2010 has started very well for Semmy! In april he went to Yokohama Japan to fight against Errol Zimmerman for the Super Heavyweight K-1 and Semmy won in three rounds.

Both fighters are giving a great show, but it looks like Semmy improves in every fight as his stance and left jab become more and more effective. Errol Zimmerman went three rounds with jumping high kicks trying to land a right or left hook landing some good body shots. Semmy is just being semmy, blocking every attack pulling up his knee and blocking most of the punches. Semmy Schilt wins the fight by decision, it was a nice fight to watch and the audience definately loved to see these two Golden Glory warriors at work.

Semmy Schilt and Golden Glory want to thank Golden Glory Romania for bringing sparring partners to Holland and always helping with the preperation when Semmy is scheduled to fight!
