LAS VEGAS (Kesäkuu 7, 2021) – Pure and simple, Amanda ”The Real Deal” Serrano is a true fighter, whether it’s in a cage, ring or on a mat. Someday, she could very well be legitimately known as the “Queen of Combat Sports.”

The 10-time, 7 division world boxing champion headlines this Friday night’s -kuvaketta 7, presented by iKON Fighting Federation, the mixed-martial-arts division of Roy Jones Jr. Nyrkkeily, at Benito Juarez Auditorium in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Meksiko.

She will face pro-debuting Valentia Garcia, Meksikon, vuonna -kuvaketta 7 Päätapahtuma.

“It’s an honor to headline iKON 7,” Serrano said. “It is a fast-rising MMA organization that I plan to plant my flag on. My co-manager, Pearl Gonzalez, turned me on to it and so far, I’m loving my dealings with them.

“My first two opponents in MMA were also Mexicans and they were tough. I don’t want it any other way if I’m going to have people take me seriously in this sport. From what I understand, my opponent has striking experience but in MMA, you should never expect a particular style. Most are well rounded and regardless of their primary style, I’m ready for it.”

A year before I debuted in MMA, I shot a movie, ‘Fight Valley’, in which both my sister, Cindy(Serrano), and I co-starred alongside Miesha Tate, Chris Cyborg ja Holly Holm. During the filming we talked about helping each other train in our respective disciplines and yeah, it materialized but in way I became an MMA practitioner.

“Training is totally different. I took a year off from boxing just to learn the basics. Tänään, I train everyday regardless of upcoming fights or not. There are a ton of things I still need to learn. I’m pretty much a workaholic and a sore loser, joten, if I’m messing with it, I want it all! I’d love to one day fight for World title (MMA) and become a champion in both sports at the same time. I have what it takes to do it if anyone does. I do want to switch the narrative as a striker and be known in MMA for my ground game.”

NEF TO DEBUT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE; WELTERWEIGHT TITLE FIGHT ANNOUNCED

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Milford, New Hampshire (Kesäkuu 7, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) announced today that the fight promotion will return with its next event, "NEF 44: Back in Black,” on August 21, 2021.  The show will originate from the Hampshire Dome in Milford, New Hampshire and will feature a mix of both mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and kickboxing fights. It will be NEF’s long-awaited debut in the Granite State, and it will also be the promotion’s first event since the COVID-19 pandemic hit in the spring of 2020.

NEF’s previously-scheduled event, “NEF 43: Riehua,” which was postponed indefinitely due to the pandemic, is still awaiting a rescheduled date at the Collins Center for the Arts at UMaine Orono. NEF executives hope that date will be sometime later in the fall, but at press time they were still waiting on a decision from the Combat Sports Authority of Maine on re-opening the regulation of MMA and boxing events in the state without restrictions.

“Fighters and fans have waited long enough,” declared NEF promoter and co-owner Nick DiSalvo. “With Maine not fully open for combat sports events yet, the Hampshire Dome and the New Hampshire Boxing Commission presented the perfect opportunity to get fighters back in the cage and active again before summer was over.”

NEF further announced today the first fight confirmed for the “NEF 44” card in Milford would be an amateur welterweight title contest. Duncan “The Highlander” Smith (5-3), who has held the promotion’s 170-pound championship since June 2018, is scheduled to defend against number-one-contender Mike “All Class” Bezanson (5-0).

“Coming out of COVID we’re going to find out who really wants it and is serious about accelerating in the sport,"Sanoi NEF osaomistaja ja matchmaker Matt Peterson. “Who was working during quarantine, grinding away in their basements and garages and backyards and getting better while the world was shut down? Duncan and Bezanson both believe they are those guys and we’re going to find out on August 21st. These are two of the best in the Northeast welterweight division and I can’t wait to see which one proves that they are ready to punch through into the professional division before the end of 2021.”

