GLORY 20 has received a compelling lightweight fight, as the kickboxing promotion has announced that champion Robin van Roosmalen will rematch Andy Ristie at the April 3rd event.

Roosmalen and Ristie met for the first time in November, 2013, and the latter won the encounter via a first round, knockout.

Since then, Roosmalen (33-6) has gone on to win two straight bouts, and in November, he decisioned Davit Kiria to become GLORY’s lightweight champ.

Ristie (44-4-1), on the other hand, has won three consecutive bouts since he was stopped by Kiria last March.

The lightweight title fight will headline GLORY 20, which will be hosted by the Dubai World Trade Center.

The card will also feature a featherweight bout between Gabriel Varga and Mosab Amrani for the vacant championship, and a middleweight contender tourney.

The main card will be broadcast on SPIKE.
