STAFFORD, TX. (八月 5, 2021) – Two-division world champion 吉列爾莫·裡貢多·奧爾蒂斯 gave insight into his training camp as he prepares to take on WBO Bantamweight World Champion John Riel Casimero 週六, 八月 14 in the main event live on SHOWTIME from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California in a Premier Boxing Champions event.

該活動由TGB Promotions推廣. 門票現已發售，可在 AXS.com 購買. The SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast will begin at 10 P.M. ET /下午7時. PT and will see Cuba’s two-time Olympic gold medalist Rigondeaux, who has earned pound-for-pound recognition at various points in his career, return to action against the Philippine’s Casimero, a three-division world champion looking for a career-best victory in his second 118-pound title defense.

Here is what Rigondeaux had to say about training camp with Ronnie Shields and more:

On his upcoming matchup with John Riel Casimero: “It has been a very focused camp, and I have found inspiration watching the Olympics, and it has lit a spark in me. Winning two gold medals in my early years gives me added incentive to win this fight. I want to prove to the world that I am one of the best boxers ever, and that I have a lot left to give in this sport. I am confident that I am going to do that against the most avoided fighter in my weight class. Casimero is a dangerous fighter and a very powerful puncher, but I’m going to tame him with great boxing skills.”

On his recent training camp with coach Ronnie Shields: “Training in Texas with Ronnie Shields has been great and our energy working together is fantastic. Ronnie has had a lot of world champions, and has a very professional boxing gym, with a lot of world champions and fighters who are competing at the highest level of the sport. I am motivated to work hard, not just to reach my own goals, but by all the young fighters in the gym who are driven and focused. The atmosphere has brought something new out of me. I’m revived and feeling young again.”

On fighting for WBO world title: “It always feels good fighting for a world title, and I have had the WBO title before after I beat Nonito Donaire, but this time I’m going up against a hungry young lion. I am looking to capture another world title, and give another great fight that fans will talk about for years.”

On returning to the ring after a year-long layoff: “我感覺很好. I think at this point in my career, all the time away from the ring helps. I know how to fight and I know how to train, the big thing is knowing how to recover, and not damage my body. I am doing a good job at staying sharp in the gym, but not over training. A win against Casimero will do wonders for my career.”

Description automatically generated with medium confidence — ***Former World Champion Ivan Baranchyk and U.K. Stars***
***Daniel Dubois and Tommy Fury Compete in Separate Pay-Per-View Bouts from Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland***

紐約 (八月 2, 2021) – Three more exciting matchups have been finalized for the highly-anticipated **傑克·保羅vs. Tyron Woodley** SHOWTIME PPV fight card. 前世界冠軍 **Ivan Barancyhk** will compete along with U.K. 明星 **Daniel “Dynamite” Dubois** 和 **Tommy “TNT” Fury** making their U.S. debuts in separate bouts on **星期天, 八月 29** from Rocket Mortgage Field House in Cleveland, 俄亥俄.

The card also features the previously announced world championship showdown between Puerto Rican star and WBC/WBO Featherweight World Champion **阿曼達“實打實”塞拉諾** and super bantamweight world champion **Yamileth Mercado** 墨西哥, which will serve as the co-featured bout.

A former junior welterweight world champion, **Baranchyk** will step into the ring to face the unbeaten Cleveland-native **蒙大拿愛** in a 10-round showdown on the pay-per-view. Baranchyk seeks another run at the 140-pound title, while Love looks to score a career-best win.

The hard-hitting heavyweight **Dubois**, 誰是排名第. 1 由WBA, 將面臨 **Joe Cusumano** 在10輪對決, 和憤怒, the younger brother of heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury, will square off against combat sports veteran **Anthony “Pretty Boy” Taylor** in a six-round, 180-pound catchweight fight to open the pay-per-view telecast.

The pay-per-view telecast is produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV. Barstool Sportsbook is the official sports betting partner for the event and will be incorporated in a unique, fully integrated brand activation that is to be announced in more detail.

