Джорджо Петросян (84-2-2, 1 NC) defeated Amansio Paraschiv (23-5-1) чрез единодушно решение (30-26, 29-27, 30-26)

Giorgio Petrosyan Quote: “I’ve spent a lot of time studying this opponent and I felt like I knew his fighting style well so I was able to put together a solid game plan and execute it successfully,” Petrosyan said. “Now I’m looking forward to getting some rest, and we will let Scott Coker and Carlo DiBlasi decide what is next for me.”

Дениз Килхолц (46-3) defeated Martine Michieletto (18-11-3) чрез единодушно решение (50-45, 49-46, 49-46)

Denise Kielholtz Quote: “It was a good night for me with the win, but it was tough fight. She’s a taller southpaw fighter and she really brought it. All rounds were for me and that’s the most important thing for me. It’s great to retain this belt, this is my biggest prize in the sport and I’m honored to be the world champion for Bellator,” Kielholtz said. “Наистина, за мен, Bellator is the biggest kickboxing organization in the world, they are really for the fighters, so I am very happy to be representing this company. The next time you see me out there might be in the Bellator cage fighting MMA. We’re working very hard on all aspects of my training and so hopefully before the end of summer you will see me fighting MMA.”

Джон Уейн Пар (96-32) Def. Нандо Калцета (45-10) чрез Head Kick at 2:59 на кръгъл 2

John Wayne Parr Quote: “Той беше жилав, he came to fight. He wanted to mix and trade but I was more than happy to do that with the hands. I thought I was a little bit sharper, but he had a crack – he had a good go and hopefully it was entertaining for the crowd,” John Wayne Parr said. “Before this fight I really wanted to do something impressive and get an impressive finish so to score a head kick knockout is like a slam dunk. I feel like Michael Jordan right now. I’ve been watching Bellator and I just want to be a star here and hopefully tonight is gonna put that notch in my belt and help me fulfill that dream.”

Мустафа хайда (46-5-2) defeated Enriko Kehl (45-12-1) via Split Decision (30-27, 28-29, 29-28)

Mustapha Haida Quote: I’m very happy for with the victory. I think I broke my hand or my wrist in the second round so I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to finish the fight, but I dug down deep and was able to get through the match,” Haida said. “Fighting for Bellator Kickboxing here in Italy has been a great experience for me and I hope to continue to fight here.”

Haida vs. Kehl Photos

Gaston Bolanos defeated Luca D’Isanto via Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

Gaston Bolanos Quote: “I came into someone’s home town tonight, and the guy had a lot more experience in kickboxing than I do, so I’m quite happy with the win. It’s a different rhythm out there. I’m used to Muay-Thai, which I’ve been practicing my whole life. I’ve done a few fights without elbows even though it’s still Muay-Thai so it’s a bit different from what I just did tonight. I just came from an MMA fight so I had to switch up my whole camp but this is what I want to do and this is the opportunity that Bellator has provided for me, so I’m going to take it and stay as busy as possible,” Bolanos said. “I want to thank Bellator, Скот Кокър, my coach Kirian Fitzgibbons and my team at CSA Gym for helping me and giving me all the opportunities that I’ve been given in my career. I’m hoping to get another MMA fight in here soon and develop a rhythm there. I want to become the biggest star in both sports and I know that I’ve got the opportunity and the talent to do just that.”

Искам да продължа непобедената си кариера тук в Bellator, може би скоро в Америка. Мисля, че би било страхотно да се бием там заради нивото на популярност там. Искам да бъда герой за италианските фенове, за които да се радвам и да развивам страстта към ММА в тази страна.”

TOP PROSPECT ED RUTH JOINS THIS FRIDAY’S ‘BELLATOR 168’ CARD IN FLORENCE FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT IN AS MANY MONTHS

Оставете коментар

 

Санта Моника, CALIF (Декември. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, И Рут (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Емануеле Паломби (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place този петък при "Bellator 168: Сакара срещу. Белтран," на Декември. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4ч ET/PT.

 

На само 26 възраст, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Джоуи Дейвис (1-0), Tyrell Fortune (1-0), Джарод Трис (1-0) както и Aaron Pico и Ромеро Памук – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Калифорния., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck и Chris Хъникът, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on Ноември. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 в първия кръг.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, включително и John Солтър (12-3), Ямаучи нагоре (31-9) и Филип Линс(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Дениз Килхолц (45-3) и Слава на Перитора (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Джорджо Петросян (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Джордан Уотсън (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Джо Шилинг (19-9) срещу Викторио Лермано (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Люк Новело (22-4-2) с Карим Гаджи (96-13-1), и Кевин Рос(31-9) ще се срещне Алесио Ардуини (26-14-2) в лек двубой. "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” airs Петък, Декември. 16 при 11:15 ч ET, immediately following "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii.”

