HOUSTON, Texas – Héritage Fighting Alliance (LFA) Le PDG Ed Soares a annoncé aujourd'hui que LFA reviendrait au Minnesota le premier jour de juin avec une confrontation légère entre le dernier champion des poids légers RFA et un artiste bouleversé..

 

 

 

L'événement principal de LFA 41 mettra en vedette le retour du dernier champion RFA des poids légers Thiago Moisés face à la plus grosse machine bouleversée de la division, Jeff “L'administrateur” Peterson. LFA 41 – Moisés vs. Peterson a lieu vendredi, 1er juin à la salle de bal Minnetonka à l'intérieur du nouveau Mystic Lake Center à Prior Lake, Minnesota. La totalité de la carte principale sera retransmis en direct et à l'échelle nationale sur la télévision au AXS 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

“Je suis ravi de ramener LFA dans la salle de bal Minnetonka à l'intérieur de l'état de l'art Mystic Lake Center”, A déclaré Soares. “Nous avons organisé quatre événements LFA à Mystic Lake l'année dernière. LFA 41 sera le deuxième des quatre événements MMA télévisés en direct à l’échelle nationale à se dérouler dans la nouvelle installation de classe mondiale de Mystic Lake à 2018. Lac mystique a été un excellent partenaire et accueillera désormais le retour de Thiago Moisés lorsqu'il affrontera Jeff Peterson le 1er juin.”

 

 

 

Les billets pour LFA 41 – Moisés vs. Peterson sont disponibles à l'achat MAINTENANT à MysticLake.com.

 

 

 

moisés (9-2) a récemment eu 23 ans, mais a longtemps été considérée comme l'une des perspectives légères les plus excitantes au monde. La dynamo brésilienne a présenté Javon Wright lors de ses débuts à RFA à RFA 28. Cette victoire a permis à Moisés de remporter l'or à RFA lors de sa prochaine sortie à RFA 35. Moisés a profité de cette occasion pour remporter l'une des victoires de soumission les plus mémorables de l'histoire du MMA. Il a exécuté un hélicoptère Armbar électrisant et ultra-rare pour soumettre David Castillo. La soumission a fait de lui le deuxième plus jeune champion de l'histoire de la RFA, est devenu viral sur Internet, et lui a valu un candidat pour “Soumission de l'année” aux World MMA Awards annuels.

 

 

 

Moisés a ensuite défendu son titre des poids légers RFA à deux reprises. La première défense du titre est venue contre Jamall Emmers à RFA 38. La victoire est venue avec le président de l'UFC Dana White assis à côté de la cage et a été présenté dans le septième épisode de Dana White: Regarder dans’ pour un combat. La deuxième défense du titre est venue contre Zach Freeman dans la ville natale de Freeman à RFA 44. Pendant ce combat, Moisés s'est cassé la main. Le produit American Top Team a quand même réussi à atteindre une victoire décisive à l'unanimité, mais il a raté près d'un an d'action en attendant que sa main réparée chirurgicalement guérisse. Moisés s'est ensuite blessé à nouveau à la main en lice pour le titre inaugural des poids légers LFA l'été dernier à la LFA 17. Maintenant, la ceinture noire BJJ est de retour et prête à rappeler au monde, que quand il est à 100%, il est le meilleur espoir léger au monde.

 

 

 

Peterson (9-4) mène actuellement une impressionnante séquence de six victoires consécutives et n'a pas goûté à la défaite depuis plus de trois ans. Cependant, the Alliance MMA product really started to make a name for himself last year after signing with LFA. Peterson did this by winning all three of his fights for the promotion against heavily favored opposition. The first win came against top undefeated prospect Bobby Lee via Unanimous

Decision at LFA 12. The second win came against local fan favorite Brandon Jenkins via Split Decision at LFA 20. The third and biggest win came against longtime Bellator star and fellow U.S. Marine Mike Richman via Unanimous Decision in the co-main event of LFA 29.

 

 

 

 

Now the 28-year-old known as “L'administrateur” will be looking to add the final RFA lightweight champion to his list of upsets. This is the next necessary step he will need to take if the Peterson regime plans on taking over as the new ruling administration atop the LFA lightweight division. He has gotten to this point by defying the odds. Peterson has administered his rugged, no-nonsense style of fighting to upset an undefeated prospect, a local favorite, and a popular vet. Now he will up the ante by facing his biggest test to date. When the opening betting odds are released for this fight, expect Peterson to once again be the underdog. He wouldn’t want it any other way. That is where he thrives. A devil dog, seen as an underdog, in a prime time headlining fight is a scary thing. Oorah.

