AANGEBIED DEUR ROC NATION SPORTS + MIGUEL Cotto PROMOTIONS

Geale hosted a New York City media workout this afternoon at Mendez Boxing Gym in preparation for his title challenge against Cotto. Here’s what Geale, and his American promoter Gary Shaw, te sê gehad het:
Daniel Geale – Former Two-Time World Champion
“Cotto has trouble in stages against guys that move and use their reach. He knows that’s what I’m going to be doing and he’s going to be trying to counter that with aggression and coming forward. I’m going to use my abilities and not get caught up in his game plan.”
“The game plan is to go in and fight my fight. It’s not to get sucked in. It’s not to get caught up in what he [Gaar] is doing. It’s to do what I do best.”
“This is going to be a huge fight for me. Fighting a guy like Miguel who’s fought some of the greatest fighters is going to be a great test. We’re going in very confident.”
“I want this one badly. It’s something that we have wanted for a while and I’m extremely excited. I’ve got guys like Gary Shaw and my team at the Grange from Australia and they are working very hard behind the scenes. I’m just going to worry about my job and they do their job greatly. I just worry about getting myself in perfect condition.”
Gary Shaw – President of Gary Shaw Productions
“If Daniel wins, Cotto has a rematch clause, so if Cotto wants the immediate rematch then that’s what he gets. Indien nie, according to WBC, it would be GGG again, but it doesn’t make a difference. Daniel will fight anybody, oral. We went to Germany and fought Strum on his territory. He’s coming to New York which is Cotto’s town. It just doesn’t make a difference when you have a great fighter.”
“It’s going to be a great show and the fans are going to get what they want. Tune in for a great fight on Junie 6. It’s going to be a great night of boxing.”

Vroeër vandag, die bevordering aangekondig dat die volle stryd kaart vir die geleentheid.
In a highly-anticipated rematch, NEF MMA Professionele Liggewig Kampioen Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (10-8) takes on rivalJohn “First Class” Ray (2-7) in a non-title catchweight contest. Raio scored a victory over Boyington by rear-naked choke in their initial meeting in February 2014. That win, egter, was marred in controversy as Boyington contends the referee mistook his wave to his fans in the crowd as a sign of submission. Ongeag, Boyington and Raio will look to settle the score on Junie 13 in Lewiston.
NEF homegrown talent, en 2014 “Vegter van die Jaar,” Crowsneck BOUTIN (0-0) will debut in the professional ranks against “Die Junkyard Dog” Ryan Cowette (2-2) in 'n middelgewig bout. Boutin has developed over the course of three years from a street brawler to a well-disciplined martial artist. Cowette is the head coach of MMA Athletix and the preacher of Victory Church in Bath, Maine.
In other professional bouts: Jesse “Die Viking” Erickson (4-4) looks to follow up his commanding performance last month at “NEF Sewentien” with another victory when he takes on Zenon Herrera(0-0); “Onsplinterbaar 2.0” Derek Shorey (2-1) will also try to make it two-in-a-row when he meets Canada’s Jeremy DiChiara (1-0) in a bantamweight battle; en Elias “Danger Mouse” Leland (2-1) hopes to rebound from a loss last month when he fights Chad “Masjiengeweer” Kelly (3-2) in what many are predicting to steal the show on the professional side of the card.
“NEF XVIII” will mark the first time NEF has crowned a set of amateur champions. The amateur card will feature five championship title bouts. Among those bouts will be a heavyweight title fight between the popular Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (2-1) enRyan Glover (1-0). Glover won a 2011 state championship wrestling for Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine.
In another amateur title fight, Ricky Dexter (3-0) vierkante af teen Josh Harvey (3-1) for the lightweight championship. Dexter will represent Team Irish while Harvey will represent Irish’s Bangor-area rival Young’s MMA.
A women’s fight will also be featured on the amateur card withAlex Walker (0-1) die gesig staar Kendra Streeter (0-0). Walker thrilled the Lewiston crowd of more than 2,000 by “NEF Sewentien” last month with her “Stryd van die nag” performance against Randi Knowles (1-0).

Reebok Rebellie kan revolusioneer MMA soos ons dit ken
Deur: Rich Bergeron
Jy ken die Reebok stryd is om verhit wanneer mense prullenbak plekke van die bepalings van die transaksie beide letterlik en figuurlik:
Wat was meer vertel oor die voorval, al, was “Oom Dana” nie ingegryp het om gefrustreerd vegter te straf vir sy blatante minagting van 'n groot UFC sakevennoot. Dit was 'n waterskeiding oomblik vir die “Reebok rebellie.”
Wat kan Dana doen, na alles? Myles was eintlik trek 'n bladsy reg uit die UFC President se eie bemarking handboek. Jurie was wat in-jou-gesig offensief om sy argument te verkoop. Dana doen dit elke dag.
Hoër-profiel vegters konsekwent vryf Mnr. Wit op die verkeerde manier om hierdie dae wanneer dit kom by die Reebok deal, en al het hy Jury en Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone 'n slaagsyfer vir hul onlangse kritiek, Hy byt rug teen die hou van Brandon Schaub.
