In what was one of the last true holdouts of the old Golden Glory guard left in the GLORY ring, Nieky Holzken has decided to depart the promotion after contract negotiations fell through.
“It didn’t work out with glory im sorry fans they offered me a contract and i didn’t feel good about it.so i said no to it. i supposed to fight in #glory59 in the new contract.
In my old contact they gived me 3 fights plus 1 optional.i fought 2 fights,an canceled 1 because of an injury,and now they say they count the canceled fight as one i fought.that that was in the contract and i didn’t see that.and then they say (glory) we can have a new contract and then they offer less money i wont accept.even that i lost some fights on points.im still very popular in kickboxing and sell many many tickets and they now.and thats wy i think they wanted me to go fight in the arena.@glorykickboxing i was 4 years worldchampion who helped them to grow world wide.i was there from glory 1 till now.
Even when i beat valtellini for the first world title,i get injured and after 3 months they took away my title,and you have to defend a title in one year not 3 months.
But i didn’t complain and keep training and after 6 months training i could fight again and i say i wanted to fight for my title again.then they say i have to fight a contender tournament again to make chance to fight for the title again witch was mine.so again i didn’t complain and i fight in virginia the tournament and unfortunately for glory i won again with a big ko against raymond daniels and after that fight i beat daniels again for the title.
Im sorry fans but i wont quit.maby if i get a good offer from some other organizations i fight there in the future and if not i will stick to boxing
And no hard feelings about glory because i had good years with them.and its al about business.
But i have to ley my fans no”
