Milos Cvjeticanin targets Glory throne of Mory Kromah: "I’m taking what’s mine"

On June 13, it all kicks off in Rotterdam Ahoy as Mory Kromah and Milos Cvjeticanin finally face each other. Two heavyweights, one title and unfinished business.

What was postponed months ago due to an injury now feels bigger than ever. Not only because of the world title, but because of what is at stake: power, status and a new hierarchy in the heavyweight division.

Kromah speaks like a champion but feels the pressure

Mory Kromah, the 26-year-old Amsterdam fighter representing Guinea, has held the GLORY heavyweight crown since this year. He succeeded Rico Verhoeven and now faces his first title defense.

He sounds confident. He calls himself the new king and sees this fight as the beginning of a series of defenses. Kromah also points to their previous meeting in 2024, where he defeated Cvjeticanin. In his eyes, it is clear: this will not be a different story.

Yet there is tension underneath. Because while Kromah wants to show stability, his opponent comes in with a very different plan.

Cvjeticanin doesn’t want revenge but a change of throne

Milos Cvjeticanin is not thinking about revenge, but about takeover. The Serbian, who was named GLORY fighter of the year last year, openly speaks about a new king. And he means himself.

That is not empty talk without foundation. During the K-1 World GP 2024 in Sarajevo, he already showed how far he is willing to go. As a reserve, he unexpectedly entered the tournament and won the title. That moment changed his status.

He brings that same mentality to Rotterdam. Cvjeticanin does not see this fight as a missed opportunity from February, but as the perfect stage to take over power. "I will become the new king," he says, and already hints at it on Instagram by posting playful photos about himself and Kromah.

A fight that is more than just a title bout

The clash is part of Glory Collision 9 in Ahoy, where the eyes of the kickboxing world are focused. What makes this fight special is the context. Kromah faces his first real test as champion. Cvjeticanin is chasing the restoration of his reputation and more.

Their previously planned final did not happen due to a broken toe of the Serbian. But even that night, he still won two fights before he had to withdraw. That detail now hangs like a shadow over this fight.

Four months later, everything is different. No more excuses, no more delays. Just two fighters who know that after June 13, only one story will remain.
