Lewiston, Maine (Януари 11, 2017) -Нови Англия Битки (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Февруари 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE.” По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the full card for the event. The night will feature both amateur and professional MMA bouts.

 

Headlining the evening will be the semi-finals of the tournament to crown a new professional lightweight champion. The title was vacated when previous champion Девин Powell (8-1) signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Райън Сандърс (12-8) ще поеме John Ortolani (8-10) докато Jon Лемке (5-7) лица Jesse Erickson (9-5) in a rematch from Bellator 93.

Hansen was a Maine state wrestling champion for Mountain Valley High School (MVHS), and he has developed quite a reputation for downing larger opponents on both the mats and the MMA cage. Hansen was the recipient of the “2016 Submission of the Year” награда.

 

Speaking of 2016 призьори, на “Fighter на годината,” перо перспектива Aaron Lacey (4-0), will look for his fifth consecutive victory in less than a year when he meets Florida’s Chris Jacobs (1-0). Jacobs put together an impressive 8-3 Запис като аматьор, winning regional titles along the way.

 

The amateur card will feature a bout for the light-heavyweight strap as Райън Глоувър (3-1) защитава срещу Victor Irwin (2-0). Glover has held the title since last February. Both Glover and Irwin were Maine state wrestling champions – Glover with MVHS and Irwin with Brewer High School.

 

Also scheduled on the amateur card are no less than three women’s bouts. Angela Young (1-2), who put on multiple “Fight на нощта” performances in 2016, returns to face New Hampshire’s Christine Brothwell (0-2). съотборник Янг, Katie Baker (0-0), will make her in-cage debut against another tough competitor from the Granite State in the form of Alex Walker (2-1), докато Sarah Ziehm makes her debut against Nicole Burgess (0-1).

СЗО: Royce Gracie

Kazushi Sakuraba

Wanderlei Silva

King Mo

John McCarthy

Мат Mitrione

Royce Gracie

Името Gracie е синоним на MMA, и това до голяма степен е от Ройс Грейси, човек, за когото се смята, че е изобретил спорта, какъвто го познаваме днес. Победителят от първите няколко UFC събития, Грейси ще разбият много опоненти в една-единствена нощ, много от които са били много по-голям от него. Дълги години нямаше отговор за техниката Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, която той вкара в битка. Днес, трудно е да се намери ММА боец, който да не е тренирал изкуството на бразилското джиу-джицу, което баща му е изобретил. През февруари на 2016, Грейси озаглави „Bellator 149“, събитие, което разби рекордите на зрителска аудитория на компанията, които остават непокътнати и до днес.

 

Kazushi Sakuraba

С невероятно резюме, подчертано от победи над четирима членове на легендарното семейство Грейси, включително Ройлер, Ренцо, Ryan, и Ройс Грейси, Сакураба е наследил прякора „Ловецът на Грейси“. Японският смесен военен художник е особено запомнен с първия си сблъсък с Ройс, a ninety-minute marathon that ended in a TKO (спиране на ъгъла) victory for Sakuraba nearly 17 Преди години. Gracie would later avenge his loss, earning a unanimous decision win over Sakuraba at “K-1 Dynamite USA!!" inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Сега, almost a decade later, the two legends meet again and Bellator MMA is giving you the chance to be there when it happens!

 

Мат Mitrione

Matt Mitrione originally took his talents to the football gridiron, signing as an undrafted free agent with the New York Giants in 2002. After brief stints with the San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings, Mitrione entered the MMA cage and hasn’t looked back since. The 14-time UFC veteran began his professional career with victories in his first five fights, four of which came by way of knockout. Known as one of the top finishers in the sport, 37-годишният родом от Индианаполис наскоро завърши кандидатурата си с бившия си работодател, вземане на решение за тестване на свободна агенция. Сега Митрионе ще се опита да повтори успеха, който е намерил през цялата си кариера, когато среща Fedor Emelianenko в Сан Хосе през февруари.

