GLORY 22: Rico Verhoeven vs Benjamin Adegbuyi (Full Video)

Main Event: FULL VIDEO of Rico Verhoeven vs Benjamin Adegbuyi

[@andyp8464]

Rico is such a slow starter, but once he gets going, it is brutal

[@rkchoka101]

He get his distance and timing

[@lee4847]

He's a true warrior

[@dopedrums]

It's his strategy. It's common to use first round to feel each other out, measuring distances and stuff.

[@Roman-cl1no]

He’s feeling out his opponent finding the distance and finding patterns it’s not smart for a fighter to go all out in the opening round

[@andyp8464]

@@Roman-cl1no though if you have the luxury of 5 rounds it's fine but not in a 3 round match

[@sondernm.neuermanuelneuer4516]

When do you see such a muscular heavyweight with more gas tank than many other flyweights. You can clearly see he is training brutally for that endurance

[@Surtac100]

What’s amazing to me is the durability of Rico. Eats bombs from every heavyweight and manages to take it and keep grinding till the end.

[@yeh2319]

who says it’s because of his training? Do you think he is the only heavyweight that trains hard? I bet there are some that train even harder . It comes from other factors.

[@serbisch5458]

[@evelynoronan9175]

Rico, a complete fighter! Having an iron chin, leg and body strength to absorb the opponent's heavy bombardment, awesome and lethal combos of the left jab and overhand right,and accurate fast leg kicks, possesing ring intelect with natural clinching abilities preparing for his knee striking capabillities and a full gas tank to go the distance.

[@bluesdealer]

Wow! He just keeps looking better and better. No fluke here... this man is a true champ!

[@cphillps1749]

This is my favorite Rico fight The combinations and boxing to leg kick combos he throws are just Insane

[@ThePeacePlant]

Yeah, it's the most I ever seen him do in a fight

[@jhonsmith6900]

Now that's a fight. One clinch only now that's non stop action. Go Glory!!!

[@donnie6178]

Reason Rico is so successful is that he has a GREAT SECOND WIND. Once that kicks in he's on another level.

[@joejo6969]

I can't understeand the criticism on Verhoeven. He put a show on technique everytime with combos. People who say he is boring don't understand a shit about muay thai/ kickboxing. He is an artist

[@marctripon9796]

bro people want to see show, people want to see blood, k.o's etc . He is a good fighter but you cannot compare him with Bad Hari , Peter Aerts., Rey Seffo, Bonjasky etc. Look at his fucking ko percentage he has like 20 something k.o percentage in heavyweight kickboxing wtf u mean he is not boring?

[@wessongroup]

and he can take a punch

[@thurgrime5037]

@@marctripon9796 true, this is a sport of adrenaline and blood. F.e top successfull fighters like rico and mayweather are really good at winning a match but it doesn't make them exciting to watch or enjoy like those fighters you just mentioned. its like watching a ping pong or tennis trying to score eachother. in the end we cant blame them for trying to do whatever brings them the belt within the rules though.

[@Nick-ii3ux]

@@thurgrime5037 I see what you're saying but he's nothing like Floyd. He walks forward and pressures the whole time but is calm and measured in his approach

[@nicholash.2300]

Ive wondered the same thing but he is just one of those guys that people just hate no matter how much he wins.

[@stretfordender321]

This was a great fight imo. Adegbuyi's boxing looked very sharp but he was worn down and overwhelmed by the more diverse offense of Verhoeven who mixed in kicks and knees a lot more effectively while also boxing well. Verhoeven's right push kicks to the body and leg kicks after punch combinations (the signature move of the old Dutch Kickboxers) were especially effective.

[@Chief2Moon]

They both have my respect

Ricos cardio for that weight is amazing 😱

[@JimmyPtheman]

Awesome fight. Rico has excellent technique for a heavyweight and his endurance is very good. At his age he will only get better and his power will improve.

[@Ulas_Aldag]

Iam a bit late but finnaly a verhoeven fan. He is an artist, viciously pressuring and using every opening. Watching him makes me excited.

[@thesupervader400]

What an awesome fight,awesome display of technique by Rico Verhoeven.

[@ValariaxSword]

I’m surprised this didn’t end in a leg kick KO. Home boys legs must have been in shooting pain by the end.

[@ThePeacePlant]

I think Rico has an advantage in fights because his body is so thick with muscle. It's almost not fair

[@sherwinzaragosa7344]

In my perspective, in this fight I think Rico's thinking "why knock him out if you can torture him more" Rico's just brutal with those leg kicks

[@misi1979]

Amazing how so tall and huge guys can fight so quickly and stamina and spectacular technique and combinations. Glory doing a good job as K1 but I miss so much K1 tournaments and GP

@Uno Qualsiasi arabs are white as well, and somalis as well depending on how you define white. In general whitness is club that keeps inviting new poeple every 25 years. With other words mean nothing. You average Romanian has more in common with Bernjamin than Rico or an Italian.

[@salutnarvalo6967]

real champion, real sport spirit !

[@peterflorino9016]

Rico is something special, no doubt. I would like to see him throw more leather. i would imagine his ratio is 4 kicks to one punch. but i appreciate the art of this sport is to use both technically and he does that rather well.

[@iluvatar9185]

The way I see it (maybe wrong) Both are very good athletes. But Rico wanted to avoid the harder punches of Benjamin. Benjamin relies a lot on his front leg to box hard. That's why Rico will not try to power-box him too much. He punches very quickly and blinds Ben. Then shifts wheight to impact the front leg with a big low kick. In round 4 you can see Ben shifting his weight to the backleg a bit more (pain in the front leg ?) aaaand... gets lowkicked in the backleg XD . Rico has a very "stick to plan" attitude. His preparation must have been very specific. And his corner must have given good advices during match. Both athletes are very very strong. But well... One olan worked better than another i guess ?

[@ThePeacePlant]

He's a good guy and all but his weight is put on his body in a different way than most of the people he fights, just look how thick his body is and especially his legs. I think he has an advantage against a lot of people because the way he is built, it's kind of not fair. Even though the people he fights are in weight class they are built totally different than Rico

Rico physics is very different from so many heavyweight fighters. Very strong leg, body,arms etc. Many can through him but he can observe anything. However, fighters like Hari etc could have those power punch but not strong enough leg that's why he lose twice himself with Rico. Fighters too must have powers to observe but not only powers to throw.
