BOISE, Idaho – Rick Glenn is nervous about judges’ decisions even when a win is obvious, so at UFC Fight Night 133, he was anything about confident.

In the end, Glenn (21-5-1 MMA, 3-2 UFC) picked up a split-decision victory over veteran featherweight Dennis Bermudez (16-9 MMA, 9-7 UFC) in Saturday’s FS1-televised main-card bout at CenturyLink Arena in Boise, Idaho.

So, Glenn was a little concerned about the final verdict after such a closely contested bout?

“Oh, for sure – every time I go to a decision,” Glenn told MMAjunkie after the fight. “Even if I dominated the guy, I’m nervous. I don’t want to leave the decision in the hands of people that don’t fight, you know? It’s always nervous going to the judges.”

After 29-28, 27-30 and 29-28 scores went Glenn’s way, Bermudez was quick to blast the decision.

As for Glenn, who’s gone to a decision in his past six bouts (with a 4-2 record), the former WSOF champion wasn’t exactly how it would be scored. He didn’t even seem confident about his own tally.

“The first round, it could’ve been a 10-8,” the 29-year-old said. “I rocked him pretty good. I was pretty close to finishing him. And then I think he won the second round.

“The third round, it was kind of even, so…”

He then trailed off and shrugged his shoulders.

“I feel like I won the first and third,” he finally offered.

As for what’s next, with three wins in four fights and a pivotal victory over a longtime contender, Midwesterner Glenn is in good position for a marquee matchup, though he doesn’t have any specific opponents in mind. He just hopes it comes in December, when UFC on FOX 31 is scheduled for a trip to Milwaukee – not too far from his home state of Iowa.

“Get me on that card, please,” he said.
