LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Rezirèksyon Goumen Alliance (RFA) president Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will be bringing the first nationally televised MMA event to the state of Idaho. RFA 27 – Murphy vs. Brock will feature a main event pitting a rising prospect against asurging vet.

“I’m excited to bring the first nationally televised MMA event to Idaho,” Deklare Soares. “Joe Murphy vs. Jesse Brock is a classic match-up of jiu-jitsu vs. lit, but more importantly it’s a clash between a promising prospect and a surging vet. That really makes you appreciate the gravity of this main event in what will be the crown jewel MMA event to take place in the Gem State.”
Eric Trapp, the president of CenturyLink Arena, also expressed his excitement about hosting Idaho’s first nationally televised MMA event.
“We’re excited to help bring such a great event to the state of Idaho and showcase not only our arena, but also our fighters to a nationwide audience on July 3rd,” stated Trapp. “The RFA brand is one of the best out there and CenturyLink Arena is proud to host this event.”
Tikè pou RFA 27 – Murphy vs. Brock are available for purchase NOW through CenturyLinkArenaBoise.ak.
Murphy (8-2) returns to the RFA octagon after two memorable performances in the RFA octagon within a 9 week span. Murphy made his long-awaited RFA debut this past December in the co-main event of RFA 21 to much fanfare. He more than lived up to expectations with a scintillating first round TKO victory over the highly-touted Bruno Frazatto. 9 weeks later, Murphy headlined RFA 23 against Terrion Ware in what many have pegged as a “Goumen pou Ane a” contender. Murphy is now looking forward to a new challenge as he travels to his next opponent’s hometown.
“Jiu-Jitsu vs. Wrestling is an endless debate. I’m excited to see how I match up against someone with Jesse Brock’s credentials,” said Murphy. “Èspere ke, he sells out the arena on July 3rd, so I get boo’d on my way to the cage. I’m pretty damn good at turning those boos into cheers by the time it’s over.”
Brock (20-8) enters this fight as one of the most experienced bantamweight fighters in RFA history. Brock will be making his RFA debut 9 years after he made his professional MMA debut. The former Boise State wrestling standout has since competed on three continents against some of the biggest names in the sport, which includes bouts against current UFC flyweight champion Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson, #3 ranked UFC lightweight Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone, and former UFC lightweight title challenger Caol Uno. Brock is currently riding the momentum of a four-fight win streak and is looking forward to parlaying that momentum into the main event of RFA 27.
“This fight is definitely a big deal for me and the entire MMA community in Idaho,” stated Brock. “I feel honored that the RFA picked me to spearhead Idaho’s first nationally televised MMA event. I can’t wait to perform in front of my friends and family at RFA 27.”
Evènman an ko-prensipal la RFA 27 will feature two of the sport’s most promising flyweight prospects, when Idaho’s own Czar Sklavos (11-4) battles Jeremy Horn protégé Nick Burgos (9-3). Sklavos, who hails from Twin Falls, Idaho, has secured 9 nan l ' 11 wins via submission and has never been finished in a career dating back to March 2010. In his pro debut, he happened to go the distance with current UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw. Plis dènyèman, Sklavos advanced to the finals of the Vale Tudo Japan flyweight tournament last fall and is eager to test his experience against the talented and red-hot Burgos. Six consecutive opponents over the past two and a half years have been defeated by the Utah based flyweight, but Burgos’ marquee victory came in his most recent bout. That win came over former RFA flyweight champion Matt Manzanares via Unanimous Decision in March.
The feature fight of RFA 27 will be a battle of two explosive heavyweights, who are hungry to make a statement. Janvye Jorgensen (7-1) and Dale Sopi (6-1) are a combined 13-0 outside the RFA and are eager to make some noise in the talented RFA heavyweight division. Jorgensen, who was a football star at BYU before transitioning to MMA, trains at The Pit Elevated in Orem, Utah alongside UFC star and TUF 11 champion Court McGee. His opponent Sopi is a native of Nanakuli, Hawaii and trains at Power MMA in Gilbert, Arizona alongside UFC star and TUF 8 champion Ryan Bader. Epizod adisyonèl nan RFA 27 pral anonse byento. RFA 27 will be the promotion’s first event to take place in the “Gem State” of Idaho, which will be the 13th state the RFA has held an event.