СЪЩО: PHILIPE LINS NOW MEETS KLEBER RAIMUNDO SILVA

Санта Моника, CALIF. (Ноември 30, 2016) - А лек пристъп хлътване Ямаучи нагоре (20-3) срещу Мирча Валериу (12-3) completes the MMA portion of "Bellator 168: Карвальо срещу. Manhoef 2,” on a night which will feature both Bellator MMA and Bellator Kickboxing brands inside the Mandela Forum in Florence.

The mixed martial arts portion of action on Декември. 10 is headlined by a middleweight world title fight featuring a rematch between Рафаел Carvalho (13-1) и Melvin Manhoef (30-13-1, 2 NC), while Italy’s own Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC) ще поеме Joey Белтран (17-13, 1 NC) at 205-pounds, и John Солтър (12-3) отговаря Клаудио Аникиарико (1-4) в среднотежка мач. "Bellator 168: Карвальо срещу. Manhoef 2” will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4ч ET/PT.

The Bellator Kickboxing card features a female flyweight rematch between Дениз Килхолц (45-3) и Слава на Перитора (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” will also feature a lightweight clash between Джорджо Петросян (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Джордан Уотсън (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Джо Шилинг (19-9) срещу Викторио Лермано(30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Люк Новело (22-4-2) с Карим Гаджи (96-13-1), и Кевин Рос(31-9) ще се срещне Алесио Ардуини (26-14-2) в лек двубой. "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” airs Петък, Декември. 16 при 11:15 ч ET, immediately following "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii.”

An 8-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Yamauchi enters the cage in search of his 21во career win and seventh under the Scott Coker-led promotion. You would be hard-pressed to find a fighter with more promise than the 23-year-old top prospect, who has already taken down proven veterans the likes of Martin Stapleton, Исао Кобаяши, и последно Ryan Couture. The former featherweight returned to the lightweight division to face the aforementioned Couture earlier in the year at "Bellator 162: Shlemenko срещу. Горичка," a fight in which Yamauchi dominated from the get-go, earning yet another first round submission victory. Yamauchi has finished his opponent in 17 на неговата 20 кариерата печели, включително и 14 in the opening round of action. The Japanese-Brazilian submission specialist continues to make great strides in the sport, consistently displaying the flawless Brazilian jiu-jitsu technique that has given opponents many nightmares year after year.

Challenging Yamauchi will be Valeriu Mircea, a Moldova-born competitor that has also seen a great deal of success early on in his MMA career. The 23-year-old knockout artist will be making his Bellator MMA debut following three consecutive victories, включително чифт нокаути от първи рунд. Dating back to 2015, Mircea has collected wins in nine of his last 10 bouts and has already tallied six victories over his 2016 кампания. With three of his last four wins coming by way of first round knockout, you can expect an early array of attack in this pairing of two top prospects.

Taking on Lins will now be Raimundo Silva, a 28-year-old striker who will be making both his 2016 and Bellator MMA debut. Dating back to 2011, “Orgulho” has won seven of his last 11 конкурси, highlighted by his most recent knockout victory over Claudio Rocha, който дойде просто 3:25 в първия кръг.

MIDDLEWEIGHT BOUT PITTING JOHN SALTER AGAINST CLAUDIO ANNICCHIARICO ADDED TO MAIN CARD OF BELLATOR MMA’S RETURN TO ITALY

Санта Моника, CALIF (Ноември 1, 2016) – A light heavyweight bout pitting Филип Линс (10-1) срещу Pietro Cappelli (2-1) and a middleweight fight between John Солтър (12-3) и Клаудио Аникиарико (1-4) have been added to "Bellator 168: Карвальо срещу. Manhoef 2,” which will feature both Bellator MMA and Bellator Kickboxing brands emanating from the Mandela Forum in Florence on Dec. 10.

The evening is highlighted by a main event middleweight world title rematch pitting Рафаел Carvalho (13-1) срещу Melvin Manhoef (30-13-1, 2 NC). В допълнение, Italy’s own Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC) и Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) will duke it out in a light heavyweight feature fight. "Bellator 168: Карвальо срещу. Manhoef 2” will air on SPIKE at 4ч ET/PT.

A native of Florence, Италия, Cappelli has made an immediate splash in MMA, earning consecutive victories following his professional debut in 2015. Cappelli’s first career win came at the expense of Andrzej Kulik, when the 32-year-old delivered a brutal first round knockout. He then parlayed the emphatic victory with another first round finish, displaying his noteworthy ground game with a keylock submission just one minute and one second into the bout. With a noticeable message reading “unscarred” across his stomach, the Italian competitor prepares to dive in head first with a challenging matchup against the veteran Lins in his Bellator MMA debut.

