In the night’s main event, women’s super bantamweight champion and No. 1 pound-for-pound kickboxer Anissa Meksen put her belt on the line against former champion Tiffany van Soest. The pair met twice previously, with France’s Meksen beating van Soest by decision in both bouts. They clashed most recently at GLORY 64 in March.

Also on the card, multiple-time heavyweight title challenger Benjamin Adegbuyi clashed with D’Angelo Marshall.
