蒙特卡罗, 摩纳哥 (十月 27, 2016)- The future of the new World MMA Association (WMMAA) Argentina is bright with unlimited opportunities for future growth, largely due to Argentina’s youths continuing to drive increased consumption of healthier lifestyles.
FAAMM, the Argentinean MMA Federation, restructured its organization under the leadership of president Diego Fernandez to earn WMMAA Pan-American Division’s fastest growing federation to date.
One of my main objectives was to share the organization’s (FAAMA) story with the government and the private sector community to bring its competitive advantages to light,” Fernandez explained in an interview with ENLACE. “I also leveraged the WMMAA skills and resources to help guide the due diligence and restructing to emerge with the proudly earned name, WMMAA ARGENTINA.
Transforming the organization from an association to a federation and now known to the world as WMMAA Argentina was the largest progressive step we’ve completed to date in the organization’s history. The business model as the new WMMAA Argentina is very straightforward: our job to help our nation’s athletes.
The new Argentina has a prominent footprint with many qualified board members. The new WMMAA Argentina is well positioned to offer customized solutions that drive increased value, developed from a mere structure provider into a services and solutions organization for the sport in all aspects.
WMMAA Argentina has solid reporting, industry-leading analytics and repeatable methodologies, plus hard-working members, collogues and full support from the WMMAA Pan-American Division.

I know that this fight will be a war. I’ve been working hard with 罗奇 and I’m excited to show what I’ve learned and get my frustration of waiting off my chest.

These are fights that the fans want to see and pose challenges that these fighters are eager to face. They will have a great stage at the Galen Center at USC and on SHOWTIME to prove that they are amongst the best in the world. I couldn’t be coming back to the sport with a better fight card and I know that the real winner on 十二月 10 will be the fans.
We’re very excited to present this highly anticipated featherweight world title fight between Jesus Cuellar and Abner Mares,” 说 汤姆·布朗, TGB促销总统. “I’m thrilled to work with Richard Schaefer on the debut promotion of Ringstar Sports and look forward to many more world-class collaborative events.

And in Charlo vs. 威廉姆斯, our latest in a series of significant bouts at 154-pounds, we have a prime example of how great this sport can be. These are major fights between the top players in two of boxing’s deepest divisions.
迅速崛起的明星出布宜诺斯艾利斯, 阿根廷, 奎利亚尔 isworking toward his 12th consecutive victory when he gets in the ring to defend his 126-pound title against Mares.

He continued to rise in the pound-for-pound list with victories over 安塞尔莫·莫雷诺丹尼尔 Ponce De Leon to win world titles at super bantamweight and featherweight. The 30-year-old won three straight fights leading to a massive showdown with 狮子座圣克鲁斯 去年八月. Mares showed the same explosiveness that made him a multiple-division world champion in a thrilling “年度扑灭” candidate which he lost by majority decision. The always-exciting Mares will enter the ring for the first time under the tutelage of renowned trainer 罗伯特·加西亚and strength coach 路易斯·加西亚 as he seeks to capture another world title.

The 26-year-old is coming off of a career-best, hard-fought decision over crafty former world champion 奥斯汀鳟鱼 in May in Las Vegas. Training with 罗尼盾 在休斯顿, Charlo will look to silence Williams and stake his claim as the best in the division.
其中最备受推崇的年轻恒星在拳击, 威廉姆斯, 的 费城, will be getting his first world title opportunity. The 26-year-old has dismantled opponents on his way to accumulating an unbeaten record.

The former champion Fortuna and the unbeaten Douglas will meet in a 50-50 fight that could put the winner in a position to fight for a world title soon. Fortuna is known for his aggressive style while Douglas looks to impress against his toughest opponent to date.
这里是战士不得不说训练营, 彼此更:
How has training camp gone for this fight?
哈维尔财神: 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.
奥马尔·道格拉斯: “训练一直进行得非常顺利. 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 中美. 奥林匹亚) 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: “我想一个世界冠军的争夺. 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.

RALEK GRACIE SET TO RESUME MMA CAREER WITH BELLATOR

 

SANTA MONICA, 加利福尼亚州. — (十月 26, 2016) - Bellator MMA是自豪地宣布签署 拉莱克·格雷西 (3-0) to an exclusive multi-fight, multi-year contract.

仅在 22, Ralek made his MMA debut in Japan, where he defeated his opponent, Kastuyori Shibata with a devastating armbar. Nearly a year later, Ralek returned to Japan for his second MMA fight and again was victorious, this time defeating Gahdzhiev Alavutdin with an armbar from the mount. 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.

