Tomas, Tony ir Richas aptaria bokso rungtynių šėlsmą, kuris įrodė, kad McGregorui reikia dar maždaug šešių mėnesių “tinkamas fookinas” mokymai būti konkurencingesni 2007 m. Mayweather kruizai į 50-0, bet turtingi klausimai, ar tai tikrai užtemdo tikrovę 50-0 aplinkybės, kurios būtų padariusios Rocky nepralenkiamą seriją įspūdingesnę. Po visko, Mayweather laimėjimo ir varžybų metu neturėjo aktyvaus titulo diržo “Pinigų diržas” neturėtų būti laikomas tikru čempionatu, kurį jis gynė. Rokis išėjo į pensiją nenugalėtas, turintis diržą 49-0. Norint užtemdyti Rokio rekordą, Floydui, norint įrašyti 50-ąją pergalę, reikės turėti pasaulio čempionų diržą arba kelis diržus. Taip pat aptariame visa kita, kas vyksta kovinio sporto pasaulyje, išskyrus Rondos Rousey ir Traviso Browne vedybas.

Portlandas, Meino (Rugpjūtis 31, 2017) -Nauja Anglija Kovų (NEF) will make its long-awaited debut in Portland onPenktadienis, Lapkritis 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Anksčiau šiandien, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts bout to the card. Carlton Charles (1-0) imsis Nate Evans (0-0) at a catchweight of 175-pounds.

Carlton Charles shocked the Maine MMA community earlier this month with his stunning first-round technical knockout of Josh Jones (2-1) į “NEF 30” Bangore. Jones had looked indestructible to that point, only needing 24-seconds to finish his first two opponents combined. Savo ruožtu, it took Charles only 23-seconds to polish off Jones in his amateur debut. Tai buvo, išties, one of the most impressive debuts in NEF history.

Čarlzas’ athleticism comes as no surprise, tačiau, to those who know him. He excelled in football for Windham High School. As an assistant coach, Charles later lead Windham to a Class A state championship. He went on to play for the NCAA Division I University of Maine Black Bears. Dabar, Charles trains MMA with Charles Family Fighting alongside his older brother, and seven-fight NEF veteran, Nate Charles.

“I’m real excited about the opportunity to fight in Portland,” said Charles. “Not often have we seen MMA in Portland, so it’s definitely going to get a lot of attention. It’s a bit closer to home than Bangor was, so I feel like I’ll have a lot of support there. I hope to put on a good show and look to build on the success of my first fight. I know my opponent will be tough so I am training hard to be prepared.”

Nate Evans will be making his debut on lapkričio 3-iasis. Like Charles, Evans’ background is in football. He was a star quarterback for Sumter Central High School in Livingston, Alabama. Also like Charles, Evans has begun training and combat sports and is hoping to make a successful transition from the gridiron to the MMA cage.

UŽ nedelsiant paleisti: Portlandas, Meino (Rugpjūtis 23, 2017) - Naujosios Anglijos Kovų (NEF) will make its long-awaited debut in Portland on Penktadienis, Lapkritis 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Anksčiau šiandien, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts title bout to the card. Aleksas Walker (4-1) imsis Hilarie Rose (4-3) to crown the first-ever NEF MMA Amateur Strawweight Women’s Champion. The fight is scheduled to be contested at the strawweight limit of 115 svarų.

Alex Walker is a three-fight veteran of the NEF cage. Since losing her debut in the spring of 2015, Walker has been on a tear throughout the New England MMA circuit. She has won her last four in a row with three of those victories coming by way of submission. Į “NEF 29,” this past June in Lewiston, Meino, Walker forced Sarah Ziehm (1-1) to tap to an arm bar. She trains with Team Kaze of Lancaster, Naujasis Hampšyras. According to Walker, she is excited to have an opponent to strike with in the form of Rose.

“This girl is a more than a game opponent–she’s also a good striker,” exclaimed Walker. “She won’t back down. This will be a hell of a stand up fight! We’re going to put on a good bout. I’m looking forward to having an opponent that will trade punches and not back down!”

If it is a striking match Walker is looking for, she will indeed find it in Hilarie Rose. Rose, who trains at USMMA in Bellingham, Masačusetsas, burst onto the local fight scene in late 2014 with an ultra-brutal switch kick knockout of Tiffany McCoy (2-1). She has won her last two fights, and Rose is determined to end Walker’s streak to become the first-ever NEF women’s champion.

