Tom, Tony and Rich break down the biggest year-ending fights of 2016 and look forward to what should be a phenomenal 2017. We discuss Ronda Rousey, Floyd Mayweather, Andre Ward and other fighters in the news. We recap UFC 207 and look ahead to some Friday night fights on January 13th.
UFC 207marks the long-awaited return of “Rowdy” Ronda Rousey (12-1) to an Octagon she once dominated as the women’s bantamweight champion. The title taken from Rousey in dramatic fashion by Holly Holm is now around the capable waist of Amanda Nunes (13-4). Rousey will have a chance to rip it off and put it back around her own hips on December 30th.
Rousey’s been out of the cage for over a year, and she already confirmed recently that her career in mixed martial arts is coming to a close. Nunes is young, hungry and intimidating as the underdog (+150) looking to hold on to her belt against the legendary Judoka and MMA juggernaut. Rousey comes in as the favorite at -185.
There are more questions than answers going into this blockbuster event. Will Rousey shake off the ring rust and return to glory? Is she already one step toward retirement? Can Nunes quiet her doubters and continue to degrade the legacy of the first ever UFC women’s bantamweight champion? Chochote kinachotokea, the first round will be crucial. Both women will be looking to make it a quick night.
Utabiri: Rousey comes back with a vengeance and displays much improved striking and kick defense. Nunes battles hard and represents the best Brazil has to offer, but Ronda has too much to lose. She may not have a perfect record to protect anymore, but she does have a perfect reason to win this fight. She also needs to establish her alpha status to shut her own critics up and prove she is back to reclaim her title. Rousey wins by knockout early in the second round.
Another UFC bantamweight title is on the line in the co-main event. Dominic Cruz (22-1) gives Cody Garbrandt (10-0) a crack at the belt in what could be a true slugfest. Though Cody never lost a fight and knocked out nine of his ten career opponents at the professional level, Dominic Cruz (-225) is rolling along on a 13-fight win streak that dates back to March of 2008. Garbrandt (+175) does represent a proverbial “puncher’s chance” hapa, ingawa. He’s won his last three bouts by TKO or knockout. All of them ended thank’s to Cody’s lighting fast punching power.
Utabiri: Considering that Cruz is a tactical, defensive fighter, he will thrive as the fight gets into the deeper rounds. Garbrandt cannot win without a first round knockout as the experience and raw talent Cruz brings to the cage is unique and dynamic. He makes adjustments like no other fighter and uses body and head movement that seems to confound every opponent he’s faced in recent years. Cody will have to catch “Dominator” to connect with him, and he’ll have just one round to do it. Cruz wins by late round TKO or Unanimous Decision.
A heavyweight clash between Fabricio Werdum (21-6-1) and Cain Velasquez (14-2) is also featured at UFC 207. The fight is a rematch of a UFC 188 war between the two goliaths, which ended with Werdum winning the championship bout by third-round submission (Guillotine choke).
This time around, Velasquez is the favored fighter (-210) while Werdum is a +170 underdog. This is another brawler vs. tactician match-up, and it could go either way. Werdum showed a weak chin against Stipe Miocic, and Cain will be looking for every opportunity to check it.
Utabiri: Velasquez dispatches Werdum inside of two rounds. Cain’s striking is superior to Werdum, and he will not make the mistake of letting Werdum take the fight to the ground this time. Velasquez by KO.
Neil Magny (18-5) and Johny Hendricks (17-5) come into the cage for UFC 207 as two of the best welterweights in the league. Both are experiencing some ups and downs in sport lately, ingawa. Magny had a three fight win streak stopped by Lorenz Larkin in his last bout while Hendricks lost three out of his last four fights. Hendricks is a far cry from his former self and a long way from his championship days. Stephen Thompson wiped the mat with Hendricks en route to a brutal TKO before Kelvin Gastelum stepped into the cage across from the former champ and took home a unanimous decision after three hard fought rounds.
Utabiri: Magny is the more durable and dynamic fighter, and Hendricks can’t get close enough to land his best power shots. Magny will stop Hendricks’ advances, deny his takedown attempts and submit or stop the former champ before the final bell. Magny by third-round TKO.
Leading off the main card is another fight involving a former champion. T.J. Dillashaw (13-3) battles journeyman John “Hands of Stone” Lineker (29-7) in a bantamweight fight bound to be a future classic. Lineker brings an intensity, power and accuracy that is simply astonishing to witness. Dillashaw moves around the cage like an Irish stepdancer, dodging attacks like a Mexican bullfighter. Lineker showed in his last bout with John Dodson that he can be a crafty, technical fighter as well.
