I've been looking at this fight again... There is nothing to blame to Rico. Cookie just didn't came to do what he should've done. With every fight comes a certain risk. However, judging from the side line is always the easiest things to do, but the interim champ should have had the awareness that this chance of performing on this podium may not come again very soon. Credits to Verhoeven, he deserves the respect, certainly after the recovery of a heavy knee injury. Not every single fight is as spectacular as we want, but being the champ for a decade shows some true sportsmanship of an athlete. OSU!!👊
Watching fights like this makes me really miss the great K1 era. Aerts, le Banner, Abidi, Hoost, Ignashov, Sefo, Feitosa , mighty Mo and all other great fighters. This is nowhere near that.
He looked very slow and predictable. At one point rico even seen the counter before osaro even threw it. Might be his only title shot and he did nothing! Disappointed
This fight is disrespectful to all fans who gave their hard-earned money to watch this fight. Cookie seemed like he didn't want to be there, the first three rounds were absolutely horrible.
Not sure how "Incredible" that is. I dont watch Glory that much, but didnt this Osaro start training kickboxing recently? Like few yrs ago? What does that say about the competition Rico is facing? Kickboxing is dead sport, golde era is long behind us
@@grgov2239like I said, he’s doing it for years and years. And any combatant can ‘easily’ take over Glory in that case, like Badr Hari wanted to - lol.
One of the main successes of Rico's fights is the little knee strikes he places as soon as he holds on to his opponent. And he gives another one when the referee separates them. His opponents no longer have any legs at all in the 4th and 5th rounds.
@@Mauvaiseodeur Rico is ver stiff. Im a Croat and talented in many sports. Cro Cop, Fedor etc. movement was like fluid. But Rico is stiff, strong. Compare Ernesto Hoost fluidness to Ricos stiffness. But u cant see it, if ur not talented. I can feel movements and learn fast. When he moves he.looks like me after 2 weeks. Im not braging. He has other qualities like dursbility, chin, big legs. Its weird. He doesnt look impressive like Cro Cop, but still wins the title. A prime 2003 Cro Cop wud destroy him come on..
@@Baltuz9 you exaggerated the analogy too much, Rico has done MMA before and is already training Boxing specifically👊 He can fight both Fury and Ngannu, and I think he'll beat them both.
So weird to not see Ricco landing his devastating lowkick ! Those made him so special , It looks like an other Ricco , but due to the surgerie i guess. We also can see here he's rusty beacuse the Ricco 2 years before would've KO Cookie badly ...Cookie in the match almost looks like a dead fish! Hope to see Ricco in better shape against stronger oppenants because it's always a pleasure so see him fight !
Yeah that would be nice! I was just thought the (almost) same, UFC. But yours is better for sure! Many fights in UFC (NOT ALL!!) are kinda like this fight but One Championship is 99% from start till end full contact. More spirit and the will to win!
Since Rico has been training with Tyson Fury(boxing), also Tom Aspinall(mma) you can see since all of them have been Training a lot and the that the Proof is in the showing of All three Athletes!!! Kings of their respective Sport. JMO
При всем уважении к Верхувену, не считаю его самым лучшим.... Хотя так сложились обстоятельства, что все топы кикбоксинга ушли на пенсию или сильно сдали, чем парень из Нидерландов и воспользовался. Помню времена К1: Боньяски, Манхуф, Словински, Сэфо, Хаг, Аертс, Шилт, Крокоп, Леша Игнашев, Саки, ЛеБаннер, Чой, Сапп (тогда ещё вызов Тайсону бросал), Хуст, Фейтоса, Геркес, ударник-румын Моросану, Самедов, Абиди, Зиммерман, Лащенко... Уверен, многие помнят времена Оверима в К1. Вот были бойцы!!! Кто не смотрел , гляньте бой Словински - Яхия, это было нечто. А сейчас какие-то однотипные бойцы, однотипные бои... ничего интересного... Но Верхувен трудоголик, благодаря чему и добился результата. Молодец!
I’ve only done amateur kickboxing and after the tournament my hands and legs hurt so bad 😂 I was so worried about hurting my face or ribs I forgot about everything else
@@geraldtraveller9804 How have they tested Plazibat but not Rico lol? Rico has pretty much fought everyone there is for him to fight. Also, Rico is much more expensive so when he does fight it needs to be a bit bigger event usually and those are harder to do as often for Glory.
That wasn't a domination. A person doesn't dominate a punching bag. There was literally no fight in Osaro. Reminds me of the Francis and Derrick Lewis fight in the UFC. Clash of heavyweights, neither really doing anything spectacular.
Osara didnt know what to do, his skill level is too low to show Rico any adversary. hes just a tall big strong boy who cant kickbox. Sad to see our favourite sport pass
@@PatkaBoy831Yeah, Rico was so good the other guy went a whole round without throwing a punch. Rico's jedi mind tricks, hypnosis and ground game were truly amazing.
Верхувен хоть и хороший спортсмен, но очень однообразный, каждый поединок одна и та же история. Хоть бы кто нить вышел похожий на Оверима, Хари, Боньяски и других легенд, к кикбоксингу хоть интерес бы вернулся у людей.
This is not a boring fight😂 Both of these guys have the power to end the fight in one strike, also verhooven was smart by neutralizing him in the boxing range in clinch.
Rico is de kampioen van de armoede. En dat al 10 jaar lang Mijn god wat een dramatisch niveau is dat Glory H.W kickboksen .Vroeger waren dit gewoon beginnende A-klasse of middelmatige A -klasse vechters .Absoluut geen "wereldtitel "kandidaten.
maybe osaro thought that it was going to be easy, but hes relative new in the scene so he has a lot to learn maybe hes gonna be the next holder who knows
Hi rico im nederlands i speak nederlands but i speak now english that another people this can see im your biggest fan im want to be fight net so good are you
Osaro was very demotivated after the 2nd half and lacked precise combinations. If he thinks he will become champion, he will have to KO Rico because he is favored by the Glory promotion, the last time he lost was in China to an unknown person, since then they have not let him fight anywhere else.
Rico is a beast end off all these negative comments and none off you would have the minerals to step in there with him technically sound and his power is underated
Elslam Halikum At least you remind them man Allah bless you because I am muslim Right now All what we can do Right now is to pray For them till Allah realise them INS but to be Honest this the minimum from what we can do as brothers we can not see them like this And leave them Thank you All And I hope the whole world keep praying for Them❤ INS.