The Belarusian Baranchyk now fights out of Oklahoma and will look to move closer to another world title opportunity with a win August 29. Sporting a 20-2 創紀錄 13 擊倒, the 28-year-old returns to the ring after fighting in the 2020 Fight of the Year against Jose Zepeda last October. The two fighters combined to score a staggering eight knockdowns in the instant classic won by Zepeda. Baranchyk became a world champion in 2018 by stopping then unbeaten Anthony Yigit in seven rounds. He steps in against Love, a graduate of the *的ShoBox: 新一代* series who owns a 15-0-1 record with seven knockouts. A highly accomplished amateur, Love will be fighting in his hometown of Cleveland for the second time in his career.

“This is a big step for me,” said Baranchyk. “I am grateful to get back in the ring with someone like Montana after my loss. I want to show everyone that I’m back, I’m stronger, and I’m a new version of myself. I want to thank my fans for the support you’ve always given me. 八月 29, it’s SHOWTIME, 嬰兒!”

“I know Ivan is a strong young fighter, but he has some ugly habits,” said Love. “We’re having a grueling camp right now and I’m going to keep it ‘Too Pretty’ on fight night. Cleveland deserves the show I’m about to put on.”

A promising heavyweight contender at 23 歲, Dubois has compiled a 16-1 創紀錄 15 knockouts since turning pro in 2017. Dubois had an impressive amateur career as a five-time British junior national champion. A London-native, Dubois’ lone professional loss came against top heavyweight contender Joe Joyce in November 2020. Dubois rebounded quickly with an emphatic second-round knockout of Bogdan Dinu in June to capture the Interim WBA Heavyweight Title. 現在, he takes on the 33-year-old Cusumano, who has won four of his last five bouts with all of those victories coming by stoppage. With a record of 19-3, 他的 17 knockouts give him an impressive 77% KO率. Fighting out of Danville, 弗吉尼亞州, Cusumano most recently knocked out Gregory Corbin in November 2020.

“I am ready now to push on and build on the WBA interim title I won in my last fight,” said Dubois. “I am thrilled to take the show on the road and look to win the American public over. I am told the American public love heavyweight boxing, so it is time to introduce them to Daniel Dubois. I will make sure it is a name they won’t forget.”

Already a crossover star after his runner-up finish on the hit U.K. reality TV show “Love Island”, Fury will look to follow in the footsteps of his boxing-rich family and establish his own championship legacy. The 23-year-old from Manchester is 6-0 四擊倒, having most recently earned a unanimous decision over Jordan Grant in June. Fury will be opposed by Alameda, California’s Taylor, an experienced MMA competitor who dropped his sole pro boxing appearance in 2017 by split-decision. The 32-year-old’s MMA experience includes five Bellator fights and a 7-5 overall record with wins in his last five fights. Taylor is currently training in Puerto Rico and is a regular sparring partner of Jake Paul as he prepares for his bout against Woodley.

“American fans can, as always with me, expect a big dirty knockout,” said Fury. “That is what I say and that is what I try to bring. I want to put on a masterclass performance and show levels again and show how much I am improving. This is another step on my journey to world titles.”

BELLATOR MMA Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix Resumes With Semifinals at Footprint Center in Phoenix October 16

八月 6, 2021 FNU47 發表評論

Light Heavyweight World Champion Vadim Nemkov Set To Defend Title Against ‘Rumble’ Johnson, While Ryan Bader Goes Toe-To-Toe With Corey Anderson Live on SHOWTIME^®在 10 P.M. ET /下午7時. PT

LOS ANGELES– BELLATOR MMA’s massive second half of 2021 keeps rolling on Saturday, 十月 16, when both of the high-profile semifinal matchups for the Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix take place at the Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury. Light heavyweight kingpin瓦迪姆Nemkov (14-2) defends his world championship against No. 4 排名安東尼 “Rumble” Johnson (23-6), while current BELLATOR Heavyweight World Champion瑞安貝德 (28-6) facesNo. 2-ranked light heavyweight科里·安德森 (15-5) 在合作的主要事件.

The preliminary fights will stream live on the BELLATOR MMA YouTube channel, 在安卡斯維爾的 Mohegan Sun Arena 內的共同特色比賽中 7 P.M. ET / 4時三十分. PT. Additional bouts and ticket information will be announced at a later date.

