In the main event, middleweight champion Simon Marcus faces Alex Pereira.
Marcus (47-3-2) is riding a three-fight win streak including a split decision victory over Jason Wilnis at Glory 40: Copenhagen in April where he reclaimed middleweight gold. The Canadian fighter has won five of his last six fights. Pereira (36-6) is coming off a knockout victory over Maycon Silva at WGP Kickboxing 40 last month in Brazil.

Verhoeven (51-10-1) heads into this matchup on a seven-fight win streak, including notable victories over Errol Zimmerman and Badr Hari. The 28-year-old has only lost once since 2013, amassing a 13-1 record. Silva (19-12-1 MMA) will be making his professional kickboxing debut and hasn’t competed since a second-round knockout loss to Vitaly Minakov at Fight Nights Global 68 in June. “Bigfoot” has gone 1-8 with one No Contest in his last 10-fights and he hasn’t won a fight since August 2015.