Utabiri: What T.J. lacks is Lineker’s strength: POWER. Lineker will learn to find his range in the second round and start to penetrate Dillashaw’s unorthodox defense. Midway through the third round he will catch T.J. backing up and end the fight on the feet with a brutal series of punches, kicks, knees and elbows against the cage. Lineker by third-round TKO.
Wale wanaonijua kibinafsi wangesema mimi ni mtu mwema, mpaka univuke sana, kama, kwa mfano, ikiwa wewe kuwa mada ya ripoti ya uchunguzi ninayofanya kazi, au nishtaki kwa $25 milioni. Wakati mwingine naweza kuchukua vitu kama hiyo kama ishara labda hautaki nijue wewe ni nani na unafanya nini nyuma ya milango iliyofungwa ili kukandamiza watu wanaofanya kazi kwa bidii.
Wiki hii, mtu fulani ambaye hata haniruhusu nimfuate kwenye Twitter (https://twitter.com/danawhite) alinikasirisha hadi mahali ambapo ningeweza tu kufikiria jambo moja la kufanya. Kwa sababu nimeorodheshwa rasmi kwa kila njia na shaba ya UFC, na hata nimewekewa maagizo ya kuzuia dhidi ya kuwasiliana nami moja kwa moja na Fertittas na mpiganaji wowote wa UFC, chaguo langu bora ni kuchapisha diatribe kali hapa nitapiga simu yangu “FUA FU” kwa Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe.
Nina hakika Bw. White hatachukua simu zangu au kujishughulisha na mahojiano moja na mimi. Hivyo, Nitalazimika kutulia kwa FU iliyoandikwa…na FU yenye viwango vingi na anuwai.
FU, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe… kwa wengi, sababu nyingi…nyingi mno kwa chapisho moja dogo la blogi kutenda haki, lakini tuseme Zaidi ya yote FU….
Kwa kile unachofikiria unajua kuhusu Holly Holm…
Hey, Dana, unataka kuzungumza juu ya yako “ufanisi” onyesho la ukweli “Kutafuta Pambano????” Nilikuwa kweli kutafuta vita nilipoangalia hiyo ukweli wa zamani “onyesho la shit” wakati ulitakiwa kumpiga box Tito Ortiz, lakini YEYE kichawi kuungwa mkono katika dakika ya mwisho.
Sasa, wewe, DANA “KUFANYA” NYEUPE, wanamwambia Holly Holm juu ya uamuzi UNADHANI hakufikiria vya kutosha??? Na sasa unafanya kama mtu aliyekasirishwa na Magurudumu yako kwa sababu una mafanikio mawili ya UFC 196 kufanya kazi karibu na kujua jinsi ya kufanya maana ya namna fulani.
Boo “ufanisi” hoo, rafiki.
Karibu kwa jinsi mambo hayaendi kama ilivyopangwa wakati mwingine katika biashara ya vita, chomo lisilo na shukrani.
Holly Holm Alikuwa Bingwa wa Bantamweight wa UFC wakati alimruhusu Meneja WAKE (sio Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe) kujadili vita vya Tate kwa niaba yake, na alijua (na meneja wake wa muda mrefu alijua, pia) kile alikuwa akifanya na kile alitaka. Na nadhani “ufanisi” nini, Dana? Alitaka kupigana.
Pole, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe, lakini Holly hakutaka kukaa juu ya “ufanisi” kando akisubiri Ronda Rousey ammalize “ufanisi” REMAKE NYUMBANI!
Holly alitaka kwenda kufanya kazi… lakini kwa bahati mbaya lazima afanye kazi kwa bosi ambaye hajui ni nini kuingia katika ofisi yake na kushughulikia mzigo wake wa kazi wa kila siku kwa ukakamavu kama huo, darasani, utu na neema.
Na nadhani labda anaangalia nyuma kidogo tofauti na wewe, Dana, bila “ufanisi” anajuta chochote kwa kumweka kabisa katika vita hiyo na kuambukizwa tu katika eneo lake moja la udhaifu katika vita ambapo angeweza kushinda pambano la raundi tatu. Labda ikiwa ungekuwa mpiganaji, Dana, unaweza kupata dhana hiyo nzima. Labda kupoteza katika kesi hii kunamfanya awe bora zaidi, nguvu, na kudumu zaidi kama msanii aliyechanganywa msanii wa kijeshi. Ni nani anayetoa lawama ikiwa inamfanya asiwe na soko machoni pako? Unajua nini kweli, hata hivyo?
