Hi Bas, it's a pleasure to talk to you. Let's make a brief introduction for our readers. How did you get involved in martial arts?
Bas Boon: When I was 15 years old I started taekwondo, later I took up full contact kickboxing and kicking 8 times above the waist.

What were the key moments that gave such a boost to Golden Glory, making it the leading fight team in Europe, next to Red Devil?
Bas: Please do not compare Red Devil with Golden Glory. Gambaryan was beaten by Fatih (Kocamis) and Zentsov was beaten by Chalid (Arrab) and Alistair (Overeem). This was all before Fedor was introduced to Red Devil by me. Golden Glory started at 2H2H number 2, where all GG fighters were victorious and many journalist therefore wrote about Golden Glory.

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question (and I know it is), but who exactly is this guy and where should we know him from? When I first saw it I was thinking it was a nickname I didn't know Bas Rutten had.

He's Golden Glory's manager. He represents all the fighters that fight out of gg, like Kharitonov, Semmy, Overeem, ect. He's a very opinionated guy and he's not afraid to speak his mind lol.
