Punika apa pejuang wis ngomong bab latihan camp, each other and more:
How has training camp gone for this fight?
Javier Fortuna: “I’m having an excellent training camp. We’re working hard and figuring out how to break down my opponent. Hector Bermudez does a great job and I’m very comfortable training here in Boston. I’ve gotten great sparring with guys like Will Madero and Alden Whatley. I’m going to be just as strong in the final round as I was in the first.
Omar Douglas: “Latihan wis arep banget uga. I was already working and staying sharp, because I knew a big fight was on the horizon. Training in Delaware with Douglas Petitford has been great for me and I’ve had incredible sparring. I’ve been in there getting rounds with (2016 U.S. Olympian) Gary Antuanne Russell and a veteran in Hank Lundy.”
What do you think of your opponent and how do you see this fight going stylistically?
JF: “Douglas is a prospect who has looked pretty good coming up. He wants to get to where I’ve been. He might be looking past me. I think that his style fits my style perfectly. I’m going to have openings and I just need to take advantage.”
OD: “Fortuna is a very decent and explosive fighter. He’s a former world champion and I expect him to stand up and get back what he thinks is his. He wants his rematch with Sosa and we are in each other’s way. He’s a frontrunner in the ring. He will try to start strong and I am prepared for whatever he brings to the table. Whether he boxes or fights me. I will make adjustments.”
What kind of problems does your opponent pose?
JF: “The only problem that he will pose is if he doesn’t show up and fight. I’m ready for anything he can bring, so I hope he’s ready to give the fans a show.”
OD: “He moves well. I can’t let myself get off-balanced trying to chase him. He’s awkward but I know that my jab will neutralize his strengths.”
What are you looking for in the future if you can get the win on November 12? What are your goals for 2017?
JF: “I want to fight the best out there. My first choice is a rematch with Jason Sosa so that I can win my belt back. I’d love to fight Vasyl Lomachenko. I don’t think he’s fought a guy quite like me yet.”
OD: “I want to fight for a world title. That’s the goal. He is a former champion who just lost his title and 2017 is my year to make a run for a title.”
How have you improved as a fighter since your loss? Do you believe a win over Douglas proves you’re still one of the best in the division?
JF: “I have learned a lot of things since I lost. My defense and my confidence in myself has improved. If I can beat a guy who is 22-0 and make it two wins over previously unbeaten fighters, then I think I’m right back in contention. He’s still considered a prospect so I think whoever wins will be a contender at the top of the division.
How does fighting in Philadelphia motivate you, having fought there in the amateurs and being from nearby Delaware?
OD: “In the amateurs I was one of the only guys from Delaware. I had a lot of obstacles. I’ve been fighting against Philly’s best fighters for years. Philadelphia is where I achieved my first goals in the sport and it will always be special to me to fight in Philly.”
Why do you believe you’ll be victorious on fight night?
JF: “With the work that I’ve been putting in, I know that I will be ready on fight night. I’ve been through too much not to leave the ring victorious.”
OD: “I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life and I believe I am the hungrier fighter. He doesn’t want it as badly as I do. I’ve been waiting in the shadows for a long time. I have all the skills necessary to get the job done.”

These two bouts led to a highly anticipated matchup with Kazushi Sakuraba, where again the Los Angeles native left “The Land of the Rising Sun” with the victory. That was the last time Ralek would fight under MMA rules, until now.

My destiny is calling me and my opponent is irrelevant, iku pindhah wektu,” Gracie said. “It’s crazy to see where fighting has come since my childhood of seeing everything unfold from behind the scenes. Bellator is really stepping up the opportunities fighters have to compete more often and in different countries and I’m excited to join that movement and test my style in this modern MMA era.”

It has yet to be determined which weight class the 31-year-old will participate in, but expect to see him lace up the gloves for Bellator MMA in early 2017.