BILA KUFANYA, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe, Holly kweli anamheshimu Miesha Tate na akafikiria itakuwa changamoto kupigana naye. Yeah, alipoteza, lakini jamani, alikuwa sahihi kabisa juu ya kuwa changamoto. Nadhani vita vitashuka kama moja ya vita kubwa zaidi katika historia ya MMA ya kike.
Sasa, kwanini usifungue yako “ufanisi” macho, Dana, angalia pambano tena, na acha kupiga kelele juu ya kile kinachopaswa kutokea katika ngome hiyo haujawahi kupigana ndani yako mwenyewe.
Shukuru una bingwa uliyelipa tu $92,000 katika pambana kulipa (kabla ya bonasi) kuchukua mkanda wa shirika lako kutoka kwa msichana ALIYETAKA KUSHINDA (na kulipwa $500,000 tu kuwa huko). Huenda isiwe vile ulivyotarajia, lakini wasiwasi unaohisi juu yake ndivyo UNAVYOTSIKIA kuhisi kwa kuwa kifuko cha kifuko kama hicho kwa wapiganaji ambao waliunda UFC.
Maswali yangu makubwa juu ya mada hii kwa Dana ni: Kwanini wewe upendeleo, punda mwerevu ambaye hawezi kujisumbua kumpa Miesha wakati wa siku KWA AJILI YA KAZI YAKE YOTE NGUMU? Kwa nini huwezi kutoa sifa pale inapofaa…pande zote mbili za pambano hilo? Kwa nini huwezi kufunga “ufanisi” juu ya kile unachofikiria Holly au usimamizi wake anapaswa kuwa nao au angeweza kungojea?
Sio nafasi yako kutazama nyuma 20/20 kuona nyuma na kutenda kama Holly na meneja wake walipaswa kwenda kwa Nostradamus wote kwenye pambano hili wakati kwa kweli haukuona ujanja huu unakuja, ama, wewe kung'aa yenye kichwa cha kuba.
Wapiganaji “ufanisi” kupambana, Dana. Ndio hao “ufanisi” fanya, ambayo unapaswa kujua, kwa kuwa nina hakika umewahi kuwa “ufanisi” meneja wa wapiganaji wa MMA mwenyewe. Ndiyo, hiyo ilikuwa miezi mingi iliyopita, lakini ungewezaje kusahau?
Wapiganaji hawakai juu ya punda wao kwenye ndege za kampuni na husimama kwenye podiums mbele ya waandishi wa habari siku nzima ili kupata “ufanisi” malipo kidogo ya shirika lako hulipa wengi wao. Wapiganaji wengi hawawezi kusubiri kuzunguka kwa shit kutokea au kwa mtu “thamani” ya kutosha machoni pako kuongeza na kupigana nao.
Wapiganaji wengine wanahitaji kulisha watoto wao. Wote wanahitaji kulipa bili zao na kwa kila kitu kingine kinachohusika na kambi za mafunzo, gharama za maisha ya kila siku, kusafiri na gharama yoyote ya bima ya matibabu haifuniki wakati wanapaswa kushughulikia majeraha yanayokusumbua. Yako mpango mzuri wa Reebok ilifanya iwe vigumu kupata wadhamini wengine wowote wa nje kusaidia kulipia kitu kama hicho kwa wapiganaji wengi, Dana.
Karibu uuze na usahau ulikotoka, Dana. Ulikuwa unajali zaidi wapiganaji. Sasa unatenda kama kupigana kwenye ngome ni kama kufanya nyingine yoyote 9-5 kazi. Sio. Ni “ufanisi” kazi ngumu.
Hivyo, yeah, Holly alichagua kupigana badala ya kusubiri Rousey kuwa tayari kwa mchezo wa marudiano. Na unafikiri anahitaji maoni yako sasa kwa kuwa kila kitu hakikufanya kazi kama ilivyopangwa kwa nyinyi wawili?
FU, Dana.
Anaumia vibaya sana kuliko wewe, na ninaweza guaran-effing-tee hiyo.
