On Friday, Glory returns to Southern California for its first event of 2017. Headlining Glory 37: Los Angeles will be middleweight champion Jason Wilnis defending his title against Israel Adesanya. At Thursday’s weigh-ins, both combatants cleared the final hurdle before tearing into one another.
Adesanya was the first of the two main event foes to tip the scale and he came in right on the money at 185.6 pounds. Wilnis, who won the title by upsetting Simon Marcus at Glory 33, was equally on point as his challenger; he checked in officially at 185.6.
Helping to bolster the Glory 37 main card is a four-man one-night welterweight tournament.