MIAMI (Oktober 26, 2016) — Pelatih tinju sing kondhang internasional Orlando Cuellar wis teka lengkap, bali menyang wong sing kondhang 5th St. Gym ing Pantai Selatan, ing kana dheweke nate ngunjungi nalika remaja kanggo sinau lan saiki nglatih para pejuang saka enem dina seminggu.
Lair ing Havana, Kuba, Kulawarga Cuellar urip maneh ing Miami nalika umur telung taun karo Orlando urip ing kono liwat sekolah menengah. Minangka petinju amatir, Cuellar jelas ngelingi nonton petinju ing 5th St. Gym kayata Cassius Clay, Willie Pastrano, Vinnie Singkat lan Florentino Fernandez, uga pelatih legendaris, sedulur Angelo lan Chris Dundee.
“Aku nonton lan sinau, njupuk okehe,” Cuellar ngandika. “Saiki, Aku ngerti yen nggarap 5th St. Gym sajrone nem minggu kepungkur. Wis pengalaman luar biasa. Saben dina, sampeyan ora bakal ngerti sapa sing bakal mlaku liwat lawang kono. Wis dadi salah sawijining gym tinju paling apik ing saindenging jagad luwih saka 50 taun. Wiwit jaman biyen nganti Muhammad Ali, para pejuang wis kepincut menyang gym iki amarga sejarah sing apik lan sparring sing hebat, uga wilayah sing duwe restoran Pantai Selatan, klub lan pantai. Anget, cuaca sing lembab uga ndadekake para pejuang luwih gampang ngilangi olahraga lan latihan bobot awak.
“(Sing duwe) Dino Spencer lagi nindakake ing 5th St. Tradhisi gym. Saben dina aku nengsemake. Klompok etnik campuran ana ing kana lan dadi tenaga bakat. Ana sparring telung dina seminggu – Aku ngarani Spar-a-rama – lan kabeh wong gelem nantang awake dhewe. Sparring luwih apik tinimbang akeh gelut TV.
“5th St. Pelatih gym Guy Laieta wis nyoba ngyakinake aku dadi anggota tim suwene limang taun kepungkur. Aku wis ngobrol karo Dino ing sawetara acara, nyebutake kepinginan kanggo nglatih para pejuang metu saka 5th St. Gym. Kandhane, 'Ayo ayo.’ Sukses saka 5th St. Gym saiki wis ana gandhengane karo kepemilikan. Dino kepengin banget tinju lan dheweke grapyak banget, sing ditrapake kanggo staf lan para pejuang. Getaran apik kabeh wektu!”
Cuellar mangkat menyang Las Vegas ing 1976 lan, sawise dheweke ngerti yen dadi petinju dudu kapentingan sing paling apik, dheweke miwiti nglatih para pejuang ing kana 1981 metu saka Gym Johnny Garcia. Setahun mengko, dheweke ngalih basis Brooklyn lan miwiti nglatih para pejuang metu saka ikon tinju liyane, Gleason Planet. Ing 2000, dheweke manggon maneh ing Miami.
Paling misuwur minangka juara kelas berat ringan dunia, pelatih kepala Glen Johnson, Cuellar uga kerja sama karo juara mbesuk kayata Nicolas Walters, Rances Barthélemy lan Erslandy Lara, uga Luis Franco, Harun Davis lan Juan Carlos Gomez, kanggo jeneng sawetara liyane misuwur. Dina iki, dheweke dadi kepala nomer loro kanggo sawetara pejuang utama kalebu Antonio Tarver.
Dikenali ing saindhenging tinju minangka guru sing unggul, Sukses Cuellar umume diarani latihan para pejuang kanthi individu, fokus ing kabutuhan pribadi tinimbang menehi kabeh instruksi lan perhatian kanggo kabeh pejuang.
“Saben pejuang butuh karya pribadi lan khusus kanggo nglengkapi talenta sing diparingi Gusti Allah,” Cuellar nerangake. “Sampeyan ora bisa mulang kabeh pejuang kanthi cara sing padha. Aku duwe spesialisasi ing sekolah sing diarani sekolah lawas. Sekolah lawas wis maju lan pribadi 15 babak, sekolah anyar babagan mbuwang pukulan liyane, gerakan sikil liyane lan gelut saka njaba. Aku mulang doffense: nimbali + pelanggaran. Punches dudu vitamin, ora ana sing kudu dijupuk. Tinju ora mung minangka perang refleks; siji pejuang mungsuh liyane, nanging trik nyata yaiku carane pejuang nggunakake reflekse. Aku mulang para pejuang babagan carane nggawe apron dering dadi tambang.”
Tinju duwe peran gedhe ing urip Cuellar. Bali ing 5th St. Gym minangka bab liyane ing urip sing unik.
“Aku urip liwat para pejuang,” Cuellar nyimpulake. “Saben kamenangan minangka wayahe paling bangga. Ora ana kamenangan sing gedhe utawa cilik, saben kemenangan dadi momen sing nyenengake amarga kabeh kerja keras lan ngorbanake aku lan pejuangku nalika latihan.”
Orlando Cuellar seneng banget amarga wis mbesuk mbesuk.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (Oct. 25, 2016) - Hey America!

Headlining the event, Phil “Mr. Wonderful” Davis is on the campaign trail as he prepares for one of the biggest fights of his career vs current Light Heavyweight Champion, Liam Gilluly.

 

In advance of the card’s main event, Bellator’s digital team collaborated with Davis and stand-up comedian, Adam Hunter, to produce a collection of six original digital campaign videos with a clear message that there is a better choice!

In the meantime, watch these “wonderful” clips below and see why Davis’ stance outside the cage will make MMA great again!

 

One of the more outspoken athletes in MMA, Davis comes in having won three consecutive contests and seven of his last nine. Saliyane, the 31-year-old has finished his opponent in half of his 16 career wins, including five submission victories. Davis earned his shot at McGeary and the highly coveted 205-pound belt with a key win over “King Mo” ing "Bellator 154: Davis vs. King Mo” sadurungé taun. A 13-fight veteran of the UFC, Davis will likely not be fazed by the bright lights of the Mohegan Sun Arena, in what is possibly the biggest challenge of his illustrious career.
