Match Details
- Date: 2025-06-14
- Time: 1:00 PM UTC
- Location: GLORY 100 (Kickboxing event, but odds available as MMA)
Game Overview
Heavyweight contest between rising prospect Iuri Fernandes (9-1, 3 KO) and experienced Samuele Pugliese (14-2, 5 KO). The fight is technically a kickboxing reserve bout for GLORY 100, but available odds from bookmakers (e.g., Parimatch) list it as MMA. Both fighters are seeking to impress and potentially secure a spot in the main tournament.
Key Factors to Consider
- Fernandes is an up-and-comer with a recent strong record and fewer pro fights. Pugliese is more seasoned with more wins and a higher KO/top level experience. Both have low loss counts.
- No prior head-to-head history between Fernandes and Pugliese.
- No reported injuries for either fighter as of event previews.
- Event is a high-stakes tournament reserve, which may add pressure. Bookmakers offer MMA odds, but official event is kickboxing, so style adjustment may be needed. No significant external factors otherwise.
- Both motivated to make a statement and potentially earn a tournament spot. Reserve fighters often fight aggressively for visibility.
