Artem 'The Lion' Levin and Simon 'Bad Bwoy' Marcus faced off for a third time this past Friday night, headlining the GLORY 27 CHICAGO event at the Sears Center in Chicago, Illinois. Their previous two encounters - one under Muay Thai rules, the second at GLORY 21 SAN DIEGO - were swamped in controversy. Would this one be different?
It would not. Instead it would turn out to be the most controversial of the trilogy. Levin was given a very dubious knockdown count in the first round and then twice had a point deducted by the referee for excessive clinching.
