West Coast Fighting in Sacramento this Saturday
SACRAMENTO, קאַליף. - דאס שבת mixed martial arts fans will pour into the McClellan Conference Center in Sacramento for West Coast Fighting Championship 16.
The 13-bout card features a main event that’s been dubbed “King of Sacramento” pitting local favorites Max Griffin and David Mitchell.
“It wasn’t easy, but we were able to put it together,” West Coast Fighting Championship matchmaker Jeremy Luchau said. “There was a lot that had to be negotiated between Max and David, but ultimately I feel like both guys were able to concede in some areas to make the fight happen.”
The showdown will take place at a catch weight of 175 pounds and although a non-title affair will be contested with a possible five rounds.
Griffin (11-2) is the current West Coast Fighting 170-pound champ and former Tachi Palace Fights welterweight kingpin. דערווייַל, Mitchell (19-5) has held titles for the promotion at middleweight and heavyweight.
“I’m not sure there’s been a more significant fight booked in that region in a long time,” said Luchau, who has served as the West Coast Fighting matchmaker since early 2015. “I really believe that with a victory, one of these guys should get the call.”
אין די גלויבנס-הויפּט געשעעניש, an equally impressive tilt takes place pitting Sacramento’s Josh Emmett against Sothern California’s Christos Giagos.
“Emmett has been the man in the region for a long, לאַנג צייַט,” Luchau said of the 8-0 Team Alpha Male product. “He has pretty much run the course of competition in the region, defeated all comers and is now looking to make that jump to the next level.”
He will have to do so against the well-versed Giagos (11-4), who held titles at both Tachi Palace Fights and Resurrection Fighting Alliance, before being cut from the Ultimate Fighting Championship after going 1-2.
“Giagos is a game opponent and was just the what the Emmett camp was looking for to give them that boost to the next level,” Luchau said. “It’s another fight where I feel like the UFC could be the next step for either guy.”
A pair of local heavyweights will vie for the newly vacant strap, as Josh Appelt (11-5) takes on Roy Boughton (12-6).
A pair of UFC vets will also be featured on the undercard, as Turlock welterweight and UFC vet Lewis Gonzalez (10-2) fights Ty Freeman (9-4) און שווער-היטטינג, UFC vet Scott Smith (18-10) clashes with Bellator vet Baesman (17-8).

אויך: LENA OVCHYNNIKOVA SET FOR BELLATOR MMA DEBUT
סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. (יאַנואַר 15, 2015) – An injury to אַוגוסטאָ סאַקאַי has derailed his previously announced pairing with טשעיקק קאָנגאָ (23-10-2) during “בעללאַטאָר 150: גאַלוואַאָ ווס. דאַנטאַס 2 " ביי קאַנסאַס שטערן ארענע אין מולוואַנע, קאַנסאַס. ווי אַ רעזולטאַט, וויניסיוס קוועיראָז (8-3) has agreed to fight Kongo in the co-main event on פעברואַר 26.
דערצו, the main card will feature the Bellator MMA debut of newly signed women’s flyweight Lena Ovchynnikova (10-3), when she meets Rebecca Ruth (5-1).
Bellator MMA’s Bantamweight Championship will be on the line at “בעללאַטאָר 150: גאַלוואַאָ ווס. דאַנטאַס 2 " in a rematch pitting Marcos "לאָראָ" גאַלוואַאָ(17-6-1) קעגן ערשטע מייַסטער Eduardo "דודו" דאַנטאַס (17-4) and hometown favorite, דוד ריקקעלס (16-4, 1 נק) will return to action against באַבי קופּער (12-5).

Kongo will be making his eighth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, looking to add to his impressive promotional mark of 5-2. The Paris native has fought a who’s who in the mixed martial arts landscape, with notable wins against Mirko Cro Cop, Pat Barry, מאַט מיטריאָנע, and Alexander Volkov already on his record. In his last outing – which just so happened to be inside the Kansas Star Arena — Kongo impressively defeated Volkov via unanimous decision.
After nearly two years out of action, Queiroz returned to the Bellator MMA cage against עווערטאָן טעיקסעיראַ בייַ "בעללאַטאָר 139: קאָנגאָ ווס. וואָלקאָוו," defeating his Brazilian opponent via second round arm-triangle choke. “Spartan” hopes to plant the seeds for a busy 2016 with the matchup against Kongo, where a win can undoubtedly place him in the midst of the heavyweight title picture.
Hailing from Ukraine, Ovchynnikova will enter the fray fresh off a new exclusive, multi-fight contract with Bellator MMA. “Hunter” has previously fought the likes of Joanne Calderwood and at only 28-years-old has already competed professionally since 2006. איצט, Ovchynnikova looks to solidify herself as a top contender in the budding women’s flyweight division on פעברואַר 26 against a tough foe in Ruth.
“Becky” Ruth was undefeated in 2015, winning all three of her matchups by echnical knockout under the Shamrock Fighting Championships banner. The lone loss on the Missouri native’s record came against Resurrection Fighting Alliance champion Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger, via controversial split decision.
The “בעללאַטאָר 150: גאַלוואַאָ ווס. דאַנטאַס 2 " undercard has also nearly been completed, with the announcement of eight pairings which are listed below. An undefeated Bellator MMA prospect will be in action during the preliminary portion of the event, ווען גאַסטאָן ריינאָ (5-0) returns to the cage with the intent of keeping his unblemished record intact.

