Held at Evolution Muay Thai in downtown Manhattan, Glory brought a few of their fighters to demolish some pads and let the New York City press know about this weekend’s epic event.

Emanating from the Hammerstein Ballroom this Saturday night, Glory 9 features an eight-man light-heavyweight tournament, as well as some huge super fights featuring some of their biggest names. At the press workout, we got some footage of Daniel Ghita, Tyrone Spong, and Wayne Barrett going to work with their trainers.

Full Coverage of Glory 9 New York

Check out Ghita’s flexibility with his high kicks, and Spong’s speed and power! If you want to see just one of the three fighters rather than the whole thing, check out the videos below.


Doors at Hammerstein Ballroom will open at 5 PM EST and the first preliminary bout will begin at 6 PM. The main card will begin at 8 PM and will be aired on CBS Sports Network at 1:30 AM EST.
