Nieky Holzken retained the world welterweight title in the main event of GLORY 29 COPENHAGEN after a thrilling clash with Yoann Kongolo. But who will he face next?
Saturday night's GLORY 29 COPENHAGEN main event between Nieky Holzken and Yoann Kongolo was instantly hailed as a contender for "Fight of the Year" honors. Both fighters are professional boxers as well as kickboxers (by coincidence, both train at Mayweather's gym in Las Vegas on occasion). The pace was frenetic and the skill-level was high.
Holzken took the first two rounds quite comfortably but the third and fourth saw Kongolo pile the pressure on and experience considerable success.