Team Fedor’s Vadim Nemkov looks to remain BELLATOR 205-pound champion on September 25, further cementing his status as the best light heavyweight fighter on the planet. 在他的最後一次郊遊, Nemkov went five hard rounds with former champion菲爾·戴維斯, earning a unanimous decision victory en route to punching his ticket to the semifinals. Should Nemkov defend his belt again and move on to the grand prix final, between Davis—a wrestler by trade—and the power-punching “Rumble,” Nemkov will have showcased his full repertoire as a mixed martial artist in the tournament. Nemkov has been perfect in BELLATOR to this point, winning all six of his contests including three knockouts and a submission.

“Rumble” Johnsonmade his BELLATOR MMA debut in the opening round of the grand prix, engaging in a back-and-forth affair with Jose Augusto before notching another signature “Rumble” knockout in the second round. 憑藉這場勝利, the 37-year-old made it clear his time away from the sport has not slowed him down, and with wins over the likes of Glover Teixeira, 亞歷山大·古斯塔夫松, Phil Davis and current BELLATOR heavyweight champion Ryan Bader, “Rumble” remains one of the most imposing forces in the entire sport.

A winner in eight of his last ten bouts, Arizona State University’s “Darth” Bader will have a home game as he looks to keep the ball rolling when he steps into the BELLATOR cage for the ninth time, on the road to re-capturing the 205-pound belt he once held. Bader—despite his participation in the Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix—remains the BELLATOR Heavyweight Champion, a title he plans on unifying with the interim-champValentin Moldavksy following the conclusion of the 205-pound tournament. Bader’s storied career has earned him the moniker of a legend slayer, with wins over all-time greats like費多爾艾米連科, 安東尼奧·羅熱諾蓋拉, 拉沙德·埃文斯（Rashad Evans）, and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.

Corey Anderson has made an excellent impression since his arrival in BELLATOR, reeling off two dominant victories over the likes of veteran梅爾文Manhoefand former ACA ChampionDovletdzhan Yagshimuradov, both ending via TKO. The Rockton, 生病. product came to the promotion boasting an already impressive resumé, previously triumphing over Johnny Walker, Glover Teixeira and Jan Błachowicz amongst others.

Unbeaten Two-Time World Champion David Benavídez Will Battle Former Champion Jose Uzcategui in a WBC Super Middleweight Title Eliminator Saturday, 八月 28 住在Showtime

八月 6, 2021 FNU47 發表評論

**Unbeaten Super Bantamweight Contender Carlos Castro Faces Former Title Challenger Oscar Escandon To Open Telecast**
**在 10 P.M. ET /下午7時. PT**

鳳凰 (七月 29, 2021) – Unbeaten two-time world champion **David “El Bandera Roja” Benavídez** will square off against former champion **喬斯·斯卡特圭** in a WBC Super Middleweight title eliminator as Benavídez returns to his hometown of Phoenix for the first time in six years in the SHOWTIME main event on Saturday, 八月 28 in a Premier Boxing Champions event from Footprint Center – home of the Phoenix Suns and Mercury.

欣欣拳擊錦標賽轉播開始於 10 P.M. ET /下午7時. PT and will feature the much-awaited return of longtime contender **Jose Benavídez**, the older brother of David Benavídez, facing Argentina’s **Francisco Emanuel Torres** in the 10-round super welterweight co-main event. Kicking off the telecast is undefeated contender **Carlos Castro** 接受前冠軍挑戰者 **奧斯卡埃斯坎東** 在10輪超輕量級回合. The Benavídez brothers and Castro hail from Phoenix and have their sights set on impressing their hometown fans.

門票現場活動, which is promoted by Sampson Boxing and TGB Promotions, are on sale now and are available for purchase through Ticketmaster.com.

“I am happy to be bringing David ‘El Bandera Roja’ Benavidez back to his hometown to fight after so many years away,” said Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson Boxing. “It is going to be a sensational welcome party for him and all the fans.”