Reigning champion Duncan Smith is a perfect 3-0 in the NEF cage. His last defense of the title was at “NEF 38” in April 2019 when he defeated John Tefft (2-1) via unanimous decision. Smith represents Evolution Athletix based in Saco, Maine.

“I’ve never felt more complete and confident in all aspects of living,"Sanoi Smith. “I am extremely excited to showcase my skills against a game opponent before I enter the pro ranks. A lot can change in two years.”

Undefeated Mike Bezanson is regarded by many as one of the most exciting competitors on the entire New England scene. He is known for his flashy striking style and explosive finishes. Bezanson represents Team Kaze of Lancaster, New Hampshire.

I’ve been sitting like a caged lion this last year because of COVID,” stated Bezanson when reached for comment. “Waiting eagerly for everything to open up just like everyone else. I’m very excited to be able to get back in there to perform for everyone!  I can assure you this will be the same game plan as all my previous fights. I’m going in there for two reasons, to knock out whoever is in front of me and walk out with a belt over my shoulder.

“With everything opening up and restrictions being lifted, there is a lot to get excited about,” said Bezanson’s coach and Kaze Dojo owner Greg Williams. “That being said, nothing excites me more than seeing Mike Bezanson bringing his unique brand of violence back to the NEF cage! He is a rare talent and I believe he will eventually realize himself on the highest level. Another amateur belt is just icing on the cake. We all look forward to seeing New England’s best amateur 170 prospect and how he has evolved in the past year!"

Lippuja tapahtumaan “NEF 44: Back in Black” are on sale now atwww.NewEnglandFights.com/Tickets/The hybrid MMA and kickboxing event will take place at the Hampshire Dome in Milford, New Hampshire on Saturday, Elokuu 21, 2021, kellonajan kanssa 7 pm.

JAKE PAUL VS. TYRON WOODLEY FACEOFF QUOTES AND PHOTOS

KlikkaaTÄSTÄ for Kuvia Amanda Westcott / Showtime

MIAMI(Kesäkuu 4, 2021) – Social media superstar and undefeated pro boxerJake “The Problem Child” Paul faced off with his next opponent, five-time UFC championTyron Woodley, at the historic 5th Street Gym in Miami on Thursday ahead of their highly anticipated summer showdown on SHOWTIME PPV.

Here is what Paul and Woodley had to say following their heated stare down in Miami:

JAKE PAUL

“I told him I’ll pay you double your purse if you beat me. But if you lose, you have to pay your purse to my charity. He lacks confidence. Why wouldn’t you take that bet as a fighter if you knew you were going to win? To make double the money? This is the biggest pay day of your life and you can make double? Put your money where your mouth is.

“He’s a good striker. He’s known for knocking people out. But I think when I beat Tyron, people have to put respect on my name. But that’s not what I’m here for to be honest. I already know how good I am. I know that this is going to be another easy fight. That’s why SHOWTIME is in business with me. Olet tuoteryhmässä tulevaisuudessa nyrkkeily.

“He’s not as good as me and he’s playing catch-up. We see holes in his whole entire game and he has try to learn how to box. He’s stiff. Muscles don’t fight and he’s going to be out of his element. This is boxing. This isn’t MMA. You can’t learn how to box in this amount of time. Now we’re going to show him the reins. The Disney kid is going to beat up the five-time UFC champion of the world. It’s going to be hilarious.

“I haven’t even shown my fighting abilities at all. I haven’t even made it past two rounds in my professional career. I haven’t been hit in the face. Nobody can even see if I have a chin or my inside fighting game. I haven’t even warmed up yet. And by the way, I’m the type of fighter that gets better the longer the fight goes on. I get better in sparring so I haven’t even been able to warm up and I’m excited to show my ability if he can make it out of the first round.

“I’ve predicted every single one of my fights. I said Ben Askren, ensimmäinen kierros. I said Nate Robinson, ensimmäinen kierros. He got to the second. I said in my first pro fight, ensimmäinen kierros. I don’t think Tyron will make it out of two rounds. You might not even get to see my boxing abilities in this fight to be honest.”