PLIS:
THE RETURN OF BOSTON SALMON, DANNY MAINUS, JARRED MERCADO, AND BRUNO FRAZATTO



LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Rezirèksyon Goumen Alliance (RFA) president Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will be returning to the state of Colorado next month. RFA 26 – Smith vs. Smith will feature a main event between two RFA fan favorites. RFA welterweight champion Benjamin Smith returns to face man similar in name and talent. Premye defans tit l 'la ap kont #1 contender Gilbert Smith, who will be looking to keep the title from leaving his home state.

Pral tout kat nan prensipal pral televize ap viv ak tout peyi sou BEARINGS AXS televizyon an 10 p.m. AK / 7 p.m. PT.

“Smith vs. Smith will be a fantastic welterweight title fight at RFA 26,” Deklare Soares. “Benjamin Smith was completely dominant in winning the title, while Gilbert Smith was valiant in his last title fight by going 5 rounds with a guy who missed weight by 5 liv. Smith and Smith will give Colorado a title fight they deserve.”
Tikè pou RFA 26 – Smith vs. Smith are available for purchase NOW through AltitudeTickets.com. Biyè kòmanse nan $25.00. A limited number of catered 8-seat cageside VIP tables are available by calling 303-521-0966.
Benjamin Smith (14-2) returns to the RFA octagon after winning the vacant RFA welterweight strap with a dominant TKO victory over Tat Romero in March. That win came after he bested Josh Cavan in the co-main event of RFA 20 to close out last year. Smith has been perfect in MMA for the past two years and is currently riding a 6-fight winning streak. The surging Minnesota based fighter now looks to solidify his control of the RFA welterweight division with his first title defense.
“It feels great to be defending my title in Coloradnan, depi I had a great experience fighting there in November,” Di Smith. “I won the title back in March and this is a great opportunity. It gives me holding status. Gilbert Smith has a great last name. He’s also a really physically strong competitor. I look forward to finishing him and keeping the belt at RFA 26 on June 5th.”
Gilbert Smith (10-4) enters the title fight looking for redemption and some vindication after his first shot at the title in January was hindered when his opponent egregiously missed weight by 5-pounds. The always-game Smith agreed to take the fight anyway, but the brazen weight advantage that his opponent possessed, played a pivotal and unfair role in the outcome of their 5-round affair. Smith is now eager to get his shot at the title on a level playing field.
“Premye ak premye, I am really excited to be getting this opportunity,” Smith eksplike. “It will be nice to get redemption. I do wish my opponent made weight in the last fight, but I ended up learning a lot from that fight. I was back in the gym on the Wednesday after the fight and I have filled in the holes that I needed to fix. Benjamin Smith is a deserving champion. He’s a good grappler that has been working on his boxing, but he has a similar style to me. That will play to my advantage. I don’t know how, but I will finish him, and get that belt strapped around my waist in front of my friends and family in Colorado.”
RFA 26 will also see the return of former RFA bantamweight title challenger Jarred “Shutout” Mercado (12-2). He faces fellow two-time RFA vet Bruno Frazatto (6-2). Mercado has NCAA Division I wrestling credentials, while Frazatto is a highly-decorated jiu-jitsu black belt. The main card will feature another pair of RFA bantamweights that are both known for their exciting and action-packed fights. Hawaiian striking sensation Boston Salmon (3-0) will look to keep his flawless record intact with a fourth straight TKO win. He will face collegiate wrestler and three-time RFA vet Danny Mainus (3-3) in a bout that has “Goumen nan mitan lannwit lan” ekri tout lòt peyi sou li.
The co-main event, feature fight, and additional bouts nan RFA 26 vlel be announced soon. RFA 26 will be the promotion’s sixth event to take place in the state of Colorado.