i agree...
That was the golden age of kickboxing
My favourite was Jerome le Banner
Dot forget: Cro Cop, he never went for points, but (T)KO.
Andy Hug too.
K-1 and RISE are pretty awesome rn
Osaro didn’t look like he wanted it
he can´t no skills
@@jimmylee2853❤a

he looked like he always looked, no suprises
@@jimmylee2853Bahram Rajabzadeh🥊👊🏼
After the great K1 champions, watching a fighter like Osaro is degradation. How did he even get a title fight? He's just a log.
He did kind of earn it, but yea he definitely didn't perform here.
He got the title fight by beating another KO master: Plazibat.
@@M4rutabroken arm. Plazibat wins 9/10 times.
Ppl acting like bob fucking sapp wasn’t beating legends like Ernesto from just walking at people face first hammer fisting 😂😂😂
Rico you are the best!
Rajabzadeh vs Rico, could be great match
Can't wait🥊👊🏼
Be sure!
This fight is disrespectful to all fans who gave their hard-earned money to watch this fight. Cookie seemed like he didn't want to be there, the first three rounds were absolutely horrible.
This is the pinnacle of kickboxing?
Not Rico’s fault. Cookie was incredibly lackluster.
❤❤ He said for Gazza for Peace. Wou
ريكو بطل حقيقي
شكرآ لدعمك اهل غزة
Rico, du bist der beste. Unmenschlich, wie man so einen Druck aufbauen kann. Rico du bist ein Ausnahmesportler und sehr sympathisch.
Osaro came for a free meal.
HAHAHAH 😆 who is he fighting next
Incredible, this guy is doing this for years and years! What a BOSS!

