“Frank Warren confirmed that the representative of Ukraine intends to enter the ring against Rico Verhoeven”, — write: sport.ua
It is expected that the representative of Ukraine will enter the ring against the legendary kickboxer from the Netherlands, Rico Verhoeven, who held the GLORY title for 12 years.
During this time, he became the leader of the organization in the number of victories and defenses and held the belt for 4,418 days! Rico has one victory each in boxing and mixed martial arts.
– Not Fabio Wordley, not Tyson Fury, not Daniel Dubois – none of them will now get a chance to fight Oleksandr Usyk. Is it Rico Verhoeven now?
– Yes, Usyk is going to fight against Rico. Therefore, this means that Alexander may not defend his title until the end of 2026, and all these mandatory contenders, most of whom work with us, are not going to sit and wait, – Warren said.
