Davit Kiria entered this fight with a professional kickboxing record of 23-8-0 (12 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.1 super welterweight in the world, he has already faced twice van Roosmalen loosing both fights, in 2011 and 2013 (=Roosmalen vs Kiria 2), but after this bout he managed to defeat Andy Ristie winning the Glory lightweight title (=Ristie vs Kiria).
His opponent, Robin van Roosmalen, has an official record of 43-14-3 (14 knockouts) and he entered as the No.3 in the same weight class, he suffered his last defeat at the end of 2013 when he faced Andy Ristie in the final of the Glory lightweight tournament (=Roosmalen vs Ristie); after that bout he came back to win in 2014 beating Marat Grigorian (=Roosmalen vs Grigorian).
