Las Vegas, NV, (Novembro 2, 2018) – The Main Event of “FFC 33” delivered an upset and a new champion, as Mykta Chub (18-7-0) defeated previously unbeaten champion Andi Vrtacic (10-1-0) por decisão dividida (47-48, 48-47, 48-47) to win the FFC Middleweight Kickboxing Title.

 

 

 

Chub and Vrtacic displayed a great deal of endurance during their five round war. Chub was able to pin Vrtacic into the corners quite often during this fight, frustrating the young Vrtacic and preventing him from using his signature high kicks. Vrtacici landed some nice head kicks and few solid combinations but it wasn’t enough to impress the judges, allowing Chub to steal the win, and the title.

 

 

 

No co-main event, which involved two very exciting MMA lightweight fighters, Darrick Memórias (22-9-0) wasted no time submitting former UFC Fighter, “Cassius” Clay Collard (16-8-1) by rear naked choke in the very first round. The submission victory, which was the 19th of Minner’s career, only took 31 seconds to execute.

 

 

 

Andre Keys (10-1-0) went the distance with Randy Fuentes (7-7-1) in their Super Welterweight Boxing bout. Keys won by split decision (55-59, 55-59, 58-56) in a fight that featured both fighters standing in the pocket and trading hard shots for the majority of their six round fight.

 

 

 

In a Kickboxing Lightweight matchup, despite breaking his left arm in the fight, Chris McMillan (38-10-0) won a split decision (28-29, 29-28, 29-28) against Teo Mikelic (18-7-0) in a fight that featured some vicious kicks and crisp punches by both fighters.

 

 

 

The night began with Sherrard Blackledge (1-0-0) winning his professional MMA debut by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-26, 30-27) over Jordan Christensen (0-2-0) in the Welterweight division.

 

 

 

“Most of these fights ended up going the distance and the fighters did not disappoint tonight,” said FFC CEO/Founder, Orsat Zovko. “FFC 33 showcased a lot of endurance and toughness and delivered an entertaining show for the fans.”

 

 

 

“FFC 33” took place at its permanent home, “Fight Dome”, which is located at Caesars Entertainment’s Rio Las Vegas. The event aired nationwide on CBS Sports Network.

 

 

 

Final Fight Championship (FFC) is the first and only professional combat sports franchise offering fans a unique ‘multi-discipline’ experiência (Boxe, Kickboxing and MMA), where every event culminates with a championship title bout.

TITLE FIGHTS HEADLINE FINAL NEF EVENT OF 2018

Deixe um comentário

 

Portland, Maine (Novembro 2, 2018) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) will hold its final mixed-martial-arts event of 2018, “NEF 36: Battle for the Gold,” no sábado, Novembro 17 na Aura em Portland, Maine. Hoje cedo, the fight promotion announced the fight card for the event featuring a full slate of professional and amateur fights.

 

 

 

The professional side of the card will be headlined by a pair of title fights as Ryan Sanders (17-9) defends the lightweight strap against Jacob Bohn (7-5) e Ras Hylton (3-1) atenda Yorgan De Castro (2-0) to crown the first-ever NEF cruiserweight champion.

 

 

 

Sanders has held the lightweight title since April 2017 when he defeated Jon Lemke (7-9) in a tournament final. He has won a remarkable eight in a row in the NEF cage, not losing on Maine soil in four years. New York’s Jacob Bohn has won his last two in a row over veterans Kenny Foster (12-13) and Lewis Corapi (8-4) respectivamente.

 

 

 

Ras Hylton is coming off a highlight-reel elbow knockout of Eric Bedard (6-8) em agosto passado. The 6’6″ resident of South Portland, known to fans as “The Jamaican Shamrock,” is a perfect 3-0 in the NEF cage where he also went 3-0 como amador. Yorgan De Castro is undefeated as a professional, having finished both of his opponents by technical knockout. The bout will be the first in the newly-created NEF 225-pound cruiserweight division which will fall between the light-heavyweight (205-libra) e pesado (265-libra) classes.

 

 

 

Also on the professional card will be a flyweight contest between Portland fan-favorite Ernesto Ornelas (4-7) and undefeated Massachusetts prospect Jose Lugo (3-0). Ornelas is riding a two-fight win streak while Lugo, nicknamed “El Salvaje,” has finished all three of his opponents.

