Unfortunately for the Transylvania native, he fell to the champion via unanimous decision in the main event at GLORY 22 in Lille, France, this past June. Adegbuyi looked great early on, but wilted as the fight grew longer and Verhoeven took command for the rest of the bout en route to his second straight title defense.