Oh…na…kwa njia…wapiganaji wanawajibika zaidi kwa ukuaji na mafanikio ya shirika la UFC / Zuffa kuliko ulivyowahi kuwa. Na hayo ni mazungumzo ya kweli, wewe tajiri kidogo na fimbo juu ya punda wako kwa sababu haukuwa mzuri katika maisha yako kuwa na vita vyako rasmi.
Hivyo, pitia tata ya Mungu na ujifunze kuheshimu wapiganaji wako WOTE, sio wale tu ambao unataka kuona wanashinda kwa sababu unaweza kufikiria unaweza kufanya kazi nao vizuri au unafikiria watahamisha shirika katika mwelekeo bora. Heshimu juhudi, sadaka na maumivu wapiganaji wako WOTE hupitia kila siku na kufikia mahali wanafika. Huo mkanda uliouweka kiunoni mwa Miesha ULIPATA, na usifikirie kuwa ni “ufanisi” baridi kuita ukweli kwamba Holly Holm alikuwa na ujasiri wa kumkabili Miesha Tate “kosa.”
Ni pete mashimo, haswa wakati ningefikiria kuwa kukupa kipaza sauti kuzungumza juu ya MMA wakati wote lilikuwa KOSA kubwa zaidi katika mchezo huo, kipindi! Mtu yeyote ambaye angejaribu kumwangusha bingwa wa zamani chini ya kigingi kwa njia hiyo katika shirika lake mwenyewe hastahili kutambuliwa kama rais wa shirika hilo.
Huna kidokezo ni nini hasa kupigana, na ukosoaji wako wa Holly Holm unaniambia huwezi kuelewa akili iliyomwongoza kuchukua pambano la Tate na sio kungojea mwaka bila kazi kwa Ronda “ufanisi” Amka kuwa tayari kuonekana kwenye moja ya maonyesho yako ya thamani.
Hivyo, FU Dana White kwa kumtibu bingwa wako wa zamani kama yeye ni mjinga ambaye hajui kudhibiti kazi yake mwenyewe bila wewe kumpumbaza mjinga wako, kichwa kipara ndani yake. Faini ya Holly bila ushauri wako, na anamwamini meneja wake, ambayo inaweza kuwa kitu ambacho hujui, lakini kwa watu wengine ni ukweli wa kufanya biashara na watu halali.
FU, Dana kwa kuwa balozi masikini wa mchezo, kutowaheshimu wapiganaji waliotoka damu (na wakati mwingine hupata majeraha ya maisha yote) kwako na mchezo, na kudharau kabisa na kushindwa kuelewa ni nini inachukua kweli kuwa mpiganaji mtaalamu ambaye kwa kweli anashindana na wapiganaji wengine…
Je! Unakumbuka siku ambazo ilibidi utulie kwa kuwa mwalimu wa mazoezi ya chini ya ndondi kwa sababu mkufunzi wako wa ndondi Boston alikupiga kofi sana sikio mara moja? Hujawahi kuwa na pambano moja la ushindani katika maisha yako, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na hiyo ni UKWELI WA NYARAKA!
Je! Unawahi hata kutazama nyuma katika siku hizo kabla ya Fertittas iliyolishwa kijiko kukusaidia kukata tamaa yako, ubinafsi, punda wa kujiona katika nafasi ya RASMI YA UFC MOUTHPIECE?
Je! Unazikumbuka hizo “nywele” siku ulipopuliza $40 milioni ya fedha za Fertitta ili kutekeleza “Hadithi ya Zuffa” wakati wakidai sifa kwa shaba ya UFC ilihalalisha mchezo huo na kuidhibiti yote kwa yako “ufanisi” nafsi? Kana kwamba sio mpiganiaji mmoja au mtaalamu mwingine yeyote wa tasnia ambaye alitangulia MMA kabla ya kutumbukiza miguu yako yenye tamaa ndani yake ilikuwa na uhusiano wowote nayo?
Uko mahali tofauti sasa, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na ni mahali pa udanganyifu. Kama kwenye sayari ya mbali unayoishi, watu kweli wanakuamini, uaminifu, kweli “ufanisi” ujue ni nini haswa kuwa “ufanisi” mpiganaji? Je! Unaamini kwa kweli wewe kwa namna yoyote unaweza kujua KWELI hisia hiyo?
KWELI?