 

Wanderlei Silva

Бившата суперзвезда на UFC Вандерлей Силва също ще присъства на Януари 20, докато „The Axe Murderer“ се подготвя за дебюта си в Bellator MMA в дългоочакваната година от 2017. Човекът, който постоянно го призовава, откакто се присъедини към промоцията, ръководена от Скот Кокър, Chael Sonnen, ще се състезава в основното събитие на ‘Bellator 170’ само един ден след „Фестивал на феновете“. Ветеран от 48 битки, Силва се присъедини към ММА с Bellator след прочута кариера с UFC, пресяване през средно тежки електроцентрали Cung Le, Брайън Стан, и настоящ шампион в дивизията Майкъл Биспинг. С 25 на неговата 35 победи в кариерата, идващи чрез нокаут, 40-годишният бразилски хотшот е нетърпелив да направи присъствието си усетено в клетката на Bellator MMA. Присъединете се към нас за ‘Bellator 170’ “Fan Fest” в Лос Анджелис и се запознайте със самата легенда, преди да направи своя дебют в промоцията.

 

King Mo

„King Mo“ е опора на Bellator MMA оттогава 2013, борба с всички, както в полутежка, така и в тежка категория може да предложи. Това ще бъде втората поява на Lawal на събитието „Fan Fest“ на Bellator MMA, давайки на феновете още една възможност да се срещнат с експлозивния нападател извън клетката. След неотдавнашното му главно събитие победа над Satoshi Ishii, „Mo“ сега насочва вниманието си към други пристъпи на „Moneyweight“, за да засити жаждата си.

 

John McCarthy

Известен на мнозина като „Големия“ Джон Маккарти, дългогодишният ММА рефер ще насочи вниманието си към „Fan Fest“ на Bellator MMA и ще извика кадрите в един забавен ден с някои от най-големите фенове, които спортът може да предложи. Маккарти направи редица запомнящи се двубои, насърчавани от Bellator MMA, UFC и други, превръщайки се в един от най-известните съдии в историята на спорта.

B173_1920x1080

Санта Моника, CALIF. (Януари 10, 2017) – A light heavyweight bout pitting former 205-pound world champion Liam McGeary (11-1) срещу Chris Fields (11-7-1) will serve as the main event of "Bellator 173: McGeary срещу. Полетата," which will take place inside The SSE Arena in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Петък, Февруари 24.

Hailing from Andover, Англия, the 34-year-old McGeary will make the short trek up to Northern Ireland’s capital for the first time in his career, where he will once again compete in a main event. The former Bellator MMA light heavyweight champion will enter the cage for the 10тата time under the Scott Coker-led promotion, where he has posted an 8-1 record with seven finishes. Following an 11-fight winning streak to begin his professional career, McGeary finally experienced the sour taste of defeat, когато Phil Davis wrestled the title away from him at ‘Bellator 163.’ McGeary has consistently proven to be one of the most dangerous strikers and submission artists in the 205-pound division, finishing his victim in 10 на 11 кариерата печели, including eight in the opening frame. Much like the “RMS Titanic,” which was built in Belfast, McGeary hopes to sink Fields when the two take center stage inside The SSE Arena on Февруари 24.

 

A native of Dublin, Ирландия, Fields will also have a short trek to Belfast when he enters the cage on Февруари 24. “The Housewives’ Choice” will be making his Bellator MMA debut, following nine years under the direction of local promotions, including three appearances under European powerhouse BAMMA. After competing at middleweight in 2015, the 33-year-old Fields returned to the light heavyweight division, recording a first round submission victory over Dan Konecke at “BAMMA 24.” Fields has tallied finishes in each of his 11 кариерата печели, making him one of the most menacing opponents for anyone standing in his way. Now the SBG Ireland product will look to make a splash in his first fight with Bellator MMA, as he prepares for the former division kingpin.

 

Hailing from nearby Straban, Ирландия, the 20-year-old Gallagher is one of the brightest stars in all “The Emerald Island.” At age 15, “The Strabanimal” moved away from home to join Coach John Kavanagh at Straight Blast Gym (SBG), where he now trains alongside the best fighters in the country including Connor McGregor. Having made his Bellator debut in London this past July in London, Gallagher followed up in December with a submission victory over Антъни Тейлър in front of a raucous home crowd at the 3Arena in Dublin. Gallagher’s opponent will be announced in the near future.

Матов “Ken Doll” Денинг (3-5) е планирано да се изправят Ricky Dexter (0-0) at a weight of 160-pounds.

