Following the announcement of the GLORY 18 main card for November 7th in Oklahoma, USA the Superfight Series prelims have also been revealed.

Although unannounced officially by GLORY, the Grand Box Office website has the entire Superfight series listings, which includes a colossal heavyweight encounter between Hesdy Gerges and Benjamin Adegbuyi.

5th ranked Gerges (45-13-1) and 6th ranked Adegbuyi (21-2-1) are considered largely two of the best heavyweights on the planet, and this superfight will surely produce a future heavyweight title challenger.

In a recent interview with GLORY, Egyptian Gerges stated he wanted to avenge his two previous decision losses to; current GLORY Heavyweight champion, Rico Verhoeven and failing that, a fight with #1 ranked Daniel Ghita.

Adegbuyi (Romania) is on a seven-fight win streak, which include knockouts of Dmytro Bezus and top ranked UK fighter Daniel Sam in GLORY.
