REGISTERED NURSES TO THROW DOWN AT NEF 27

Lewiston, Maine (Detsember 13, 2016) Mis koht Inglismaa võitleb (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Veebruar 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE.” Täna, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bout to the card.

Noor, the wife of Young’s MMA founder and head coach Chris Young, made her MMA debut in the fall of 2015. Somehow finding the time to fight while being a fulltime mother and working overnight as a registered nurse, Young would compete three times in just an eight-month period. Võita või kaotada, she has been known to put onfight of the nightperformances, including Young’s last bout with Kylie O’Hearn (1-2) juures “NEF 23” in Hyannis, Massachusetts this past May.

 

I’ve taken some time off from the cage since my last fight, but I’ve never stopped training,” said Young when reached for comment. “Young’s is growing, and team training has been elevated to a higher standard because of the new talent. I’m looking forward to stepping back in the NEF cage in February. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while, and you better believe I’m coming for a win.

 

Like her opponent, Brothwell is a registered nurse. She is based in New Hampshire and is a member of team Bucket Brigade in Nashua. While she will be making her NEF debut on Veebruar 11, Brothwell is no stranger to the MMA cage. She has competed twice previously and she promises a memorable fight for both Young and the fans in Lewiston.

 

I fully respect my opponent, her abilities and training, but I train with the best in New England,” stated Brothwell. “Võita või kaotada, you will always remember the time you fought me. This won’t just be the best female fight on the card, it’s going to be fight of the night.

UFC lagundamine 207 Main Card: Eelvaade ja ennustused

 

Poolt: Rich Bergeron

UFC 207 tähistab kauaoodatud tagasitulekut “Rowdy” Ronda Rousey (12-1) kaheksanurgale, kus ta kunagi domineeris naiste kaalukaalumeistrina. Hollywoodi Rouseylt dramaatiliselt võetud pealkiri on nüüd Amanda Nunese võimeka vöö ümber (13-4). Rouseyl on 30. detsembril võimalus see ära rebida ja oma puusade ümber tagasi panna.

Rousey on puurist väljas olnud üle aasta, ja ta kinnitas juba hiljuti, et tema karjäär segavõitluskunstides on lõppemas. Nunes on noor, näljane ja hirmutav kui alaealine (+150) otsides vööst kinni hoida legendaarse judoka ja MMA juggernauti vastu. Rousey tuleb lemmikuna sisse -185.

Lisateavet koefitsientide ja kihlvedude kohta leiate aadressilt 12BET.

Sellele menukale sündmusele on rohkem küsimusi kui vastuseid. Kas Rousey raputab rõngasrooste maha ja naaseb hiilguse juurde? Kas ta on juba üks samm pensionipõlve suunas? Kas Nunes suudab oma kahtlejad vaigistada ja jätkata kõigi UFC naiste kuldkaalu meistrite pärandit? Mis ka ei juhtuks, esimene voor on ülioluline. Mõlemad naised soovivad sellest teha kiire õhtu.

Ennustus: Rousey tuleb tagasi kättemaksuga ja kuvab palju täiustatud löögi- ja löögikaitset. Nunes võitleb kõvasti ja esindab Brasiilia parimat, aga Rondal on liiga palju kaotada. Tal pole võib-olla enam täiuslikku plaati, mida kaitsta, kuid tal on ideaalne põhjus selle võitluse võitmiseks. Samuti peab ta kehtestama oma alfa-staatuse, et sulgeda omaenda kriitikud ja tõestada, et ta on tagasi oma tiitlit tagasi nõudma. Rousey võidab teise ringi alguses nokaudiga.

Kaasaegsel põhiturniiril on järjekordne UFC bantamkaalu tiitel. Dominic Cruz (22-1) annab Cody Garbrandt (10-0) pragu vööl, mis võiks olla tõeline nälkjas. Kuigi Cody ei kaotanud kunagi võitlust ja lõi professionaalsel tasemel üheksa oma kümnest karjäärivastast, Dominic Cruz (-225) veeretab 13 võitlusega võiduseeriat, mis pärineb aasta märtsist 2008. Garbrandt (+175) esindab küll vanasõna “lööja võimalus” siin, kuigi. Ta on võitnud oma kolm viimast mängu TKO või nokaudiga. Kõik nad lõpetasid tänu Cody kiirele löögijõule.