ALL ROADS LEAD TO ROME; BELLATOR HOSTS FIRST EVENT IN THE ANCIENT CITY ON JULY 14

PATRICIO ‘PITBULL’ DEFENDS FEATHERWEIGHT TITLE AGAINST DANIEL WEICHEL, WHILE ITALY’S ALESSIO SAKARA RETURNS TO ACTION

cid:image002.png@01D3D0B6.6C007170

 

IL CENTRALE LIVE ROMA – FORO ITALICO ALSO HOSTS BELLATOR KICKBOXING 10, WHERE TWO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS ARE ON THE LINE

LOS ANGELES – Bellator is primed for a summer return to Italy, this time in the country’s capital city of Rome at the Il Centrale Live Roma – Foro Italico on Saturday, Juillet 14.

 

 

 

 

In a double main event, the card sees a rematch between Patricio "Pitbull" (26-4) et Daniel Weichel (39-9) for the featherweight title, as well as Italy’s most famous mixed martial artist, Alessio Sakara (19-12), prenant Jamie Sloane (8-3) à mi-lourds. Bellator Romewill air on Paramount Network and marks the promotion’s first trek to Rome, after hosting multiple events in both Torino and Florence.

 

 

 

 

Kickboxing will also be on display, comme Giorgio Petrosyan (85-2-2) seeks to become the inaugural Bellator Kickboxing lightweight champ when he meets Ching Allazov (53-2), while Bellator Kickboxing’s featherweight champion, Kevin Ross (45-13), will defend his crown against Gabriel Varga (21-6).

 

Bellator Rome will be broadcast Saturday, Juillet 14 gratuit sur Paramount Network à 9 p.m. HE / 8 h, heure. CT, while details about Bellator Kickboxing 10, including additional matchups will be announced in the coming days. Tickets are on sale now at Bellator.com and Oktagon.it.

 

 

 

 

“From the beginning of Bellator’s international expansion, Italy has always played an integral role in our growth,» Bellator Président Scott Coker a déclaré. “Following successful events in the gorgeous cities of both Florence and Torino, it only made sense to bring a card to Rome, the home of the Colosseum, a city that has seen warriors do battle since 80 AD.”

 

 

 

 

“Pitbull” reclaimed the 145-pound championship by defeating Daniel Straus via unanimous decision in April of last year, notching his 14eBellator victory and becoming the winningest athlete in promotional history in the process. En Juillet 14, the 30-year-old Natal, Brazil-native will bring into the Bellator cage his impressive record of 19 arrêts dans 25 opportunities against a man he has defeated once already, coming from behind on the judges’ scorecards to knockout Daniel Weichel at Bellator 138.

 

 

 

Quietly running rampant through Bellator’s featherweight division during his nine-fight promotional tenure, Daniel Weichel’s only Bellator defeat took place at the hands of his upcoming Bellator Rome adversaire. Since the loss, Weichel has climbed the ranks once again, besting notable fighters within the division such as Emmanuel Sanchez, Georgi Karakhanyan and Jean “Macapa” en route to his current number one contender status. Maintenant, with an opportunity to right the loss, “Canard” will take the two-hour flight from Germany to Rome, with the hopes of winning championship gold on his mind.

 

 

 

 

The pride of Italy, Alessio Sakara is set to make his fourth appearance for Bellator, a promotion where he has already defeated both Joey Beltran and Brett Rogers via knockout, as well as challenged for the Bellator middleweight title. Prior to joining the Viacom-owned organization, “Legionarius” spent the majority of his career with UFC, where he built his reputation as a powerful knockout artist. Avec 33 fights as a professional, Sakara has collected 19 victoires carrière, y compris 15 finitions et 10 first-round knockouts.

 

 

 

 

Sloane will be making his Bellator debut when he looks to play the role of spoiler in Sakara’s home country. With a winning record of 8-3, the BAMMA veteran has also made appearances at heavyweight and middleweight since beginning his professional career in 2014.

 

 

 

 

Referred to by his fans as “The Doctor,” Petrosyan is one man you do not want an appointment with. The top-ranked Armenian-Italian striking ace has put together an incredible 46-fight unbeaten streak, cultivating an extensive trophy case that includes multiple championship belts as well as “Kickboxer of the Year” accolades in both 2011 et 2012.

