I'm wondering if you would like to watch a fight between Robin van Roosmalen and Mike Zambidis.

Of course, Van Roosmalen is the no1 in the world and Zambidis at the end of his career and not competitive as we used to know him.

But they have similar fighting style and Van Roosmalen is considered as the new Zambidis.

I think that this match would be attractive for the fans and everyone would watch it, even though it would be difficult for Zambidis to stand against his "successor".

Your opinion?
 
A prime Zambidis was an animal with a good chance of beating RvR, but there's no point in this matchup now.
 
Man if this was 2010 I'd be so into this fight. I love zambidis but I think RVR is just younger and a tad bit quicker. Zambidis still hits harder though. I love watching the zambidis vs chahid fight. By far the most entertaining fight I've ever seen.
 
A prime Mike Zambidis would be a very good Matchup.

But in nowdays,Zambidis dont have a chance,his prime passed...
 
It pains me to say this, but I think Zambo has been knocked out too many times. At this stage in their career, RvR is the superior version of two similar fighters stylistically and build/reach wise. Back in 2010-11 it would be pretty awesome to witness though.
 
I love Zambo but definitely agree that he is not in his prime anymore. That being said, this would still be a great fight imo, even today
 
What about 2006 Buakaw vs 2015 RVR?

Easy win by decision.

How about RVR vs Grigorian??

they already fought in glory 15,and Marat Grigorian should won this fight,but the judges gave the win to RVR

I can say if they fight again,it should be 50-50,both are on very good time and they made a very good fight on glory 15,who really won with a rematch are us :).

Both guys have all to defeat each other.
 
Zambidis is far past his best and honestly I believe this version of Roosmalen beats a prime Zambidis as well. He is bigger, more technical and has much better defence.
Roosmalen especially now would uppercut Zambidis into retirement
 
Zambidis was the more well rounded fighter imo.
Roosmalen is a one trick pony, but a really, terrific pony.

How was Zambidis ever more well rounded?
Zambidis was like a more technical version of Manhoef with a jumping knee now and then.
Zambidis was alwaysbasic he was just very good at those basic things it's exactly the other way around on the other hand Roosmalen has better defence, can throw straight punches, attacks at angles, uses uppercuts and is much more methodical.

How is Zambidis more well rounded? he was faster and while you claim that's what Roosmalen is zambidis was the terrific one trick pony. he also had major issues fighting southpaws

That Marat fight was a classic I'd like them to also have a rematch

Also they should get Mohamed Khamal and have a rematch in Morocco or somethingsomething

Iron challenge?

wait for a turkish vs Greek matchup.

His previous fight was against a Turkish fighter and Zambidis said it was the last time he faced Turkish.

It will probably be a Russian fighter.

Only Glory can arrange the match against RvR, just for "commercial" reasons.
