United Glory event March 23 moscow fight card
From Bloodyelbow
We knew United Glory would be running a show in Moscow on March 30 headlined by Semmy Schilt plus Jerome Le Banner vs. Errol Zimmerman and Mark Miller vs. Sergei Kharitonov. They've now filled out the card. Starting at the top, Schilt will be facing Le Banner teammate Brice Guidon. Guidon is a good fighter, but he'll be facing a stiff test in the 4 time K-1 champion. They also added Robin van Roosmalen vs. Dzhabar Askerov in what should be a good fight.
The card will be split between kickboxing and MMA fights. The most interesting fight on the MMA side sees former UFC Heavyweight champion Ricco Rodriguez face fellow UFC veteran Denis Stojnic. Stojnic had the tough assignment of facing Cain Velasquez in Stojnic's UFC debut, then following that fight up with Stefan Struve. He's 4-0 since leaving the UFC and there is talk that a strong showing here could get him called back up.
As always with these United Glory shows, be cautioned that the card is definitely subject to change. Past shows have seen a tremendous amount of cancellations and reshuffling up to the very last minute, though they did improve that trend somewhat in 2011. We'll see how this one ends up, but for me, as long as I get to see Semmy