TYRON WOODLEY

“I’ve always wanted to box my whole life but never did it. This is my opportunity. This is a kid that’s a power-puncher. He’s got a lot of strength behind him. This is going to be a big platform to showcase what I can do in a boxing ring. And he’s a fighter. Hän voi taistella. Lopussa päivän, you can watch him and the timing, the rhythm and the footwork is there.

“He hasn’t fought very long. But the little action that I have seen was clean. Good defense. Nate was rushing him, he protected himself and he came out of his shell and cracked him.

“He’s trying to downplay his ability. He’s a fighter. Don’t let him play you by saying, ‘I’m just a YouTuber.’ Last week, he was a fighter. When he was saying nobody wanted to fight him, he was a fighter. You’re not a YouTuber anymore. You’re not on Disney. It’s been a long time since he was on Disney. That’s like me saying I’m just a collegiate wrestler and I don’t punch people.

“I just want to have fun. I want to train hard. I want to get better. I want to go out there and do things on my terms and be the one to call the shots. I want to go out there and make history. I always make history. I may not always get the credit for it but I’m always the first. Fighters always hit me up asking what they should do, what they’re doing wrong. Now it’s time for me to go do it myself.”

SFT hallitseva Brasilian kansallinen MMA rankings

SAO PAULO, Brasilia (Toukokuu 25, 2021) – Hävittäjät SFT:n tallissa, MMA Premiumin mukaan, hallitsi toukokuun Brasilian kansallista MMA-listaa.

Miesten punta puntaa -luokituksessa, SFT-vakaahävittäjät valloittivat kolme neljästä parhaasta paikasta: 2, Marcos "Babuino" de Santos (33-13-1, SFT: 3-0-), 3. Wellingtonin "Predator" Prado (11-2-0, SFT: 5-1-0), 4. Thiago "Manchinha" Silva (19-9-0, (SFT: 0-1-0).

"Baboo" ja "Predator", vastaavasti, ovat myös huippuja 2 rankattuja höyhenpainoja, kun taas Junior jaAcacio "Pieni" dos Santos (13-3-0, SFT: 2-0-0) sijoittui yksi-kaksi kevyen raskaansarjan sarjassa.

SFT-naiset sijoittuivat myös toiseksi ja kolmanneksi naisten punta puntaa -luokituksessa, vastaavasti, olkipainoillaJulia Polastri (8-2-0, SFT: 1-0-0) jaKarine "Killer" Silva (13-4-0, SFT: 2-0-0). 

SFT pyyhkäisi naisten kärkisarjan kolmen parhaan sijan, järjestyksessä, kanssa Karine "Killer,"joka oli SFT 2020 Vuoden vastaanottaja, Gisele "Gi" Moreira (9-4-0, SFT: 1-0-0) jaSidy Rocha (12-8-2, SFT: 0-1-0).

"SFT perustettiin vuonna 2018 elokuva- ja tuotantoyhtiömme toimesta,”SFT:n presidenttiDavid Hudson sanoi. ”Kaksi tapahtumaa tuotettiin, mutta sitten olimme odotustilassa viisi vuotta, ja tuolloin, Minulla ei ollut mitään tekemistä SFT:n kanssa. Kun tapahtumat jatkuivat 2018, Ihmettelin, miksi maalla, jolla oli tärkeä rooli MMA:n ja UFC:n luomisessa, ei ollut maailmanluokan promootiota. Analysoituaan mitä tehtiin ja osallistuttuaanSFT 4 Brasiliassa, Olin varma, että ongelma oli siinä, miten asiat hoidettiin. Päätin kävellä pois elokuvateollisuudesta ja omistin elämäni MMA:lle.

