Following the presser, during with Hari promised to knock Verhoeven out in the first round, Hari refused to participate in the post-presser staredown. Instead he elected to walk off the stage.
"I think this already shows his class," Verhoeven said of Hari’s antics. "I think this is a very disrespectful way to act. But in a way it’s every man for himself."
GLORY: Collision takes place on Dec. 10 in Oberhausen, Germany.