Daar kan 'n ander soort van vuurwerke in Julie wees wanneer hierdie raw deal neem amptelik effek en al die vegters wat nie saamstem met Schaub en Jury begin om hul kortsigtigheid besef. Sommige van diegene UFC vegters kan selfs nie spyt nie by hul eweknieë op die amptelike openbare plakkaatbetoging lyn wanneer dit eintlik sou saak.
Die ergste deel oor hierdie hele fiasko is die tydsberekening. Die Federal Trade Commission is weer berig ondersoek die UFC in die nasleep van 'n reeks van hoë-profiel klas-aksie-Anti-Trust klagtes hul pad kronkel deur die siviele howe.
Dit is moeilik om nie te bevraagteken of die wêreld se mees kragtige gemengde martial arts bevordering is te ver van sy grense in die manier waarop hulle probeer om elke aspek van 'n loopbaan 'n vegter se beheer. Dit lyk soos 'n baie slegte deal te ruil 'n bietjie van die geld en die reg om te veg onder die vaandel UFC vir die bloed, sweet en trane wat dit neem om te bly op die top van die MMA spel hierdie dae. Selfs te wees by die middel van die pak in die UFC is 'n heck van 'n uitdaging. Vegters word begin om hulself te vra wanneer die opgehoopte knoppe kneusplekke, ontwrigtings, geskeurde ligamente, gebreekte bene en harsingskudding geword so erg dat die geld nie meer saak nie.
Wat sal gebeur as 'n vloedgolf van die voormalige UFC vegters uit te vind dat die heerlikheid van vir die ondersteuners is nie betaling van die rekeninge en / of stuur hul kinders na die kollege het geveg hul harte uitgespeel? Wat gebeur wanneer die cushy mediese dekking verstryk en jou legendariese vegter status beteken niks vir die dokters en die hospitaal faktuur jy verregaande en astronomiese fooie aan jou gesond genoeg om te lewe tot die ouderdom te hou?
Vra Marc Coleman. Dit is nie mooi.
Hoe meer die UFC veg of vlug vergelyking draai in die rigting van wat geen vryheid om 'n entrepreneur en geen vermoë om jou eie merk te bou, die meer Scott Coker se selfoon gaan om voort te gaan om te lui die haak af. Ten minste in Bellator, vegters kan nog steeds hul eie persoonlike borge op hul kortbroek.
Hulle gooi nie al hul vegters uit vir die verlies van 'n paar gevegte in 'n ry, óf. Hulle het nie openbaar aan te spreek hul vegters in post-stryd pers konferensies vir nie om op 'n show. Hulle betaal wat hulle kan, en hulle het hul bes om net beskou as 'n UFC mededinger doen.
Phil Davis mag wees die eerste van baie UFC oorlopers wat kan begin om deursyfer in indien dit Reebok deal elimineer soveel inkomste en geleenthede soos dit klink soos dit sal.
Ek is eintlik teleurgesteld dat Viacom nie maak 'n groter druk om meer UFC vegters met meer winsgewende kontrakte te bekom, maar geen besigheid wil geld verloor. Dit is moeiliker vir Bellator massiewe inkomste verkry in ruil vir hul beleggings in hul vegters te danke aan die oorhoofse van doen hul eie produksie gratis televisie. Tog, op dieselfde tyd, Coker en Bellator se huidige bestuur lyk eintlik omgee 'n bietjie meer oor die mense wat die stryd te doen onder hul vaandel. Hulle weet beter as enigiemand wat jou borge kan jy regtig in die lewe bly.
Vegters wat hul vryheid waardeer en wil 'n bietjie meer beheer oor hul loopbane kan begin om die enigste UFC kompetisie as 'n baie groener weiveld sien in die nasleep van 'n eksklusiewe klere kontrak hierdie sneaker reus se. Wat veronderstel is om te lyk soos 'n groot stap vorentoe vir die UFC kan eintlik verteenwoordig drie treë terug vir hierdie organisasie wat reeds sukkel met gekanselleer en uitgestel gevegte hoofsaaklik as gevolg van 'n toenemende hoeveelheid opleiding beserings na bo vegters.
Natuurlik kan ons nie vergeet Voormalige UFC lig swaargewig kampioen Jon Jones glo gekraak 'n gehuurde SUV in die motor se 'n swanger vrou en breek haar arm voordat die toneel gevlug voet. Dit is nog 'n ongelukkige voorbeeld van die UFC nie genoeg omgee oor hul vegters. Hoe kon hulle nie herken nie hierdie man het 'n probleem wat aangespreek moet word 'n lang tyd voor hierdie tragiese voorval ontvou? Hoe kan die UFC regverdig nie met hul eie ewekansige dwelmtoetsing in plek soos ander professionele sport? Hoe is onwettige dwelms OK vir 'n vegter te doen uit mededinging in die eerste plek? Wie het die reëls met daardie gapende leemte in hulle?