Unajua mpambanaji ni nini, sio wewe, Dana? Mpiganaji ni mwanamume au mwanamke ambaye ana ujasiri wa kujitolea katika vita visivyo na silaha dhidi ya mwanamume au mwanamke halisi badala ya kukosoa tu juu na chini wavulana na wasichana ambao wana ujasiri wa kusimama kutoka kwa mwanadamu mwingine wakati akijua na kuingiza ndani kuwa lengo linalokubalika ni kuangamizana kimwili.
Mpiganaji, kwa maneno rahisi zaidi, ni “anayepigana.” Na hebu tuwe wazi juu ya moja “ufanisi” kitu, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, Najua wapiganaji, na WEWE si mpiganaji.
Wewe si kama mpiganaji, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na wewe kamwe “ufanisi” itakuwa. Wewe ni dhaifu sana, wote kimwili na kiakili. Mpaka tutakapoona unapitia kambi ya mazoezi ya wiki sita na kisha uingie kwenye ngome dhidi ya mtu na kumpiga punda, hatupaswi kuwa na kusikiliza moja damn “cana,” “lazima,” au “willa” kutoka kinywa chako cha mahindi juu ya kile unafikiria juu ya utendaji wa mpiganaji wowote au mchakato wa kufanya uamuzi. Watu hao wana ujasiri wa kufanya kile USICHOFANYA mwenyewe, na unapaswa kuheshimu hiyo.
FU Dana Nyeupe…Kwa kutowatambua wapiganaji wa kweli kama Miesha Tate na Nate Diaz ambao wanaendelea nayo bila kujali nini na KAMWE wanaonekana kupata HESHIMA yako ya mwisho….
Nate Diaz alijitokeza kupambana na Conor McGregor kwa sababu. Hakuwa na chochote cha kupoteza, na hakutishwa hata kidogo. Yeye famoulsy alienda kwenye runinga na Fox Sports 1 kwenye skrini iliyogawanyika na Conor kabla ya pambano hilo la uzani wa uzito wa juu na kusema kwamba nemesis yake tayari ilikuwa imesongwa mbele, “na viwete viwili.” Diaz pia alikuwa na silika kamili ya kuongeza kwa aibu kwamba hasara za kuzisonga za McGregor zilitokea, “kama wiki iliyopita.”
Diaz alimpiga Conor kwenye mchezo wa majadiliano ya kichekesho muda mrefu kabla hajawahi kumpiga chini na kutelezesha chongo hiyo shingoni. Vyombo vya habari vilivyoundwa na pambano hilo la freakshow linaweza kuwa limekomesha kuongezeka kwa biashara yako kubwa, ujasiri, bingwa wa joka mwenye vichwa sita, lakini iliunda monster mpya kwa wakati mmoja. Na yeye ni chuki ya Reebok, scowling, kuapa, Stockton-kumpiga Mama-F $ # mfalme MNYAMA ambaye hajali kile mtu mwingine anafikiria juu ya kile anachofanya au anasema.
Unaweza kudhani Diaz na tabia yake ni “mbaya kwa biashara,” lakini nadhani ushindi wake ndio kitu bora zaidi ambacho kingeweza kutokea kwa nyinyi nyote mnaotumia punks zinazoendesha UFC. Inathibitisha mara moja na kwa yote kwamba haudhibiti ulimwengu wa MMA.
Nate Diaz alienda bila heshima na sifa kwa kuwa painia wa MMA na askari mzuri wa UFC kwa muda mrefu sana. Uchungu ulianza na kuchemka ndani yake, na nilipenda kila sekunde yake kuiacha imiminwe katika mahojiano ya baada ya vita baada ya kuzima shoka nje ya Conor hadi bloke ya Ireland ilipiga bomba “ufanisi” nje na kumwacha Dana White akimiminika kwa usingizi kwa mawazo ya kuwa na bongera kumpongeza mtu ambaye amekuwa adui zaidi kuliko mtu wa wakubwa “timu.”
Nguvu zaidi kwa Nate na wazimu wote, kukasirika, katika-uso wako Diaz kaka aina huko nje kwenye UFC ambaye atapambana na Dana “ufanisi” Moto mkali wa White na mazungumzo zaidi ya ujasiri na mazungumzo yao wenyewe. Wanaweza kusema kila wakati, “Nilijifunza kwa kukutazama, Bald baba!”
Ama Miesha Tate, anastahili heshima ya kweli na kupongezwa kwa kuwa champ sasa baada ya kujiondoa kwenye mkeka mara mbili mbele ya hasara kubwa kwa Rousey. Kudos kwa Tate kwa kuendelea na kazi yake na bila kukoma akilenga kupata na hiyo armbar ya Rousey mara moja na kwa wote.