Man imagine Cro Cop from 2003.
He would beat everyone, maybe even Rico

Verhoeven are a legend !! More ten years he is the world champion
This was just target practice for Rico 😑
If 'unmotivated' and 'defeated' had a face => COOKIE💯
Rico should do MMA and Boxing now, there's nothing left to prove in kickboxing. Rico vs Ngannu 👊 Rico vs Fury 👊
@@bgforeman4474 dude those are completely different sports.. thats like saying Messi should prove himself in Tennis now.
@@Baltuz9 you exaggerated the analogy too much, Rico has done MMA before and is already training Boxing specifically👊 He can fight both Fury and Ngannu, and I think he'll beat them both.
Would like to see Rico with smaller gloves. How he would do he is a big powerful hunter. Also like I see him in Thai boxing Big fan of Rico.
His opponent even were not close level to him..but does not matter, its +1 for Rico
the nostalgia of seeing that blue floored ring alone...masato,kido,kraus,souwer,leko etcccc
So weird to not see Ricco landing his devastating lowkick ! Those made him so special , It looks like an other Ricco , but due to the surgerie i guess.

Oscaro look like an amateur fighter ( maybe amateur will give more than him ) even against king Rico
Who is he fighting next🥊👊🏼
Один из самых унылых боёв, которые я когда-либо видел
Я согласен с вами на 100 %.
I'd like to see Rico compete in One Championship, win there and he'd be a real multi champ!!
Yeah that would be nice! I was just thought the (almost) same, UFC. But yours is better for sure! Many fights in UFC (NOT ALL!!) are kinda like this fight but One Championship is 99% from start till end full contact. More spirit and the will to win!
@@893. to f UFC, Rico has nothing to do there, would be a shame fighting in that stupid organization.
I'd love to see him in the muay thai division, that would be interesting
@@allhailtheCODgod Why the Muay Thai and not the Kick-box? division?
I Do like the 4-ounce gloves!
@@allhailtheCODgod he doesn't look like ONE muay thai material.
RICO RICO VS NGANNOU
Rico better learn to keep his damn hands up for that fight.
Ngannou wonf do it money wont be good enough
Ngannou ha c'est une blague il se ferait sodom....par Rico
What a classy victory speech
Rico should come over to One FC.. Thats where competition is.
Since Rico has been training with Tyson Fury(boxing), also Tom Aspinall(mma) you can see since all of them have been Training a lot and the that the Proof is in the showing of All three Athletes!!!
Kings of their respective Sport.
JMO
rico did some effort to make it exciting, Osaro was in the woods, looked lost
He was acting as if he was gonna make it exciting.
😂😂😂
Seems like a fixed fight
Rico Verhoeven is the best boxing mat in the world
as usual unstoppable
Rico is a legend mentioning Gaza situation
Rico really is the King of Kickboxing and he has amazing character and sportsmanship...Mad respect for the King!❤💯👊
that was the rico baddest shape ive seen
Rico 👍💯❤️
Hebben jullie beelden van return of the boys in 2008? Mn vader(lloyd van dams) zit daar in & ben benieuwd naar de beelden

