FNU搏擊運動展: UFC 214 分解, Nobody Likes Dana White, Tom and Tony break down Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. 馬里亞加

發表評論

This week’s combat sports show is a split personality situation. We had technical difficulties getting all of us together for the show, so we recorded Tom and Tony chatting with each other on Thursday night. I’ve added my portion today. It all worked out to some incredible insight about Mayweather vs. 麥格雷戈, Dana White’s growing problem with disgruntled stars in the UFC, Broner VS. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. 馬里亞加. We also break down Jon Jones beating Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 and the implications for a Brock Lesnar showdown in the Octagon. It’s far from likely, but it’s intriguing. We also touch on the retirements of Juan Manuel Marquez and Wladimir Klitschko.

UFC and PEDs: Where do we go from here?

發表評論


圖片來源: Esther Lin/MMA Fighting

Usually when I ask that question, it’s in the wake of a pay-per-view and I’m wondering aloud at what’s next for the fighters who competed on it. 這陣子, I’m talking about something that affects ALL mixed martial artists in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

The UFC announced this week that it will implement far stricter, far more comprehensive drug testing in the wake of fighters like 安德森·席爾瓦 和 赫克托隆巴德 failing tests for performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), 而 Jon Jones 和 Nick Diaz failed tests for cocaine and marijuana, 分別.

Increased drug testing and harsher penalties can only help the UFC, and mixed martial arts in general. But what brought on this increase in failed tests? PEDs have been a part of sports long before MMA fighters started taking them, and they have been a problem in MMA prior to the last month-and-a-half.

But more fighters seem to be getting caught. As in most sports, there is a tremendous amount of pressure to perform in MMA and in the UFC. If you don’t perform, you basically don’t get paid. The increased demand for UFC programming by virtue of its deal with FOX could also be a factor. They went from being on Spike TV – where they only broadcast “The Ultimate Fighter” once a year and two or three live fight cards annually – to practically having two live fight cards a month and airing “The Ultimate Fighter” twice a year on the FOX channels.

The increase in programming means a need of more bodies to fill that programming. It also means that more fighters are training for more fights, which can lead to more injuries. PEDs, in addition to giving you a competitive advantage over your opponent, allow you to recover from injuries more quickly. With the need for more fighters to fill more fight cards, I think it’s possible the apparent increase in failed drug tests can at least be partly attributed to that.

The UFC’s increased drug-testing measures take effect July 1. What can we expect once it does? Here are some of the guidelines the UFC presented.

Even UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta admitted during this week’s press conference that things “would get worse before they better” with the new testing. 更多, it remains to be seen how much of this will actually stick once July 1 rolls around. UFC previously considered expanding its drug-testing efforts before but pulled back, citing cost and a previously botched attempt at doing so.

然而, with the rash of high-profile stars like Silva, Jones and Diaz failing tests, cost can’t be considered a hindrance and the UFC must be vigilant. Browsing my Twitter feed following the press conference, it was eerily quiet. Almost no fighters weighed in initially. It is likely that was just a byproduct of the press conference taking place on a Wednesday afternoon, when most people are working or presumably have other things to do besides post on Twitter. But it was still pretty telling. It seems like this has grabbed fighters’ attention, as it should.

What do I think will happen? There will be an increase in failed test once the new measures take effect July 1, I’m fairly confident. But given that the UFC is supporting harsh penalties for those who do fail – including a ban of up to four years – I expect the dirty fighters to eventually cycle themselves out and the ones who compete clean (which is most of them, presumably) to take a more prominent role.

Increased drug testing is long overdue in the UFC. The sport of mixed martial arts itself is still in its infancy, especially compared to other sports like football, basketball and baseball. But just like baseball is still recovering from its own crisis with PEDs, these recent failed drug tests have shaken the foundation of the UFC and have harkened back to the days when it was referred to as “human cockfighting.”

UFC adopted the slogan “The Time Is Now” for 2015, and I couldn’t agree more. The time is now for them to take the lead in cleaning up the sport of mixed martial arts.

UFC搏擊之夜: The Swedish Are Coming!

發表評論

In a land once popularized in a Tom Green (remember him?) 歌曲 – “Lonely Swedish (The Bum Bum Song)” – the Ultimate Fighting Championship brings a Fight Night card that will hopefully bring more attention than a song about a Canadian’s ass.