Still just 24-years-old, Benavídez (24-0, 21 科斯) enters this fight having knocked out his last four opponents, including a September 2019 knockout of two-time super middleweight champion Anthony Dirrell. 最近, he earned stoppage victories over Roamer Alexis Angulo in August 2020 and Ronald Ellis in March of this year. Benavídez is trained by his father José Sr., 沿著他的兄弟和前冠軍挑戰者, 約瑟夫·JR. 在 2017, 他通過在剛上精彩表演擊敗羅納德·加弗里爾成為拳擊歷史上最年輕的超中量級冠軍 20 歲. Representing his native Phoenix, 亞利桑那州。, Benavídez went from a 15-year-old prodigy sparring with Gennady Golovkin and Peter Quillin, 與來自10戰鬥淘汰賽連勝世界冠軍爭奪 2015 通過 2017, including a highlight-reel knockout of Rogelio Medina with a seven-punch combination that earned him his first title opportunity.

“I’m super excited to fight in front of my hometown fans,” said Benavídez. “It’s a dream come true for me to come back home as a two-time world champion. I’m training for Uzcategui like he’s a world champ because he has a lot of experience and he’s a hungry fighter. I know that he needs this win, 但我不會讓這種情況發生. I’m staying dedicated and motivated to win on August 28 on SHOWTIME and I want to look impressive doing it in order to get even bigger and better fights in the future.”

Born in Venezuela and fighting out of Tijuana, 墨西哥, Uzcategui (31-4, 26 科斯) captured a 168-pound world title in March of 2018 by stopping veteran contender Andre Dirrell after eight rounds. The 30-year-old put himself in position to fight for a title with four-straight stoppage victories from 2015 通過 2016, including a win over then-unbeaten Julius Jackson. Since losing the title to unbeaten champion Caleb Plant in January 2019, Uzcategui has rebounded to win three of his last four fights, including knockout wins in 2021 over Jaime Hernandez Lopez and Josue Obando.

“I’m excited to be back on the big stage for this fight,” said Uzcategui. “I know what I’m up against with Benavídez. 他是一個偉大的戰士, and that’s my biggest motivation. This is going to be a war and I can’t wait to give the people a great fight. Both of us come to brawl, so this is going to be a classic on August 28.”

The 28-year-old Benavídez (27-1, 18 科斯) is the older brother of main event headliner David and returns to fight in his hometown of Phoenix for the first time in six years. A long-established contender, Benavídez will return to action for the first time since dropping a 147-pound title showdown to Terence Crawford in October 2018. Benavídez had previously earned wins over contenders such as Mauricio Herrera, Francisco Santana and Frank Rojas on his way to that world title opportunity.

“I’m really excited to be back in the ring after being out for a while,” said Benavidez. “I feel more mature, motivated and stronger than ever. Fighting alongside my brother and in my hometown is really a dream come true. I’m really looking forward to making a tremendous comeback. It doesn’t matter who they put in front of me, I guarantee that I’m going to take them out. No one is going to want to miss this night, because me and my brother are bringing the fireworks.”

A native of boxing-rich Buenos Aires, 阿根廷, Torres (17-3, 5 科斯) enters this fight the winner of his last nine contests dating back to 2018. The 31-year-old will fight in the U.S. for the third time on August 28, having scored stateside victories over Cleotis Pendarvis in August 2020 and Louis Hernandez in February of this year. Torres most recently won a unanimous decision over Alexi Rivera in June as he prepares for his toughest fight to date against Benavídez.

“I’m very pumped up for this fight,” said Torres. “I want to thank my whole team for this opportunity to participate in such an important fight. This is a great chance for me to go to the next level against a great fighter who’s had an exceptional career. I will work very hard to get the victory on August 14 and raise high the flag of Argentina.”

卡斯特羅 (26-0, 11 科斯) has climbed the rankings since turning pro in 2012 as he seeks a shot at a super bantamweight championship. The Phoenix-native added two victories in 2020, defeating Jesus Ruiz in February before stopping longtime contender Cesar Juarez in four rounds in July. Castro was coming off a 2019 campaign that saw him score three victories, including 10-round unanimous decision triumphs over former title challenger Genesis Servania and veteran contender Mario Diaz.

