LOS ANGELES - Bellator is pleased to announce that the organization’s current bantamweight titleholder Darrion Caldwell (13-1) will represent the promotion in an exciting matchup against 2017 Rizin Bantamweight Grand Prix winner Kyoji Horiguchi (25-2). The two will compete for the inaugural Rizin bantamweight championship at Rizin 14 ponedeljek, December. 31 from Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japonska.

 

 

 

In the three-round (15-minute) Rizin FF world championship bout – which will be held in a ring under Rizin’s unique rule set – the victor of Caldwell vs. Horiguchi will leave Japan’s historic combat sports venue a Rizin FF champion. Caldwell’s Bellator bantamweight title will not be on the line in the contest.

 

 

 

The latest agreement between Bellator and Rizin FF furthers a collaboration between the two companies which has seen multiple athletes, Vključno Fedor Emelianenko, »King Mo» Lawal in Hisaki Kato med drugim, compete interpromotionally, but never before has a title from either promotion been on the line.

 

 

 

“Working for the Japanese fight company K-1 was a magical time during my promotional career and I have always felt strongly that MMA in the ‘Land of the Rising Sun’ would rise again. It truly is amazing to see what Nobuyuki Sakakibara has been able to do thus far with Rizin FF, so when he reached out to me about putting Darrion Caldwell against Kyoji Horiguchi for Rizin’s belt, we spoke to Darrion and he jumped at the opportunity,” Bellator President Scott Coker said. “Bellator wants to support Rizin, and by sending our bantamweight champion to compete during their New Year’s Eve event, we look forward to this leading towards more collaboration between the two promotions in 2019. I want to wish Darrion luck in his quest to prove he is the best 135-pound fighter on the planet.”

 

 

 

“I am very grateful and honored that Bellator and Scott Coker would send us their unarguable bantamweight champion to fight for Rizin’s first-ever world title fight. This title fight will be a true champion vs. champion to determine the world’s best bantamweight fighter,” Rizin FF President Nobuyuki Sakakibara said. “We hope this kind gesture will kick off of a series of exciting matchups between both promotions in 2019. My dream would be that eventually we can co-promote a mega event in both countries with a ‘Champion Carnival’ taking place where stories and rivalries can be built and told.”

 

 

 

Caldwell, a 30-year-old Rahway, NJ. native and the current Bellator bantamweight champion, most recently moved up a weight class to challenge himself, successfully finishing veteran Noad Lahat. Boj iz San Diega, Kaliforniji., “The Wolf” has emerged as one of the most well-rounded fighters in the world, collecting 10 victories since signing with Bellator in 2013. The 2009 NCAA D-1 National Champion wrestler from NC State boasts a resume that includes five first-round finishes, a 25-minute war against Eduardo Dantas to claim the world title and a textbook guillotine choke submission victory over Leandro Higo in his first career title defense earlier this year. Caldwell will look for fifth consecutive win and a second world title belt when he enters the ring against Kyoji Horiguchi on New Year’s Eve in Japan.

Andrey Lezhnev has earned his title shot against Lanwehr
Landwehr is a typical brawler with nice cardio,” Lezhnev commented. “Everybody who plays by his rules loses. He is also very provocative, he loves creating the hype around him. For a long time, he tried to avoid this fight, challenging guys who passed their prime, because he understood he had no chances against me. But now the time has come to beat that hype out of him.

Aleksander Doskalchuk (L) outworked challenger Mikael Silander to earn a unanimous decision win
Silander (18-7-0), who had his second title shot last night versus Doskalchuk, lost in an Interim title fight against Ashimov last February at M-1 Challenge 87, in which the Finnish fighter was stopped on punches in the second round.
Doskalchuk improved to 4-0-0 in M-1 Global competition with his five-round unanimous decision victory over Silander

Abreau usually fights in the light heavyweight division, but he took on heavyweight Vyazigin, who was coming off a no-contest fight against living legend Sergey Kharitonov.
Russian featherweight prospect Abubkar Mestoev ostal neporažen rekord nedotaknjen, improving to 7-0-0 with his unanimous decision triumph against Elias AlvesJunior MaranhaoDa Silva (21-8-0).

Georgian welterweight Amiran Gogoladze (7-1-0) only needed 10-seconds to knock out Juho Valamaa (15-6-0) with a powerful punch.

Kot je oglaševano, ta dva bojevnika (Gazani in Petje) šel od peta do pete na zelo zabavnem glavnem dogodku, ki ni manjkal v množici prijetnih vrhuncev in razburljivih trenutkov. Gazani je stopil naprej in pritiskal na akcijo večino noči, s svojimi trdnimi boksarskimi sposobnostmi v svoj prid. Petje je lahko kontriral z visokimi koleni in hudimi telesnimi udarci, kar je na koncu pripeljalo do večinske odločitve. Videti je bilo, kot da je Gazani v petem krogu podrl Petjeja, vendar je bilo na koncu odločeno kot zdrs.

 

 

 

Nočni glavni dogodek, je bila še ena vojna, v kateri sta dva MMA Heavyweighta stala in stavkala tri zaporedne kroge. Tony “hulk” Johnson (12-4-1) poraženi D.J. “Da Zaščiteno” Linderman (21-15-0) s soglasno odločitvijo (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) v tistem, kar je bil absolutni polž. Linderman je v bitki že zgodaj utrpel velik rez nad desnim očesom in kljub nenehnemu toku krvi, ki mu je tekel po obrazu, še vedno se je odločil, da bo stal v žepu in zamenjal Johnsona.

 

Kevin “Nevihta” Johnson (6-1-0) šel na razdaljo z Isaac Luna (3-1-0) v dvoboju super lahkega boksa. Ključi so zmagali s soglasno odločitvijo (59-55, 58-56, 59-55) v vznemirljivem boju, kjer je Luna ves čas prihajala naprej in silila Johnsona, da se je vmešal celo noč. Johnson je dobro nasprotoval in je lahko uporabil ostre kombinacije, da je sprejel odločitev.

 

 

 

V dvoboju Kickboxing Catchweight, Meletis “Nightmare” Kakoubavas (33-7-0) ujeti Jermaine “NI BESEDE.” Thicket (24-7-0) z visokim desnim strelom ob bok Sotove glave na dvainpetdeset drugi točki drugega kroga njihovega kroga. Boj je bil ustavljen, potem ko se je Soto dvignil s platna, kar je privedlo do zmage TKO za Kakoubavas.

 

 

 

Noč se je začela s težkim Zac Cavenderjem (1-0-0) zmagal na profesionalnem prvenstvu v MMA z zmago v TKO v prvem krogu nad Mariusom Cantonerujem (0-2-0). Cavenderjeva tla in funt sta delovala do popolnosti, saj je vrsta pesti ob strani Cantonerujeve glave povzročila zaustavitev na 2:30 oznaka prvega kroga.

 

 

 

“FFC 34 obljubil, da bo izvedel borbe z nabito akcijo, in kot je oglaševano, točno to smo dostavili našim oboževalcem,” je dejal izvršni direktor / ustanovitelj FFC, Orsat Zovko. “Vse naše borbe, v vsaki disciplini, bili konkurenčni in prav v tem je izkušnja Fight Dome.”
