2 Star RatingReview by AllTheBestFights.com: 2021-01-30, some good exchanges but it is not enough to get three stars: the kickboxing fight Rico Verhoeven vs Hesdy Gerges 3 gets two stars.
The Glory Hw champion Rico Verhoeven entered this fight with a professional record of 56-10-0 (17 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.1 heavyweight in the world. He lost to Andrei Herasimchuk in 2015 (Verhoeven vs Herasimchuk) but then he has won 12 consecutive fights beating Badr Hari in his last one (bout ranked in the top 10 Users’ kickboxing Fights of the Year 2019, Rico Verhoeven vs Badr Hari 2). If you want to watch one of Rico’s best fights, we suggest Daniel Ghita vs Rico Verhoeven, match rated with four stars and also ranked in the top 10 Users’ kickboxing Fights of the Year of 2013.
His opponent, Hesdy Gerges, has a kickboxing record of 51-19-1 (24 knockouts) but he lost five out of his last eight fights. His last loss was against Mladen Brestovac in 2017, after this bout he faced Badr Hari, but it ended in a no contest (since both fighters tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs, Badr Hari vs Hesdy Gerges 2), and he beat Mohamed El Bouchaibi in 2020. In their previous two matches Rico defeated Gerges via split and unanimous decision, in 2011 and 2012 (Hesdy Gerges vs Rico Verhoeven 2). This third fight is the semi-final of the 2021 Glory heavyweight tournament and it is on the undercard of Artem Vakhitov vs Alex Pereira – Glory 77. Watch the video and rate this fight!

4 Star RatingReview by AllTheBestFights.com: 2021-01-30, high pace, tough exchanges and spectacular finish: the fight Cedric Doumbe vs Murthel Groenhart 3 is one of the best kickboxing fights of the year 2021 and it gets four stars!
The former WAKO Pro Mw and current Glory Ww champion Cedric Doumbe entered this fight with a pro kickboxing record of 74-7-1 (44 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.1 super middleweight in the world.

If you want to watch one of Doumbe’s best fights, we suggest Harut Grigorian vs Cedric Doumbe, match that ranked in the top 10 Users’ kickboxing Fights of the Year of 2019.
His opponent, the former Glory Ww and 2012 K-1 World Max champ Murthel Groenhart, has a record of 69-24-3 (40 knockouts) and he entered as the No.3 in the same weight class. He fought twice in 2019 losing to Alim Nabiev (Murthel Groenhart vs Alim Nabiev) and defeating Troy Jones (Murthel Groenhart vs Troy Jones). Among the best fights of Groenhart we suggest two bouts rated with four stars in 2012, Artur Kyshenko vs Murthel Groenhart and Murthel Groenhart vs Marc de Bonte, and a match ranked in the top 10 Users’ kickboxing Fights of the Year of 2018, Murthel Groenhart vs Mohammed Jaraya. In their previous two matches Doumbe lost to Groenhart in 2016 (Murthel Groenhart vs Cedric Doumbe I) but then he won the rematch in 2017 (Cedric Doumbe vs Murthel Groenhart 2). This third fight is valid for the Glory welterweight title (Doumbe’ third defense) and it is on the undercard of Artem Vakhitov vs Alex Pereira – Glory 77. Watch the video and rate this fight!
