Jätä kommentti

 

SANTA MONICA, CALIF. — (Joulukuu 8, 2016) – A featherweight showdown pitting Georgi Karakhanyan (26-6-1) vastaan Emmanuel Sanchez (13-3) has been added to the main card of "Bellator 170: Ortiz vs. Sonnen” päällä Tammikuu 21, 2017 inside The Forum in Los Angeles, Kalifornia.

 

Tickets for this monumental event start at $36 ja ovat myynnissä nyt Bellator.com, sekä Ticketmaster.com. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.

 

Karakhanyan delivered one of the most spectacular performances of his 10-year career at "Bellator 160: Henderson vs.. Pitbull," kun hän tyrmäsi Bubba Jenkins vain 53 seconds into the contest. Karakhanyan then followed that victory up with another early stoppage, ending Kirill Medvedovsky’s evening via TKO just 3:40 into the first frame at "Bellator 164: Koreshkov vs. Lime 2.” With 20 hänen 26 career wins coming by way of stoppage, “Insane” looks to add to that total and finish “El Matador,” something nobody has been able to accomplish.

“El Matador” will be making his eighth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, a promotion with which the 26-year-old has had much success to date. Kotoisin Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he trains at the famed Roufusport gym, Sanchez is riding a recent string of success, having won nine of his last 11 kilpailut, including three of the past four. Six of Sanchez’s 13 career victories have come by way of knockout or submission, with five of the finishes ending in the opening frame. Sanchez was supposed to compete against A.J. McKee at "Bellator 167: Caldwell vs. Taimanglo 2,” but was forced out of the bout after suffering multiple muscle strains during training. Since signing with Bellator MMA, “El Matador” has competed against a who’s who of talent, facing names the likes of: Pat Curran, Justin Lawrence, Henry Corrales, ja Daniel Weichel.

TOP PROSPECT ED RUTH JOINS THIS FRIDAY’S ‘BELLATOR 168’ CARD IN FLORENCE FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT IN AS MANY MONTHS

Jätä kommentti

 

SANTA MONICA, CALIF (Joulukuu. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, Ja Ruut (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place perjantaina at "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran," päällä Joulukuu. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4pm ET/PT.

 

Vain 26 vuotias, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Tyrell Fortune (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) sekä Aaron Pico ja Romero Cotton – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Kalifornia., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck ja Chris Honeycutt, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on Marraskuu. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 osaksi ensimmäisellä kierroksella.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, mukaan lukien John Salter (12-3), Yamauchi up (31-9) ja Philipe Lins(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Denise Kielholtz (45-3) ja Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Joe Schilling (19-9) vastaan Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) kanssa Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), ja Kevin Ross(31-9) tapaa Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) kevyt taistelussa.

RASKAVALMISTEET VALMISTAUTUVAT SOTAA NEF: ssä 27

Jätä kommentti

 

Lewiston, Maine (Joulukuu 7, 2016) -Uusi England Taistelee (NEF) palaa Androscoggin Bank Colisee -palveluun Helmikuu 11, 2017 sen seuraavan sekalaisen taistelulajitapahtuman kanssa, “NEF 27: ELPYMINEN.” Aiemmin tänään, taistelukampanja ilmoitti ammattikilpailun lisäämisestä korttiin. Ras “Rasquatch” Hylton (0-0) tekee hänen ammatillisen debyyttinsä vastaan Mikrofoni “Viikset” Hansen (5-4) vuonna raskaansarjan jako.

 

Hyltonin nyt legendaarinen nousu NEF: n amatööriraskasdivisioonan riveissä on yksi 2016. Klo 6’6″ ja kohoaa MMA-häkin yläosan yli, Hylton leikkaa vaikuttavan hahmon. Ainoa asia, joka on vaikuttavampi kuin Hyltonin koko ja ulkonäkö, voi olla hänen urheilulliset kykynsä. Tuottava hyökkääjä, Hylton viimeisteli kaikki kolme vastustajaansa tänä vuonna joko pudotuksella tai teknisellä pudotuksella.

 

“Rasquatch,” tai kuten jotkut fanit kutsuvat häntä “Jamaikan Shamrock,” alkoi todellakin nostaa kulmakarvoja Matt Gloverin korostuspyörän pään potkinnalla (1-1) viime kevät. Sitten, viime kuussa “NEF 26,” Hylton iski äärimmäisen kovaa Kevin Smithiä (3-3) veriseen massaan. Hyltonin ensimmäisen luokan MMA: n ja Dragon Fire Martial Artsin valmentajat tunsivat heti tämän hallitsevan esityksen jälkeen, että oli oikea aika tehdä hyppy ammattilaisille.

 

“Olen niin kiitollinen siitä, että taistelen Mike Hansenin suurta miestä vastaan ​​perheeni ja ystävieni edessä,” sanoi Hylton. “Ensimmäisenä ammattitaistelijana, joka on tullut ulos sekä Dragon Fire Martial Artsista että ensimmäisen luokan MMA: sta, ja Shihan Andy Campbellin ohjeiden mukaan, Johannes “Ykkösluokan” Raio ja tiimini, valmistaudumme siihen, että menen sotaan, koska Mike tuo aina häkkiin.”

 

Entinen Mainen osavaltion raskaan painin mestari Mountain Valley High Schoolista, Mike Hansen ei ole koskaan kieltäytynyt taistelemasta häntä suuremman kanssa. Itse asiassa, Hansen, joka kilpailee myös keskiraskas- ja keskipainoluokissa, on saanut mainetta jonkin verran a “jättiläinen tappaja.”