 

Matt Probin (2-0) is scheduled to make his long-awaited debut with NEF when he meets veteran Lionel Young (7-15) em um concurso de pluma. Probin has won back-to-back bouts in Vermont via knockout to start his professional career.

 

 

 

As of press time, NEF was still searching for a replacement opponent for Carl Langston (0-1) in a professional featherweight bout after several previous opponents had pulled out. Interested featherweights should contact NEF matchmakers via email at newenglandfights@gmail.com. Serious inquiries only please.

 

 

 

The amateur portion of the card is scheduled to feature a total of three women’s MMA bouts. Glory Watson (1-0) vai assumir Megan Rosado (0-0), enquanto BJ Garceau (1-0) atenda Chelsea Tucker (0-3) e Catie Denning (1-0) enfrenta fora com Taylor Thompson (2-0). Watson, Garceau and Tucker are all members of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine owned and operated by coach Chris Young. The trio has been nicknamed “Chris’ Angels.”

LAS VEGAS, NV, (Outubro 22, 2018) – Final Fight Championship welcomed a distinguished guest on Friday night, Outubro. 19th, and she was sitting ringside to support her husband. UFC Flyweight Fighter, Paige Vanzant, was in attendance for “FFC 32 – Graves vs. Seumanutafa” watching her spouse, Austin “AK-47” Vanderford (6-0-0), deliver a blistering knockout to Edmilson Freitas (7-3-0) in the first round of their co-main event bout.

 

 

 

Vanderford won his sixth straight fight and kept his unblemished record in tact, after landing a solid left hand to the temple of Freitas at the 1:38 marca de uma rodada. Revendedor, as you can image, was filled with excitement as she watched her hubby win in such convincing and thrilling fashion.

 

 

 

“I loved it, I am proud of him”, said VanZant “I just have so much confidence in him, in this one I wasn’t really nervous at all, he is so prepared and ready for anything.”

 

 

 

Vanderford’s first round knockout of Freitas sent the crowd at Fight Dome Las Vegas into frenzy, and it allowed Vanderford to realize that he is getting one step closer to achieving all of his professional goals.

 

 

 

“I feel that I’m getting closer and closer to making things happen for me”, said Vanderford “I want to thank the FFC and the entire organization for giving me the opportunity and the fight, and I just knew if I connected with one of my power shots he (Freitas) was going to sleep.”

 

 

 

Needless to say, “FFC 32” was both a fun and productive night for the newlywed couple. VanZant and Vanderford tied the knot recently in an oceanfront ceremony on September 29th.

 

 

 

“It was awesome, they (FFC) put on a great show here”, said VanZant “It’s cool that they (FFC) display the fighters this well and hopefully he (Vanderford) can fight here again.”

‘Gravedigger’ Buries ‘Badwater’ for FFC Title

Las Vegas, NV, (Outubro. 20, 2018) – Sometimes things in life are simply quick and painless. Most of the fights at FFC 32 contudo, were actually quick and painful. Knockouts, let’s be honest, usually are quite painful.

 

 

 

Friday night’s Main Event was one of the only fights at FFC 32 (which was an all-MMA event) that did not end in a knockout. Shelton “Gravedigger” Graves (9-3-0) defeated Carl “Badwater” Seumanutafa (11-9-0) por decisão unânime (49-46, 49-46, 49-46) to win the vacant FFC MMA Heavyweight Championship Title.

 

 

 

Graves did a great job of avoiding standing toe-to-toe with the knockout artist, Seumanutafa, spending most of the fight pressing the heavy-handed Samoan (Seumanutafa) up against the ropes and using knees to the body and a series of quick uppercuts to frustrate his opponent. A estratégia funcionou, as Seumanutafa was frustrated with the constant pressure, which allowed Graves to keep him on the ropes and against the turnbuckle, taking away any opportunity for a Seumanutafa trademark knockout.

 

 

 

No co-main event, Undefeated Welterweight, Austin “AK-47” Vanderford (6-0-0), kept his unblemished record in tact when he rocked Emilson “The Amazonian Warrior” Freitas (7-3-0) with a nice left hand to the temple at the 1:38 marca de uma rodada. Vanderford wins by KO for only the second time in his professional career.

