Gegard Mousasi impressed in his promotional debut over former Bellator middleweight champion Alexander Shlemenko, a win that earned him a shot at Rafael Carvalho, where 185-pound gold was on the line. Maintenant, after a decisive victory against Carvalho at Bellator 200, Mousasi will defend his crown against Rory MacDonald, entering the bout with his current unbeaten streak at seven fights. «Le capteur de rêves,” who trains out of The Netherlands, détient l'un des CV les plus impressionnants de tout le sport, à un moment donné le titre des poids lourds légers STRIKEFORCE, ainsi que les titres DREAM des poids lourds légers et moyens.

 

 

 

Au cours des dernières années, “The Red King” Rory MacDonald has become the most popular Canadian mixed martial artist due to his classic stand-up wars and wins over some of MMA’s best in Paul Daley, Nate Diaz, Tyron Woodley, B.J. Penn and Demian Maia. Bellator’s welterweight champion joined the Viacom-owned promotion in 2016 and went on to defeat Douglas Lima for the welterweight title at Bellator 192. Maintenant, the Tristar Gym-trained fighter sets his sights on winning gold in not one, but two separate weight classes.

 

“Rampage” vs. Silva:

L'ancien champion UFC et PRIDE est le fier propriétaire d'un grand nombre slams bobine de point culminant épiques et KOs qu'il a accumulé tout au long de ses batailles épiques avec les goûts de Chuck Liddell, dan Henderson, « Le roi Mo,» Kevin Randleman et, peut-être plus notamment, his trilogy with fellow Bellator athlete Wanderlei Silva, who he now meets at heavyweight on Sept. 29.

 

 

Wanderlei Silva’s wars with “Rampage,” Tito Ortiz, Mirko Cro Cop, Vitor Belfort, dan Henderson, Kazushi Sakuraba, Chuck Liddell and Michael Bisping remain some of the more memorable bouts in MMA history. “The Axe Murderer” is far from ready to close the book on his illustrious career, returning to action against a man he has already competed against three times before. In addition to the PRIDE middleweight title, Silva’s trophy case includes awards for “Fight of the Year” (2003, 2004, 2007), KO de l'année (2008) and multiple “Fight of the Night” awards. Plus récemment,, the Brazilian native made his Bellator debut against Chael Sonnen in the main event of Bellator: NYC.

NEF ET BRANDON BUSHAW ENVOYENT DE JEUNES ATHLÈTES À LA CLINIQUE DE LUTTE DE L'USM

Gorham, Maine (Juin 22, 2018) - Combats Nouvelle-Angleterre (NEF) announced earlier today that the fight promotion would once again sponsor an athlete at this year’s BrawlinLobsta Wrestling Clinic & Tournoi. The camp is set to take place at the Gorham campus of the University of Southern Maine (USM) à partir de Juillet 17 to July 22. For the fifth year in a row, NEF will select one winner for which the fight promotion will cover tuition to the program.

“It’s a thrill for us to once again be supporting the BrawlinLobsta Wrestling Clinic,” stated NEF co-owner and Matchmaker Matt Peterson. “This year it’s all the more exciting to be partnering with Maine wrestling legend Brandon Bushaw to send not one, but two wrestlers to clinic. Mike Morin’s USM program is exploding and with the latest round of recruits that he’s brought in, I have no doubt that they will be a threat at the national level within the next two to three seasons. I encourage every Maine wrestler to apply for this scholarship to earn a chance to work with Morin’s decorated staff clinicians. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to sharpen your skills, as well as learn some new ones, during the off-season.

En outre, NEF MMA veteran Brandon Bushaw has also agreed to sponsor an athlete in the program this year. Now a business owner residing in South Carolina, Bushaw cut his teeth on the mats growing up in Westbrook, Maine. He won two Maine state titles wrestling for Westbrook High School. Après le lycée, Bushaw went on to wrestle for Michigan State University where he was a teammate of current UFC competitors Rashad Evans and Gray Maynard. He is a member of the Maine Wrestling Hall of Fame.

I attended Boston University wrestling camp between my sophomore and junior seasons in high school,” recalled Bushaw. “Not only did it change me as a wrestler, but I really feel that it changed me as a person. I have attended and coached many camps, and the life lessons you learn there are very important. I am proud to sponsor a young wrestler to attend USM’s Brawlin’ Lobsta wrestling clinic because I feel it is important to give back to a sport and community that has given me so much!”

Camp instructors Mike Morin and Jon Deupree have both competed in the MMA cage in the past. Morin is the head wrestling coach at USM and a two-time All-American. Deupree is an assistant coach with USM. He was a two-time NCAA national qualifier wrestling for the Huskies.