“I’m very grateful for this opportunity to fight an excellent opponent in Oscar Escandon,” said Castro. “I’m very motivated to put on a great performance in front of my hometown fans. 八月 28, I’m going to be ready to showcase all of my skills and hard work in the ring so I leave with my hand raised.”

A native of Ibague, 哥倫比亞, 埃斯卡登 (26-5, 18 科斯) has faced a slew of top contenders and champions including featherweight champion Gary Russell Jr. and super bantamweight champion Brandon Figueroa, plus hard-hitting contender Tugstsogt Nyambayar. Escandon captured an interim title in 2016 when he knocked out Robinson Castellanos to earn his world title shot against Russell. 最近, Escandon scored a first-round knockout over previously unbeaten contender Jhack Tepora in December of 2019.

“I’m very focused on training for this fight because I know a win can lead me back to another world title opportunity,” 埃斯坎登說. “Castro is a good young fighter who has a solid jab and can move. But I think he’s the perfect opponent for me. There are a lot of things we can do to win this fight and I can’t wait to go in there on August 28 and show it.”

BELLATOR ANNOUNCES BLOCKBUSTER EVENT FOR THEIR RETURN TO LONDON FRIDAY, 華僑城. 1

八月 6, 2021 FNU47 發表評論

門票開始發售本星期五

倫敦, 聯合王國 – 今天, BELLATOR MMA announced it will be returning to The SSE Arena, Wembley in London on Friday, 十月 1, 同BELLATOR London, a card headlined by a must-see rematch between No. 1 排名Douglas “The Phenom” Lima (32-9) 和No. 2 排名邁克爾“毒液”頁面 (19-1).

Fans in attendance at The SSE Arena, Wembley and those tuning in from around the world can expect an explosive night of elite MMA action in the capital, with two of the world’s best welterweights going toe-to-toe in a high-stakes match-up. Lima and Page will be putting everything on the line in pursuit of a win, with the fighter who emerges victorious booking themselves a fast-track ticket to a title shot against newly crowned welterweight champion, 雅羅斯拉夫Amosov.

For the first time since February 2020, BELLATOR MMA fans in Europe will be able to fill the arena for the event that features a showcase of top international and homegrown athletes.

門票BELLATOR London: 利馬VS. MVP 2 go on sale on Friday, 七月 30, with a special pre-sale Thursday, 七月 29 and can be purchased online fromaxs.com/uk 和BELLATOR.com.

該 BELLATOR London main card action will kick off at 9 P.M. BST/4 p.m. AND, while the preliminary card begins at 5:30 P.M. BST/12:30 P.M. AND. BELLATOR fans can watch the event live on SHOWTIME (我們), BBC iPlayer (聯合王國), as well as both Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Sport (愛爾蘭).

Lima and Page first met inside the BELLATOR Cage in May 2019 在BELLATOR 221in the semifinals of BELLATOR’s Welterweight World Grand Prix. 甚至第一輪後, Lima sent Page to the canvas with a sweeping leg kick, which he then followed up with a spectacular punch and ground and pound strikes to finish the fight.

Lima will be looking to cause an upset for the hometown faithful and stop Page for a second time, denying the Londoner his chance for gold, and earning himself an immediate shot at recapturing the welterweight title which he lost to雅羅斯拉夫Amosov via unanimous decision in June of this year.

“MVP has put together an impressive string of wins together, but when he gets back in the cage with me, the end result is going to be the same as the first time,” said Lima. “Right now, I’m on a mission to put the BELLATOR belt back around my waist. Anyone standing in my way will be dismantled.”

Widely regarded as the poster boy of MMA in the UK, Londoner Michael “Venom” Page, or ‘MVP’ as he is known to his fans, will step into the BELLATOR cage fresh off the back of his spectacular first round TKO victory over德里克“野蠻”安德森今年五月. Currently riding a five-fight win streak full of highlight real knockouts, the only defeat on Page’s MMA record to date came at the hands of Lima, a loss that he is hungry to avenge.

“The comeback is always bigger than the setback. It was always gonna happen, it’s written in the stars,” said Page. “The one and only MVP is back, and I will have my redemption in front of my hometown the only way I know how – in venomous style.”

The current fight card is available below with additional bouts to be announced in the coming weeks.
