One of the most dominant competitors on the World Series of Fighting roster whose fearless, go-for-broke style has captured the hearts of fans worldwide, the 27-year-old Gaethje (14-0) de SAFFORD, Ariz. is coming off the third defense of his coveted title in which he scored an explosive, an dara babhta (4:30) WHO (punches) of rival Luis "baboon" Palomino in a rematch between the two prolific stars, Meán Fómhair 18.

Six months prior, Gaethje and Palomino engaged in an epic, see-saw slugfest that saw Gaethje emerge victorious by way of TKO (thosaíonn cos agus punches) sa tríú babhta (3:57) that has since been nominated for “Fight of the Year” at the eighth annual Fighters Only World MMA Awards ceremony that takes place on February 5.

After suffering an chéad bhabhta (1:46) aighneacht (Hook sÚil) defeat to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ace Joao Zeferino, Foster experienced a stroke of luck, advancing to the tournament’s semifinal stage of competition in place of an injured competitor, and capitalized on the opportunity by defeating Palomino via second round (4:19) WHO (punches) and Zeferino via second round (4:51) KO (punches) i a championship stage rematch, to claim first prize and a shot at Gaethje’s title.

A 10-year veteran of the sport, Foster has produced notable victories over Brock Larson, Forrest Petz and world top 10 ranked welterweight (170 punt) superstar Matt Brown, whom Foster conquered by way of second round (2:11) aighneacht (choke gilitín) ar Samhain 20, 2010.

Additional WSOF29 bouts will be announced soon.

Leave a comment

 

RAPHAEL BUTLER-TONY JOHNSON SET TO CLASH ON MAIN CARD

ILIMA MACFARLANE-AMBER TACKETT ANCHOR ‘BELLATOR 148: DALEY VS. UHRICH’ PRELIMINARY CARD

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (Eanáir 6, 2015) – An injury sustained by Josh Koscheck (17-10) during training camp has derailed his Bellator MMA debut against Matt Secor (7-2), which was slated to be the main event of “Bellator 148” ar Eanáir 29 ag Sábháil Mart Ionad i Fresno, Calif.

 

Mar thoradh air sin, British knockout artist Paul "Semtex" Daley (37-13-2) aghaidh Andy Uhrich (11-5) will now serve as the headliner. Ina theannta sin, a newly announced heavyweight encounter featuring Raphael Butler (9-1) aghaidh Tony Johnson (9-2) has been added to the main card.

 

An "Bellator 148: Daley vs. Uhrich” preliminary card is also continuing to take shape, with the news that Ilima Macfarlane (2-0) Buaileann Amber Tackett(1-1) in flyweight action during a preliminary card that will stream LIVE on Bellator.com.

 

In addition to the aforementioned contests, Saor cloiche Fowler (2-0) Buaileann Idrees Wasi (1-3) i ngníomh welterweight, Mark Dickman (10-2) Bíonn ar Thomas Diagne (5-5-1) at 145-pounds, agus Paul Ruiz (6-2) troideanna Josh San Diego (5-1) in a bantamweight feature bout.

Macfarlane made a splash during her Bellator MMA debut back in August; defeating a game Maria Rios via cinneadh scoilt. The San Diego native is best known for her finish of Katie Castro during a regional event in the beginning of 2015, but she has made it clear during numerous interviews, as well as her performance inside the cage that she’s more than just some viral sensation. For a deeper dive on Macfarlane, look no further than these two pieces written by Bleacher Tuarascáil agus ESPN. Standing opposite of Macfarlane will be Tackett, who lives a short jaunt away from Save Mart Center in Fresno, Calif., and has fought twice professionally since 2008.

 

2015 didn’t go as planned for Raphael Butler. The former professional boxer was forced to sit idle after Lorenzo Hood withdrew from their scheduled bout at “Bellator 141: Guillard vs. Girt” shortly before they were supposed to enter the cage. But now it’s 2016, and the 31-year-old has big plans, beginning with his “Bellator 148: Koscheck vs. Secor” foe, Tony Johnson. Fresh off a victory against former Bellator MMA Heavyweight Champion Alexander Volkov, Johnson will once again look to implore his standout wrestling pedigree against a known striker to secure another victory.

An cárta is mó de RFA 34 will also include a pair of RFA and Colorado fan favorites in the light-heavyweight division. Cody Mumma (8-2) is currently riding the momentum of three consecutive KO victories. That streak started with a scintillating 11-second KO of Colton Vaughn at RFA 20. The KO is tied for the second-fastest KO in RFA history.
Mumma will face fellow RFA vet Jeremy Kimball (11-5), who will be entering this contest fresh off a lightning fast KO victory of his own. That win came over Jason Clayton in just 22 seconds last summer. Mar sin féin, Kimball’s most high-profile win to date came in the co-main event of RFA 7, when he submitted Chidi Njokuani via Rear Naked Choke.
In the bantamweight division, six-time UFC vet Hugo “Wolverine” Viana (8-3) and two-time RFA vet Zac “The Anointed Warrior” Riley (3-3) will share the RFA Octagon together. Viana burst on to the global MMA scene in 2012 as a semi-finalist on the first season of the UFC reality show TUF – Bhrasaíl. He then won his first two UFC bouts before losing to current UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw, who is now one of his teammates.
Riley will be entering this bout with a large amount of praise and fanfare in his own right. This past October at RFA 31, Riley made headlines after accepting a bout in Las Vegas with undefeated Hawaiian prospect Shai Lindsey on just 48 uair an chloig’ Fógra. The highly-touted Lindsey, who had finished all of his opponents, was blitzed at the opening bell by southern Colorado’s newest star. Riley ended up finishing the fight in just 59 seconds with an airtight Triangle Choke.
At welterweight, Brian Camozzi (4-2) will make his long-awaited RFA debut. Camozzi is the younger brother of UFC star Chris Camozzi and fights out of Factory X Muay Thai in the greater Denver, Colorado area. He will face Tyler Milner (7-2) who is a longtime standout in the Alaska FC promotion. Milner now trains at Jackson-Wink MMA in Albuquerque, New Mexico and will be fighting for the first time in his career outside of Alaska.
An cárta is mó de RFA 34 will get started in the featherweight division with a pair of featherweight prospects eager to make their national television debut. Cory Sandhagen (1-0) will be making his promotional debut after enjoying a decorated amateur career. He is a main training partner of UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw at Elevation Fight Team in Denver, Colorado. Sandhagen will face undefeated Jackson-Wink MMA standout Andrew Tenneson (3-0) in a bout that is sure to get RFA commentators Pat Miletich and Michael Schiavello excited from the start. Tennesson, like his opponent Sandhagen, is a finisher as both men have finished all of their opponents before the final bell.
An RFA iomlán 34 Beidh réamh-cárta agus tuilleadh eolais i dtaobh an ócáid ​​seo a fhógairt go luath. RFA 34 Beidh an cur chun cinn ar seachtú ócáid ​​ar siúl i staid na Colorado.
