FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (Február 16, 2020) – In his Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) debut, combat sports legend Hector Lombard porazený David Mundell jednomyseľným rozhodnutím (49-46, 48-47, 48-47) Saturday in the headlining event of BKFC 10 live on pay-per-view from the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

In a cruiserweight clash that went the full five rounds, Lombard controlled the majority of the fight, but Mundell used his jab and was able to land a few notable right hands to keep the fight interesting.

“I was aggressive and I scored the points,” said Lombard in victory. “He was backing up the whole time, but my hat off to him. I never thought it was going to be that tough, but he put up a good fight.

“I wanted to be in bare knuckle because I wanted the experience, and now I have it,” continued Lombard. “I’m pretty sure I have to change my game plan and some little things, but it was an amazing experience.”

A frustrated Mundell said, “I kept the distance really well. I played the better boxing game. I understand this is bare knuckle and everybody wants to see us slug it out, and he gave more pressure. I give him props for that, but let’s run it back and see what happens.”

The BKFC 10 co-main event featured Jim Alers porážať Kaleb Harris by majority decision (50-44, 48-46, 47-47) in an all-action 155-pound contest. Alers swarmed Harris from the opening bell, knocking Harris down :30 into the first stanza. Alers then got off to another fast start in round two, using his jab to set up devastating right hands.

V treťom kole, Harris settled in and proved himself a game opponent. Avšak, Alers got right back to his ferocious ways in round four, punishing Harris early and landing numerous clean shots. Alers continued to use his superior striking in the fifth round to close out the decision win.

“Our game plan was to just stay in his face,” said Alers. “He had long range and good power. I wanted to stay close, use my clinch, not get hit by those hooks. He’s a tough (guy) hoci. I hit him with some hard shots and he just kept on coming.

“My Jiu Jitsu helps and comes in handy,” continued Alers. “I’m able to push him around, control his weight, and it definitely plays a part in this game. V MMA, I always wanted to take people down and submit them. Now that I get the chance to just knock people out, I’m hungry for blood. I’m hungry for those knockouts. Next one, I promise you guys a knockout!”

On the pay-per-view undercard, Luis Palomino ovládal Elvin Brito in a 155-pound bout that went the distance. Palomino was able to avoid getting hit and cruised to a wide unanimous decision (49-46, 50-45, 50-45) víťazstvo.

Ulysses Diaz got a quick stoppage victory over Brian Maxwell in a 195-pound contest. Midway through the first round, Diaz landed multiple punches in the clinch as Maxwell grabbed his forehead and fell to the canvas in pain. Maxwell appeared unable to continue and the referee halted the contest 1:13 into round one.

Dat Nguyen squared off against Abdiel Velazquez in an extremely spirited 135-pound fight. It was a furious pace from the opening bell, Nguyen landing first and dropping Velazquez. Velazquez continued to force the fast action and he caught Nguyen, dropping Nguyen to the mat for the first time in his professional combat sports career. As the fighters settled into the later stages of the first round, Nguyen landed a huge left that knocked Velazquez out cold. The referee immediately waved off the fight 1:51 into round one.

Gustavo Trujillo porazený Lorenzo Hunt by technical knockout in the first round of their 205-pound scrap. As Hunt lunged forward to throw a punch, Trujillo landed a powerful, short right hand of his own, send Hunt crashing to the canvas face-first. Hunt made it back to his feet, but the referee had seen enough, calling a stop to the action just 1:01 into the first frame.

Francesco Ricchi Zastavil Fred Pierce in the first round of their 175-pound contest. An extremely reckless Pierce got caught and dropped early by Ricchi. Pierce elected to get up and fight on, but continued his wild ways, got stunned again and then stopped on his feet at the 1:38 mark of round one.

In the opening pay-per-view bout, Travis Thompson secured a second-round stoppage victory over Joshua Boudreaux in their 135-pound fight. Thompson focused on the body and dropped Boudreaux twice, once in the first round and again in the second round, on his way to a technical knockout at the :15 Značka druhého kola.

zmiešaná bojové umenia, UFC

UFC a PEDS: Kam pôjdeme odtiaľ?

Zanechať komentár


Photo Credit: Esther Lin / MMA Fighting

Zvyčajne, keď som sa spýtať na túto otázku, je to v dôsledku cieľom pay-per-a ja som premýšľal nahlas na to, čo bude ďalej pre bojovníkmi, ktorí pretekali na ňom. Tentoraz okolo, Hovorím o niečom, čo má vplyv na všetky zmiešané bojových umení v Ultimate Fighting Championship.