Ennustus: Arvestades, et Cruz on taktikaline, kaitsev võitleja, ta areneb, kui võitlus satub sügavamatesse voorudesse. Garbrandt ei saa ilma esimese ringi nokaudita võita, kuna Cruzi puuri toodud kogemus ja toores talent on ainulaadne ja dünaamiline. Ta teeb kohandusi nagu ükski teine ​​võitleja ning kasutab keha ja pea liikumist, mis näib segavat kõik vastased, kellega ta viimastel aastatel silmitsi seisis,. Cody peab kinni püüdma “Dominator” temaga ühenduse loomiseks, ja tal on selleks ainult üks voor. Cruz võidab hilise vooru TKO või ühehäälse otsusega.

Fabricio Werdumi raskekaaluline kokkupõrge (21-6-1) ja Cain Velasquez (14-2) on ka UFC-s 207. Võitlus on UFC korduskohtumine 188 sõda kahe koljatia vahel, mis lõppes sellega, et Werdum võitis meistritiitli kolmanda vooru esitamisega (Giljotiini õhuklapp).

Seekord umbes, Velasquez on soositud võitleja (-210) samas kui Werdum on a +170 allajääja. See on veel üks kakleja vs. taktikute matš, ja see võib minna mõlemale poole. Werdum näitas Stipe Miocicu vastu nõrka lõua, ja Cain otsib kõiki võimalusi selle kontrollimiseks.

Ennustus: Velasquez saadab Werdumi kahe ringi sees. Kaini silmatorkav on Werdumist parem, ja ta ei tee seda viga, et laseb Werdumil seekord võitluse maapinnale viia. Velasquez KO poolt.

Neil Magny (18-5) ja Johny Hendricks (17-5) tule UFC jaoks puuri 207 kahe liiga parema poolkaalu hulka. Mõlemad kogevad viimasel ajal spordis mõningaid tõuse ja mõõnasid, kuigi. Magnyl oli Lorenz Larkini viimases heitluses peatatud kolme võitlusega seeria, samas kui Hendricks kaotas viimasest neljast võitlusest kolm. Hendricks on endisest minast kaugel ja meistriliiga päevadest kaugel. Stephen Thompson pühkis matti Hendricksiga jõhkrasse TKO-sse, enne kui Kelvin Gastelum astus endise meistri vastas olevasse puuri ja viis pärast kolme raskelt võidetud vooru koju ühehäälse otsuse..

Ennustus: Magny on vastupidavam ja dünaamilisem võitleja, ja Hendricks ei saa piisavalt lähedale, et oma parimaid jõulööke teha. Magny peatab Hendricksi’ ettemaksed, eitada tema eemaldamiskatseid ja esitada või peatada endine tšempion enne viimast kella. Magny kolmanda vooru TKO poolt.

Põhikaardilt eemaldamine on järjekordne võitlus, milles osaleb endine meister. T.J.. Dillashaw (13-3) lahingud reisimees John “Kivi käed” Lineker (29-7) bantamkaalus võitluses, mis tuleb kindlasti tuleviku klassika. Lineker toob intensiivsuse, jõud ja täpsus, mille tunnistaja on lihtsalt hämmastav. Dillashaw liigub puuris ringi nagu iiri kasuisa, rünnakute vältimine nagu Mehhiko härjavõitleja. Lineker näitas oma viimases võitluses John Dodsoniga, et ta võib olla kaval, tehniline võitleja samuti.

Ennustus: Mida T.J. puudumine on Linekeri tugevus: VÕIM. Lineker õpib oma raamistiku leidma teises voorus ja hakkab tungima Dillashaw ebatraditsioonilisse kaitsesse. Kolmanda ringi keskel püüab ta T.J kinni. varundades ja lõpetades võitluse jalgadel jõhkra löögiseeriaga, peksab, põlved ja küünarnukid puuri vastu. Lineker kolmanda vooru TKO poolt.

