LFA LAUNCHING PAD: LFA SENDS 9 FIGHTERS TO UFC IN 30 DAYS

THE SUMMER OF LFA

LFA ALUM IMPRESS IN THE UFC:
TITLE SHOTS, BONUSES and RECORD BREAKERS
4 SHOWS IN 4 WEEKS:
LFA SET TO VISIT 4 STATES IN 4 WEEKS
HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) has had a busy summer. In last month’s newsletter, it was reported that LFA alum accumulated $200,000 in UFC bonus money in the month of June, former RFA headliner Zach Freeman secured anUpset of the Yearnominee in New York City, and three inaugural LFA titles were awarded to get the summer started.

LFA LAUNCHING PAD
The summer continued to heat up in July. The UFC hosted 5 events along with the first 3 episodes of UFC President Dana White’s new weekly web series titled Dana White’s Dinsdag Night Contender Seriesthroughout the month.
The number of LFA alum that participated in those events was staggering. 19 fighters that have fought for LFA or the two promotions that merged to create it (RFA and Legacy FC) competed in the UFC. UFC 213 headliner Valentina Shevchenko would have made that 20 strijders, but Amanda Nunes withdrew from their title fight on the day of the fight.
The presence of LFA alum on Dana White’s new show was just as impressive. In the first three episodes that aired in July, 17 van de 30 competitors (56.6%) had previously competed for LFA, RFA, or Legacy FC. Each of the three episodes also featured twoLFA vs. LFA” lucifers. The most impressive stat, echter, is the fact that an LFA fighter was signed by Dana White off of each episode.
That trend carried over into August with a fourth LFA fighter being signed to the UFC off of the fourth episode of Dana White’s Dinsdag Night Contender Series”. The four LFA stars signed off of the show so far are Boston Salmon (Week 1), Sean O’Malley (Week 2), Geoff Neal (Week 3), and Julian Marquez (Week 4). There are currently 32 fighters from LFA scheduled to compete on theDinsdag might summer series. LFA also currently has 19 alum ranked in the latest UFC fighter rankings.
LFA ALUM IMPRESS IN THE UFC
While former LFA fighters impressed in the UFC last month with the sheer number of participants, what they accomplished in those bouts is even more important. Perhaps the biggest shining star of the bunch was former RFA featherweight champion Brian Ortega. The man known asT-Cityimproved his perfect record to 12-0 and saw his UFC fighter ranking move up to #6 in de wereld.
Ortega did this by breaking his own UFC record at UFC 214 on July 29th. Going into his bout with fellow unbeaten star Renato Moicano, Ortega held the UFC record for most consecutive third round finishes. He extended that streak by submitting Moicano in the final frame with a $50,000 UFC “Performance of the Nightbonus winning Guillotine Choke.
The following Zaterdag bij UFC Fight Night 114, RFA great Dustin Ortiz broke another UFC record to secure his own $50,000 UFC “Performance of the Nightbonus. Ortiz accomplished this feat by knocking out Hector Sandoval in 15-seconds to record the fastest finish in UFC flyweight history. His teammate and former RFA flyweight champion Sergio Pettis happened to headline the same card. Pettis won his marquee bout against Brandon Moreno unanimously in a pivotal battle between two Top 10 ranked UFC flyweights.
The UFC will be off for the next few weeks, but September looks to be just as big for the LFA greats competing inside the famed UFC Octagon. UFC 215 op September 9th will feature two LFA alum challenging for UFC world titles. Legacy FC great Ray Borg will headline the card for a shot at the UFC flyweight title, while Shevchenko will finally get a crack at the UFC women’s bantamweight title in the co-main event. Seven other LFA alum have UFC bouts already announced for next month as well.
4 SHOWS IN 4 WEEKS
LFA started August with the first title defense in the promotion’s history. Two of the inaugural LFA champions that were just crowned in June (Eryk Anders and Roberto Sanchez) have already made their UFC debut, but LFA featherweight champion KevinAngel of DeathAguilar was able to defend his title in the main event of LFA 18 afgelopen Vrijdag. He did so by sweeping the scorecards against a very game challenger in #1 contender and world-class BJJ black belt Justin Rader.
LFA is now set to end the summer with four shows in four weeks in four different states. The quadruple-header starts next week in South Dakota at LFA 19. The promotion then heads east to Minnesota the following week at LFA 20. LFA kicks off first day of September in Missouri at LFA 21. Then the final leg of the four week trip will go down in Colorado at LFA 22.

NEF verkoopt opnieuw in BANGOR AS lokale strijders schijnen DE KOOI

Bangor, Maine (Augustus 6, 2017) -Er was geen plaats zoals huis Zaterdag nacht voor C.J. Lampetkan, Ryan Sanders en Fred Lear van Young's MMA in Bangor.

