One of the most popular heavyweights in the world is set to make his much-anticipated return to action. Jamal Ben Saddik (36-9, 29 KO) will step back into the ring for the first time in over two years in February 2025.
The 34-year-old is a former title contender and the 2018 GLORY heavyweight tournament champion. His long-standing rivalry with Rico Verhoeven is arguably the biggest in GLORY history.
Fans can register now for presale and receive information of the date, location, and opponent for Jamal Ben Saddik’s return.
Ben Saddik holds career wins over Guto Inocente, Junior Tafa, Errol Zimmerman, Remy Bonjasky, and Rico Verhoeven, and has competed all over the world under the GLORY banner from Japan to the United States to France and to the Netherlands.
Known as ‘The Goliath’, Ben Saddik returns to an exciting GLORY heavyweight division which sees a host of new names emerge in his absence. Fighters like Levi Rigters, Tariq Osaro, Bahram Rajabzadeh, Antonio Plazibat, Sofian Laidouni, Ionut Iancu, and Uku Jurjendal, have all truly made themselves known among the most thrilling division in the world.