Ingawa Miesha hakuwahi kutatua shida hiyo ya uwasilishaji wa Rousey, kujaribu kwa gharama zote kupata ufa mwingine kwenye ukanda uliolipwa gawio katika UFC 196. Tabia yake ya kuacha kamwe ilimwongoza kwa fursa ya maisha, na yeye alitumia herufi kubwa juu yake. Sasa, Dana, lazima ulipe mwanamke huyu mchanga kile mashabiki wake wengi wangesema alikuwa anafaa zamani.
Na sasa lazima umtendee Tate kwa heshima na shukrani kwa mara moja katika maisha yako ya kutoshukuru, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe. Najua lazima itakuuma sana kumpa mwanamke huyu mchanga sifa ambayo amefanya kazi ngumu sana, kwa sababu labda aligusa ujasiri wakati alikuita hapo zamani kwa kuwa mtu wa kweli asiye na ujinga na asiye na heshima wewe ni kweli. Alikuwa sahihi, na ulikuwa umekosea juu ya jinsi alivyo mzuri katika kupigana. Halafu tena, je, wewe pia haukukosea juu ya wanawake wanaopigana kwenye ngome, kipindi?
Hivyo, HUTAKI kuwa mpiganaji, Mr. Nyeupe? Kisha kaa kando na uwaache watu ambao HAWATAKI kuwa wapiganaji waende kupigania wewe ili uweze kupanda ulimwenguni kwa ndege yako na kutenda kama unajua nini “ufanisi” unazungumza wakati unaposimama mbele ya kipaza sauti kuelezea wanariadha wa kweli wa mchezo huo na kile wanafanya ili kujipatia mapato katika sanaa ya kijeshi iliyochanganywa.
Mstari kutoka Dana ambao unanijulikana zaidi kama BS kamili katika dhihaka hii yote ni huu:
"Ni kijana wa zamani wa ndondi ambaye anadhani yeye ni mwerevu na sivyo,”White alisema juu ya Fresquez [Meneja wa Holm]. "Ninajisikia vibaya kwa Holly kwa sababu sijui ikiwa anajua alichopoteza."
Nina mengine mawili tu “ufanisi” maswali kwako Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe…
1.) Ni nini kinachokufanya ufikiri wewe uko katika yoyote “ufanisi” msimamo wa KILA kujua au kuelewa ni nini Holly Holm alipoteza usiku mwingine? Mbali na mikono mbaya ya poker na tani za heshima, kitu pekee ambacho umewahi kupoteza ni akili yako.
2.) Je! Nukuu yako ya backhanded juu ya meneja wa Holm haielezei tabia yako mwenyewe nzuri zaidi kuliko ile ya Mr.. Fresco?
NA…ikiwa tu baada ya kusoma haya yote bado ANAhitaji sababu nyingine ya kuwa na nyama ya ng'ombe na Baldfather:
Barua ya muda bingwa wa dunia, Amanda Serrano (24-1-1, 18 KO ya) kutoka Puerto Rico, na yake mkufunzi / meneja, Jordan Maldonado kufikiria ni disrespectful sana kwa ajili ya ndondi jamii, matamshi yaliyotolewa na Edmond Tarverdyan, mkufunzi wa UFC Dunia Champion, Ronda Rousey katika www.mmafighting.com.
“Najua yeye anaweza kufanya hivyo,” Tarverdyan aliiambia MMA Kupambana, “Najua anaweza kushinda ndondi duniani cheo. Ronda spars na mabingwa ndondi duniani kwamba Punch njia ngumu kuliko Cyborg,”, Tarverdyan pia aliongeza kuwa, “Ronda hajawahi kupoteza raundi katika mazoezi. duru. Pamoja na ndondi duniani mabingwa”.
“Dhahiri Rousey ya mkufunzi hana elimu yoyote kuhusu michezo ya ndondi. Yeye ni mpiganaji mzuri sana katika Octagon, na mimi kwa kweli kumpongeza yake kwa kila kitu yeye amefanya. Wapinzani wake hawezi sanduku na Ni rahisi kuangalia kubwa lakini wakati wanakabiliwa na high quality bondia na kuchomwa nguvu kama mimi mwenyewe, amini mimi, mambo ni gonna mabadiliko. Katika ndondi pete, turubai itakuwa eneo lako la faraja”.