Lè Denver, yon vil li te ye pou move tan frèt mòde, kraze yon dosye pou Lanèj ki Tonbe an, petèt li pi byen yo rete andedan kay la – epi l ap monte wèltèr Bojan Velickovic ka ateste, “Jimnastik la (Elevasyon goumen Ekip) te fèmen. Pa te gen okenn fòmasyon ki apremidi. Li nan fou. De pye nan nèj tonbe ak youn nan antrenè yo pa t 'kapab fè li (nan jimnastik la), se konsa mèt kay la deside fèmen. Wout yo yo se terib. Mwen prèske te resevwa nan de aksidan machin sa a maten!”

Se konsa, ke yo te bloke andedan kay la, Bojan “Gadyen” Velickovic (9-3) te fè kèk devwa pou bout wèltèr kap vini li yo ak Chris “Hitman nan” Hugh (16-9). Rankontre nan de nan RFA 24 sou Vandredi, Mas 6th nan Mystic Lake Casino la & Hotel nan Anvan Lake, Minnesota. Pral bout nan pral televize ap viv ak tout peyi sou BEARINGS AXS televizyon. “Mwen kay kounye a ap eseye fè bagay sa yo pou batay la ak yo gade opozan m ', batay pwòp mwen, fè omwen yon bagay depi mwen pa ka antrene,” Velickovic èksplike.

Avèk “Hitman nan” Hugh touting yon 5-batay genyen tras, Velickovic konnen ki jan danjere opozan l 'yo se, “Bagay ki pi enpòtan mwen gen fè se mete pwòp vitès m 'ak wè ki jan li k ap pase yo reyaji nan frape m' ak lit.”

Velickovic reyalize ke genyen yon batay se pa sèlman sou etidye yon advèsè, men sou etidye pwòp tèt ou yon sèl la, “Hugh gen 25 batay, men se sèlman de batay sou YouTube se konsa mwen pa ka etidye l 'ke anpil, men mwen ka wè tou batay anvan m 'ak wè sa ki mwen te fè move – epi nou pa fè sa yo kalite erè ankò.”

Fòmasyon ak estime Elevasyon goumen Ekip la, Velickovic renmen konbatan yo ki Denver ki baze sou ak jimnastik, “Mwen resevwa fòmasyon yon anpil ak ch konbatan Brandon pay ak Neil Magny pou batay ch yo, Se konsa, mwen panse ke jwèt travyè m 'ak lit te vin pi bon ak, kòm toujou, Mwen renmen al goumen ak aspè yo nan mma kòm yon antye ak Mwen panse ke se sa ki mwen pral eseye pou fè pou sa a batay (ak Hugh).”

A laj de 12, Velickovic kòmanse fòmasyon nan judo pou plizyè ane ak favorize tranzisyon nan kikboksin a laj de 18, “Mwen te gen tankou 7 batay amatè ak 7 pwofesyonèl. Mwen panse ke dosye mwen te manm 14-2 oswa 15-2 – ak pou soti nan kikboksin, Mwen chanje mma. Mwen wè tèt mwen kounye a kòm yon atis masyal melanje. Mwen renmen yo dwe bon nan tout aspè. Mwen pa si w rate klas lit pou yo ale nan jyu-jitsu. Mwen jis ap eseye vin pi bon chak jou nan tout aspè nan mma e ke sa a objektif mwen.”

Epi Velickovic pa te gade dèyè depi, “Mwen te rive nan peyi Etazini an nan montre nan reyalite, “Road Ring a nan dife”. Fondamantalman, youn nan antrenè yo (pou montre nan reyalite k ap vini) te yon pro avyon de gè MMA epi li di m 'Genyen yon bon montre reyalite vini. Ou gen bon travyè, yon background judo, petèt li nan yon bon opòtinite pou ou.’ Se konsa, mwen anrejistre pou montre nan reyalite epi yo envite m '. Mwen te genyen 4 batay nan montre nan ak te genyen montre nan – ak mwen te genyen pwochen mwen 3 batay kòm byen.”

W ap fè aplikasyon pou yon viza pwofesyonèl, Velickovic te viv nan eta yo depi 2013, kote l 'te rekrite pa Ekip Top Ameriken (POU) nan Coconut Creek, Florida, “ATT te ede aplike pou viza mwen epi mwen gen yon kontra ak yo pou 5 ane sa yo.”