“I’m looking forward to fighting Alex for NEF’s first woman’s strawweight championship,” said Rose. “Alex has won her last few fights and looks like she’s got quick arm locks. Turint tai sakė, her winning streak ends on lapkričio 3-iasis, and I’m bringing the NEF belt home with me. I’m excited to show Maine and the NEF fans my skills.”

WWE SIGNEE TO CHALLENGE GULLIVER FOR HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE IN PORTLAND

Palikite komentarą

UŽ nedelsiant paleisti: Portlandas, Meino (Rugpjūtis 22, 2017) - Naujosios Anglijos Kovų (NEF) will make its debut in Portland on Penktadienis, Lapkritis 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Anksčiau šiandien, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts title bout to the card. Nickas Gulliveris (4-0) will defend the NEF MMA Amateur Heavyweight Title against Terrance Jean-Jacques (1-0).

“NEF is an amazing organization and I love fighting for them,” said Gulliver. “This will be my fifth fight for NEF and to me, this fight is different. During my fighting career I’ve always been fighting for someone, or something, and I’ve never really had time or the energy to really enjoy it. This fight I’m fighting to prove to myself that I’m good enough to be the heavyweight champion. People tell me every day after sparring or training that I’m good, but I don’t see it yet. I don’t see what others see and this is a time for me to see and believe. This camp I’m going to work and find myself in the process.”

Gulliver, a product of First Class MMA and the Foundry BJJ, has been nothing short of perfect over the course of his amateur career with NEF. “The Guardian,” as he is known amongst his fans and teammates, has finished all four of his previous opponents, including a third-round technical knockout of Yorgan DeCastro (2-4) last fall to claim the title belt. DeCastro is the first, ir tik, opponent to date to make it out of the first round with Gulliver.

“I have a lot to prove to myself and I’m going to look into the mirror on lapkričio 3-iasis and see the man I’ve wanted to be in the cage and out,” continued Gulliver. “I’m going to work as much as I can and never give up. Something I always repeat to myself is ‘cowards never start, the weak never finish, winners never quit,’ and I’m not quitting on November 3rd.”

Terrance Jean-Jacques brings a solid amateur wrestling background with him to the NEF cage. The Haverhill, Massachusetts native put together an impressive 22-6 record as the starting heavyweight for the NCAA Division I Iowa Hawkeyes as a freshman. He later transferred to Rhode Island College and was a runner-up at the 2015 Division III wrestling championships. Jean-Jacques signed a developmental deal with the WWE in the spring of 2016 to train at their performance center in Florida.

“Everybody fights for different things,” remarked Jean-Jacques. “Mano dalykas yra, I’m not doing this for anyone else but my daughter and myself. It’s much bigger than this fight. I’m reinventing myself and it’s kill or be killed. This will be the best version of myself to date. I have goals that I’m charging at in an unstoppable manner and I’m coming to get it. This is my destiny.”

“I want to thank my training partners and my family,” said Gulliver in closing. “I want to thank FirstClass MMA and The Foundry BJJ for everything they have given me. I’ve been training with FirstClass MMA and John Raio for almost three years now and I’ve been training with The Foundry BJJ going on eight years now. I appreciate all they do for me. I can name over 100 people that I train with every week that help push me, day in and day out, and I can’t thank them enough for it.

“Ši kova bus karas. If you put me and my opponent, Terrance, side by side and took bets, I’d be the loser all day. Shit, even I would bet against me if it was about size and looks. But this fight will be won by one thing and one thing only and anyone that knows me knows what I’m about to say. This fight will be won with heart. I’m not great at anything I do. I fail at most things, but I have a lot of heart and I push. Sometimes in life heart is what people need most. I’m looking to see what I’ve got on lapkričio 3-iasis and I’m looking forward to November 4th when I can wake up and see that I had enough heart and that I am the still the champ. Thank you to everyone involved in my life and thanks again for this fight I greatly appreciate it. Thank you to Terrance Jean-Jacques for coming to Portland to fight. Taip pat, just a quick thank you to my friend Josh Jones, who made me remember the fun in this game again. He got me motivated to fight in this one. I’m hoping this fight is just like watching fireworks at a baseball game. If you’ve never seen fireworks at a baseball game come to this fight and I’ll show you the feeling.”