 

 

 

 

Currently in the midst of a 27-fight winning streak of his own, the 24-year-old Allazov has not suffered defeat since 2014, winning the K-1 super middleweight championship along the way. Hailing from Belarus, Allazov brings a Thai boxing style to the Bellator Kickboxing ring, a discipline that has helped him defeat fighters the likes of Bellator Kickboxing veteran Mustapha Haida, entre autres.

 

 

 

 

With four wins under the Bellator Kickboxing umbrella, Kevin Ross recently added the promotion’s inaugural featherweight belt to his already impressive list of accolades. Throughout his 58-fight career, Ross has previously held the WBC Muay-Thai USA welterweight, WBC Muay-Thai International super lightweight and Lion Fight super lightweight titles.

 

 

 

 

A two-time Glory featherweight champion, Gabriel Varga signed with Bellator in March of 2017, immediately making it clear that his sights were clearly set on competing against Ross. Italian fans may remember the 32-year-old Canadian from his Bellator Kickboxing 8 apparence, where he stopped Roberto Gheorghita in the second round of action.

CALEB HALL REACHES MILESTONE IN MIXED-MARTIAL-ARTS CAREER

Laisser un commentaire

Portland, Maine (Avril 10, 2018) – We all celebrate certain milestone birthdays in our youth that furnish a new level of freedom.

 

 

 

Perhaps the possibility of getting a driver’s license was the be-all, end-all at one point. Some eagerly await the option to vote or to serve their country through the military. And yes, many count the days to when they can toast responsibly with an adult beverage.

 

 

 

Caleb Hall’s grown-up goal, before he knew there were any restrictions against it, was to enter the mixed martial arts cage. Il était 17, a senior wrestler and football player at Dirigo High School, when he learned of an upstart enterprise known as New England Fights.

 

 

 

“Ever since I started wrestling, I started watching MMA and became obsessed with it,” Hall said. “Then when I found out the promoter (Matt Peterson) was from my area and that there were actually fights in Lewiston, Je ne pouvais pas le croire. I didn’t even know I had to be 18.”

 

 

 

Eleven fights later, his face a tad more weathered but his spirit emboldened from taking on the top amateur competition in northern New England, Hall is turning professional.

 

 

 

Hall will step into the hexagon against 20-fight veteran John Ortolani at “NEF 33: Riptide.” The card will take place at Aura in Portland on Saturday, Avril 14.

 

 

 

“He’s a tough opponent. He’s been a pro lacrosse player, so he’s definitely an athlete,” Hall said of Ortolani. “He’s been knocked out nine times to strikes, so I’d say he definitely has a questionable chin. That’s something I can try to capitalize on.”

 

 

 

Teenagers and young adults approached Peterson in droves when he and Nick DiSalvo launched the local organization.

 

 

 

All were enamored with the idea of taking their athletic acumen and fighter’s heart to the cage, so Hall’s interest was nothing new to the matchmaker. Taking the next step to sign a contract was always a different story.

 

 

 

“Caleb is a special athlete,” Peterson said. “He called me when he was 17 years old and asked for a fight. I had to explain to him at that time that he was too young to compete, and to call me when he reached the legal age of 18. To my surprise, he actually called me back when he turned 18, and he’s been an NEF mainstay ever since.”

 

 

 

With family, friends and former teammates packed into the cage side seats, Hall stopped John Parker in 51 seconds that September night.

 

 

 

“That was crazy,"Il a dit. “I didn’t really know what I was getting myself into.”

 

 

 

Hall went 8-3 en tant qu'amateur, winning his last three fights. His only NEF losses were to Aaron Lacey and Josh Harvey.

 

 

 

A run that started with a few-months-premature phone call ended with championship gold. Hall picked up the vacant NEF amateur featherweight title by submission over Erik Nelson in April 2016 and defended it by split decision against Johnny Crafts in September of that year.

 

 

 

“He never shies away from a challenge,” Peterson said. “Consistently during his time in the cage, he has embraced the opportunity to face the toughest guys. Whether it was Josh Harvey or (Brazilian jiu-jitsu) brown belt Johnny Crafts, he always goes for it. I don’t think he’s ever turned down a fight that I’ve approached him with, and that’s pretty much unheard of in the combat sporting space.”

 

 

 

Hall was set to make his pro debut when NEF made its initial Portland appearance last November, but he suffered a broken hand in training. The injury required surgery to install a plate, followed by months of physical therapy.