 

Denning is fresh off an appearance for World Series of Fighting (WSOF) at Madison Square Garden in New York City this past New Year’s Eve. All of Denning’s previous professional bouts had been for NEF. The Lewiston resident is looking to break a string of three losses after submitting Derek Shorey (4-8) last spring at “NEF 23” in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Denning is a member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

 

“I’m coming back to NEF to make a statement,” said Denning emphatically. “I’m coming off of a couple of losses in a row and I’m coming to get that win. They think I’m all Jiu Jitsu and can’t take a punch. You want to brawl with me? Let’s stand toe-to-toe. You’re going to try and lay on me like you did in your amateur career? I’m going to welcome Dexter to the pros in a mean way. It’s a new level here and I’m going to come out on top!’

 

Ricky Dexter will vacate the NEF Amateur Welterweight Title to turn professional and face Denning on Февруари 11. Dexter won that championship last February with a first-round technical knockout of Caleb Farrington (3-1). Като аматьор, Dexter put together a very impressive record of 5-2 with all five of his wins coming by finish. Dexter represents Team Irish in Brewer, Maine.

 

“Once Matt Denning feels my power and the inability to take me down, he’s going to be looking for a way out like he always does, except I’m not looking for the sub,” Саид Dexter. “February 11th, I’m going to show the NEF fans that Matt Denning is in the fight game for the wrong reasons. I’m coming from the ‘ammo league,’ but I’ve been training with killers my whole career. I’m going to show everyone I belong here.”

 

NEF’s next event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE” ще се състои на Събота, Февруари 11, 2017 при 7 p.m. Билетите започват от $25 и са в продажба сега в www.TheColisee.com или като се обадите на боксофис Colisee в 207.783.2009, extension 525.

M-1 Challenge 75, Март 3 в Москва, Русия
ST. PETERSBURG, Русия (Януари 5, 2017) – Hot welterweight prospect Sergey “Streetfighter” Romanov is training hard to ruin the comeback of Russian veteran Магомед “The White Wolf” Sultanakhmedov in an interesting match-up Март 3 в М-1 Challenge 75 в Русия.

The M-1 Challenge 75 Main Event, featuring a battle of undefeated welterweights between defending champion Алексей Kunchenko (15-0-0, М-1: 7-0-0), на Русия, takes on Kazakhstan challenger Шаукат Rakhmonov (7-0-0, М-1: 4-0-0),was previously announced.

Фенове могат да гледат всички действия на компютрите си, както и за Android и Apple смарт телефони и таблети.
Due to a series of injuries, Sulktanakhmedov (18-5-0, М-1: 10-1-0) has been inactive for the past five years, since he knocked out Tyson Jeffries in the second round of their 2011 се бори в M-1 Challenge 24.
A former M-1 Selection champion, Sultanakhmedov is dropping down one weight class from middleweight to fight Romanov. During his MMA career, feared striker Sultanakhmedov has knocked out the likes of Dmitri Samoilov, Victor Nemkov, Pavel Kusch и Pliinio Cruz, Сред по-първенци.
His tremendous flair and style makes him a fan favorite, especially his “one-shoot, one-kill” attack. The 32-year-old has fought outside of his native Russia, in the United States and Japan, and during his fighting hiatus he served as referee.
Although he isn’t looking past Sultanakhmedov, fellow Russian fighter Romanov hopes that an impressive victory over Sultankhmedov will position him for his first M-1 Challenge title shot against the Kunchenkp-Rakhmonov winner.
Romanov has had impressive victories in M-1 Challenge competition, including a decision over against Brazilian foe Carlos Pereira през октомври миналата година най- M-1 Challenge 71, as well as a first-round stoppage via punches of Andreas Birgels this past June at M-1 Challenge 68.
“I’ve been working on my strength,” Romanov said from his training camp, “because the champion in my weight class, Алексей Kunchenko, is physically strong. I need to catch up. Not that I’m looking forward to a title fight, but I always have grandiose plans, така, we’ll see how that goes. Точно сега, I’m focused on Sultanakhmedov, and I think my fight with him would be no harder than a possible fight with Kunchenko.
“I started training camp with two workouts a day, but I felt sick and decided to cutback to only one workout a day until I soon return to full mode. I’ve been training at home (St. Petersburg) but will soon go to Ryazan to wrestling training camp. След това, I will go back to St. Petersburg to prepare at camp, and go to Borovaya for boxing. My opponent is left-handed, so I need appropriate sparring partners, but the guys in my camp are a great help.
“I know my opponent well having watched his fights as a youngster when he was champion. Сега, we need to reevaluate him. He was a good fighter who trains at ‘Gorets’ where there is, in principle, guys there who are top level. It’s difficult to say what form he has now because he hasn’t fought in so long. Сега, he is at the peak age for a fighter, 32, така че ще видим. I don’t think I’ll be favored in this fight, but I will go forward despite being the underdog.”