TOP PROSPECT ED RUTH JOINS THIS FRIDAY’S ‘BELLATOR 168’ CARD IN FLORENCE FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT IN AS MANY MONTHS

 

Santa Monica, CALIF (Detsember. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, Ja Ruth (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place sel reedel juures "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran," edasi Detsember. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4pm ET/PT.

 

Praegu ainult 26 aastane, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Tyrelli õnn (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) samuti Aaron Pico ja Romero Cotton – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Californias., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck ja Chris Honeycutti, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on November. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 esimesse vooru.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, koosnedes John Salter (12-3), Yamauchi üles (31-9) ja Philipe Lins(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Denise Kielholtz (45-3) ja Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Joe Schilling (19-9) vastu Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) koos Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), ja Kevin Ross(31-9) kohtub Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) in kerge võitlus.

HEAVYWEIGHTS PREPARE FOR WAR AT NEF 27

 

Lewiston, Maine (Detsember 7, 2016) Mis koht Inglismaa võitleb (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Veebruar 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE.” Täna, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional contest to the card. RasRasquatchHylton (0-0) teeb oma debüüdi vastu Mike “Mustache” Hansen (5-4) raskekaalu divisjoni.

 

Hylton’s now-legendary rise through the ranks of the amateur heavyweight division in NEF is one of the major stories of 2016. At 6’6and towering over the top of the MMA cage, Hylton cuts an imposing figure. The only thing more impressive than Hylton’s size and appearance might be his athletic abilities. A prolific striker, Hylton finished all three of his opponents this year by either knockout or technical knockout.

 

Rasquatch,” or as some fans call himThe Jamaican Shamrock,” really began to raise eyebrows with a highlight-reel head kick knockout of Matt Glover (1-1) last spring. Siis, viimase kuu “NEF 26,Hylton pounded an extremely tough Kevin Smith (3-3) to a bloody pulp. It was immediately after that dominant performance that Hylton’s coaches at First Class MMA and Dragon Fire Martial Arts felt the time was right for him to make the jump to the pro ranks.

 

I am so grateful to be fighting a man of Mike Hansen’s stature in front of my family and friends,” said Hylton. “As the first professional fighter to come out of both Dragon Fire Martial Arts and First Class MMA, and with the instruction of Shihan Andy Campbell, John “Esimene klass” Raio and my team, we are preparing for me to go to war because that is what Mike always brings to the cage.

 

A former Maine state heavyweight wrestling champion out of Mountain Valley High School, Mike Hansen has never shied away from taking a fight with someone bigger than him. Tegelikult, Hansen, who also competes in the light-heavyweight and middleweight divisions, has gained a reputation as somewhat of agiant killer.

 

Varem sel aastal, Hansen submitted a substantially bigger Jesse Baughman (0-2) in the first round atNEF 22.He followed up that impressive performance by nearly knocking out a much larger Brendan Battles (1-1) with a right hand atNEF 23.This fall Hansen gave up nearly half a foot to Matt Andrikut (2-1) and submitted his bigger opponent in the first round. Tõepoolest, Hylton’s size advantage will play little role in the outcome of this fight should Hansen have anything to say about it.

 

“Ma olen super põnevil selles võitluses,” exclaimed Hansen. “I like being part of these ‘super fights.I know Ras has a great camp behind him and he will come 100% prepared. I’ll expect nothing less from Raio, but I feel my experience and composure in the cage will be my best asset and that’s not something that he can train up on sisse 10 weeks. February 11th we will go to war, so expect just that.

 

NEF’s next event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE” toimub Laupäev, Veebruar 11, 2017 juures 7 Pärastlõunal. Piletid alustada $25 ja on müügil nüüd www.TheColisee.com või helistades Colisee kassas 207.783.2009, extension 525.