The first FOX card of the new year, UFC搏擊之夜: 瑞典, brings the national stage of FOX overseas and gives America a glimpse into the UFC’s ongoing overseas expansion. But unlike previous UFC overseas cards, this one is not short on star power. Let’s see if a clear-cut no. 1 contender for Jon Jones’ light heavyweight title will emerge.

Akira Corassani (16-4-1) VS. 山姆西西里 (13-5) (Featherweight – 145 磅。)

This is a matchup of The Ultimate Fighter alumni, with both guys coming off losses and Corassani coming off back-to-back losses to Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier. Corassani’s also been finished early in both fights, while Sicilia is coming off a submission loss. In a crowded featherweight division, a knockout or submission victory would go a long way toward boosting either of these gentlemen’s stock. I like Sicilia to finish Corassani and possibly give him his walking papers after three straight losses.

優勝者: Sicilia by second-round TKO

Phil “Mr. Wonderful” Davis (13-2) VS. Ryan “Darth” Bader (19-4) (Light Heavyweight – 205 磅。)

Both of these guys are poised for another run at the top of the light heavyweight division. Both of these guys are coming off victories and actually faced each other in college when Davis wrestled for Penn State and Bader wrestled for Arizona State. Davis uses his wrestling to smother opponents and grind out unanimous decision victories, while Bader uses his wrestling when necessary but also has lethal knockout power.

I expect Davis to try and get this fight to the ground early, and if he succeeds I think he can use his reach advantage and athleticism to keep Bader down. Bader must keep this fight standing to have a chance, and I think he will avoid the temptation to avenge his college loss to Davis by engaging in another wrestling match. I like Bader to land more shots and score an upset victory.

優勝者: Bader by unanimous decision

Dan “Hendo” Henderson (30-12) VS. Gegard Mousasi (35-5-2) (Middleweight – 185 磅。)

Henderson returns to middleweight after a mostly ill-fated run at light heavyweight, including being tossed around like a rag doll and submitted by Daniel Cormier in his last fight. Simply put, if Henderson can’t land his patented “H-Bomb” right hand for a knockout, he’s easily susceptible to defeat.

I think the wars of years past are finally catching up to Henderson. He will go down as one of the greatest fighters ever not to hold a UFC title, but he simply can’t keep up with the sport’s elite any more. He will leave himself open when wanting to drop the H-Bomb, and Mousasi will take advantage.

優勝者: Mousasi by third-round submission

Alexander “The Mauler” Gustafsson (16-2) VS. 安東尼“隆隆聲”約翰遜 (18-4) (Light Heavyweight – 205 磅。)

The winner of this fight will receive the next shot at light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, and it would represent a rematch for Gustafsson. He took Jones closer to defeat than anyone else has during their epic 2013 配對. Depending on who ask, some people think the Swede actually won that fight.

Johnson is rapidly ascending the 205-pound ladder after knocking out Antonio Rogerio Nogueira and scoring an upset win over Phil Davis to begin his climb. Johnson also has devastating knockout power and if he lands one such shot on Gustafsson, the Swede’s road to redemption is derailed. But I think Gustafsson uses his reach advantage (which is nearly identical to Jones) to keep Johnson at bay and make Johnson go a full five rounds.

Gustafsson’s striking in the 205-pound division is second to none, and I like him to land enough of those to secure a rematch with Jones later this year.

優勝者: Gustafsson by unanimous decision

喬恩·瓊斯被罰使用可卡因, 但UFC輕重量級冠軍​​似乎仍然在可卡因醜聞有愈演愈烈之特殊待遇

發表評論

已更新 1/19/2015 有完整的採訪視頻:

由: 豐富的伯杰龍

對於混合武術愛好者通過喬恩·瓊斯周圍的鉤住他的可卡因醜聞的爭議和意外考驗著迷, “面試” 不 喜劇主演詹姆斯·弗蘭科和塞斯羅根.

上述片段顯示了完整的福克斯體育的幾個片段 1 周圍12月4日的結果坐下來會 “出於競爭” 測試了世界上大多數MMA球迷現在都太熟悉了. 對於那些在不同的星球沒有聽到這個消息誰, 測試顯示，瓊斯得到可卡因代謝產物在他的系統.

