GLORY heads to Bulgaria for the first time with GLORY 89 this Saturday, which features Badr Hari vs. Uku Jurjendal as one of nine fights. Originally scheduled to step into the ring against James McSweeney at GLORY 88 in a Heavyweight Grand Prix qualifier, Hari forfeited due to the Marrakesh–Safi earthquake that happened in his homeland, Morocco. The Moroccan-Dutch fighter was then re-scheduled against a new opponent in Jürjendal, the Estonian who has alternated between wins and losses in his GLORY tenure thus far.
Also featured is a featherweight championship fight between Petch and David Mejia. Petch recently returned to the win column with a decision against Ahmad Chikh Mousa at GLORY 86 this past May. His upcoming challenger, Mejia, is currently on a four-fight win streak that includes finishes of Lukas Mandinec and Dennis Haddad.