Kuhusu mapambano Rousey ya Jumamosi iliyopita, ambapo yeye alimshinda Bethe Correia katika 34 sekunde, Serrano alisema, “Kama ndondi hatua ya maoni, yeye anaonekana kama rookie Amateur mpiganaji, kutupa kukwepa makonde pana sana na hakuna cordination. Nikasikia kwamba Cyborg hayuko tayari kuja chini kwa mgawanyiko nyepesi kupambana Ronda, lakini siwezi kwenda hadi 135, na tunaweza kukaa ndondi mechi hivyo siwezi kuthibitisha mkufunzi wake vibaya. Niliwahi nilipokwenda mgawanyiko nyepesi, na alisafiri hadi Argentina kwa jina dunia vita. Mwishoni, Matokeo ni kwamba nikawa kwanza kabisa Puerto Rican kike bondia wa alitekwa cheo dunia katika madarasa uzito wawili”.
Meneja Serrano na mkufunzi, Jordan Maldonado alisema kuwa “hatuna changamoto mitindo mingine mapigano. Sisi kuwakilisha ndondi na tunataka kupata baadhi heshima. Sisi ni inapatikana kwa sparring yoyote wanaweza wanataka au ndondi mechi, ili tuweze kuonyesha Edmond Tarverdyan jinsi vibaya yeye ni juu ya ndondi”.
Agosti 15, 2014, Serrano alisafiri hadi Argentina kwa uso WBO Lightweight Dunia Champion Maria 'Tily’ Maderna, ambaye wakati huo, alikuwa na mafanikio cheo ulinzi tatu, lakini hakuweza kushughulikia uchokozi wa Puerto Rican nguvu puncher, ambao ulimalizika kupambana katika duru ya sita kwa njia ya mtoano.
Pamoja na ushindi huu, Serrano akawa wa kwanza Puerto Rican kike bondia kushinda vyeo dunia katika tarafa mbili (130-135).
Serrano ya kwanza cheo utawala alikuja katika Septemba 2011 wakati yeye knocked nje Kimberly Connor katika raundi ya kwanza na kuwa IBF Dunia Champion katika featherweight mgawanyiko super.
Ronda Rousey (11-0) na Bethe Correia (9-0) mapenzi kichwa cha habari UFC 190 katika bantamweight cheo wanawake bout kwamba ni uhakika wa kutoa fireworks. Hizi wapinzani wawili watapigana katika mpinzani ya nyumba nchi, lakini Rousey ni nyota duniani kote ambaye yupo katika orodha ya Epic hadi sasa katika kazi yake MMA. Correia ni underdog nchini mwake mwenyewe, lakini yeye pia ni mshambuliaji undefeated ambaye angeweza kutoa Rousey matatizo kama armbar haina kuja kucheza.
Correia alifanya baadhi hotuba isiyojali kuhusu Rousey kufanya kujiua kuongoza hadi vita hii. Kujiua ni kidonda somo kwa CHAMP, ambao waliona baba yake kuchukua maisha yake mwenyewe wakati yeye alikuwa mdogo. Rousey tangu aliahidi “kuwaadhibu” Bethe walipo kukutana katika ngome usiku wa leo.
Rousey ni perfectionist, wazi na rahisi. Tu wakati unafikiri yeye hawezi kupata yoyote bora, yeye mshangao wewe na haina tu kwamba. Correia ni mgumu-kuzungumza na ujasiri mpiganaji, lakini yeye ni tu mahali pa karibu ngazi Rousey ya. Kama yeye ana nafasi yoyote wakati wote, ni katika raundi ya kwanza. Rousey si kuangalia kwa ajili ya kuwasilisha haraka kama sisi ni kuamini kwake alikiri nia ya kuumiza Correia ni kweli. Correia inaweza kutumia kufikia na nguvu-kuchomwa yake uwezo wa njuga Rousey mapema na kubisha yake nje, lakini hiyo ina maana kwenda kwa toe na bingwa ambaye ni umeonyesha kiasi-kuboreshwa fora katika kipindi cha mapambano yake ya mwisho chache.
Utabiri: Angalia kwa Rousey kurudi kwenye ahadi yake na kumaliza vita hii mapema, kama hisia zake itachukua tena na kuacha wake kutoka kufikiri sana kuhusu kuchora hii moja nje. Yeye atakuwa tu Wade katika, kutupa chini na kutembea nje ya raundi ya kwanza na TKO mwingine na kuongeza mafanikio yake yote kuwasilisha. Yeye atakuwa smash Correia ya big pua wazi na judo toss mpinzani kwa kitanda ambapo yeye itabidi karibu show na ardhi ufanisi na chupa.