Lè yo mande si te gen nenpòt tansyon, paske nan divize tan li ant de jimnaz pisan mezon dacha komèsyal kontinuèl (Elevasyon goumen Ekip ak ATT), Velickovic klarifye, “Èske Pa. Mwen se avèk Ekip Top Ameriken – yon anpil nan nèg nan ATT tren nan jimnaz diferan pou yon koup la semèn anvan batay yo Lè sa a, tounen vin jwenn ATT pou yon koup nan semèn nan bòks ak kan fòmasyon adisyonèl, men yo toujou gen 'Ekip Top Ameriken’ sou banyèr yo.”

Li te tou bay limyè sou politik yo ak foul sou avyon de gè ki emigre nan ATT, “Gen yon koup de mesye ki tap ki gen plen tan, men konbatan yo toujou vizite Florid ak ATT. Yon anpil nan yo tounen vin yo epi soti nan (kote tankou) California, Texas epi rete yon koup la semèn, travay sou bòks, ak lè sa a yo tounen lakay yo epi fè konpetisyon pou Ekip Top Ameriken yo ak jimnaz vil yo.”

Quick rasire pa te gen okenn san move oswa Malantandi ak ATT, Velickovic eta, “Mwen te di yo ke mwen te envite nan Elevasyon goumen Ekip ede Brandon pay ak Neil Magny jwenn pare pou batay yo ak Lè sa a, mwen deside rete isit la pou kan antye m 'pou RFA 24. Li se yon altitid trè wo, bon jimnastik, bon anviwònman, ak mesye yo soti nan jimnastik la aksepte m 'reyèlman bon- ak mwen santi mwen mwen se kay ak sa a, se bagay ki pi enpòtan. Men, si mwen deside pou yo avanse pou Colorado, Mwen pral toujou mete 'Ekip Top Ameriken’ sou bout pantalon m 'pou koup la pwochen de zan, depi mwen se toujou anba kontra.”

Pou ou kab vin yon avyon de gè souvan egzije pou yon egzistans nomad, kite dèyè fanmi ak zanmi vin genyen plis konpetans ou. Batay soti nan Novi Sad, Sèbi, Velickovic pale nan pwovens li kote l ak peyi tandrès kèlkeswa pwoksimite a fèmen nan peyi lagè, “Novi Sad se bèl anpil kote ak lè lagè yo yougoslavi te fèt, Novi Sad te lwen soti nan fwontyè a kote lagè a ak dife-batay te ak yon jan kanmenm jere yo rete soti nan konfli a. Koulye a, Sèbi te lapè nan dènye a 15-20 ane sa yo.”

Li te ajoute, “Mwen te kite ak te vin isit la yo vin pi bon nan mma, paske anviwònman an fòmasyon nan U.S lan. ak ladrès yo nan konbatan yo ki yo se pi plis avanse pase lakay tounen. Mwen te panse si mwen te vin isit la nan tren a ak pi bon an, Mwen ka vin ak youn nan pi bon an. Sa a rezon ki fè prensipal poukisa mwen te deplase soti nan US”

Premye defans tit l 'la ap kont #1 contender “Super” Sam Toomer, ki moun ki pral kap kenbe dosye undefeated li entak.

Evènman an pran plas Vandredi, Avril 10yèm nan Pentagòn lan Sanford nan Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Pral tout kat nan prensipal pral televize ap viv ak tout peyi sou BEARINGS AXS televizyon an 10 p.m. AK / 7 p.m. PT.

“I’m excited to announce that the RFA is returning to South Dakota with two title fights at RFA 25,” Deklare Soares. “Justin Lawrence se premye moun nan pou pou genyen yon tit sanksyon mond mma nan eta a nan South Dakota. Li pral defann li a pou premye fwa nan kont undefeated Sam Toomer nan evènman an prensipal. Nan ko-headliner la, Gabriel Checco ak Francisco Lafrans ap goumen pou vid RFA tit la middleweight.”

