Sonnen spent a majority of his 44-fight career with the UFC, a run that saw him defeat current middleweight champion Michael Bisping, and compete against the likes of Jon Jones, Anderson Silva (два пъти), Рашад Евънс, „Шогун“ Руа, Demian Maia and Brian Stann. In addition to his in-ring action, the West Linn, Ore. native has mastered the art of being in front of the camera, doing broadcast work for both ESPN and Fox Sports. Following a three-year hiatus from active MMA competition, Sonnen returned to the cage against Tito Ortiz при Bellator 170 през януари.

“The Axe Murderer” has fought in some of the most memorable feuds and battles the sport has ever seen. His wars with“Rampage” Джаксън, Tito Ortiz, Mirko Cro Cop, Vitor Belfort, Дан Хендерсън |, Kazushi Sakuraba, Chuck Liddell and Michael Bisping remain some of the more memorable bouts in MMA history. Silva is far from ready to close the book on his illustrious career, returning to action against a man that he has despised for quite some time. In addition to the PRIDE middleweight title, Silva’s trophy case includes awards for “Fight of the Year” (2003, 2004, 2007), KO на годината (2008) and multiple “Fight of the Night” awards, including one for each of his last three fights. He now looks to continue entertaining fans inside the Bellator cage and begins with a bout several years in the making.

Бивш шампион PRIDE, "Последният император" е един от най-почитаните и уважавани в тежка категория бойци на спорта е виждал. Каменно лице и тихо, Emelianenko се похвали един от най-впечатляващите непобедени ивици в историята на ММА, не губи двубой между 2001 и 2009. А мулти-световен шампион по MMA и Самбо, Фьодор наскоро се върна в спорта след кратко прекъсване, accumulating two decisive wins since his return to action.

Matt Mitrione remains poised to make an impact in the Bellator heavyweight division following two emphatic wins since signing with Bellator in 2016. The Illinois native and standout defensive end at Purdue University earned All-Big Ten honors in 2000 and subsequently earned his way into the NFL where he played six seasons as a member of the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings. Mitrione ultimately found his way into MMA where he became a high-level competitor, defeating the likes of the late Kimbo Slice, Derrick Lewis and Gabriel Gonzaga.

Hailing from Atlanta, Ga. “The Phenom” has been ruling the roost at 170-pounds in Bellator for the better part of three years. A winner of 16 на неговата последна 18 конкурси, the American Top Team product remains set on doing away with all viable contenders at welterweight and his first step since reclaiming the strap from Андрей Koreshkov comes against one of Bellator’s newest signees, Лоренц Ларкин.

Set to enter the Bellator fray is a “Monsoon” of violent proportions – unanimously ranked on lists compiling the top-ten welterweights on the planet, Larkin is set to continue his career in Bellator, after inking an exclusive, multi-fight contract last week. A known finisher, the pride of Riverside, Халиф. will make his promotional debut a winner of four out of five.

Chandler will look to defend his belt for the first time since successfully defending it in a “Fight of the Year” candidate against Benson Henderson през ноември миналата година. A 16-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Chandler has consistently proven that he belongs among the world’s elite, riding into his bout on Юни 24 on a streak of four straight victories.

Also a native of Oregon, the surging Primus remains unbeaten after five consecutive wins to begin his Bellator MMA career. На само 31, Primus has been committed to honing his craft since he was 13, going as far as to sell his landscaping business to keep his hopes of someday becoming a champion alive. На Юни 24, he finally has the opportunity to make his dreams come to fruition.

LACEY TO TAKE ON BELLATOR VETERAN AT NEF 28

Оставете коментар

 

За незабавно освобождаване: Lewiston, Maine (Март 7, 2017) – New England Битки (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” в събота, Април 29, 2017 най Androscoggin Bank Colisee в Lewiston на, Maine. По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Арон “Безмилостен” Lacey (4-0) подписа на лицето Уолтър “All-Day” Smith-Cotito (4-5) в бой тегло от 145 килограма.

Aaron Lacey, undefeated as a professional, has won seven in a row going back to his amateur career. He was prepared to compete at “NEF 27” миналия месец, but Mother Nature had other plans when a snowstorm prevented his opponent from making the trip to Lewiston from Florida. The setback has made Lacey even hungrier to return to action, but the Young’s MMA standout knows that he has his toughest test to date in front of him in the form of Cotito.

“This is going to be an amazing fight,” said Lacey. “Walter is a skilled and dangerous opponent, and he is realistically one of the most dangerous people I have fought to date. That’s alright with me though – the tougher the opponent, толкова по-трудно работя. After what went down in February, I’m chomping at the bit to get back in there.”

The fight for Cotito will represent a rubber match of sorts with Young’s opponents. In the spring of 2013, Cotito took Ray Wood (8-3) deep into the third round before Wood, then Young’s standout featherweight prospect, was able to finish the fight. Cotito would gain a measure of revenge against the Bangor gym when he submitted Bruce Boyington (14-10) при “NEF X” later that year. Between a pair of recent appearances for global fight promotion Bellator, Cotito scored a second-round submission of Elias Leland (3-2) при “NEF 25” през септември миналата година.

“I’m super excited to fight this kid that they’re all talking about,” exclaimed Cotito. “He has a lot of potential, they keep saying – good, this just makes it more exciting for me! Nobody has seen the real Walter Cotito in the cage yet. Don’t miss this fight because ‘All-Day’ is coming for you!”

New England Fights returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE,” в събота, Април 29, 2017. Tickets are on sale now at the Colisee box office 207-783-2009 х 525 и онлайн на адрес www.TheColisee.com.

Цитати: “I have dreamt about this moment forever. Когато бях 21 and first started kickboxing, I dreamt about being a champion and I didn’t make it, I lost.” Budd said. “Така, this is my dream come true. The moment I signed with Bellator, I saw all the champions up there on the banners and I said to myself that i want to be up there with them some day. Now it feels like everything has come together.”

“Theres only one message that I want to give out to all the fighters out there and that’s please listen to your body. I’m very proud of all the women in MMA and I’m very grateful for Bellator,” Coenen said. “This company picked me up when I was in a dark place and Scott Coker has given me so many opportunities throughout my career. Bellator MMA will always be my home.”

Фернандо Гонзалес (26-14) победен Brandon Girtz (14-6) чрез единодушно решение (29-28, 29-27, 30-26)

 

Цитат: “Everything I thought was going to happen тази вечер, се случи. Every time he was going to go for a take down, I wanted to make him pay for it.” Гонзалес каза. “I had to keep him busy and make him scramble. My plan was to box with him and then keep him away with the leg kicks. I wanted to make him work and get him tired and it proved to be effective in the third round. My next fight, Искам Андрей Koreshkov. He is one of the best and Bellator’s former champion. I think I will win that fight, which will put me right in line with Douglas Lima следващия.”

Джъстин Wren (13-2) победен Roman Pizzolato (8-9) чрез представяне (arm triangle) при 2:35 на първи кръг

 

Цитат: “I’m so grateful for Bellator and Spike to be able to come out here, do what I love and perform. Но, за мен, it’s about so much more than the competition, it’s all about knocking some dude out, so that we can knock out the water crisis with my team out there in the Congo,” Wren said. “They are so incredible. I just train them and put the tools in their hands. They are much better fighters than I ever could be in this cage, so I want to be as good as I can, so that I can give them a voice.”

Рафаел Ловато-младши. (5-0) победен Charles Hackman (4-5) чрез TKO в 0:13 на първи кръг

Bellator is a class company and I’m honored that my last fight will be with them. Scott Coker and Bellator know how to take care of the fighters and I really like what they’ve done with the company.”
