They're not exactly Glory exclusive and who knows when the video was made The 2nd vid guy is in a Sanda fight on the Glory card and the 1st guy has fight(s) a couple week after Glory. Also Ye Xiang just fought a bunch of times like a week ago and he's also fighting again couple weeks after Glory. Not like they're dedicating their near futures to kickboxing.Interesting that in the training footage of these two Chinese Sanda fighters that they are practicing sweeps and over the shoulder throws. They obviously won't be able to do that in Glory!
Only watching this disappointing event for 3 reasons
1) Marcus vs Pereira
2) Pet vs Xie Lei
3)
Dzhaniev in Glory/new blood to 70kg, Ye Xiang in another kb fight and maybe this time we'll see if there's something to him or not, how much of it's own thing the Glory China thing is. There's some things to see.
They haven't done one of these in a while, but if I take what's written on Wikipedia at face value, this is a Qualification Tournament, the winner of which will earn a slot in a future Contender Tournament.I still can't comprehend why Pet is not in a contender tournament.
The only reason is to keep him far away from robin. They know pet won that fight and would take the rematch even easier now that he has experience against rvr's style. Hell the last guy robin fought, which was adamchuk, didn't even win a tournament and only won one fight after losing to pet to get a title shot which makes this whole thing even more asinineI still can't comprehend why Pet is not in a contender tournament.
O lord! she should just be praying he husband does not suffer more extensive brain damage than he already has. To top it all off Bigfoot already had brain abnormalities and issues before he ever suffered brain trauma from fighting.Right or wrong, Bigfoot's wife is all in on this, spending time with him in China as he prepares to hopefully get a win for her birthday on Saturday.

I'd be happy af if they did some hip tosses and sweeps... and it ended up really appealing to mainstream fans. And the glory rules got switched up to allow it.
But that's just a fantasy.
