Glory

Righters was rescheduled to face Jahfarr Wilnis.[17] His opponent changed once more, with Wilnis being replaced by Massinissa Hamaili.[18] The event was indefinitely postponed, as main event fighter Badr Hari contracted COVID-19,[19] as well as due to a partial lockdown imposed by the Dutch government.[20] The event was rescheduled for December 19.[21] Hamaili would later be replaced by Marciano Bhagwandass, four days before the event.[22] Rigters won the tournament, knocking out Marciano Bhagwandass with a body shot in the second round of the semifinal bout, and Nordine Mahieddine by a body kick in the first round of the tournament final.[23]