Lawrence (6-2) retounen nan sit la nan genyen nan pi gwo nan karyè li. Denye mwa Out nan RFA 17, 24-zan la vigoureux travyè pran vid RFA tit la plum pa besting Mark Dickman via Inanim Desizyon nan sa ki te South Dakota nan trè premye sanksyon batay tit mond mma. Genyen an te dezyèm viktwa tou dwat Lawrence a depi rantre nan RFA a. Before that he had gained worldwide notoriety as a star on the fifteenth season of the UFC’s hit reality show The Ultimate Fighter, kote li te premye chwazi a an jeneral. Sou montre nan, Lawrence anrejistre bobin rekò veterinè KO a nan RFA alun ak aktyèl zetwal ch James Krause kòm byen ke fyète ak evantyèlman ch avyon de gè Cristiano Marcelo. Lawrence, yon ansyen de-tan Gan Golden chanpyon ak dekore kickboxer, sèlman te gen yon 3-0 dosye nan mma nan moman an, men rive nan trimès-final yo anvan touche “Goumen nan mitan lannwit lan” ak “KO nan mitan lannwit lan” bonis pou KO visye li nan Jan Cofer nan premye ch li. Lawrence, ki te batay soti nan Alliance mma nan Chula Vista, California, se anvi yon lòt fwa ankò montre konpetans vante travyè li nan premye defans RFA tit plum l '.

“Yon fwa mwen tande mwen ta dwe defann senti m 'ki nan South Dakota, Mwen te panse sa a se pè,” Lawrence eksplike. “Sanford Pentagòn a se youn nan avni yo pi byen mwen te janm goumen nan. Mwen te santi m konfòtab, chanm nan kazye te gwo, ak foul moun yo te kokenn. Sam Toomer se yon gwo atlèt ak yon bon men dwat. Mwen pral gen yo sèvi ak anvwaye mwen, foutvork, and out-finesse him. Li te pwouve yo dwe yon pwovokatè merite, men mwen gade pou pi devan pou ba li premye pèdi l 'yo.”

TOOMER (9-0) yo pral nonm sa a defi Lawrence pou RFA lò. Unlike most top mixed martial artists, like Lawrence, ki soti nan Débats oswa orijin travyè, TOOMER te yon jwè foutbòl dire tout lavi. Sepandan, 27-zan defans la foutbòl nan kolèj tounen te fè yon tranzisyon ki byen pase a mma pa itilize Atletisme natirèl li, disiplin, and unbreakable work ethic to compile an impressive 9-0 dosye depi fè premye l 'pro twa zan de sa. Two of those wins have come in the past eight months after Toomer signed with the RFA. TOOMER te genyen premye l 'nan RFA RFA 15 nan mwa jen ak yon pèfòmans dominan. Batay la yon sèl-sided wè opozan l 'yo Daniel Aguiar jwenn diskalifye nan wonn nan twazyèm apre refize kanpe pou ou goumen ak Toomer. Genyen an DQ sou Aguiar via krentif mete non Toomer la sou kat jeyografik la plum RFA kòm yon contender tit lejitim. Nan mwa Desanm, TOOMER solidifye ka l 'pou yon piki tit ak yon genyen reaparisyon vanyan sou Lyoto Machida protégé Altair Alencar nan RFA 21. TOOMER, ki te batay soti nan mma a Arena nan San Diego, California, se kounye a angrenaj moute pou antreprann nan pi gwo nan karyè atletik l 'nan mwa avril, jan li defi trè-fè konnen RFA chanpyon nan Lawrence pou tit l '.

“Li santi l gwo ap resevwa pou goumen pou yon tit mond RFA,” deklare Toomer. “Te koup mwen premye a eksperyans ak RFA a te gwo, men sa a se premye fwa mwen kòm evènman prensipal la epi mwen gade pou pi devan pou genyen tit la. Justin Lawrence se yon advèsè ekselan ak chanpyon nan pou yon rezon. M 'ap chache pou pi devan pou gen yon batay enteresan avè l' nan RFA 25 nan South Dakota.

