Vicente Luque wants to honor late former manager Glenn Robinson at UFC 229

LAS VEGAS — Vicente Luque didn’t have the most impressive record back in 2014. He was 7-4-1 on the regional MMA scene in Brazil and not thought of as a prospect.

Despite that, the Blackzilians picked Luque up and had him compete for the South Florida-based team on The Ultimate Fighter 21: American Top Team vs. Blackzilians. For that, Luque will be forever grateful to the team and its founder Glenn Robinson, who died last month reportedly from a suspected heart attack.

“He saw what I had and the coaches saw what I had at the Blackzilians,” Luque said.