 

 

 

 

It all makes Ortolani (8-12), a Massachusetts native fighting out of Tampa, Floride, an interesting choice for getting those hands dirty once again. While the veteran has lost eight of his past 10 combats, he owns a win over a name synonymous with NEF, Bruce “Pretty” Boy” Boyington. Ortolani also took Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and Bellator Fighting Championships veteran Des Green to the cards before dropping a unanimous decision.

 

 

 

“If you want to make it in the pros, you’ve got to beat some guys, une,” Hall said. “I think it’s a perfect situation for my first pro fight. I hope his style plays into my hands. I’m going to be head hunting and going for that knockout.”

 

 

 

The fight will take place at the 155-pound lightweight limit. With the exception of two bouts, Hall’s amateur career was contested in the featherweight (145) classe.

 

 

 

Hall chalks up the change to the normal growth pattern of young adulthood, although he added that his strength and conditioning routine also played a role.

 

 

 

“He’s a rare kind of competitor, a champion, and when he digs deep and slides it into the next gear, attention,” Peterson said. “I’m looking forward to witnessing how he will define himself in the pro ranks. If his amateur career is any indication, he’s destined to make a name for himself and turn out some lights in the process.”

 

 

 

Look no farther than Hall’s recent travel itinerary for evidence of that commitment.

Salle, who relocated to Portland to attend college and train at Choi Institute shortly after his NEF debut, recently was in Florida for a two-week stint with the renowned American Top Team.

 

 

 

The eager 17-year-old has evolved into a man with a plan.

 

 

 

“There’s a Maine connection there with (Vétéran de l'UFC) Mike Brown, who is one of the head coaches. He originally trained at Choi Institute,” Hall said. “It was two weeks, just to get some training and see where I’m at. There are all kinds of UFC guys there to train and spar with. It’s a step up in the level of competition for sure.”

 

 

 

Opening bell for “NEF 33: Riptide” is set for 7 p.m. ce samedi, Avril 14. Pour obtenir des billets, appel 207.772.8274 ou aller à www.auramaine.com.

BOUCHER AND SHEA MEET AT THE CROSSROADS FOR PORTLAND MMA FIGHT

Laisser un commentaire

Portland, Maine (Avril 6, 2018) – Nate Boucher grew up in the world of amateur wrestling, where the rewards, penalties and path to winning and losing are cut-and-dried.

 

 

 

 

Takedown, two points. Escape, one point. Reversal, two points. The same clock that tells everyone how much time remains in the fight consistently informs the fighters where they stand.

 

 

 

 

In his two most recent sojourns as a mixed martial artist with New England Fights, Boucher, a native of Rumford and graduate of Mountain Valley High School, had no such compass. MMA is a more subjective science. That’s one of the many reasons an impressive winning percentage is harder to come by.

 

 

 

 

“MMA judging is one of the worst things to figure out. There’s not really a solid standard,» Dit Boucher. “The last two fights didn’t end the way I wanted, évidemment. Part of being an amateur is it gives you a chance to learn what the judges want.”

 

 

 

 

Boucher (2-2) hopes to halt a two-fight losing skid Saturday, Avril 14, when he takes on Walt Shea at “NEF 33: Riptide.” The card will take place at Aura in Portland.

 

 

 

 

A solid contender at the flyweight limit of 125 pounds despite those defeats at the hands of Justin Witham and Ryan Burgess, Boucher will meet Shea in the middle at a catch weight of 130.

 

 

 

 

Staying busy is part of Boucher’s strategy to learn everything he can about the sport, even if the immediate lessons are frustrating and humbling.

 

 

 

 

 

The criteria for MMA judging, in order of priority, are effective striking, effective grappling, effective aggressiveness and fighting area control. Boucher learned the hard way that his style may have cost him the ‘W’ in both the title fight against Witham and the hometown showdown versus Burgess.

 

 

 

 

“Everybody just kind of goes with whoever is throwing more punches. People don’t seem to care if you’re on top the whole time or not,» Dit Boucher. "Mais, vous savez, I can complain, or I can adapt.”

 

 

 

 

Boucher pointed out that the two judges who saw the fight go Burgess’ way had it two rounds to one, une 29-28 marge, tandis que le 30-27 assessment in his favor indicated that he had won every round.

 

 

 

 

Best-case scenario, bien sûr, is to end it early, the way Boucher did with a triangle choke in his second amateur outing against former high school wrestling legend Jeremiah Barkac.