 

Aiemmin tänä vuonna, Hansen lähetti huomattavasti isomman Jesse Baughmanin (0-2) ensimmäisellä kierroksella klo “NEF 22.” Hän seurasi vaikuttavaa esitystä melkein pudottamalla paljon suuremmat Brendan-taistelut (1-1) oikealla kädellä “NEF 23.” Tänä syksynä Hansen luovutti lähes puolen jalan Matt Andrikutille (2-1) ja lähetti isomman vastustajansa ensimmäisellä kierroksella. Todellakin, Hyltonin koon edulla ei ole juurikaan merkitystä tämän taistelun lopputuloksessa, jos Hansenilla on jotain sanottavaa siitä.

 

“Olen erittäin innoissani tässä taistelussa,” huudahti Hansen. “Haluan olla osa näitä "supertaisteluja.’ Tiedän, että Rasilla on takana suuri leiri ja hän tulee 100% valmis. En odota mitään vähemmän Raiolta, mutta mielestäni kokemukseni ja tyytymättömyyteni häkissä on paras omaisuuteni, eikä hän voi harjoittella sitä sisään 10 viikkoa. 11. helmikuuta menemme sotaan, joten odota juuri sitä.”

 

NEF: n seuraava tapahtuma, “NEF 27: ELPYMINEN” tapahtuu Lauantai, Helmikuu 11, 2017 at 7 p.m. Liput alkavat $25 ja ovat myynnissä nyt www.TheColisee.com tai soittamalla Colisee lipputulot at 207.783.2009, laajennus 525.

PAIR OF INJURIES MAKE WAY FOR BRUNA VARGAS AND BRIAN MOORE ON MAIN CARD OF ‘BELLATOR 169’ INSIDE 3ARENA IN DUBLIN

Jätä kommentti

 

BANTAMWEIGHT FEATURE FIGHT PITTING SHAY WALSH AGAINST LUIZ TOSTA ALSO ADDED TO MAIN CARD ON Joulukuu. 16

SANTA MONICA, CALIF (Joulukuu 5, 2016) – Injuries to both Paul Redmond ja Bruna Ellen have led to new opponents for Daniel Weichel (37-9) ja Helen Harper (4-1) päällä Joulukuu 16. Weichel will now face Ireland native Brian Moore (9-4) vuonna höyhenenkevyt bout, while Harper will be challenged by Bruna Vargas (2-1) in a flyweight fight at 3Arena in Dublin, Irlanti. Vihdoin, a bantamweight bout pitting Shay Walsh (14-4) vastaan Luiz Tosta (9-2) puts a stamp on the main card of "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii.”

The Spike-televised main card will be highlighted by a heavyweight main event pitting “King Mo” (19-5, 1 NC) against Olympic Judo Gold Medalist Satoshi Ishii (14-6-1). Lisäksi, Anthony Taylor (1-1) will look to quiet the crowd as he enters enemy territory to challenge Northern Ireland’s James Gallagher (4-0) in a featherweight clash.

Liput "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii” are on sale now and start at 35€ at Bellator.com, Ticketmaster.ie and the 3Arena Box Office. The event can be seen free on SPIKE at 9 p.m. JA/8 p.m. CT.

In addition to a full card of Bellator action, ticket holders will also have the unique opportunity to experience an additional fight card from Europe’s leading mixed martial arts promotion, BAMMA. The bantamweight belt will be on the line at “BAMMA 27,” as Tom Duquesnoy (13-1, 1 NC) ja Alan Philpott(16-8) prepare to duke it out for division gold.

Fighting out of Lancaster, Englanti, Walsh will be making his Bellator MMA debut and against the savvy veteran Tosta. Dating back to 2014, Walsh has accrued four victories over his past five contests, including a brutal knockout of Gaz Pilot at “BAMMA 21: DeVent vs. Kone.” Of his 14 ura voittaa, nine have come by way of knockout or submission, making it easy to picture another explosive attack out of the gates by Walsh. After competing in the 145-pound division for the first 15 fights of his professional career, Walsh made the move down to the bantamweight division, where he has strung together wins in two of his first three appearances.

The 36-year-old Tosta enters the bout riding a recent string of success that includes victories in seven of his last eight contests with one draw. Hailing from Sao Paulo, Brasilia, Tosta will be making his second appearance under the Bellator MMA umbrella, after recording the aforementioned draw in his promotional debut earlier this year at “Bellator 158.” With each of his nine career victories coming by way of submission, seven of which occurred in the first round, it’s clear that Tosta will once again look for the early takedown and finish his opponent.

Filling in for the injured Redmond is Brian Moore, as he enters the cage riding a current two-fight winning streak and a blossoming career that is ready to take off. The 29-year-old Moore has won five of his last seven contests, including a trio of first round victories, highlighted by a vicious knockout that came just 2:30 into his bout earlier in the year. Of his nine career wins, Moore has finished seven of his victims, making him a tall task for the wily veteran Weichel. A native of Wexford, Irlanti, “The Pikeman” will not have to travel far for his upcoming showdown with one of Bellator MMA’s most proven veterans, as “The Weasel” will enter hostile territory for this face-off.

Replacing Ellen is the always dangerous Bruna Vargas, who will square off with Harper in search of her first win under the direction of Bellator MMA. The 27-year-old Vargas has recorded two wins over three contests, since making her professional debut in 2013. Hailing from Porto Alegre, Brasilia, the Team Nogueira prospect hopes to redeem herself with a promising performance against another stiff opponent in Harper.

Complete "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii” Main Card:
