Everyone at work thought it was a new car! I should also mention the car was fixed in a short period of time even though there was significant damage. The car was able to be fixed and John and team did a fantastic job with the vehicle. Another one of our vehicles was in an accident not too long ago and he managed us through that experience as well. This is not the first interaction I have had with John. I cannot tell you how comforting it was to have John be there during a difficult time. He was kind, considerate, informative and responsive to all of our questions and concerns. Accidents are never a pleasant experience but I was fortunate enough to have John Dennison assist me through the process. He also works closely with the British heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury, who he credits with making his jab into the highly effective weapon it is today.Recently my son had an accident where fortunately he was not hurt but the car was determined to be a total loss. He has a wide arsenal of attacks and a tight defense. His record also now includes wins over Errol Zimmerman, Gokhan Saki and Daniel Ghita, plus victories in the GLORY 11 CHICAGO Heavyweight Championship Tournament and the GLORY 77 Heavyweight Tournament.Ī very intelligent fighter, Verhoeven is creative and focuses a lot on technicality. Before joining the organization he had racked up wins over experienced international opposition such as Hesdy Gerges, Ben Edwards and Filip Verlinden. Verhoeven was marked out as a prospect several years before his 2012 debut for GLORY. At 16 years old he was so big that he couldn’t find opponents his own age in competitions, and had to face adults. At the same time, it became clear that he was a natural heavyweight who would grow to a considerable size. After school his friends would head to the park to play football or ride bikes while Verhoeven would accompany his father to the dojo for training.Īs he got older he moved into kickboxing. Training was a consistent part of Verhoeven’s life growing up and his father was strict about it. His father, a karate black belt, brought young Rico to the dojo and started him on a path which, years later, would take him around the world and to the top of the heavyweight pile. Rico Verhoeven was five years old when he first entered the martial arts.