UFC oznámil tento týždeň že bude vykonávať oveľa prísnejšie, oveľa komplexnejšie testovanie na drogy v dôsledku bojovníkov, ako je Anderson Silva a Hector Lombard rútiace sa testy na drogy zvyšujúce výkonnosť (PEDS), zatiaľ čo Jon Jones a Nick Diaz neúspešné testy na kokaín a marihuanu, príslušne.

Zvýšeného testovanie drog a tvrdšie tresty môže pomôcť len UFC, a zmiešaných bojových umení všeobecne. Ale to, čo priniesol na toto zvýšenie neúspešných testoch? PEDS boli súčasťou športových dlho predtým, než MMA bojovníci začali ich prijatie, a oni boli problém v MMA pred minulý mesiac-and-a-pol.

Ale viac bojovníci sa zdajú byť pristihnutí. Ako vo väčšine športov, existuje obrovské množstvo tlak na výkonnosť v MMA a UFC. Ak neurobíte, ste v podstate nemusíte dostať zaplatené. Zvýšený dopyt po programovanie UFC na základe svojej dohody s FOX môže byť tiež faktorom. Išli z bytia na Spike TV – kde sa len vysielajú "Ultimate Fighter" raz za rok a dva alebo tri živé bojové karty ročne – prakticky má dve živé bojové karty mesiac a vetranie "Ultimate Fighter" dvakrát ročne na FOX kanáloch.

Zvýšenie programovanie znamená potrebu ďalších subjektov na vyplnenie, že programovanie. To tiež znamená, že viac bojovníci sú školenia pre viac zápasov, čo môže viesť k viac zranenia. PEDS, Okrem toho, že vám konkurenčnú výhodu nad súpermi, vám umožní rýchlejšie zotaviť zo zranenia. S potrebou pre viac bojovníkov k vyplneniu ďalšie bojové karty, Myslím si, že je možné, že zrejmý nárast neúspešných testov na drogy môžu byť aspoň čiastočne pripísať, že.

Zvýšené protidrogovej testovanie opatrení UFC sa prejaví až júl 1. Čo môžeme očakávať, akonáhle to robí? Tu sú niektoré z hlavných smerov UFC predložila.

Dokonca aj CEO UFC Lorenzo Fertitta priznal v priebehu tohto týždňa na tlačovej konferencii, že veci "by ešte horšie, než aby lepšie" s novým testovaním. Viac, to sa ešte len uvidí, ako moc to bude skutočne držať jednou júla 1 valí okolo. UFC predtým považované pred rozširovaním svojej drogovej testovanie úsilie, ale stiahol späť, citovať náklady a skôr nepodarenej pokus o tom.

Avšak, s vyrážkou vysoko postavených hviezdy ako Silva, Jones a Diaz zlyhávajúcich testy, náklady nemožno považovať za prekážkou a UFC musia byť ostražití. Prechádzanie môj Twitter feed po tlačovej konferencii, to bolo prízračne tichý. Takmer žiadne bojovníci zváži, spočiatku. Je pravdepodobné, že bol len vedľajší produkt tlačovej konferencie sa koná v stredu popoludní, keď väčšina ľudí pracujú alebo pravdepodobne majú iné veci na práci okrem príspevku na Twitteri. Ale to bolo ešte celkom výrečné. Zdá sa, že takto sa chytil pozornosť bojovníkov, ako by mal.

Čo si myslím, že sa stane? Tam bude zvýšenie neúspešného testu, akonáhle nové opatrenia nadobudnú platnosť júla 1, Som si celkom istý,. Ale vzhľadom k tomu, že UFC podporuje tvrdé postihy pre tých, ktorí zlyhajú – vrátane zákazu až na štyri roky – Očakávam, že špinavé bojovníkmi, aby nakoniec cyklus seba von a tí, ktorí súťažia v čistote (čo je väčšina z nich, pravdepodobne) zaujať významnejšiu úlohu.

Zvýšená testovanie na drogy, je už dávno v UFC. Šport zmiešaných bojových umení samo o sebe je stále ešte v plienkach, najmä v porovnaní s inými športy, ako je futbal, basketbal a baseball. Ale rovnako ako baseball sa stále zotavuje zo svojej vlastnej krízy s PEDS, Tieto nedávne neúspešné testy na drogy otriasli základy UFC a majú harkened späť do doby, kedy to bolo len "ľudský kohútie zápasy."

UFC prijal slogan "Time Is Now" pre 2015, a ja som nemohol súhlasiť viac. Čas je teraz pre nich, aby sa vedenie v čistení šport zmiešaných bojových umení.

Chris Huntemann píše o zmiešaných bojových umení v štáte Maryland. On tiež sa podelia o svoje myšlienky na UFC, Bellator, a World Series of Fighting. Pozrite sa na jeho blog, alebo sledovať ho na Twitteri: mmamaryland.
