Power-punching light-heavyweight Zack 'The Black Warrior' Mwekassa returns to the ring this Saturday for a showdown with veteran campaigner Mourad Bouzidi at GLORY 31 AMSTERDAM. On the line is the interim world light-heavyweight championship, guaranteeing a title shot when injured champion Artem Vakhitov returns around October. Bouzidi's recent interview with Bloody Elbow has rubbed him the wrong way.
Mourad Bouzidi is currently riding a four-fight win streak and was originally supposed to be facing Artem Vakhitov in Amsterdam. But, the Russian sustained an injury and had to withdraw. Estimates have him fit to return late fall or early winter.