Vechten voor een uitverkochte balzaal op een steenworp afstand van hun opleiding hoofdkwartier, de drie vechters boven op de kaart bij “NEF 30” Rumble in Bangor”all geplaatst indrukwekkende overwinningen op Cross Insurance Center.

Ewer versloeg Mike “The Moustache” Hansen door indiening bij 1:46 van de eerste ronde om de vacante NEF pro middengewicht titel vast te leggen. Lear landde de NEF amateur bantamgewicht riem, terwijl Sanders verstevigde zijn greep op pro lichtgewicht scene van New England in een niet-titel triomf.

Het was de tweede opeenvolgende augustus sellout in het Queen City, een traditie die begon met “NEF Presents Dana White: Kijk in’ Voor een gevecht”afgelopen zomer.

Na zijn zwaar bevochten overwinning op de bereisde Jay Ellis, NEF pro lichtgewicht kampioen Sanders, gerangschikt No. 1 regio, hield zijn opmerkingen kort en zoet, terwijl het roepen van de hiervoor genoemde Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president.

“Je hebt de verkeerde man vorig jaar,”Sanders zei. “Kom me nu.”

Sanders (15-8) had geen gemakkelijke weg tegen Ellis, een veteraan van meer dan 80 pro aanvallen. Ellis had Sanders onder controle voor het grootste deel van de strijd, maar liet zich kwetsbaar voor een driehoek stikken bij 2:34 van de eerste ronde.

Ewer verzonden Hansen met een even snelle manoeuvre.

“Het is een geweldig gevoel om te winnen in de voorkant van het thuispubliek,”Ewer zei. “Zo hard als we werkten (in trainingskamp), Ik wist niet dat er iets me kon stoppen.”

De plotselinge einde verwend hoop op het winnen van een titel voor het eerst in zijn 13-jarige mixed martial arts carrière van Hansen.

“Dit was veruit de beste trainingskamp ik ooit heb gehad. We waren net aan het opwarmen,”Hansen zei. “Ik had veel meer te geven, en ik weet zeker C.J. had veel meer te geven. maar hey, we konden het opnieuw doen.”

Lear gewezen op de amateur van de kaart met een bindende tweede ronde knock-out van Walt Shea.

Alleen de bel gered Shea van aanval Lear's aan het einde van het eerste hoofdstuk. Lear kreeg het voordeel met een trap naar het hoofd halverwege die ronde. Na bijna vergrendeling in een arm bar dat de strijd zou kunnen zijn beëindigd, Lear bloodied de eerder ongeslagen Shea een reeks aanvallen.

Het einde leek onvermijdelijk wanneer Shea hulp Lear's die nodig zijn om zijn hoek tussen de rondes vinden, en een onderbroken aanval snelde de finish enige 14 seconden later.

Een emotionele Lear prees zijn coach, Chris Young van Young's MMA, voor het bevestigen van de band rond de taille van de leraar.

“Veel mensen hier kennen zijn naam, maar ze weet niet de man,”Lear zei. “Hij is de eerste man in de sportschool in de ochtend en de laatste om te vertrekken 's nachts. Hij is de reden waarom we allemaal hier. Hij is de reden dat we succesvol zijn. Hij is de reden dat sommige van ons zijn niet in de gevangenis.”

In de eerste twee gevechten Josh Jones’ amateur MMA carrière, Jones verzonden zijn tegenstanders door one-punch knock-out in een totaal van 24 seconden. Het duurde Carlton Charles één minder tik van de klok tot het afsluiten van Jones in de prachtige afsluiting van een aangeprezen wirwar van voormalige ster collegiale atleten.

Charles, een product van de Universiteit van Maine voetbalprogramma het nemen van zijn eerste wandeling naar de NEF kooi, de tabellen ingeschakeld Jones (2-1) in een middengewicht schroot. Jones ging opnieuw voor het begin van de onderbreking met een paar looping shots, maar Charles rustig dook ze voor de landing een van zijn eigen en het nemen van de kwestie op de mat.

“Ik hou gewoon van de competitie,”Charles zei. “Je hoeft niet geraakt in het gezicht als dit op het voetbalveld.”

Wanneer de strijdende partijen weer hun voeten, Charles gesteund Jones tegen de kooi en landde twee rechter handen aan de kaak. Jones gedaald tot een knie en geabsorbeerd scherp links op het hoofd. Dat haalde de scheidsrechter in te stappen en de strijd tegen, een vonnis dat Jones en zijn First Class MMA kamp verliet zichtbaar verbaasd.

