FNU COMBAT SPORTS SHOW: Lou Duva Tribute Show, Psychic Tom Padgett absolutely crushes UFC 209 Predictions, Garcia vs. Thurman Recap and Analysis

Tony Penecale (d'fhág) and Lou Duva (ceart) at the Brockton, Massachusetts dedication of the Rocky Marciano statue.

Our show this week was dedicated to Lou Duva (above right with our co-host Tony Penecale). Lou died earlier this week at the ripe old age of 1994. He was a great friend to Rocky Marciano, a promoter of 19 Seaimpíní domhan, and a man who had all his irons in the one fire that lit his life: dornálaíocht. The promoter/trainer/manager/legend appeared on the FNU Combat Sports show years back, but unfortunately the audio is grainy and spotty. If you listen closely the gems our talk contains outweigh the difficult spots to hear.

The full Lou Duva interview is here:

KNOCKOUT ARTIST UP NEXT FOR HARVEY AT NEF 28

Lewiston, Maine (Márta 8, 2017) – Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF) cuireann sé a chéad imeacht ealaíona comhraic measctha eile i láthair “NEF 28: INFHEIDHME” ar an Satharn, Aibreán 29, 2017 ag an Colisee Androscoggin Bank i Lewiston, Maine. Níos luaithe inniu, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Josh “Hook OnHarvey (3-0) le chéile Eric “Airgead” Mendiola (2-1) ag troid meáchan de 145-punt.

Harvey, the former NEF amateur division lightweight champion, is undefeated to date since making his professional debut last spring. With a solid amateur boxing background, as well as the pedigree of a two-time Maine state wrestling champion, matchmakers have had difficulty in finding opponents willing to step into the cage with him. The Young’s MMA prospect has displayed both devastating knockout power and slick submission skills throughout his career thus far. An chuid is mó le déanaí, Harvey submitted Richie Collingham (3-4) an mhí seo caite ag “NEF 27.”

“'Airgead’ and I are the type of fight that takes the spotlight, and I know it’s one that people will be talking about for a long time,” remarked Harvey on the upcoming fight. “I’m prepared for war in this kill-or-be-killed contest.

Mendiola, a product of Mohawk Valley MMA in the Utica, New York area, will make his first appearance in the NEF cage on Aibreán 29, but he is far from a newcomer to the sport of MMA. He had more than twenty amateur fights prior to turning pro in 2015. Mendiola has built a reputation as a knockout artist. After numerous knockout finishes in the amateur ranks, Mendiola put the lights out for his first two pro opponents, both in under a minute. He will look to rebound from his first loss as a pro last fall.

I’m a different kind of focused for this fight, meabhrach agus fisiceach,” stated Mendiola when reached for comment. “Harvey looks like a tough kid with a good record, and I’m up for the challenge. I have a bad taste in my mouth from a couple of months ago, and I’m coming to lay it all on the line and showcase all of my skills. Let’s get to it!”

LACEY TO TAKE ON BELLATOR VETERAN AT NEF 28

 

DO SCAOILEADH Láithreach: Lewiston, Maine (Márta 7, 2017) – Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF) cuireann sé a chéad imeacht ealaíona comhraic measctha eile i láthair “NEF 28: INFHEIDHME” ar an Satharn, Aibreán 29, 2017 ag an Colisee Androscoggin Bank i Lewiston, Maine. Níos luaithe inniu, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Aaron “Gan staonadh” Lacey (4-0) shínigh aghaidh WalterAll-DaySmith-Cotito (4-5) ag troid meáchan de 145-punt.

Aaron Lacey, undefeated as a professional, has won seven in a row going back to his amateur career. He was prepared to compete at “NEF 27” an mhí seo caite, but Mother Nature had other plans when a snowstorm prevented his opponent from making the trip to Lewiston from Florida. The setback has made Lacey even hungrier to return to action, but the Young’s MMA standout knows that he has his toughest test to date in front of him in the form of Cotito.