今晚, 瓊斯出現在期待已久的 “來到耶穌” 時刻在鏡頭前, 而是芭芭拉·沃爾特斯的問題, 這是 Charissa湯普森. The Jones Interview is slated for an 11PM EST time slot, 不久之後所有的小的孩子誰仰望他上床. 對於什麼會覆蓋更多詳細信息, 查看 該預覽推出福克斯提前.

它並沒有用很長時間後，正面測試報告浮出水面的疤面煞星笑話 , 模因模仿開始流通. Though the situation is far from funny to many folks who are truly disgusted by these developments, it’s really hard not to laugh at some of the stuff 整個Twitterverse貼滿 about Jones. 更糟糕的是 報導說，UFC輕重量級冠軍​​只花了 24 小時康復, 但人們在Twitter上再次找到一些方法來取笑的發展，:

一個有前途的發展出來的整個情況是，UFC最終加強和徵收瓊斯一些有限的懲罰. 雖然看似每天晚，幾千元的短, 促進擊中了他們的海報男孩與一個 $25,000 精發表以下聲明:

內華達州運動委員會上月進行的一個徹頭徹尾的競爭藥物測試期間“瓊斯測試正面為可卡因. 4, 2014. 該 $25,000 將捐贈給藥物濫用預防方案.

在UFC來到這個決定審查圍繞這一問題的事實後，, 和接收確認從內華達州運動委員會，瓊斯通過了所有必需的藥物測試後，他的回合後，UFC 182 上月. 3.”

難道UFC只記得他們的行為準則，他們要求所有的簽約運動員跟隨? 這是一個公平的問題, 但複雜的問題是，內華達州運動委員會在技術上通過甚至遭受瓊斯的東西一個測試，實際上並不禁止一個徹頭徹尾的競爭環境，超越自己的邊界. The UFC’s legal bigwigs had to take a step back and figure out how to defend whatever punishment Jones would face in light of the test.

違規行為的代碼看起來像一個打開和關閉的情況下，以多數專家, 但作出處罰成本太高可能會向瓊斯的途徑爭議罰款. 所有他需要做的就是呼籲人們關注的體育委員會指的是測試本身作為一個 “行政監督。” 做精成捐贈似乎是一個偉大的方式來防止瓊斯任何法律挑戰.

還, 其中本次發行方，無論你是在, 整個事件由意味對瓊斯的UFC顯示不健康的偏袒. 這很容易想像，一個人誰打架的UFC的初步卡得到立即拋出的組織，如果陷入了同樣的情況. 但, 瓊斯拍打在手腕上以最小的罰款，並給予字面上高度評價面臨的問題，就像冠軍，他是. He even gets to go on national television and explain why he “搞砸了。”

儘管大多數情況下涉及UFC戰士誰在最近幾年呈陽性鍋就參與競爭的測試完全不同的場景, 達納白不出來任何這些實例談論那些戰士多麼需要幫助. 他沒有排隊任何採訪任何這些戰士與一家大型網絡UFC有一個多億美元的廣播處理.

有些瓊斯的球迷可能會認為大多數的更嚴厲的懲罰拋出大麻使用者進行了累犯案件. 誠然, 這是瓊斯初犯，當涉及到毒品測試. 但, 我們也不能忽視的事實是，他 包裹著他周圍的賓利電線桿, 賺取DUI, 幾千元的罰款和處罰 (含 $7,000 更換極點) 和六個月的司機，他在五月的清晨行動停牌 19, 2012. 有由UFC的崩潰沒有正式處罰. 他被允許捍衛同年他的頭銜九月.

很難想像，即使在其他任何運動最好的運動員通過他們的老闆得到相同的待遇. 考慮馬拉多納的情況下，, arguably the best soccer player ever. 他從體育的暫停 15 個月 1991 失敗是由於可卡因藥物測試後，. 早在 2007, 辛吉斯藥檢呈陽性瓊斯發現了同樣的代謝產物, 但她的水平確實低於美國軍方的藥物篩選協議的可接受水平. 國際網球聯合會還暫停了兩年. 這是兩個體育項目的明確目標就是不要去傷害你的對手，才能贏得. MMA的是一個不同的動物, 甚至在訓練的戰士們經常會受到傷害.

即使 “出於競爭” 不包括官方鬥爭的特殊混合武術家支付的競爭, 這是一個時期，大量的對打可能發生. 雖然很少有人會認為可卡因是一種性能增強藥物, 還有一個原因短語 “跳上可卡因” is so common. 如果喬恩·瓊斯是藥物的影響下，在任何培訓課程，其中發生陪練, 他可以把自己和/或他的陪練夥伴嚴重的危險. Not to mention the damage a long-term cocaine habit can do to a person. 雖然他堅持說，他不是一個癮君子, 這是誰的人有嚴重的毒品問題的普遍感覺.

很多時候, 人們喜歡瓊斯的位置就不能處理的名氣和關注自帶的明星. 然後，他們轉向的合法和非法多種頭腦麻木的物質. 這很容易理解為什麼瓊斯是有這些問題，, 但在同一時間，它是更有必要拒絕給他這樣一個簡單的方法.

甚至比普通人誰最終與藥物試驗, 有人喜歡瓊斯均可以很容易有一個真正的壞習慣, 他完全有理由從大眾隱藏. 這意味著，上癮的標誌–使用單獨的時–可以令人信服地由瓊斯的長時間暗.

提供了最低限度的懲罰, 像個它不是一個嚴重的問題, 並讓他去備案，正式否認他與可卡因的任何問題可能是極為不利他的恢復. 這是尤其如此，如果他確實確實有一個嚴重的問題，他是非常努力地試圖避免承認.

這整個場景的最糟糕的部分, 雖然, 是啟示發出的信息是沒有硬性規定禁止使用可卡因出賽, 至少就為內華達州運動委員會而言. 我懷疑很多混合武術藝術家或拳手知道這一事件作了頭條新聞之前，. 現在，他們做的, 並可能創建一個非常嚴重的問題.

戰士往往來自惡劣的背景, 而不是延續，只有通向監獄的行為, 他們把戰鬥毒品和犯罪逃脫. 這一事件使得它清楚誰可能拒絕涉足可卡因，在過去，他（或她）現在可以逃脫一時興起做每個戰士, 一次或兩次, 或者只要他們不打架. 有多少，這些戰機將右後衛跳進那個老的生活方式，一旦他們到達懸崖邊?

多少人的生命可能被摧毀, 有多少作用車型將公開為詐騙, 多少職業將永久出軌，因為戰士現在都知道，毫無疑問，他們可以做各種非法毒品，只要它不是在那個小檢測 “競爭” 窗口? 我們永遠不會知道, 因為它代表我們無法知道. 我們不應該知道. 這樣的災難永遠撐隱藏, 這就是藥物使用和濫用潰爛，並變得更猖獗，危害用戶以及他或她的身邊.

無論瓊斯上癮與否無所謂. 事實是, 他做了一個不錯的選擇無數的戰士可以使要是擱在相同的位置. Sometimes it just takes one poor decision to start a downward spiral that only ends in tragedy. 區別對待這傢伙只是因為他可以在籠子裡獲取和扔下的最佳在他的分裂是一個災難.

即使是從體育六個月的暫停, 更多的東西應該​​由UFC進行發送一個不同的，更重要的信息. 在UFC需要他們的戰士就知道這是不是OK, 絕不姑息, 而不應被任何人在他們的花名冊重複. 該公司並不需要他們的戰士認為上級的名氣和地位，他們在這項運動中賺得意味著更令人不安的行為，他們可以逃脫.

這整個想法，明星或體育實力等同於特殊待遇是每年正是給NFL那麼多的麻煩，並把這麼多的名人在早期的墳墓. 戰士都應該舉行一個更高的標準, 並派出最好的消息是一個表明它是最好避免飲酒都和令人不安的行為，如果你想成為成功的格鬥運動. 意外和錯誤發生的最好的人誰擁有最強的角色, 但這些微小的蒼蠅說成大象時，任其發展可以成為山脈.

我真的想看到UFC硬著頭皮把像世界反興奮劑機構的組織做的那種任意藥物測試，他們曾經承諾，他們將受到他們的名冊的所有戰機. 該測試應包括抽查非法街頭毒品除的PED. 如果公司真的黃銅關心更多的戰士比自己的財務底線, 他們想知道有多少僱員沒有問題，只是需要 “救命。”
