Ricky “The Gladiator” Glenn (21-6-1 MMA, 3-3 UFC)
Featherweight (145lbs): 3-2 (UFC)
Lightweight (155lbs): 0-1 (UFC)
Ricky Glenn (no longer Rick) has been in the UFC since 2016 and is a veteran of the World Series of Fighting organization where he won the featherweight title. Glenn’s first fight in the UFC was his only fight at lightweight with the promotion (thus far) and he earned a Fight of the Night bonus though it was in a losing effort. Glenn has been at 145lbs in the UFC ever since.
Rick Glenn missed weight ahead of his last fight against Kevin Aguilar. Glenn came in at 148.5lbs. for the fight and on top of that, he lost the bout via unanimous decision. Rick is now 32 years old and with a height of 6’0″ tall and a 70.5″ reach he will likely continue to struggle with his weight cut. And as a result Glenn has elected to move up to the lightweight division starting with his bout against Joaquim Silva at UFC Vegas 29.