BATTLE OF UNDEFEATED ADAM PICCOLOTTI AND BRENT PRIMUS ALSO ADDED TO MAIN CARD

Санта Моника, CALIF - (Януари 4, 2017) - Cheick конгоански (25-10-2) ще предизвика Oli Thompson (17-9) по време на основната карта на "Bellator 172: Fedor срещу. Mitrione” на Февруари 18, 2017 в SAP Center в Сан Хосе, Халиф. В допълнение, undefeated lightweights Adam Piccolot (9-0) и Brent Primus(7-0) are also set to face off during the Spike-televised card.

В основното събитие на "Bellator 172: Fedor срещу. Mitrione," Fedor Emelianenko (36-4, 1 NC) will compete on American Soil for the first since 2011, когато среща Мат Mitrione (11-5). The event will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 9 p.m. И/8 p.m. CT. Билети за събитието започват от само $30 and are available at SAP Center Box Office, Bellator.com and Ticketmaster.com. Additional fights will be announced in coming weeks.

Откакто се присъедини към мелето Bellator MMA в 2013, Kongo has strung together an impressive run that has seen him emerge victorious in seven of nine contests, including three consecutive victories. С 37 кариерни битки под колана му, the Frenchman has tallied 25 професионални победи, включително и 12 чрез нокаут. The knockout artist hopes to build off his victory over Tony Johnson at "Bellator 161: Конгоански срещу. Johnson," when he welcomes British sensation Oli Thompson back into the Bellator cage.

Hailing from East Sussex, Англия, Thompson enters the matchup in search of his first career win under the direction of the Scott Coker-led promotion. Dating back to 2015, “The Spartan” collected wins in five of his last six bouts, including a pair of brutal first round knockouts. От неговите 17 кариерата печели, the 36-year-old powerhouse has finished 13 от тях, including seven knockouts. A former title-holder of Britain’s Strongest Man competition, Thompson will now look to add to that total when he and Kongo faceoff at SAP Center in San Jose.

Fighting out of Half Moon Bay, Калифорния., the undefeated Piccolotti is set to return to San Jose, where he has dominated competition over the past few years. Since signing with Bellator MMA, the 28-year-old lightweight has won all five of his bouts, including four consecutive victories in the “Capital of Silicon Valley.” Piccolotti dazzled in his most recent win over Brandon Girtz, ending the veteran’s three-fight winning streak while once again displaying his lethal combination of flawless jiu-jitsu and striking. Piccolotti has finished his opponent in six of nine career wins and three of his past four, making him one of the most dangerous weapons in the 155-pound division.

Primus also carries with him an undefeated target on his chest, as the battle to remain an unbeaten lightweights goes through SAP Center in 2017. Similar to Piccolotti, Primus saw immediate success in the world of mixed martial arts, recording first round finishes in each of his first five fights to begin his professional career. The five-time Bellator MMA veteran hopes to keep the ball rolling, as a win over the fan-favorite Piccolotti would certainly open a lot of doors. Hailing from Portland, Орегон, the 31-years-old Primus hopes to build off of a 2016 campaign that was highlighted by a key win over Brazilian veteran “Toninho Furia.”

Q: За Пол Дейли ... Имахме възможност да поговорим, преди да сте планирали да се биете с Дерек Андерсън ‘Bellator 163.’ Той направи тежестта, но битката не се случи. Така, какво ще се промени този път? Ще правите ли нещо различно в подготовката си и какво очаквате от Бренан Уорд?

