GLORY is hitting Sin City and bringing a title fight with it.
Dutch knockout artist Nieky Holzken will take on the always-exciting Raymond Daniels for the welterweight title in the main event of GLORY 23 on Aug. 7 at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas, sources confirmed with MMAFighting.com. The bout will be officially announced Friday during the GLORY 22 broadcast on Spike TV.
Joe Valtellini had to give up the belt this week due to a bout with post-concussion syndrome, according to Bloody Elbow. There is no timetable for his return.
Holzken, 31, beat Valtellini for the welterweight title in December 2013, but had to forfeit it due to a shoulder injury last year.