Het was Charles’ tweede eenzijdige vechtsporten overwinning in een week tijd. Hij eerder geleverde een eerste ronde TKO in de amateur boksring. Jones leed zijn eerste nederlaag sinds het maken van de overgang van basketbal, die hij speelde professioneel in Europa na de hoofdrol in Bangor's Husson University.

Een blik op Vrijdag officiële weging suggereerde dat het gevecht tussen Roger Ewer (251 pond) en Dustin Freeman (220) misschien de typische stand-up zijn, slug-it-out zwaargewicht affaire. In plaats daarvan, het veranderd in een grond-en-pond showcase dat recht was in de stuurhut Ewer's. oudere broer CJ's, het maken van zijn debuut in de NEF zeshoek op 44 jaar, gehamerd het voordeel gedurende en verdiende een TKO via onbeantwoorde tast 2:31 van de tweede stanza.

Nate Boucher verbeterd 2-0 een eerste ronde onderbreking van Jeremiah Barkac, die maakte zijn kooi debuut. Barkac kreeg een vroege voordeel in de bantamgewicht gevecht met een spervuur ​​van stakingen, maar Boucher slim opgedaan leverage met zijn benen en opgesloten in een driehoek stikken.

Winnen of verliezen, Bangor's Angela Young aangekondigd dat haar gevecht met Jessica “The Black Widow” Borga het laatste gevecht van haar carrière zou zijn. pay (6-3) gewist elke hoop op een Hollywood-eindigend met een beslissende TKO op 2:16 van de openingsronde. Jong (2-3), echtgenote van Chris, had nooit minder dan de afstand in een van haar eerdere winsten of verliezen weg.

In een onderlinge NEF en MMA debuut, Zach Faulkner blij zijn thuispubliek met een tweede-ronde overwinning op David Hart via achter naakte vernauwing. Het einde kwam op 1:42.

Jesse Hutchinson ook genoten van een triomfantelijke debuut in de amateur-rangen. Hij stopte Anthony LaPointe bij 2:43 van de eerste ronde een weltergewicht schermutseling.

It’s tough to judge,” said the Polish native who lives in nearby Marshfield (MA) regarding her position for another world title shot opportunity. “Ik hoop het. I respect her but I felt that I should implement my sharper skills. She fought hard and came at me. I thought she’d go flat in the later rounds but she didn’t.

I’m always tough on myself, Wayne (Lopes, her trainer and husband) was happy. I feel that I should have taken it to her more and I got caught up in clinches too much. The heat was difficult, I felt heated before the fight. I was more tired than usual and I let her come in winging wild punches.

Atlantic City, New Jersey (Augustus 5, 2017)–Derrick Webster continued his quest towards a world title shot by taking out Lamar Harris in a scheduled eight-round super middleweight bout that headlined a six-bout card at The Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City.
The show was promoted by Mis Downing Promotions in association with Square Ring Promotions.

Webster dropped Harris at the end of round one as he landed a perfect straight left hand. After that it was a matter of when Webster would end the night., as Harris was hurt, but came out to endure 28 seconds of pounding before the bout was stopped.
Webster, 167.8 lbs of Glassboro, NJ is now 24-1 met 13 knock-outs. Harris, 167.9 lbs of Saint Louis, Missouri is now 9-14-4.
We have been working hard, and now I am looking for a title. I want George Groves,” said Webster.
I knew after I dropped him after the first round, the fight would be over soon thereafter. I know Groves is in the tournament, so why not Badou Jack. I would love to fight him.
Prince Badi Ajamu shook eight years of ring rust to pound out an eight-round uannimous decision over Edgar Perez in a cruiserweight bout.

Ajamu, 191.4 lbs of Camden, NJ gewonnen door scores van 80-72 tweemaal en 79-73 en is nu 28-3-1. Perez, 190 lbs of Chicago is 7-22.

“Het was een goed gevecht. I give myself a C. Everything is about knockouts,” said Ajamu. “I broke him down mentally. You could see that I had a lot of ring rust, as I don’t miss as many shots as I did, but I started to feel good around the 5th round.

Ajamu has been linked to a rematch with Roy Jones, Jr. who beat Ajamu back in 2006.
Jones was ringside and believes that the fight could happen in November.
He did more than enough to earn the rematch tonight. Now it is just a matter of making it work financially and all by getting sponsorship’s and such, and that fight can happen, zei Jones.

World-ranked heavyweight Zhang Zhilei hammered out Nick Guivas in round one of their scheduled ten-round bout.

Zhilei dropped Guivas in the first frame with a hard six-punch combination in the corner. Seconds later, Zhilei finsihed off the fight with a crushing four-punch combination on the ropes and the bout was stopped at 2:43.