“I was bred for hand-to-hand combat over generations and I simply can’t ignore that during my physical prime. My destiny is calling me and my opponent is irrelevant, 它的时间去,” 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.

拳击教练奥兰多奎利亚尔在第五街回到未来. 健身房

MIAMI (十月 26, 2016) — 国际知名拳击教练 奥兰多奎利亚尔 已经回到原点, 回到著名的 5 圣. 南海滩 的健身房, 他十几岁时曾到那里学习,现在每周训练六天的拳手.
出生于哈瓦那, 古巴, 奎利亚尔三岁时,他的家人在迈阿密定居,奥兰多在那里读完高中. 作为一名业余拳击手, 奎利亚尔清楚地记得观看拳击手的情景 5 圣. 健身房如 卡修斯·克莱, 威利Pastrano, 维尼·科托 弗洛伦蒂诺·费尔南德斯, 还有传奇训练师, 兄弟 安吉洛克里斯·邓迪.
“我观看并学习了, 尽我所能地捡起,” 奎利亚尔说,. “现在, 我发现自己在工作 5 圣. 过去六周的健身房. 这是一次难以置信的经历. 每天, 你永远不知道谁会走进那里的门. 多年来,它一直是世界上最好的拳击馆之一 50 岁月. 从日期追溯到 穆罕默德·阿里, 由于其丰富的历史和精彩的拳击比赛,拳手们被吸引到这个健身房, 以及南海滩餐厅所在的地区, 俱乐部和海滩. 温暖的, 潮湿的天气也让格斗者更容易通过跑步和训练来减肥.
“(所有者) 迪诺斯宾塞 正在进行 5 圣. 健身房的传统. 我在那里的每一天都令我兴奋. 混合种族群体在那里训练,这里对人才有着巨大的吸引力. 每周有三天陪练 – 我称之为斯帕拉玛 – 欢迎大家挑战自我. 拳击比赛比很多电视比赛都精彩.
“5 圣. 体操教练 盖伊Laieta 过去五年来一直试图说服我加入这个团队. 我曾多次与迪诺交谈过, 表达了我训练战士的愿望 5 圣. 健身房. 他说, '我们开始做吧。’ 的成功 5 圣. 如今的健身房与所有权有很大关系. 迪诺热爱拳击,而且非常热情好客, 这会渗透到他的员工和战士身上. 时刻保持良好的氛围!”
奎利亚尔 (Cuellar) 前往拉斯维加斯 1976 和, 在他意识到成为一名拳击手并不符合他的最大利益之后, 他开始在那里训练战士 1981 从约翰尼·加西亚的健身房出来. 一年后, 他将自己的基地转移到了布鲁克林,并开始从另一个拳击偶像那里训练拳手, 格里森的健身房. 在 2000, 他在迈阿密定居.
最著名的世界轻重量级冠军首席教练 格伦 - 约翰逊, 奎利亚尔还与未来的冠军合作过,例如 尼古拉斯·沃尔特斯, Rances缪厄斯兰迪·拉拉, 以及 路易斯·佛朗哥, 艾伦·戴维斯胡安·卡洛斯·戈麦斯, 举几个比较著名的例子. 今天, 他是几位顶级拳手的首席二把手,包括 安东尼奥·塔弗.
在整个拳击界被公认为优秀的老师, 奎利亚尔的成功主要归功于他对拳手的个人训练, 关注他们的个人需求,而不是给予所有战士相同的指示和关注.
“每个战士都需要个人和具体的工作来补充他们的天赋才能,” 奎利亚尔解释说. “你不能以同样的方式教导所有战士. 我专注于我所说的“旧学校与新学校的结合”. 老派是预先和个人去的 15 发, 新学校就是要打更多拳, 更多的脚步运动和来自外部的战斗. 我教 多芬斯: 防御 + 罪行. 拳头不是维生素, 不应该采取任何措施. 拳击只不过是一场反应力的较量; 一名战士与另一名战士, 但真正的技巧是战斗机如何利用他的反应能力. 我教我的战士如何将围裙变成雷区。”
拳击在奎利亚尔的生活中发挥了巨大的作用. 回到 5 圣. 健身房只是他独特生活的又一章.
“我靠我的战士而活,” 奎利亚尔总结道. “每一次胜利都是我最自豪的时刻. 没有大的或小的胜利, 每一次胜利都是一个快乐的时刻,因为我和我的战士在训练营期间所做的所有努力和牺牲。”
奥兰多·奎利亚尔很高兴回到了未来.