The 31-year-old Lins will enter the cage for the 12th time in his career and fifth since making his Bellator MMA debut in 2014. Родом от Бразилия, Lins began his professional career on a nine-fight winning streak, finishing opponents in seven of the victories. “Monstro” has recorded a trio of significant victories since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion, including two first round finishes and his most recent knockout win over fellow Brazilian competitor Уилям Виана при "Bellator 159: Колдуел срещу. Taimanglo.” Lins hopes to build off of his big win and silence a crowd that will be heavily in favor of his Italian opponent Cappelli.

Fresh off of his first career victory, a first round knockout over Ilyrian Hoxhay, the 32-year-old Annicchiarico looks to continue his success when he enters the cage for the first time under the direction of Bellator MMA. The Italian middleweight will face a difficult first test in Salter, a 15-fight veteran that hasn’t been defeated since 2012. With a pair of submission defeats to Salter’s name, look for Annicchiarico to take the fight to the ground and grind it out there.

The former Strikeforce competitor Salter will make his third appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, after recording victories in his first two bouts with the promotion. He is riding a recent string of success, having won four consecutive contests and seven of his past eight. Over his seven-year career, the 31-year-old Nashville, Тенеси., native has collected a dozen professional victories, recording finishes in all. With nine of his 12 career wins coming in the opening round of action, Salter is known to be one of the quickest strikers in the division and most recently finished former middleweight champion Brandon Halsey.

MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP REMATCH BETWEEN RAFAEL CARVALHO AND MELVIN MANHOEF TO HEADLINE MMA PORTION OF ‘BELLATOR 168’

ITALIAN KICKBOXING ICON GIORGIO PETROSYAN TAKES ON JORDAN WATSON IN BELLATOR KICKBOXING LIGHTWEIGHT FIGHT

Санта Моника, CALIF (Октомври 7, 2016) – Bellator MMA is returning to Italy with another action-packed combo event on Декември. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence, featuring both Bellator MMA and Bellator Kickboxing brands. The Scott Coker-led promotion today announced the MMA portion’s main event, which will feature Рафаел Carvalho (13-1) и Melvin Manhoef (30-13-1, 2 NC) in a rematch for Carvalho’s 185-pound championship. Междувременно, "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” has added a lightweight matchup between Italian superstar striker Джорджо Петросян (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Джордан Уотсън (48-11-2).

 

The mixed martial arts event will also boast Italy’s most popular and beloved mixed martial artist, Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who takes on Mexican-American slugger Joey Белтран (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight matchup.

 

Exact broadcast details for "Bellator 168: Карвальо срещу. Manhoef 2” и "Bellator кикбокс: Florence” ще бъдат разкрити скоро.

 

The Bellator Kickboxing card also features an anticipated female flyweight rematch between Dutch striking ace Дениз Килхолц (45-3) and the woman who defeated her this past June, Слава на Перитора (11-1-1) for the inaugural Bellator Kickboxing Flyweight World Championship. Допълнително, other Bellator superstars Raymond Daniels, Кевин Рос и Джо Шилинг are also likely to compete on the card against opponents to be named later.

 

If you ask both Carvalho and Manhoef, the two’s first meeting didn’t go as planned for either party. Основното събитие на “Bellator 155” saw both men go toe-to-toe for 25 minutes before the three judges rendered a split decision in favor of the incumbent champion; a verdict that many deemed controversial. Сега, nearly seven months after their first meeting, the pair of competitors will meet again.

 

Carvalho’s second-round body kick knockout of Brandon Halsey at "Bellator 144: Хелси срещу. Карвальо " was the third biggest oddsmaker upset in 2015, and was the bout that earned the gold he wears around his waist today. The 30-year-old will be making his fifth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner and will look to extend his current winning streak to 14-bouts.

 

With a resume of knockouts as violent as Manhoef, it’s no surprise the Dutch competitor has earned the nickname of “No Mercy.” Known for his relentless striking style, the former K-1 and Strikeforce competitor finds himself once again in a position to lay claim to the Bellator 185-pound MMA title, and has even further incentive to leave the judges’ out of it.

 

Adoringly 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 will be making his debut with the budding Bellator Kickboxing Promotion when he squares off against Watson on 10 Декември. Training alongside his brother Armen, the 30-year-old southpaw put together an incredible 42-fight unbeaten streak, cultivating an extensive trophy case that includes multiple championship belts as well as “Kickboxer of the Year” accolades in both 2011 (BloodyElbow.com) и 2012 (LiverKick.com).

 

When you compete in the lightweight division in the world of kickboxing, aside from striving to earn the title, you’re also looking towards a fight with the No. 1 kickboxer in the world in Petrosyan.