Evènman an ko-prensipal la RFA 25 pral tou prezante yon batay ant de tit akonpli RFA veterinè, ki rive nan tou de lagrèl soti nan Brezil. Gabriel “Zangief” Checco (8-1) te fè premye entènasyonal l 'nan mwa Oktòb nan evènman an prensipal nan RFA 19. Apre vini kout nan premye òf li pou tit la middleweight RFA Jou lannwit sa a Jake Collier, ki moun ki te imedyatman ki te siyen pa ch la, Checco rmonte nan yon fason gwo pi bonè mwa sa a nan RFA 23. He made a huge statement with a blistering first round knockout of the highly-touted The Ultimate Fighter 11 cast member Joseph Henle. Checco pral kounye a fè fas a peizan parèy li parèy ak jyu-jitsu senti nwa Francisco “Kiko” Lafrans (11-3-1) pou tit la. France enters the fight with a ton of momentum after steamrolling his first two opponents in the RFA. Denye mwa Out, nan premye vwayaj RFA a nan South Dakota, France submitted local standout Isaac Appel with a first round Kimura. Li swiv li ke siksè ak yon lòt premye fini wonn nan RFA 21 nan mwa desanm. Li te fè ka l 'pou yon tit tire Jou lannwit sa a pa expédition la ap veterinè Mikey Gomez ak yon premye tou bra-Triyang Toufe.

RFA 25 pral make retounen nan de plis RFA veterinè nan divizyon an mouch. Abèl “Silent asasen an” Cullum (20-6) yo pral jete desann nan 125-liv la pou premye fwa a nan rakonte mma karyè li fè fas a Sioux Falls natal Josh “Raj nan” Divage (24-11). Cullum te fè yon reaparisyon liv istwa sa a tonbe sot pase yo apre yon lakun twa ane soti nan espò a. Nan premye RFA li nan RFA 18, Cullum soumèt ch veterinè Ulysses Gomez nan 89 segonn.

JEFF CURRAN: Pa rele li yon reaparisyon!

RFA 24 Nan Minnesota

VANDREDI MARCH 6TH Ap viv sou BEARINGS AXS televizyon

BY K. David Bena

Ch, PRIDE, WEC, WFA, IFLA, Strikeforce. Sèlman gen yon sèl avyon de gè goumen pou tout sis nan pwomosyon sa yo ki kounye a anba parapli a Zuffa. Sa avyon de gè? Jeff “Big krapo” Curran.

Curran fini pran retrèt 19-mwa l ', li antre nan oktagòn lan nan RFA 24 sou Vandredi, Mas 6th nan Mystic Lake Casino la & Hotel nan Anvan Lake, Minnesota. Ap evènman an ap televize ap viv ak tout peyi sou BEARINGS AXS televizyon. Bantamweight nan veteran, Curran (36-16-1) pral teste kouraj l 'nan evènman an ko-prensipal kont torantueu Melvin Blumer la (11-2) ki moun ki touting yon 5-batay genyen tras.

Panse tounen nan 1991… Ki sa ou te fè? Oke, Curran te yon lajè-Peas 14-ane fin vye granmoun ki te deside nan tren jyu-jitsu. Curran eksplike, “Premye klas mwen, Mwen te aprann yon bagay yo rele 'penti etaj la’ tou li te ye kòm yon Americana ak mwen te konnen sa a, se sa m 'te vle fè ak mwen jis kontinye fòmasyon jyu-jitsu depi tout tan. Mwen te kenbe konsantre sou tèt mwen tankou yon atlèt ak yon avyon de gè ak yon sèl bagay kenbe ki mennen ale nan yon lòt.”

Vit-pou pi devan pou Out 16, 2013 nan RFA 9, Curran pèdi yon desizyon fann nan yon batay tit bantamweight kont Pedro Munhoz. “Mwen pran retrèt apre batay dènye mwen an RFA a. Mwen te goumen pou yon tit nan lemonn ak gen nan chak pi gwo montre nan espò a ak te goumen, nan tan sa a, pou 17 ane. Mwen jis te santi ke ak biznis mwen an ak jimnastik la, kote mwen te nan ki etap nan lavi m ', timoun mwen ak fanmi, Mwen te panse ke li te tan yo pran retrèt ou.”