Paul Daley: Нещата не се развиха по план на последното събитие, в което трябваше да се състезавам. Направих тежестта, но това, което се случи след това, беше проблемът. Тези проблеми са изгладени и трябва да върнем всичко в релси и съм готов да се състезавам в най-вълнуващата битка на картата.

Q: За Бренан Уорд ... И двамата определено доставихте вълнуващи нокаути в последните си изпълнения, so I want to know what your expectation of the fight is and if you think it will be a quick showcase.

Бренън Ward: They don’t just line two guys up like Paul and I for no reason — on a card like this, that is probably the biggest card of the year and one of the biggest Bellator cards of all-time == They’re putting our matchup on there for a reason. They know fireworks are going to go off and they know this fight isn’t going the distance. Paul and I end fights, it’s what we do. Like he said, we’re going to put on the most exciting fight of the night for sure.

Q: I know that clip of you and Tito wrestling in college has been going around, so what do you expect from Tito this time around compared to the Tito you saw back then?

Chael Sonnen: Виж, Tito’s a great fighter. He was a hell of a wrestler…I caught him in one position in that match, I’m not hanging my hat on that. I’m pumped to be in there and compete against a Hall of Famer like Tito. I’m going to do everything I can to beat him, but I don’t dismiss how good this guy is.

Q: It’s been a while since we saw you in there with Liam McGeary in that title fight. Така, from then to now, what’s changed and what are you going to show us?

Tito Ortiz: I’ve been at work now for three years. I came from the UFC and Bellator gave me a chance to reinvigorate my career and I want to leave on my own terms. I want to leave respectfully. Scott Coker has done an amazing job with the company already and I sat back, мислейки за това каква би била последната ми битка. Изведнъж, Гледам Bellator по телевизия Spike и Chael Sonnen идва да крещи, наричайки ме страхливец и казвайки, че иска да се бие с мен и се кълна, че никога не е имало по-голяма усмивка на лицето ми. Вече се подготвях да се бия през ноември. Не бях сигурен кой ще бъде съперникът ми, но бях във форма. Тренирам вече почти четири месеца и това е може би един от най-дългите лагери, които съм имал и е време да покажа уменията си. Чаел казва, че се кара, защото е ревнив и това е грешният начин да влезете в битка. Отивам да получа изкупление и за мен Chael е моят враг. Това не е игра, това не е нищо забавно, this is what I do for a living. I train and I go out to try and hurt my opponent. I know what I need to do. I need to defend the takedown, I need to watch out for the punches, I need to watch out for the guillotine. I know all of the moves that Chael has done and my job is to go in and destroy him. На Януари 21, two days before my birthday, I want to get the ‘Fight of the Night.’ I hope Chael’s in great shape because when I’m on top of him, he’s going to shit himself. I’m going to throw my elbows through his face and like I said, this is no joke. This is serious to me because my family’s watching, my kids are watching, and all of my fans are watching. I’ve given so much for this and I’ve sacrificed everything. I sacrificed my Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my New Year’s for this.

Q: Of all the guys you’ve verbally dueled with in your career, how would you size up where Tito stands? How does he compare to other guys that you’ve gone back and forth with verbally?

Chael Sonnen: Мъж, it’s painful. It was painful just listening to him read through that list of notes. He just rattled off all of his bullets right there in one answer and I think he asked to go to the bathroom during it, which was a little weird. I don’t care, I never thought about Tito Ortiz. I didn’t come to this organization to fight Tito Ortiz. I’ve been chasing Wanderlei Silva around, but Wanderlei is busy until the summer. They called me and asked if I’d fight Tito on Януари 21 and I didn’t have anything else going on, so I said yes.

Q: Beyond this fight, what are your goals in Bellator?

Chael Sonnen: I want to compete at Bellator. I want to be a champion, get to the top, and compete with all the guys. I want to find a weight class. I’d like to do it at 205-pounds, but I think there’s an opportunity at 185 and now we have some big signings at heavyweight and catchweight too. I just think there’s a lot of opportunity over here. I can tell you as far as training, working hard and being prepared, това е, което аз правя. I do it every day. I will bring my skills to the fight and if they’re enough I’ll win; If they’re not, I won’t. That’s just the way that this sport is played and I’m just looking forward to competing with these guys.

