|
| ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Sausis 5, 2017) – Karšto pusvidutinio svorio perspektyva Sergejus “Gatvės kovotojas” Romanovas sunkiai treniruojasi, kad sugadintų Rusijos veterano sugrįžimą Magomed “Baltas Vilkas” Sultanakhmedov įdomiame mače Kovas 3 ne M-1 Challenge 75 Rusijoje.
The M-1 Iššūkis 75 Pagrindinis įvykis, featuring mūšis nenugalėtas pusvidutinio svorio tarp titulą Aleksejus Kunchenko (15-0-0, M-1: 7-0-0), Rusijos, priima Kazachstano varžovą Shaukat Rakhmonov (7-0-0, M-1: 4-0-0),buvo paskelbta anksčiau.
M-1 Iššūkis 75 bus tiesiogiai transliuojamas iš Maskvos aukštos raiškos www.M1Global.TV. Stebėtojai galės žiūrėti preliminarius kovoja ir pagrindinę plokštę prisijungdami prie užsiregistruoti www.M1Global.TV. Ventiliatoriai gali stebėti visus veiksmus savo kompiuteriuose, taip pat "Android" ir "Apple" išmaniųjų telefonų ir tabletes.
Dėl daugybės sužalojimų, Sulktanakhmedovas (18-5-0, M-1: 10-1-0) pastaruosius penkerius metus buvo neaktyvus, nes jis antrame jų raunde nokautavo Tysoną Jeffriesą 2011 kovoti ne M-1 Challenge 24.
Buvęs M-1 atrankos čempionas, Sultanakhmedovas numeta vieną svorio kategoriją nuo vidutinio svorio iki kovos su Romanovu. Per savo MMA karjerą, bijojo puolėjas Sultanakhmedovas išmušė panašius Dmitrijus Samoilovas, Viktoras Nemkovas, Pavelas Kušas ir Pliinio Cruz, Tarp labiau Aristokratija.
Jo nepaprasta nuojauta ir stilius daro jį gerbėjų mėgstamiausiu, ypač jo “vienas suvis, vieno žudymo” ataka. 32 metų vyras kovojo už savo gimtosios Rusijos ribų, JAV ir Japonijoje, ir kovos pertraukos metu jis ėjo teisėjo pareigas.
Nors jis nežiūri pro Sultanakhmedovą, kolega rusų kovotojas Romanovas tikisi, kad įspūdinga pergalė prieš Sultanhmedovą jam suteiks pirmąjį „M-1 iššūkio“ titulo smūgį prieš „Kunchenkp-Rakhmonov“ nugalėtoją.
Romanovas iškovojo įspūdingas pergales „M-1 Challenge“ varžybose, įskaitant sprendimą prieš Brazilijos priešą Carlosas Pereira pernai spalio mėn M-1 Iššūkis 71, taip pat pirmojo rato sustojimas per smūgius iš Andreas Birgels praėjusį birželį, val M-1 Iššūkis 68.
“Aš dirbau su savo jėgomis,” Romanovas sakė iš savo treniruočių stovyklos, “nes mano svorio kategorijos čempionas, Aleksejus Kunchenko, yra fiziškai stiprus. Man reikia pasivyti. Ne todėl, kad laukiu kovos dėl titulo, bet aš visada turiu grandiozinių planų, taip, ziuresim kaip cia bus. Dabar, Aš sutelkiau dėmesį į Sultanakhmedovą, ir manau, kad mano kova su juo būtų ne sunkesnė nei galima kova su Kunčenko.
“Treniruočių stovyklą pradėjau nuo dviejų treniruočių per dieną, bet pasijutau blogai ir nusprendžiau sumažinti tik vieną treniruotę per dieną, kol netrukus grįšiu į pilną režimą. Aš treniravausi namuose (St. Peterburgas) bet netrukus vyks į Riazanę į imtynių treniruočių stovyklą. Tada, Grįšiu į šv. Sankt Peterburge pasiruošti stovyklai, ir eikite į Borovaja boksuotis. Mano priešininkas yra kairiarankis, todėl man reikia tinkamų partnerių, bet mano stovyklos vaikinai labai padeda.