I would like to thank NEF for supporting USM wrestling and sponsoring another wrestler to attend the BrawlinLobsta Camp this summer,” said Morin. “This sponsorship is huge in allowing kids to have the opportunity to wrestle year-round who might not have that opportunity otherwise. It’s great for our program at USM and great for the state as a whole to get better in the sport of wrestling!”

Interested contestants are asked to submit a photograph of themselves wrestling via email to newenglandfights@gmail.comalong with a brief statement of 100 words or less detailing why they believe the clinic will help them achieve their goals. The winners will also each receive a pair of tickets to “NEF 35: Wicked Season,” as well as an NEF apparel package to wear during the clinic.

prochain événement mixte arts martiaux de NEF, “NEF 35: Wicked Season,” will see the company make its return to the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor, Maine. The event is scheduled to take place Samedi, Septembre 8, 2018 avec un temps de cloche 7 h. Les billets sont en vente dès maintenant à www.CrossInsuranceCenter.com.

Deux combats pour le titre du Défi M-1 au Défi M-1 95 Kamzat Dalgiev vs. Nate Landwehr Movsar Evloev vs. Raphael Dias

Juillet 21 en Ingouchie, Russie
Nate Landwehr (en haut) a battu Mikhail Korobkov lors de ses débuts au M-1 Global en septembre dernier

SAINT-PÉTERSBOURG, Russie (Juin 19, 2018) — M-1 Global a annoncé que M-1 Défi 95: Bataille dans les montagnes présentera une paire de combats de titre en juillet 21 en Ingouchie, Russie.

 

M-1 Défi 95 sera diffusé en direct depuis l'Ingouchie en haute définition sur www.M1Global.TV. Les téléspectateurs seront en mesure de regarder les combats préliminaires et carte principale en se connectant à inscrire à www.M1Global.TV.

Combattant américain Nate “Le train” Landwehr (10-2-0, M-1: 2-0-0)), combats de Clarksville, Tennessee, défie le champion poids plume M-1 Challenge Khamzat Dalgiev (10-1-0, M-1: 7-1-0), tandis que le titulaire du titre poids plume M-1 Challenge Movsar Evloev (9-0-0, M-1: 9-0-0) fait sa deuxième défense du titre contre Rafael Dias (15-5-0, M-1: 1-1-0).

 

 

 

Landwehr a fait irruption dans M-1 Global l'année dernière et depuis le début, il est devenu l'un des combattants les plus populaires de la promotion. “Le train” combat un style pas un pas en arrière et commence à échanger des coups de poing avec les adversaires dès les premières secondes du combat. Tous ses combats sont spectaculaires et peu importe comment le combat se déroule, il est toujours prêt à trouver un moment pour éliminer l'adversaire.

 

 

 

Landwehr arrêté Mikhail Korobkov via des coups de poing au deuxième tour à M-1 Défi 83 à septembre. Il a suivi cette performance impressionnante de M-1 Global avec une victoire par décision en novembre dernier sur Viktor Kolesnik à M-1 Défi 85.

 

 

 

Dalgiev (10-1-0, M-1: 7-1-0), d'Ingouchie, est champion pour plusieurs bonnes raisons. Il surfe sur une séquence de 10 victoires consécutives, dont six arrivées consécutives. Novembre dernier, il a profité pleinement de son premier coup de titre, choquer le monde MMA avec un coup sensationnel hors de champion en titre poids plume M-1 Challenge Ivan Buchinger au premier tour à M-1 Défi 86. Dalgiev a cinq soumissions et trois KO sur son record pro, dont cinq finitions au premier tour.

 

 

 

Evloev (9-0-0, M-1: 9-0-0), qui combattra chez lui en Ingouchie, est l'un des champions mondiaux M-1 les plus dominants. Une machine cardio qui a été imparable, il est un combattant extrêmement bien équilibré. Evloev est toujours prêt pour tout ce qui peut arriver dans The Rage, capable de finir son adversaire tôt, ou le torturer pour 25 procès-verbal.

 

 

 

journées (15-5-0, M-1 1-1-0) préfère prendre son temps pour gagner par décision, mais les fans peuvent aussi se souvenir de sa superbe victoire lors de son deuxième combat en M-1 Global, verrouiller un grand étranglement pour soumettre Vadim Malygin à M-1 Défi 90.

 

 

 

Combats supplémentaires seront bientôt annoncés. Tous les combats et les combattants sont sujets à changement.