"Omalla johdollani, SFT:llä on ollut aivan uusi tapa mainostaa MMA:ta. Jokainen tekemäni päätös, Monet sanoivat minulle, että olin väärässä, ja se johtaisi SFT:n päättymiseen. Numerot eivät valehtele ja kiitos Jumalalle, Minulla on numerot, jotka osoittavat, että olin oikeassa., Kuitenkin, niin innovatiivisia ja jopa hulluja ideani ovat olleet, Tiesin, että päivän päätteeksi taistelujemme piti olla huippuluokkaa. Minulla oli 3 vuoden suunnitelma ja tavoitteeni oli huippu 10 Brasilialaiset hävittäjät SFT:n jokaisessa painoluokassa, lukuun ottamatta niitä, joilla oli sopimukset Brasilian ulkopuolella."

SFT on alustavasti valmis palaamaan heinäkuun 10. päivänäSFT 27 Brasiliassa.

”Olimme matkalla tavoitteemme saavuttamiseen, mutta pandemia sai meidät pysähtymään myös vuoden puolelle,Hudson selitti. "Epäaktiivisuuden vuoksi, monet taistelijamme putosivat huipulta 5 ja 10 kansallisissa rankingissa. Meillä on edelleen paljon Brasilian parhaista tallissamme ja heinäkuussa palaamme kuukausittaisilla tapahtumillamme. Olen varma, että vuoden päästä, asiat palaavat raiteilleen, ja olemme lähempänä tavoitettamme.

”Osa strategiaamme oli järjestää tapahtumia Yhdysvalloissa, mutta Yhdysvaltoihin matkustaville brasiliaisille on edelleen matkustusrajoituksia. Heti kun pystymme tuomaan taistelijamme Yhdysvaltoihin taistelemaan, me teemme, ja sitten olemme askeleen lähempänä tavoitteeni saavuttamista."

“I knew she was tough and I’ve fought her before. I know her and respect her and she’s a real fighter. I knew with her it would be a great match, because she’s capable and she’s tough."

“I was really working in sparring to keep going and going because I knew it was going to be this way. I noticed I enjoyed it a little more. It’s going to be 16 years as a professional fighter this month so I started to enjoy it in there."



“I’ve been working on grappling my whole life but I just feel like I’m getting better and better every day. I got a black belt, but it’s like a white belt because I’m always learning."

“I’ve been doing this 16 vuotta, I’ve got four titles. But before you can be a G.O.A.T. you have to fight the ‘Cat.’ So, I’d like to fight with Cat Zingano and I will ask Scott Coker. Because before you can be a G.O.A.T. you have to fight the ‘Cat.’”

#6-Leandro Higo (20-5) voitti Darrion Caldwell (15-5) jaetulla päätös (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)

“I’ve been waiting for this fight for three years now. It’s exactly how I wanted it to go. I used my wrestling and I used my jiu-jitsu. I’m a complete fighter and I’m ready for any fighter on the planet because I believe I’m the best. I knew I had lost the first round, but in the second when he was throwing all those elbows and cut me open, I’m from a poor family in Brazil and that was nothing I hadn’t seen before. I felt happy being in that cage with blood all over me.

“He ended up taking me down in the second and I went for a kimura, which is something I’m very accustomed to doing, but he reversed it but then he didn’t do anything and I hit him with a lot of strikes on bottom. A lot of elbows and strikes and I stayed very on bottom and he wasn’t doing anything. That’s why I won the second and third round.”

“I think that I deserve a title shot. I just beat three of the biggest names in the game and I just beat a former world champion. And nobody has beaten the top three guys of this world-class caliber like I have done in three consecutive wins. I’m going for that world title and that’s what’s next for me. So let’s make it fast.”

#3-Austin Vanderford (11-0) voitti #4-Fabian Edwards (9-2) kautta yksimielinen päätös (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

Austin Vanderford following his unanimous decision win:

“I like my fights bloody, whether it’s me or my opponent. I’ll get a scab. But hats off to Fabian who cut me up a little bit. But happy to get the win.”