This is going to be an amazing fight,” said Lacey. “Walter is a skilled and dangerous opponent, and he is realistically one of the most dangerous people I have fought to date. That’s alright with me thoughthe tougher the opponent, an níos deacra mé ag obair. After what went down in February, I’m chomping at the bit to get back in there.

The fight for Cotito will represent a rubber match of sorts with Young’s opponents. In the spring of 2013, Cotito took Ray Wood (8-3) deep into the third round before Wood, then Young’s standout featherweight prospect, was able to finish the fight. Cotito would gain a measure of revenge against the Bangor gym when he submitted Bruce Boyington (14-10) ag “NEF X” later that year. Between a pair of recent appearances for global fight promotion Bellator, Cotito scored a second-round submission of Elias Leland (3-2) ag “NEF 25” Is speisialtóir Muay Téalainnis é a ghlac a chrios teidil meáchain welter M-1 Challenge Aibreán seo caite ag.

I’m super excited to fight this kid that they’re all talking about,” exclaimed Cotito. “He has a lot of potential, they keep sayinggood, this just makes it more exciting for me! Nobody has seen the real Walter Cotito in the cage yet. Don’t miss this fight because ‘All-Dayis coming for you!”

Julia Budd (10-2) defeated Marloes Coenen (23-8) via TKO (punches) ag 2:42 de bhabhta ceithre

 

Quotes: “I have dreamt about this moment forever. Nuair a bhí mé 21 and first started kickboxing, I dreamt about being a champion and I didn’t make it, I lost.Budd said. “Mar sin,, this is my dream come true. The moment I signed with Bellator, I saw all the champions up there on the banners and I said to myself that i want to be up there with them some day. Now it feels like everything has come together.

Theres only one message that I want to give out to all the fighters out there and that’s please listen to your body. I’m very proud of all the women in MMA and I’m very grateful for Bellator,” Coenen said. This company picked me up when I was in a dark place and Scott Coker has given me so many opportunities throughout my career. Bellator MMA will always be my home.

Fernando Gonzalez (26-14) defeated Brandon Girtz (14-6) trí chinneadh d'aon toil (29-28, 29-27, 30-26)

 

Quote: “Everything I thought was going to happen anocht, happened. Every time he was going to go for a take down, I wanted to make him pay for it.Dúirt Gonzalez. I had to keep him busy and make him scramble. My plan was to box with him and then keep him away with the leg kicks. I wanted to make him work and get him tired and it proved to be effective in the third round. My next fight, Ba mhaith liom Andrey Koreshkov. He is one of the best and Bellator’s former champion. I think I will win that fight, which will put me right in line with Douglas Lima next.

Justin Dreoilín (13-2) defeated Roman Pizzolato (8-9) via aighneacht (arm triangle) ag 2:35 de bhabhta amháin

 

Quote: “I’m so grateful for Bellator and Spike to be able to come out here, do what I love and perform. Ach, go dtí mé, it’s about so much more than the competition, it’s all about knocking some dude out, so that we can knock out the water crisis with my team out there in the Congo,” Wren said. They are so incredible. I just train them and put the tools in their hands. They are much better fighters than I ever could be in this cage, so I want to be as good as I can, so that I can give them a voice.

Rafael Lovato Jr.. (5-0) defeated Charles Hackman (4-5) trí TKO ag 0:13 de bhabhta amháin

 

Quote: “I was completely prepared for this fight and had an incredible camp," Lovato Jr. Dúirt. “I’m just so happy and thankful to be with Bellator now. I’m so excited about my future, so let’s ride this wave.

My retirement caught a lot of people by surprise," Pfister said. “I’m going to take time off to focus on other aspirations, but who knows, maybe I’ll be back. Bellator is a class company and I’m honored that my last fight will be with them. Scott Coker and Bellator know how to take care of the fighters and I really like what they’ve done with the company.”
