Glory 30 goes down May 13 at Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario, California, and will be broadcast on both UFC Fight Pass and ESPN3, though the event hasn’t been without a few roster changes along the way.
Glory 30’s main card, which streams live on ESPN3 starting at 12 a.m. ET/9 p.m. PT, is slated to be headlined by newly crowned middleweight champion Simon Marcus defending his title against UFC veteran Dustin Jacoby.
Also penciled in for the event is a four-man, one-night welterweight tournament. Francois Ambang will take on Daniel Morales in the first bout of the bracket, while Casey Greene will square off against Richard Abraham in the other. The two winners will lock horns in the tournament final.
A heavyweight scrum between Chi Lewis-Parry and UFC veteran Carlos Augusto Inocente Filho was supposed to be the co-featured bout of the main card. However, Lewis-Parry recently sustained an injury in training and has since been replaced with promotional newcomer Brian Douwes.
Filling in the co-headlining slot now will be Marat Grigorian taking on Djime at lightweight.
Joe Schilling will look to finally settle the score against Jason Wilnis in the “SuperFight Series” undercard’s featured bout. Schilling first clashed with Wilnis at Glory 24, where Schilling won via technical knockout after a foot injury rendered Wilnis incapable of continuing.