 

 

 

 

“Even though I lost the last two fights, they couldn’t have gone any better for me as far as learning the game goes,» Dit Boucher. “It’s kind of opened my eyes a lot more, not necessarily to anything about myself, but as far as what the judges are looking for. It’s helping me learn more about the sport.”

 

 

 

 

Even though the fight is five pounds above Boucher’s natural weight, how he performs will have a heavy impact on whether he is still considered a viable threat in the 125-pound class or takes a huge step backward.

 

 

 

 

“Nate called me about a week after his fight with Burgess and said, straight up, ‘Get me back in there in April, and I want a tough opponent,’” NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson said. “He has a lot on the line in this one. A loss leaves him with a long climb back.”

 

 

 

 

The crossroads clash with Shea (2-1) is sure to be a learning experience. Shea, who trains of out of First Class MMA in Topsham, also lost his last fight. Fred Lear won that August battle for the vacant amateur bantamweight title on his home turf in Bangor.

 

 

 

 

No battle in the hexagon has been as daunting for Shea as his personal journey to get there. He initially followed his cousin, Nicholas, to the MMA gym as part of a fitness regimen after his weight crested at more than 270 livres.

 

 

 

 

En d'autres termes, when he walks through the door on any given fight night, Shea is literally half the man he used to be.

 

 

 

 

“I was just going there to train a little bit in jiu-jitsu, and John (Rayon) said to me, ‘Before we’re through, I’m going to get you in the cage.’ I’m thinking, ‘Yeah, droit,’” Shea said. “I lost about 80 pounds right off the bat training with those guys. It got me healthy, and then it was kind of, why not take the next step?"

 

 

 

 

Shea now walks around at 155 à 160 livres. He is making a slightly deeper weight cut this time, and fighting a natural flyweight, to find out if the title picture in that division is an attainable goal.

 

 

 

 

Gagner ou perdre, if his inspirational story helps a fan or friend make the commitment to a healthier lifestyle, Shea is all for it.

 

 

 

 

“It’s a lot better than standing on a treadmill,” Shea said of his unique path to fitness. “I tell people if you can just find one aspect of MMA that works for you – the grappling, the striking, whatever – it’s a great workout.”

 

 

 

 

Boucher said he has nothing but high esteem for Shea’s circuitous route to success in the sport. Admittedly, without a title up for grabs or a so-called grudge match in his sights, motivation could be more elusive.

 

 

 

 

The former Falcon, who trains out of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Lewiston, insisted that won’t be a problem.

 

 

 

 

“That’s an impressive accomplishment. I’m very respectful of that. Not just anybody can start out where Walt did and get in the cage for a fight at 125, 130 livres,» Dit Boucher. “Unfortunately when you’re talking MMA, not every ending is like a fairy tale. I’m going in there to win the fight, to end it early and leave no doubt, not leave it in the hands of the judges this time.”

Laisser un commentaire

The long-awaited mixed martial arts (MMA) debut of professional boxing five-division world champion, Amanda Serrano (0-0) had an opponent change, but of better quality.

 

 

 

 

Serrano was scheduled to face Mexican Erendira “Aketzaly” Ordóñez (2-1), but due to visa issues, the new opponent is now Californian Corina Herrera (3-4) in a three-round fight at the flyweight division (125 livres).

 

 

 

 

 

Serrano-Herrera will take place on Friday, April 13th at the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, and will feature simultaneous live broadcasts on Univision and Univision Deportes at midnight (12:00 am Eastern Time / 9:00 pm Pacific Time).

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Herrera has fought on the big scenarios and has never been defeated by knockout or submission. She has good stamina, her fights are exciting, she has good defense and has already fought in different weights from 115 livres à 135. I only hope that our fight is a great fight for all the demanding MMA fans and of course, for my boricua people who are my heart and soul,” said Serrano.

 

 

 

 

 

In this fight, 25% of the proceeds from the ticket sales on AXS.com, using the code “BORICUA”, will go to the organization “Voices For Puerto Rico” as part of a campaign led by Serrano, together with its promoter Combate Américas to help those affected by Hurricane Maria, an atmospheric event that passed through Puerto Rico last September. ( https://www.axs.com/events/351700/combate-estrellas-i-tickets )

 

 

 

 

 

“We cannot lower our guard. We must continue to help Puerto Rico in all possible ways because six months have passed since the hurricane came and we’ve still not recovered. My respects for the people who and left their families to help others while putting their lives in danger.”