An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez won his שאָבאָקס debut in his outing before last with a close, hard-fought 10-round majority decision over previously undefeated, Dominicanאליעזר אַקינאָו (17-0-1 געגאנגען אין). Lopez is coming off a second-round TKO over עריק Aiken לעצט דעצעמבער. 12.
Lopez was born in Phoenix, raised in Los Angeles and moved to San Antonio when he was 15. ער איז געקומען 125-23 in the amateurs and won six national championships before turning pro in February 2012. He’s trained by former two-time world champion קאַרלאָס "פאַמאָסאָ" הערנאַנדעז.
Munoz will be making his United States debut and first start outside of Mexico. A pro since September 2010, he’s known for his come-forward style, first-rate overall skills and proficient punching power. ער איז געקומען 140-10 אין די אַמאַטשערז, winning three national Junior Olympic tournaments and coming away with bronze and silver medals in national championships.
מוניאָוז, who hails from a fighting family, has an uncle who boxed professionally. He’s the one he credits for introducing him to boxing when he was 13. This will be his first fight since he scored a lopsided eight-round decision over דניאל פראַנקאָ לעצט מייַ 2.
Ellis upset highly regarded טעררעלל גאַושאַ to win the 2010 לאַנדיש גאָלדען גלאָוועס (Gausha would go on to represent the U.S. בייַ די 2012 אָלימפּיק גאַמעס). Since going pro in February 2011, Ellis has fought in two countries (פּאָרטאַ ריקאָ, מעקסיקא) and six U.S. cities (סאַן אַנטאָניאָ, Carson, קאַליף., Winchester, וואַ., ניו יארק סיטי, Tulsa and Inglewood, קאַליף.). The 26-year-old has faced mostly modest opposition and has seldom come close to putting in a full night’s work.
Ellis had had a series of delays and restarts since turning pro but feels he’s grown from his mistakes and that he’ll be stronger because of them. For sure, his power hasn’t been affected. אַלע 10 of his knockouts have come inside two rounds (eight in the first). The older brother of boxer ראַשידי עליס has won four straight by knockout, including a second-round TKO over Jas Phipps in his last start last אויגוסט. 29. But he seems to be taking a sizeable step-up in class here.
Odom is looking to turn it around after losing two of his last three, the most recent defeat coming via a shocking third-round TKO to שמואל קלאַרקסאָן (14-3 געגאנגען אין) אויף שאָבאָקס. The heavily favored, heavy-hitting Odom was dropped three times, once in the second and twice in the third, before the fight was halted at 1:15.
אָודאַם, אַ שפּיץ amateur און 2012 לאַנדיש גאָלדען גלאָוועס טשאַמפּיאָן בייַ 178 פונט, האט אַ 12-קאַמף געווינען סטריק סוף אויף Jan. 9, 2015, when he was disqualified against אנדריי הערנאַנדעז. In the rematch the followingמאַרץ 13 אויף שאָבאָקס, Odom registered a 2:47, first-round TKO.
אין זיין שאָבאָקס דעבוט, אָודאַם, who makes for exciting scraps, dropped previously unbeaten וויליער קווינאָנעז (8-0) twice before stopping him in the seventh round on July 25, 2014.
Smith won his שאָבאָקס debut in his last start on a hard-fought, eight-round unanimous decision over בנימין Whitaker לעצט נאוועמבער. 6 in an outdoor fight in Las Vegas. Fighting in memory of his mother who died in late September and going eight rounds for the first time, the 5-foot-7Smith, overcame a nasty cut over the left eye from an unintentional headbutt in the sixth, rallied to score a knockdown in the seventh and triumphed by the scores of 79-73 און 78-74 צוויי מאָל.
Before turning pro in April 2010, Smith was a 2008 National Golden Gloves Featherweight Champion and 2007 יינגער אָלימפּיק לאַנדיש טשאַמפּיאָן. His 74-2 record in the amateurs included two victories overworld-ranked contender אַמיר איך.
Romero had 268 amateur bouts and represented the Dominican Republic at the Olympics in 2012 (he lost to Vasyl Lomanchenko). Shortly thereafter he relocated to New York. He went pro in October 2013, fought four times in 2014 and five times last year.
A slick 5-foot-9 boxer who can punch and gives opponent issues because of his awkward style and movement, ראָמעראָ, 24, has beat up on ordinary opposition and is coming off a first-round TKO over לויסMeroles לעצט דעצעמבער. 5. This looks to be his most daunting assignment to date.
ווילליאַמס, 24, is a boxer-puncher who’s won seven in a row since boxing a draw in his second start in March 2013. This will be his first fight outside of New York. Making his eight-round debut in his last start onאקטאבער. 8, he won a shutout decision over Czech Republic’s Michal Dufek.
פאָסטער, 22, gets a quick-fix opportunity to redeem himself after losing hisשאָבאָקס debut on an eight-round unanimous decision to underdog סאַם סעאַה (6-1) אויף די נאוועמבער. 6 card in Las Vegas.
A highly decorated amateur, the 5-foot-8½ inch Foster advanced to the 2012 יוז. אָלימפּיק גאַמעס טריאַלס ווו ער פאַרפאַלן צו אַנביטאַן פּראָ ויסקוק, יוסף "דזשאָו-דזשאָו" דיאַז. איידער אַז, Foster was a 2011 האָוסטאָן גילדענע גלאַווז און 2010 כאַווער לאַנדיש טשאַמפּיאָן, a five-time Ringside National Champion and two-time National Junior Golden Gloves Champion.
בערי טאַמפּקינז וועט רופן די שאָבאָקס קאַמף פון רינגסייד מיט סטיוו פאַרהאָאָד און פרייַערדיק וועלט מייַסטער ראַול מאַרקעז געדינט ווי מבֿין אַנאַליס. די יגזעקיאַטיוו פּראָדוצירער איז גארדאן האַלל מיט ריטשארד גאַוגהאַן שאפן און ריק פיליפּס דיירעקטינג.