 

 

 

Previously unbeaten Light Heavyweight, Ivan Erslan (6-1-0), was trying to stay undefeated as a professional but his opponent, Branko Busick (3-1-0) had other ideas. Busick sent Erslan to the canvas at the 4:41 mark of the second round with a solid left hand to the chin and it was all she wrote for Erslan. Busick picks up the first KO victory of his young career.

 

 

 

In the Lightweight division, as promised, it was a “grapplers paradise” for as long as it lasted… And it didn’t last very long. Brandon “Kiba” Ricetti (9-2-0) submitted Adam “Smash” Ferreiro (11-10-0) by Arm Triangle at the 4:26 mark of the very first round. If you’re keeping score, all nine of Ricetti’s wins have come by submission.

 

 

 

FFC 32 took place at its permanent home, “Fight Dome”, which is located at Caesars Entertainment’s Rio Las Vegas. The event aired nationwide on CBS Sports Network.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – O CEO da LFA, Ed Soares, anunciou hoje que a promoção irá coroar um rei e uma rainha peso galo com uma dobradinha no campeonato quando a promoção retornar a Dallas em novembro.

 

 

O evento principal do LFA 55 contará com uma luta pelo título do galo quando o potencial invicto Miles Johns luta contra o outro candidato Adrian Yanez pelo título vago. O co-headliner contará com uma luta pelo título galo feminino quando a rainha regional Sarah “Muito doce” Alpar” enfrenta a superestrela panamenha Joselyne “A Pantera” Edwards pelo título inaugural. LFA 55 – Johns vs. Yanez acontece nesta sexta-feira, 30 de novembro na The Bomb Factory em Dallas, Texas. Todo o card principal será transmitido ao vivo em todo o país e na TV AXS em 9 p.m. E / 6 p.m. PT

 

 

“Estou animado para trazer um campeonato duplo para o local de nascimento do LFA,” stated Soares. “Coroaremos um rei e uma rainha peso galo quando voltarmos a Dallas em 30 de novembro. Miles Johns e Adrian Yanez são dois de nossos candidatos mais talentosos. Eles se encontrarão pelo título vago galo na luta principal da LFA 55. Também coroaremos o campeão peso galo feminino inaugural quando Sarah Alpar enfrentar Joselyne Edwards no co-headliner do LFA55.”

 

 

 

Ingressos para LFA 55 – Johns vs. Yanez estão disponíveis para compra AGORA em TheBombFactory.com.

 

 

 

Johns (7-0) vai para esta luta pelo título procurando pontuar o que tem sido uma excelente carreira até este ponto. O nativo de Kansas, quem agora chama Dallas de casa, terá a chance de ganhar ouro LFA e executar seu recorde para 8-0. Isso o posicionaria como o melhor candidato indiscutível peso galo do mundo. A potência conhecida como “Chapo” ganhou seu apelido temível por seu comportamento implacável dentro do octógono. O destaque do Fortis MMA, de 24 anos, venceu suas últimas três lutas pelo LFA e Legacy FC (antes da fusão), que inclui a submissão de um comunicado sobre o outro candidato invicto Eric Ellington no LFA 40. Johns agora vai aumentar a aposta em busca de um desempenho vencedor do título em sua primeira luta como atração principal para a promoção na LFA 55.

 

 

 

Yanez (7-2) é um destaque do LFA e também de Houston que tentará jogar spoiler em uma longa rivalidade esportiva entre Dallas e Houston, que é conhecido como Rivalidade I-45. Yanez, como Johns, ganhe na promoção. Depois de desfrutar de uma fantástica carreira amadora no Legacy FC (antes da fusão), Yanez continuou seu sucesso como profissional. Isso inclui vencer suas duas últimas lutas pelo LFA de forma enfática. Eles eram o tipo de luta que treinava, fãs, e os promotores reconhecem como momentos especiais na carreira de um jovem lutador. Os momentos em que um lutador se transforma de um candidato promissor em um candidato ao título legítimo. O destaque do Metro Fight Club de 24 anos agora parece dar o próximo passo óbvio ao se tornar o campeão no LFA 55.