“Aš gerai pažįstu savo priešininką, kuris stebėjo jo kovas kaip jaunas, kai jis buvo čempionas. Dabar, turime jį iš naujo įvertinti. Jis buvo geras kovotojas, kuris treniruojasi „Gorets“’ kur yra, iš esmės, vaikinai, kurie yra aukščiausio lygio. Sunku pasakyti, kokia jo forma dabar, nes jis taip ilgai nekovojo. Dabar, jis yra didžiausias kovotojo amžius, 32, taigi pamatysime. Nemanau, kad šioje kovoje būsiu palankus, bet aš eisiu į priekį, nepaisant to, kad esu nepakankamas.”
 Romanovas (R) yra tvirtas universalus MMA kovotojas

Klausimas: For Paul Daley…We had a chance to talk before you were schedule to fight Derek Anderson at ‘Bellator 163.’ He made the weight, but the fight didn’t happen. Taip, what’s going to change this time? Are you going to do anything different in your preparation and what do you expect from Brennan Ward?
Paulius Daley: Things didn’t go according to plan at the last event that I was scheduled to compete in. I made the weight, but it was what happened after that was the problem. Those problems have been ironed out and we should have everything back on track and I’m ready to compete in what is going to be the most exciting fight on the card.
Klausimas: For Brennan Ward…Both of you have definitely delivered exciting knockouts in recent performances, so I want to know what your expectation of the fight is and if you think it will be a quick showcase.
Brennanas Ward: They don’t just line two guys up like Paul and I for no reason — on a card like this, that is probably the biggest card of the year and one of the biggest Bellator cards of all-time == They’re putting our matchup on there for a reason. They know fireworks are going to go off and they know this fight isn’t going the distance. Paul and I end fights, it’s what we do. Like he said, we’re going to put on the most exciting fight of the night for sure.
Klausimas: I know that clip of you and Tito wrestling in college has been going around, so what do you expect from Tito this time around compared to the Tito you saw back then?
Chael Sonnen: Žiūrėk, Tito’s a great fighter. He was a hell of a wrestler…I caught him in one position in that match, I’m not hanging my hat on that. I’m pumped to be in there and compete against a Hall of Famer like Tito. I’m going to do everything I can to beat him, but I don’t dismiss how good this guy is.
Klausimas: It’s been a while since we saw you in there with Liam McGeary in that title fight. Taip, from then to now, what’s changed and what are you going to show us?
Tito Ortiz: I’ve been at work now for three years. I came from the UFC and Bellator gave me a chance to reinvigorate my career and I want to leave on my own terms. I want to leave respectfully. Scott Coker has done an amazing job with the company already and I sat back, thinking about what would be my last fight. All of a sudden, I’m watching Bellator on Spike TV and Chael Sonnen comes screaming out, calling me a coward and saying that he wants to fight me and I swear there has never been a bigger smile on my face. I was already getting ready to fight in November. I wasn’t sure who my opponent was going to be, but I was getting in shape. I’ve been training now for almost four months and this is probably one of the longest camps I’ve had and it’s time to showcase my skills. Chael says he’s fighting because he’s jealous and that’s the wrong way to come into a fight. I’m going in to get redemption and to me Chael is my enemy. This is no game, this is nothing fun, this is what I do for a living. I train and I go out to try and hurt my opponent. I know what I need to do. I need to defend the takedown, I need to watch out for the punches, I need to watch out for the guillotine. I know all of the moves that Chael has done and my job is to go in and destroy him. Apie Sausis 21, two days before my birthday, I want to get the ‘Fight of the Night.’ I hope Chael’s in great shape because when I’m on top of him, he’s going to shit himself. I’m going to throw my elbows through his face and like I said, this is no joke. This is serious to me because my family’s watching, my kids are watching, and all of my fans are watching. I’ve given so much for this and I’ve sacrificed everything. I sacrificed my Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my New Year’s for this.
Klausimas: Of all the guys you’ve verbally dueled with in your career, how would you size up where Tito stands? How does he compare to other guys that you’ve gone back and forth with verbally?
Chael Sonnen: Vyras, it’s painful. It was painful just listening to him read through that list of notes. He just rattled off all of his bullets right there in one answer and I think he asked to go to the bathroom during it, which was a little weird. I don’t care, I never thought about Tito Ortiz. I didn’t come to this organization to fight Tito Ortiz. I’ve been chasing Wanderlei Silva around, but Wanderlei is busy until the summer. They called me and asked if I’d fight Tito on Sausis 21 and I didn’t have anything else going on, so I said yes.
Klausimas: Beyond this fight, what are your goals in Bellator?
Chael Sonnen: I want to compete at Bellator. I want to be a champion, get to the top, and compete with all the guys. I want to find a weight class. I’d like to do it at 205-pounds, but I think there’s an opportunity at 185 and now we have some big signings at heavyweight and catchweight too. I just think there’s a lot of opportunity over here. I can tell you as far as training, working hard and being prepared, that’s what I do. I do it every day. I will bring my skills to the fight and if they’re enough I’ll win; If they’re not, I won’t. That’s just the way that this sport is played and I’m just looking forward to competing with these guys.
Klausimas: Coming back to compete in California, with your history with that athletic commission, you’ve already taken an out-of-competition test. How do you look at that process? Were you surprised by the test? Was there an understanding that it was going to be a part of the deal to get you back in California?
Chael Sonnen: I was surprised by it. That’s why the test works. I was not ready to be tested and I didn’t know that I was going to be tested and I haven’t thought about it a whole lot. You have to understand that when you’re a guy with my background that’s just coming off of a suspension, that’s the way it goes. You’re going to have more tests than other guys and that’s just fair.
Klausimas: Pagaliau, can you just size up the marketplace since you left UFC and since they’ve been purchased?
Chael Sonnen: Žiūrėk, I’m brand new. I only know a few guys at Bellator. I know three people, that’s how new I am. I’ve been to two Bellator shows; one at Mohegan Sun Arena and one in San Jose. Both events were sold out! When I was in San Jose, I was sitting there and down the ramp comes the greatest heavyweight of all time, Fiodoras Emelianenko. Coker signed him and didn’t even say anything to anybody. The place was packed and the ratings were going higher. I wanted to come to Bellator when I saw Ken Shamrock walk the ramp and I thought this is awesome. Connecticut and then California, both sides of the country and both sold out. The household name that Bellator has become is amazing. I used to have to explain to people what UFC and what MMA was. When I tell people I’m with Bellator, they know exactly what it is. When Tito and I met in that college wrestling match, there was 80 people there tops, nobody cared. It was a big sacrifice just to show off in front of 80 žmonės. To show off in front of a sold out arena, a record-breaking show, is fun. We get Paul Daley and Brennan Ward to entertain us before we have to go out and take care of business.
Klausimas: Tito, do you have any comment to Chael’s comments earlier about you reading from a script and all?
Tito Ortiz: This guy knows that he bit off a little more than he can chew. I’ve been through 20 years of competition, won world titles, and stepped into that cage over and over again. Įrodymas yra pudingo. I’m sitting here listening to the tone that Chael has and it sounds like he’s drowning and on Sausis 21, he’s going to be drowning in his own blood.
Chael Sonnen: I told you he was out of bullets! I warned you ahead of time!
Klausimas: Chael, congratulations on Celebrity Apprentice last night…great to see you on the debut there. How difficult is it for you to balance the Celebrity Apprentice, ESPN, your podcast, and training all together?
Chael Sonnen: I hate days off. I hate it more than anything. When I look at my calendar before I go to bed, I hate seeing gaps in there. So as far as training goes, I’m in the gym three hours a day. It’s an hour in the morning, maybe even less, two hours in the afternoon, I’m out the door in three in a half hours tops. Taip, that leaves me with another 20 hours in the day and I like to fill it. I don’t like to sleep a lot and that’s just the way it goes. I like to stay busy, but nothing interferes with preparation for the competition. I haven’t missed a practice, a run, a workout, a sparring session; I go every day. I go to practice every day no matter what, du kartus per dieną. There are parts when I’ll pick up the intensity and work a little harder and then there are parts when I’ll take a break to get a drink of water, but it doesn’t change for me. Aš pasiruošęs eiti, Viskas.
Klausimas: Chael, I know you said that you had a little more of a looser camp, where you’ve trained with a lot of different fighters, especially due to all of the traveling. How has it been, having access to some elite fighters in other parts of the country?
Chael Sonnen: I love working out in other parts of the country and I love going to different gyms. And that’s something new to me, because I didn’t used to travel. I was just locked at home in Portland, Oregon, but we had a hotbed out there, with guys like Randy Couture and Evan Tanner, I could name drop for you and it would really impress. We had a really great system out there, but it dried up and some of those guys retired. Some of them moved away and some of the gyms closed down, so all of these new traveling has been great. I’ve got a lot of rounds in and worked out with Georges St-Pierre and a bunch of hammers out there that you’ve never heard of yet, but you will. I’m getting good work in and I’m learning from these guys. The one thing that I try to do, and I copied Randy Couture on this, is always train with the kids. He would be in high school workout rooms doing some wrestling practice and it was very hard for the next generation to ever get ahead of him because he always trained with that younger generation. Taip, I spend a lot of time with those kids and I have my own practices on top of that. I’m not positive that I can take Tito down, I’m not positive that I can out-box him; everything has to get better. I have to get stronger, greičiau, better with more technique and better strategy and it all takes time.

He began training in MMA two years ago, joining Berserkers MMA in Rumford, a team heavy in MVHS alum.
“I’m happy to get back in the cage after a long layoff and defend my belt,” said Glover. “I was busy taking care of my family, but now it’s time to remind folks why I am NEF’s best 205er.”

Lewiston, Meino (Gruodis 21, 2016) -Nauja Anglija Kovų (NEF) grįžta į „Androscoggin Bank Colisee“ Vasaris 11, 2017 su kitu mišraus kovos menų renginiu, “NEF 27: RESURGENCIJA.” Anksčiau šiandien, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight fight to the card. Aaronas “Nepaliaujamas” Lacey (4-0) imsis Chrisas “Game Bred” Jacobs (1-0) ne kova svorio 145 svarų.
Voted “Kovotojas Metų” earlier this week by NEF fans, it would take a Herculean effort to argue that 2016 was not Aaron Lacey’s year. He made his professional debut in April at “NEF 22” defeating veteran Derek Shorey (4-8) and remained undefeated the rest of the year. Including his amateur career, Lacey is riding a seven-fight win streak. He has not lost a fight since the spring of 2014 (his only loss) – close to three years ago.
Neseniai, Lacey struck down seasoned pro Taylor Trahan (6-7) with a vicious liver kick that made the entire crowd at the Colisee cringe. A win over Jacobs on Vasaris 11 would move Lacey that much closer to signing a contract with a major, national MMA promotion – a fate long predicted by many insiders for the product of Bangor’s Young’s MMA gym.
“I’m looking forward to 2017,” said Lacey when reached for comment. “2016 was a big year for me and I am looking forward to carrying that momentum into the new year on Vasario 11 d. Chris Jacobs is a seasoned opponent who is making the trip up from Florida, so he will be prepared. I live in the gym and have been making huge gains, ir 2017 will be the year I get to showcase those gains!”
Jacobs is based out of DeLand, Floridos. “NEF 27” will see him make his first trip to compete in Maine, but Jacobs is no stranger to the MMA cage. He put together an impressive record of 8-3 kaip mėgėjų, including capturing a regional title on a fight card in nearby Daytona Beach. Jacobs won his pro debut earlier this year in Tampa. He is looking forward to facing tough competition in the form of Lacey.
“I must give thanks and praise to the most high for putting me in this position to fight in Maine,” Sakė Jacobs. “Tai palaiminimas. It’s an honor to fight someone of a high caliber and stature like Aaron Lacey. I look forward to coming up there and competing with a top level athlete.”