“He was a big, strong guy. I started feeling him give me that head and arm choke. Valitettavasti, I didn’t capitalize on it. But I knew what I was going to do. I was going to just grind it out. He’s a good striker so I had to be careful but I felt good. Wrestling … it’s my heart. I’m ready for the next step.”

Jaleel Willis (15-2) voitti Maycon Mendonca (11-5) kautta yksimielinen päätös (29-28, 30-27, 30-27)

Hannah Guy (3-1) voitti #8-Valerie Loureda (3-1) kautta yksimielinen päätös (30-27, 29-28, 29-28)

Hannah Guy following her first win inside the BELLATOR cage…

“I felt like I had really good cardio, so that was awesome because I was really worried about that a little bit. I’m so thankful she took the fight and I’m so thankful BELLATOR gave me this opportunity.

“I thought I was going to finish with the triangle (tukehtua), rehellisesti. She just slipped right out of there, so that was awesome of her. Her defense was really good. I was really impressed with that. I didn’t know what her ground game was but it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be.

“Grappling is just where I want to be if you’ve seen any of my other fights. My striking has really improved a lot though so I’m hoping to change that. But grappling has always been my strong suit. I didn’t want to just depend on my grappling, but I thought I landed some shots pretty well a few times. In this fight I thought I could see when the punches were coming. And I was able to defend a little bit better and how I’ve grown. So I’m just really proud of myself right now.”

UNDEFEATED WORLD CHAMP VELASQUEZ DEFENDS HER TITLE AGAINST KICKBOXING WORLD CHAMP KIELHOLTZ FRIDAY, Heinäkuu 16 AT BELLATOR 262

A person and person

Description automatically generated with low confidence
ENKELIT - Päätapahtuma Bellator 262 perjantaina, Heinäkuu 16 will feature undefeated 125-pound world champion Juliana Velasquez (11-0) making the first defense of her title against BELLATOR Kickboxing’s Flyweight World Champion and No. 4 sijoittui Denise Kielholtz (6-2). The card emanates from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. and airs live on SHOWTIME at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

A limited number of tickets starting at $60 go on sale beginning Friday, Kesäkuu 4, with a special presale starting on Thursday, Kesäkuu 3 alkaen 10 a.m. kohteeseen 10 p.m. JA, and can be purchased at Ticketmaster and Bellator.com.

Hailing from Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia, the 34-year-old Velasquez makes the first defense of her flyweight title since dethroning inaugural champion Ilima-Lei Macfarlane at Bellator 254 in December of last year. Sitting in the No. 2 slot on the BELLATOR women’s pound-for-pound rankings, Velasquez is a former Brazilian national champion in judo, a martial arts discipline she began training at age four. The Team Nogueira product has been a dominant force throughout her unblemished 11-fight professional career, including six wins under the BELLATOR banner.

“I’m extremely excited and happy to get back in the BELLATOR cage and defend my title for the first time,” said Velasquez. “I’ve been training really hard, and I’m fully prepared to put on an incredible performance for my fans. Denise has been a great champion in the BELLATOR kickboxing ring, but this MMA belt is mine and it will be going back to Brazil with me after the fight.”

Already the reigning BELLATOR Kickboxing Flyweight World Champion, Kielholtz is looking to capture the promotion’s MMA gold as well when she straps on the BELLATOR MMA gloves for the seventh time. The Dutch striking sensation, known to fans as “Miss Dynamite,” is riding a four-fight MMA winning streak, including a first round knockout over former title challenger Kate Jackson at Bellator 247 viime lokakuussa. Much like her opponent, the 32-year-old Kielholtz holds a black belt in judo with multiple titles as a member of the Dutch National Judo Team.

“This is the moment I’ve been waiting for since I was a child,” said Kielholtz. “My journey in martial arts started when I was nine years old. I have earned multiple championships from kickboxing and judo and I feel like the universe has put everything together. All the hard work, all the sacrifices I have made in my life have all led me to this opportunity. This will be the crowning achievement of my career. This is mine.”
