It's been known for some time that GLORY are heading to Istanbul, Turkey on April 6 to hold GLORY 6 and recently word got out of a huge match-up on the card.

Daniel Ghita and Gokhan Saki will fight on the card, in a rematch of their fight from 2010 which was a complete war that saw Saki walk away with a decision win in an extra round. This is a huge fight for the heavyweight division, with the #2 and #3 fighters in the division facing off. As well, it's one of the best possible fights to put in Turkey with Gokhan Saki headlining in a major match-up.

Pierre Andurand confirmed the news on Twitter and from what else he said, it also looks like the winner might face Semmy Schilt for the GLORY heavyweight title. Both Saki and Ghita are coming off losses to Schilt at the GLORY Grand Slam on December 31 in Japan.