Georges St. Pierre is een van die UFC se mees uitgesproke kritici van die PED-toets voor. Die voormalige kampioen voort te sit op die kantlyn nadat een van die mees straf gevegte van sy loopbaan het hom na sy aftrede aan te kondig met die deur oopgelaat net 'n kraak. Slegs 'n breë, omvattende dwelm toets program kan hom nou terug te bring, St. Pierre handhaaf.
Selfs vegters soos Ronda Rousey kry 'n bietjie ontsteld met die loopbaan beheermaatreëls oor hulle uitgeoefen word deur hulle hoë ome base. Die UFC sal nie eens laat Ronda verskyn in 'n paar geskryf WWE gebeure. Net omdat hierdie skits langer as 'n paar van haar werklike gevegte duur beteken nie hulle is baie anders as wat sy doen in haar film loopbaan. Haar UFC base is fyn met haar agtervolg action movie rolle, so hoekom nie 'n bietjie vals stoei? Miskien is dit die feit dat WWE gesteel die merk Tapout en het dit reg uit die hok en in die stoei ring. Miskien is dit jaloesie wat WWE het die aard van die fan base wat hulle 'n wettige bedreiging maak, en dit is die aard van die ondersteuners van die UFC dringend. Miskien is dit die feit dat die UFC verloor hul kans op dienste Brock Lesnar se weer behoud en hulle is nog steeds daaroor.
Wat ook al die rede, die UFC is meer en meer oor wat vegters kan en nie kan doen nie binne en buite die hok vasklem neer, en dit gaan ver buite vals stoei. Kontrakte is steeds meer en meer beperkende in elke opsig.
Die UFC ook gebruik om 'n klimaat waar geen vegter sou waag praat 'n vieslike woord oor die bestuur of enige besigheid deal bestuur in plek gestel te bevorder. Die straf sou erger as 'n boete as Dana besluit om jou die Brendan Schaub behandeling in die pers te gee.
Kla, en jy wil 'n lafaard of 'n bum genoem. Jy is nie 'n span speler, sommige onkundig aanhangers sal nog sê wanneer jy jou nek uitsteek terwyl onder UFC kontrak. Tog, hierdie klimaat is nie genoeg om hierdie nuwe klein golf van protes wat dalk groei tot 'n skrikwekkende crescendo net voor of na hierdie Reebok deal word amptelik werklikheid te stop.
Die sinnelose volgelinge wat vegters kritiseer vir die uitspreek vir hul eie beste belang net reg eet uit Dana White se hand, selfs wanneer hy verby rottegif. Dit is 'n gruwel om te hoor en te sien so baie mense te stem met 'n man wat nog nooit 'n amptelike geveg amateur bout van enige aard in plaas van luister na iemand wat eintlik in die poging om mee te ding in een professionele hok stryd sit.
Wanneer dit kom by sake van wat dit regtig beteken “om 'n F # $% ing vegter,” Dana kan al die vuil bekken toesprake wat hy wil gee, maar dit is die werklike vegters wat gebloei vir die jaar onder die vaandel UFC wat daardie toespraak ware betekenis en resonansie aan die ondersteuners wat nou aanbid die grond het Dana loop op. Vir die grootste deel, Hierdie aanhangers net soos wit soseer omdat hy praat en cusses net soos hulle. Steeds, een UFC vegter ek onderhoude gevoer jaar gelede het my vertel daar is iets verkeerd met die sport as die mees herkenbare figuur in MMA is Dana White. Ek kon nie eens meer.
Vryheid is nie 'n woord te ligtelik geneem word, en vryheid van spraak is nie so vry soos dit gebruik te word. Jy teken op die stippellyn te stap in die UFC hok, en jy het om te speel deur hulle reëls, selfs die mense wat jy nie wil of nie saamstem met. Dit was erg genoeg wanneer dit was die enigste probleem vegters gekonfronteer. Nou, dit is veel erger as gevolg van die transaksie en die Reebok gevolge en rimpeleffek dit sal veroorsaak.
Sommige mense vergeet deal vervreem ook ander lang tyd borge van die UFC en sy vegters. Dink aan al die klere maatskappye wat nie in staat sal wees om hul produkte verkoop nou in samewerking met enige amptelike UFC gebeurtenis. Die komende UFC Fan Expo situasie is 'n goeie voorbeeld van hoe die UFC net lyk nie te bekommer oor die besighede en ondersteuners wat gehelp het hulle op die kaart in die eerste plek.
Die mense agter die reus MMA liga sal enigiemand of enige groep mense vervreem aan 'n bok te maak uit die rug van 'n beter mens as hulself. Dit Reebok transaksie lewende bewys van daardie. Selfs as al die geld uit die Reebok vennootskap nie gaan na die vegters, al die besighede wat eindig toegesluit uit vegter borgskappe sal line-up eksklusiewe kontrakte met die organisasie self teken. Óf dat, of hulle sal skakel na Bellator ondersteuners en volg verbrand UFC vegters daardie organisasie.
Skielik tweede viool is klink soos dit die show kon steel, en my voorspelling dat Bellator kan misluk lyk voortydige en aanmatigend nou.
“So jy wil 'n f $% ^ ing vegter?”
Kom ek gee jou Scott Coker se nommer.