 

 

 

Alpar (7-4) tem sido uma força no MMA feminino desde sua estreia profissional, sete anos e meio atrás. O Oklahoman conhecido como “Muito doce” tem sido tudo menos doce com a oposição dela. Mais recentemente, a jovem de 27 anos conquistou um título regional ao impedir a importante perspectiva paraguaia Pamela Boveda Aguirre por nocaute técnico no primeiro round. A vitória deu a Alpar dois títulos regionais, além de uma vitória marcante sobre Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger no início de sua carreira. Jones-Lybarger passou a lutar pelo UFC depois de ganhar o ouro da RFA. Alpar agora tentará abrir um caminho semelhante. Essa jornada começa com uma chance pelo título de galo feminino da LFA inaugural na LFA 55.

 

 

 

Edwards (8-1) é amplamente considerado o maior potencial peso galo feminino na América Latina. “A Pantera” tem sido imbatível nos últimos três anos, que inclui sete vitórias consecutivas. A jovem de 23 anos tem sete vitórias nas paragens em oito vitórias na carreira, que inclui uma vitória por TKO de 57 segundos sobre a veterinária do Bellator Jessica Middleton em maio e uma vitória no armlock no segundo round sobre a veterinária da RFA Brenda Gonzales no mês passado. As duas vitórias também lhe renderam dois títulos regionais. Agora que Edwards e Alpar são campeões-campeões no cenário regional, eles vão tentar ir all-in com o título feminino LFA inaugural e #1 status de cliente potencial peso galo feminino em jogo.

MIDWEST POWERHOUSE

UNDEFEATED BRAZILIAN PHENOM
KILLYS MOTA
LIGHTWEIGHT WORLD TITLE FIGHT
Sexta-feira, DECEMBER 7th LIVE on AXS TV

MYSTIC LAKE CENTER
PRIOR LAKE, MINNESOTA

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – LFA CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will celebrate its year-end event in Minnesota by crowning a new lightweight champion at LFA 56. This event will conclude a stellar 2018 for LFA, which consisted of 27 events that took place cost-to-coast, across all four contiguous U.S. fusos horários, and were televised live and nationwide on AXS TV.

 

 

 

O evento principal do LFA 56 will feature a lightweight title fight when Midwest powerhouse Austin Hubbard faces top undefeated Brazilian prospect Killys Mota for the vacant strap. LFA 56 – Hubbard vs. Mota takes place Friday, December 7th at the new Mystic Lake Center in Prior Lake, Minnesota. Todo o card principal será transmitido ao vivo em todo o país e na TV AXS em 9 p.m. E / 6 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

“I am excited to bring our year-end event at the world-class Mystic Lake Center in Minnesota”, stated Soares. “LFA has enjoyed two incredible years since the merger of RFA and Legacy created our promotion. LFA 56 will punctuate year number two in style. It will be the fourth nationally televised MMA event to take place inside Mystic Lake’s new world-class facility in 2018. Mystic Lake has been a wonderful partner and it will now host the LFA lightweight world title fight between Austin Hubbard and Killys Mota on December 7th.”

 

 

 

Ingressos para LFA 56 – Hubbard vs. Mota are available for purchase NOW at MysticLake.com.

 

 

 

Hubbard (9-2) returns to the LFA Octagon fresh off the most impressive win of his career. That win took place in his LFA debut in May against fellow top prospect Harvey Park. The fight took place at LFA 39 in Vail, Colorado. The resort town is over 8,000 feet above sea level and the event broke AXS TV’s record for the highest elevated event in network history. The 26-year-old Illinois native, that currently trains at Elevation Fight Team in Denver, was able to withstand the thin air and won a war of attrition against the talented New Mexico based Sheriff’s Deputy, who was riding a 7-fight win streak. Hubbard earned a shot at the vacant title with that gritty performance and will now travel back home to the Midwest with his sights set on becoming LFA’s second lightweight champion.

 

 

 

Mota (11-0) will get his LFA title shot after doing what every fighter dreams of achieving after their first 11 lutas profissionais. That would be attaining a perfect 11-0 registro. During the course of that streak, Mota famously knocked out UFC and PRIDE legend Akihiro Gono in his native Brazil. Contudo, it was his most recent win that was his most important win. That came in his LFA debut in June against fellow top prospect Bobby Lee. The 27-year-old Glover Teixeira protégé stopped Lee just 21-seconds into the second round of their fight at LFA 41. The win came via Guillotine Choke after Mota battered Lee with his impressive Muay Thai arsenal. The win also came four weeks after Hubbard’s LFA debut win. Now their paths will finally meet at LFA 56 with the LFA lightweight title on the line.
