“Duševné” Tom Padgett earned his nickname last week in predicting Mark Hunt would be buoyed to a win over Derrick Lewis in front of his hometown New Zealand fans at the latest UFC Fight Night. We recap the fight card and preview this weekend’s UFC Fight Night card from Singapore. Tomáš, Tony and Rich also chat about Mayweather vs. McGregor getting signed. We additionally recap last week’s biggest boxing results and the upcoming weekend’s best fights, including a rematch of Andre Ward vs. Sergey Kovalev. Listen to the two part broadcast below.
Rich Bergeron opens this week’s FNU Combat Sports show by giving his unique take on the Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson feud with the UFC brass, namely Dana White. Upon refusing to take a fight with T.J. Dillashaw without getting certain assurances and conditions met, many fans on social media insisted DJ was running scared. Even Dillashaw took the opportunity to blast the move by the flyweight champ as “chickenshit.” Dana White even reportedly threatened to shut down the entire flyweight division if Johnson refused to fight TJ. “Mighty Mouse” didn’t blink and didn’t cave to the organization’s demands, and Rich explains in his opening dialogue why DJ should be respected and given the benefit of the doubt for his decision rather than being criticized and dragged through the mud for standing up for himself.
During the rest of the broadcast, Tony “Tornado” Penecale details his night out at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia for a fight card headlined by Hank Lundy. He also recaps Fonfara vs. Stevenson II and calls the fight “a disgrace.”
“Duševné” Tom Padgett chips in with some post-fight analysis of Aldo vs. Holloway. He also predicts Mark Hunt will benefit from home cage advantage in his battle with Derrick Lewis this weekend at UFC Fight Night 110 in New Zealand.
There’s also an update on Hunt’s lawsuit against the UFC and Brock Lesnar and lots of other fight previews and recaps. Listen to the whole broadcast to catch up on what’s new in combat sports this week.
Tony Penecale (ľavý) a Lou Duva (doprava) v Brocktone, Zasvätenie sochy Rockyho Marciana v Massachusetts.
Naša show bola tento týždeň venovaná Lou Duve (vpravo hore s naším spoluhostiteľom Tony Penecale). Lou zomrela začiatkom tohto týždňa v zrelom veku 1994. Bol veľkým priateľom Rockyho Marciana, propagátor 19 majstri sveta, a muž, ktorý mal všetky svoje želiezka v jednom ohni, ktorý zapálil jeho život: box. Propagátor/tréner/manažér/legenda sa objavil v šou FNU Combat Sports pred rokmi, ale bohužiaľ, zvuk je zrnitý a fľakatý. Ak pozorne počúvate drahokamy, ktoré obsahuje naša diskusia, prevažujú nad ťažko počúvateľnými miestami.
Uverejňujem tu aj niekoľko konkrétnych remastrovaných klipov:
Tomáš, Tony a Rich tiež zrekapitulovali Garcia vs.. Thurman, Najnovšie na Mayweather vs.. McGregor, UFC 209 a s tým spojenými mnohými kontroverziami, GSP’s dark warning about weight cutting, and Tony Bellew’s shocking upset of David Haye.
Tomáš, Tony a Rich trávia tohtotýždňovú šou dobývaním hlavných noviniek v bojovom športe. Ukážeme si tiež ukážku nadchádzajúcich bojov v boxe a MMA. Zdôrazňujeme nedávny súdny spor Marka Hunta z boja, v ktorom mal Brock Lesnar pozitívne testy na PED, a diskutujeme o hodnotení Travis Browne ako “Muž kurva.” Vypočujte si hodinové vysielanie nižšie.