Curran ajoute, “Men,, sitou, Mwen pa t 'vle yo dwe dezyèm pi bon, Mwen pa janm te vle fè mwayèn kòm yon avyon de gè. Yon fwa mwen te santi menm rèv la ale oswa te opòtinite a ale nan monte tounen nan ch la, al goumen mesye yo pi byen nan mond lan, Mwen te santi m li te pi bon yo sispann depi pwemye mwen kalite pase.”

Sepandan, apre atansyon enteryorite ak dezi a an dife yo kontinye batay, Curran deside etap tounen nan kalòj la. “Mwen te vle genyen batay la, genyen senti a, epi ale soti sou tèt. Mwen te santi m li ta yon reyèl fason admirab nan pran retrèt ou, men li pa t 'ale wout mwen. Se konsa, mwen pran retrèt – epi li pa janm chita byen avè m ',” Curran eksplike. “Ak tan an plis ki te ale nan, Mwen te santi m bezwen nan goumen. Mwen te kòmanse gade pou opòtinite ak RFA jwenn yon opòtinite pou m 'al goumen ankò. Se konsa, isit la mwen menm.”

Jungle wòl tankou yon moun k'ap fanmi, nonm biznis, antrenè, ak avyon de gè ta ka fè kèk moun nan tèt vire, men Curran eksplike, “Mwen te gen jimnastik mwen anvan m 'te gen batay premye mwen, Se konsa, mwen te toujou itilize yo responsablite nan divize tan mwen, men kounye a li nan yon anpil plis nan pwofondè-pase sa li itilize yo dwe paske konbatan mwen yo nan diferan nivo epi mande pou plis tan. Biznis se tou sou yon nivo diferan – epi mwen te gen de ti gason ki yo ap grandi pi vit pa jou a ak mwen gen madanm mwen. Genyen responsablite atravè Komisyon Konsèy la ak li nan plis pase sa li te orè-ki gen bon konprann pase tounen lè mwen te louvri yon lekòl. Yeah, li nan yon anpil nan Jungle, men mwen fè li.”

Atravè tout responsablite li, Curran kenbe konsantre pou batay kap vini li yo ak danjere Melvin Blumer la, “Genyen li tras pale komèsan, espesyalman nan Midwès la paske yon anpil nan mesye yo ou goumen yo trè menm jan an nan fòs ak konpetans seri, konsa ou jwenn konpetisyon difisil ak pwomotè lokal yo nan Midwès la toujou ap chèche mete yo sou bon batay. Yon nèg ki se 11-2 (Blumer) ak sou yon 5-batay genyen tras se enpresyonan m 'ak li nan ekzakteman ki sa mwen vle.”

Curran eksplike pi lwen, “Mwen pa vle goumen kèk bom oswa goumen yon moun mwen konnen mwen ka bat. Mwen vle goumen yon moun ki ka defi m 'ak kite m' konnen si mwen toujou fè pati nan jwèt la oswa ban m 'sans nan dwa nan akonplisman si mwen genyen, se konsa Blumer nan yon opozan gwo. Blumer se difisil. Mwen ba l 'ase respè nan tren manman bourik mwen an koupe ak trete l' tankou yon dis tèt nèg. Men, avèk ki yo te di, Mwen konnen mwen se dis tèt kalib, se konsa mwen pote tout bagay mwen te resevwa e mwen panse li pral fè pou batay la byen.”

Ak sa ki se pwochen etap Curran a ak yon viktwa? Menm se li ki pa sèten, “Mwen pa konnen sa deplase pwochen mwen an se. Mwen pa t 'fè yon definitif desizyon yon sèl fason oubyen yon lòt. Yo dwe onèt, Mwen konnen lè m 'pèdi, pou pran retrèt pa t 'anfòm byen avè m', men ak dwat a genyen li gen plis chans te kapab, men an menm tan an ak genyen nan dwa, Mwen ka jwenn atansyon a nan ch la epi deside si mwen vle kouri dèyè premye ch viktwa m 'yo.”

Sou Vandredi, Mas 6th, Curran ak ap gade tout moun ap mande sa ki nan “Big krapo la” antrepriz pwochen nan lavi yo pral.
