On the other hand, Glover is an absolute warrior and it would be a fairytale ending to his career if he could win the belt. Both fighters are just amazing ambassadors for the sport, can’t wait to see the fight.

This man is a true definition of kill or be killed. Unless he is knock out cold, his opponents are always in a vulnerable state. He is more dangerous when he gets hurt because he comes at his opponent like a zombie when the alarm rings and hurting him will not stopped him unless you take his head off his shoulder. What a fighter, what a heart.

But the heart Glover has is way bigger than any skill set, he has a do or die mentality, this man gets rocked in almost every fight and get in to spots where its usually over, but not with Glover , he survives and comes on top. Massive respect and I real feel happy for him more than any other fighter winning a title.
