Recap Glory 107: Chico Kwasi new double champion after victory over Wisse

Glory 107 at the RTM Stage delivered a historic night for the kickboxing world. Chico Kwasi made history by becoming a double champion after his victory over Donovan Wisse in the middleweight title fight.

Historic night in Rotterdam

Glory 107 on April 25 at the RTM Stage will go down in history as the night Chico Kwasi crowned himself double champion. For the Dutch audience, it was an emotional rollercoaster, with local hero Donovan Wisse having to give up his middleweight title to the ambitious challenger.

Main fight: Kwasi takes the title from Wisse

The long-awaited main fight between Donovan Wisse and Chico Kwasi fully lived up to expectations. Wisse, defending his title on Dutch soil, started strong with his characteristic forward pressure. The first round was entirely for the Dutch champion, who repeatedly cornered Kwasi with powerful combinations.

However, Kwasi showed why he was feared as a challenger. In the second round, he found his rhythm and began to use his superior reach and timing. His counters became sharper, while Wisse had to take more risks to maintain his early lead.

The third round was decisive when Kwasi landed a perfect left hook that made Wisse stagger. Although the Dutch champion stayed on his feet, the momentum had definitively shifted. Kwasi controlled the remaining rounds with smart tactics and clean techniques, ultimately earning him a unanimous decision. With this victory, he added the middleweight title to his existing championship, making history as a double champion.

Undercard delivers spectacle

Although Glory has not released a full fight card for this event, we know that the undercard fights perfectly warmed up the audience for the main event. The RTM Stage provided, as usual, the perfect setting for an intimate yet explosive kickboxing experience, where every technique and every contact was felt by the crowd.

Despite the disappointment in the main fight, Dutch fans saw plenty of spectacle, with several finishing opportunities and technical highlights characteristic of Glory events.

Standout of the evening

Without a doubt, Chico Kwasi was the standout of Glory 107. His tactical adjustment after a tough start and the way he dethroned the experienced Wisse shows why he can now be considered one of the most complete fighters in his weight class. The fact that he now holds two titles automatically makes him one of Glory's most valuable assets.

Kwasi's performance was impressive not only because of the victory but also because of how he performed under pressure on Dutch soil against a beloved local hero.

Outlook and conclusion

With Kwasi as the new double champion, a world of possibilities opens up for Glory. The organization now has a star who can dominate two divisions and provide various big money fights. For Wisse, this means a return to the drawing board, although his performance certainly does not disqualify him from future title opportunities.

Glory 107 once again proved why the organization is the global standard for professional kickboxing entertainment. From the intimate setting at the RTM Stage to the level of competition – everything was perfect this evening in Rotterdam.
