Moroccan Tyjani Beztati defeats Semeleer and dreams of world title

Tyjani Beztati made a spectacular entrance into Glory’s welterweight division by defeating former world champion Endy Semeleer in a bout at the Topsportcentrum in Rotterdam. The jury returned a clear verdict in favor of the “Wonderboy,” awarding him the victory by unanimous decision.

From the start, Beztati, 25, took control of the first round. Semeleer, who was late, never managed to reverse the trend. The Dutch kickboxer of Moroccan and Surinamese origin showed off his technical skills, dodging his opponent’s attacks to chain together precise and powerful strikes.
