Australia's Steve Moxon signed with GLORY last year and is set to make his debut for them on March 23 against Jordan Watson. First, he'll have another fight next month against another formidable opponent.

Moxon will fight France's Yohan Lidon, the former It's Showtime champion at 73kg and a veteran of the international scene in Muay Thai and kickboxing. The fight will take place in Kensington, Australia and sees the return of promoter Tarik Solak with his A1 World Combat Cup events. The fight will be for the A1 World Middleweight title and the event will be the start of the A1 World Grand Prix 2013 and features the first heat.

Last year it was hinted that the A1 World Combat Cup series would return and this seems to be the first of more to come. $100 000 is on the line so it's a big opportunity for some fighters to make a name for themselves and get paid.
