Osaro didn’t look like he wanted it

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.

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.

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.

Osaro came for a free meal.

Thanks rico you are in our hearts from morocco

This is the pinnacle of kickboxing?

Incredible, this guy is doing this for years and years! What a BOSS!

Congratulations. Mr.Rico Lucky was driving you in bali with your family , im so proud , meet a legend 🙏

This was just target practice for Rico 😑 If 'unmotivated' and 'defeated' had a face => COOKIE💯

Rico, du bist der beste. Unmenschlich, wie man so einen Druck aufbauen kann. Rico du bist ein Ausnahmesportler und sehr sympathisch.

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.

Один из самых унылых боёв, которые я когда-либо видел

Rajabzadeh vs Rico, could be great match

ريكو بطل حقيقي شكرآ لدعمك اهل غزة

Man imagine Cro Cop from 2003.

Enorm respect voor Rico

Thanks rico to little talk about gaza , you didn’t celebrate, respect, love you and your victory ❤❤❤

the nostalgia of seeing that blue floored ring alone...masato,kido,kraus,souwer,leko etcccc

I'd like to see Rico compete in One Championship, win there and he'd be a real multi champ!!

His opponent even were not close level to him..but does not matter, its +1 for Rico

Hebben jullie beelden van return of the boys in 2008? Mn vader(lloyd van dams) zit daar in & ben benieuwd naar de beelden

Verhoeven are a legend !! More ten years he is the world champion

Rico should come over to One FC.. Thats where competition is.

❤❤ He said for Gazza for Peace. Wou

as usual unstoppable

What a classy victory speech

They just had a championship sparring match and rico cruised to a comfortable victory wow 😂

rico did some effort to make it exciting, Osaro was in the woods, looked lost

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 !

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!

There is no Undisputed title in Glory when there is a winner in the Openweight K1 tournament

Rico is a legend mentioning Gaza situation

RICO RICO VS NGANNOU

People are missing the point. This fight was bizzare and Osaro was being very out of character. Something had to be going on.

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 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

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.

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

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.

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.

ce am vazut acum nu este o lupta! este o bataie la gradinita RUSINE! TOTI ASTEPTAM UN MECI DE VALOARE

Rico Verhoeven is the best kickboxer

Rico Verhoeven is the best boxing mat in the world

Rico vs Plazibat when fight?

You just can’t doubt Rico🎉

Rico sei grande!!! Non solo nelle arti marziali ma anche per quello che esprimi nelle interviste!!! Bravo !!!

Rico 👍💯❤️

Welcome back King Rico!

Rico need more fights

Oscaro look like an amateur fighter ( maybe amateur will give more than him ) even against king Rico

Rico ist the best 💪🏼🏆💪🏼

The best Rico 💪👊👑

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.

respekt Rico you talk about Gaza.. 🤲 and you are really a KickBoxing King.. 👍

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.

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.

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

Best boy Rico 💣💣

Glory and Rob, take a look please at Alin Nechita! He's your next undefeated champion like Rico.

How osaro became this fight???????

Saaiste gevecht van de eeuw

The announcer reminds me of Lambiek...lol. Lombastic like the cartoon character too!

Rico ❤❤❤

Seems like a fixed fight

Cookie was actually cooking. He learned a lot I'm sure.

Behrem Rejebzadeh❤

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.

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

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.

❤❤❤❤

Good job Rico

RICO ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Rico Plazibat ??? Finaly?

This was one of the worst fights I have seen. no cap

ONLY boring match of Rico, but he ´s the champion !! and Tarek must do more because him its a challenger !!! not rico !! and Tarek sleep on the ring, one left and one right its impossible vs big champion of Rico !!!

Osaro knew deep inside that he wasn't ready to be the Champion

He talked about being hungry, yet he wasnt even hungry. SMH.

lol cookies'lowkicks without hips/ his guard look like a beginner

Love kickboxing, been following Glory since it started. I can't say there have been many 'bad' fights, but this is up there with the worst of them. Osaro didn't belong in there with Rico on the night and he lacked discipline because he couldnt do anything to Rico, so his temper was flaring. I'm not hating, but this was not Osaro's best and we were all expecting him to come out increasingly more technical and heavy handed from round 2 onwards and give Rico a real challenge for the title. Joe Valteleni's tone of voice was saying it all. I'm glad Rico won after being out for so long. 👍🏻

Very good RIco

GO RICOOOO!!!!!!!!!LETS GOO NEDERLAND

Osaro is on vacation I suppose.

Ricco reste Champion du Monde il est le meilleur chez les poids lourds....pour moi, c'est incontestable

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.

Krilia...he is on ONE Fc

Plazibat is pissed... I gave or lost my place for this, to gave Cookie the shoot for title, Plazibat would gave his heart in this fight!!!

yaaawwwnnnn

Osaro was hurt at the stomach, that’s what Rico’s corner told him between R3 & R4.

One of the most boring, heavyweight kickboxing fights I've ever seen. As I've always said, the lighter divisions are more entertaining.

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

Weldone Rico 👊👊👊

Cookie just not in Rico's league. Rico is one of the all time greats that has withstood the test of time. He has few weeknesses.

The COOKIE CRUMBLED very dissappointed in him,he had the chance to WIN the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT title it doesn't get any bigger than that and his effort was tepid,lank and boring i don't think there was an occasion when he WENT FOR IT, And please don't mix OUR sport with political of social issues !

❤️❤️💕👍👍👍👍💪💪💪

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

Greatest HW Kickboxer ever, just Amazing longevity!