Q: Coming back to compete in California, with your history with that athletic commission, you’ve already taken an out-of-competition test. How do you look at that process? Were you surprised by the test? Was there an understanding that it was going to be a part of the deal to get you back in California?

Chael Sonnen: I was surprised by it. That’s why the test works. I was not ready to be tested and I didn’t know that I was going to be tested and I haven’t thought about it a whole lot. You have to understand that when you’re a guy with my background that’s just coming off of a suspension, that’s the way it goes. You’re going to have more tests than other guys and that’s just fair.

Q: Накрая, can you just size up the marketplace since you left UFC and since they’ve been purchased?

Chael Sonnen: Виж, I’m brand new. I only know a few guys at Bellator. I know three people, that’s how new I am. I’ve been to two Bellator shows; one at Mohegan Sun Arena and one in San Jose. Both events were sold out! When I was in San Jose, I was sitting there and down the ramp comes the greatest heavyweight of all time, Fedor Emelianenko. Coker signed him and didn’t even say anything to anybody. The place was packed and the ratings were going higher. I wanted to come to Bellator when I saw Ken Shamrock walk the ramp and I thought this is awesome. Connecticut and then California, both sides of the country and both sold out. The household name that Bellator has become is amazing. I used to have to explain to people what UFC and what MMA was. When I tell people I’m with Bellator, they know exactly what it is. When Tito and I met in that college wrestling match, there was 80 people there tops, nobody cared. It was a big sacrifice just to show off in front of 80 хора. To show off in front of a sold out arena, a record-breaking show, is fun. We get Paul Daley and Brennan Ward to entertain us before we have to go out and take care of business.

Q: Тито, do you have any comment to Chael’s comments earlier about you reading from a script and all?

Tito Ortiz: This guy knows that he bit off a little more than he can chew. I’ve been through 20 years of competition, won world titles, and stepped into that cage over and over again. Доказателството е в пудинг. I’m sitting here listening to the tone that Chael has and it sounds like he’s drowning and on Януари 21, he’s going to be drowning in his own blood.

Chael Sonnen: I told you he was out of bullets! I warned you ahead of time!

Q: Chael, congratulations on Celebrity Apprentice last night…great to see you on the debut there. How difficult is it for you to balance the Celebrity Apprentice, ESPN, your podcast, and training all together?

Chael Sonnen: I hate days off. I hate it more than anything. When I look at my calendar before I go to bed, I hate seeing gaps in there. So as far as training goes, I’m in the gym three hours a day. It’s an hour in the morning, maybe even less, two hours in the afternoon, I’m out the door in three in a half hours tops. Така, that leaves me with another 20 hours in the day and I like to fill it. I don’t like to sleep a lot and that’s just the way it goes. I like to stay busy, but nothing interferes with preparation for the competition. I haven’t missed a practice, a run, a workout, a sparring session; I go every day. I go to practice every day no matter what, два пъти дневно. There are parts when I’ll pick up the intensity and work a little harder and then there are parts when I’ll take a break to get a drink of water, but it doesn’t change for me. Аз съм готов да отида, това е.

Q: Chael, I know you said that you had a little more of a looser camp, where you’ve trained with a lot of different fighters, especially due to all of the traveling. How has it been, having access to some elite fighters in other parts of the country?

Chael Sonnen: I love working out in other parts of the country and I love going to different gyms. And that’s something new to me, because I didn’t used to travel. I was just locked at home in Portland, Орегон, but we had a hotbed out there, with guys like Randy Couture and Evan Tanner, I could name drop for you and it would really impress. We had a really great system out there, but it dried up and some of those guys retired. Some of them moved away and some of the gyms closed down, so all of these new traveling has been great. I’ve got a lot of rounds in and worked out with Georges St-Pierre and a bunch of hammers out there that you’ve never heard of yet, but you will. I’m getting good work in and I’m learning from these guys. The one thing that I try to do, and I copied Randy Couture on this, is always train with the kids. He would be in high school workout rooms doing some wrestling practice and it was very hard for the next generation to ever get ahead of him because he always trained with that younger generation. Така, I spend a lot of time with those kids and I have my own practices on top of that. I’m not positive that I can take Tito down, I’m not positive that I can out-box him; everything has to get better. I have to get stronger, по-бързо, better with more technique and better strategy and it all takes time.
