With the rising popularity of MMA competition in North America and around the world it's no surprise that GZG is looking to push it's MMA production GLORY into the limelight.
Rumours are abound that as part of this promotion GLORY is trying to secure the services of several top GZW talent for a series of competitive appearances, noteably Lord Leon Taylor who has a tae-kwon-do and jujitsu background and has competed professionally in MMA tournaments before. Other names which have been tossed around include Lord Jon Kellar, who has experience in kickboxing and judo, and Spyral, who was recently rumoured to be in special training.
There appears to be reluctance on the part of President Seth Richards to allow his talent, especially his World Champion Taylor, to compete in MMA, however, due to the risks involved. Kellar is also unlikely to compete any time soon since he is already occupied in promoting his new movie "Fight to the Death" with Jet Li, and has only just returned from injury.