There is no Undisputed title in Glory when there is a winner in the Openweight K1 tournament
There weren’t a lot of good fighters in the tournament though.
It’d be cool if they cross-promoted like with RISE.
respekt Rico you talk about Gaza.. 🤲
and you are really a KickBoxing King.. 👍
They just had a championship sparring match and rico cruised to a comfortable victory wow 😂
Rico ist the best 💪🏼🏆💪🏼
I’ve only done amateur kickboxing and after the tournament my hands and legs hurt so bad 😂 I was so worried about hurting my face or ribs I forgot about everything else
Welcome back King Rico!
Rico need more fights
glory would not do that they want a duct champion rico should have 2-3 matches a year look at plazibat jamal they test them but not rico
@@geraldtraveller9804 How have they tested Plazibat but not Rico lol? Rico has pretty much fought everyone there is for him to fight. Also, Rico is much more expensive so when he does fight it needs to be a bit bigger event usually and those are harder to do as often for Glory.
@@geraldtraveller9804absurd comment 😅
Rico sei grande!!! Non solo nelle arti marziali ma anche per quello che esprimi nelle interviste!!! Bravo !!!
The announcer reminds me of Lambiek...lol.
Lombastic like the cartoon character too!
That wasn't a domination. A person doesn't dominate a punching bag. There was literally no fight in Osaro. Reminds me of the Francis and Derrick Lewis fight in the UFC. Clash of heavyweights, neither really doing anything spectacular.
You just can’t doubt Rico🎉
People are missing the point. This fight was bizzare and Osaro was being very out of character. Something had to be going on.
Yeah, like Rico being that much better lol.
Osara didnt know what to do, his skill level is too low to show Rico any adversary.
hes just a tall big strong boy who cant kickbox.
Sad to see our favourite sport pass
@@PatkaBoy831Yeah, Rico was so good the other guy went a whole round without throwing a punch. Rico's jedi mind tricks, hypnosis and ground game were truly amazing.
Yes, only Plazibat can win agains Rico
The best Rico 💪👊👑

Best boy Rico 💣💣

Все крутые кикеры в ufc уходят из glory со временем. Перейра, Адесанья, Чикадзе.
Там и бабок и медийности больше.
Saaiste gevecht van de eeuw
Damn, it's even worse than I remembered. What a mismatch. 0 strikes landed in round 3 is about as bad of a stat as it gets.
Glory and Rob, take a look please at Alin Nechita! He's your next undefeated champion like Rico.
Krilia...he is on ONE Fc
Good job Rico
Rico ❤❤❤
This is not a boring fight😂
Both of these guys have the power to end the fight in one strike, also verhooven was smart by neutralizing him in the boxing range in clinch.
As a Moroccan i support Rico like if he is a Moroccan , i have big respects to this man and i am sure that all Moroccans do
How osaro became this fight???????
GO RICOOOO!!!!!!!!!LETS GOO NEDERLAND

Very good RIco
❤️❤️💕👍👍👍👍💪💪💪
yaaawwwnnnn
Good fight he did not get a chance to get into his rythm. It is really easy to spot when Rico is going for a kick though.
Osaro is on vacation I suppose.
Osaro is kinda of a guy that says the idea of a 5 round championship match tire himself out, and then follow through with it.
maybe osaro thought that it was going to be easy, but hes relative new in the scene so he has a lot to learn maybe hes gonna be the next holder who knows
Ricco reste Champion du Monde il est le meilleur chez les poids lourds....pour moi, c'est incontestable

lol cookies'lowkicks without hips/ his guard look like a beginner
HAHAHAH 😆 who is he fighting next🥊👊🏼
Weldone Rico 👊👊👊
Osaro knew deep inside that he wasn't ready to be the Champion
В конце четвëртого у Рико связка хорошая не прошла
He talked about being hungry, yet he wasnt even hungry. SMH.
Cookie was actually cooking. He learned a lot I'm sure.
That first judge apparently really loves Osaro. Had the fight close going into the 5th round the rest of the judges all had Rico winning comfortably.
No pain no gain & No impact here!
Osaro was very demotivated after the 2nd half and lacked precise combinations. If he thinks he will become champion, he will have to KO Rico because he is favored by the Glory promotion, the last time he lost was in China to an unknown person, since then they have not let him fight anywhere else.
