Simon Marcus vs Jason Wilnis - Glory 40

Simon Marcus recaptured his Glory Middleweight title his last time out at Glory 40. Now he’s set to defend it again as Glory opens up their China office for Glory 46 this Saturday (Oct. 14). He’ll face off with Brazilian Alex Pereira.

Jason Wilnis stops Simon Marcus in 3rd round! New Glory Middleweight Champion!

Holy crap, what a fight! Wilson puts Marcus down 3x (well, not really) and takes the title off the champion. Great performance from Wilnis.

Simon Marcus vs. Jason Wilnis 1

Whatever the circumstances, Simon Marcus is now the Glory middleweight champion. And hopefully having him as champ means Glory will be able to run stronger events on this side of the planet. And his first title defense will be against Jason Wilnis in the main event of the Super Fight Series at Glory 33 this Friday (Sept. 9th).

Simon Marcus vs Joe Schilling 1

The dubious nature of the fight aside, Simon Marcus walked away from his last fight with Artem Levin the Glory middleweight champion. He’s set to face his first challenger at Glory 30 this Friday (May 13th). His opponent will be Dustin Jacoby.

Quarter-turn to knee.

Dustin Jacoby, the unlikely contender, gets a title shot against Canadian Simon Marcus.

Why Artem Levin had 2 points deducted at Glory 27

From the Glory rules:

Grabbing, or holding for any reason other than to immediately attack with a knee strike (or strikes) is a foul; this includes holding to rest, or grabbing an opponent in order to stop them from striking.

There was a lot more to the fight than this, but tumblr limits how many gifs I can include in a post :)

Two main event messes in two days.

Glory and UFC both had very strange fights at the top of the card this weekend.