Tukio ushirikiano kuu makala Mauricio Rua (22-10) vs Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (21-6) katika rematch ya mapambano yaliyotokea chini ya PRIDE bendera ya Januari 2005. Rua alishinda mapambano ya kwanza na uamuzi usiojulikana. Wakati huu, wote wapiganaji ni muda mrefu uliopita mkuu wao, na Rua inaingia ngome na kushinda moja tu kati ya nne vipindi vya mwisho wake. Nogueira pia ina ulemavu kwa kuwa yeye kuja katika zaidi ya mwaka mmoja baada ya mapambano yake ya mwisho, ambayo ilikuwa upande mmoja TKO hasara kwa Anthony Johnson ambayo ilidumu tu 44 sekunde.
Utabiri: Rua si kama nzito mitupu kama Johnson, na Nogueira lazima kupata kisasi yake katika mapambano haya kwa kugonga nje Rua katika mzunguko wa pili au ya tatu. Nogueira itakuwa na harakati bora kichwa na upande wa utetezi katika rematch, na Rua tu hana mafanikio yoyote ya hivi karibuni dhidi ya majina yoyote kubwa. Yeye ni katika juu ya kichwa chake katika vita hii, na “Minotouro” kinaenda kumpeleka katika kustaafu.
Antonio Nogueira Rodrgio (34-9-1) Pia mapambano juu ya undercard dhidi “Skyscraper” Stefan Struve (25-7). Hii lazima bout kusisimua, na Mark kuwinda ilionyesha kuwa Struve ni rahisi kukabiliwa na haymakers. Unaweza Nogueira kutumia udhaifu kwamba, au itakuwa Struve kuonyesha yeye ni hadithi muuaji wakati huu nje?
Utabiri: Nogueira kuja katika na uzoefu wote katika bout hii wakati Struve ina physicality. Ni alisema kuwa kubwa wao ni, vigumu kuanguka, lakini Struve ni ubaguzi. Anatakiwa kuwa na uwezo wa kuchukua faida ya vijana wake na wakati wake kwa muda mrefu mbali na ngome kushughulikia majeraha na matatizo ya kiafya. Yeye nje-mgomo Nogueira na kupambana mrefu katika kwanza raundi mbili, hatimaye kumaliza Nogueira mbali na matata combo mapema mwaka wa tatu.
Mengine mambo muhimu makubwa kwenye kadi hii ni pamoja na wanawake MMA mapambano kati Jessica Aguilar (19-4) na Claudia Gadelha (12-1) na mapambano kati ya Heavyweight Soa “Hulk” Palelei (20-4) na Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva (18-7-1).

Given that it’s tax season, it’s a good time to remember that are there three guarantees in life: death, taxes and Ronda Rousey once again showing why she is the best female fighter on the planet with a first-round demolition of her opponent.
Rousey’s performance at UFC 184 last month was her finest to date. She submitted Cat Zingano, widely regarded as Rousey’s biggest challenge, katika 14 sekunde. While Rousey was aided by an absolutely horrible strategy by Zingano, her virtuoso performance led to another discussion of who has what it takes to dethrone Rousey. It also led to a ridiculous conversation of whether or not Rousey could compete against and defeat male fighters in the UFC’s bantamweight division. The less time spent on that absurd notion that accomplishes nothing but trying to discredit the great fighter Rousey is, the better.
Bila shaka, the first name that always comes up is Cris “Cyborg” Justino, the Invicta FC featherweight champion. She is expected to drop to 135 pounds for a fight with Invicta this summer before moving on to a fight with Rousey. Hata hivyo, Cyborg attempted a drop to bantamweight last year and abandoned those plans. So I wouldn’t hold my breath on the long-awaited grudge match between Rousey and Cyborg happening anytime soon.
Rousey recently expressed a desire to fight Bethe Correia, ambaye alipiga wachezaji wenzake wawili wa Rousey "Wanne wa farasi" na amekuwa kumwita Rousey tangu wakati huo. Jessica Eye pia amedai madai yake ya kupigwa risasi, lakini hakuna hata mmoja wa wanawake hawa anayeleta tishio kwa Rousey. Wakati wa chanjo ya baada ya vita ya UFC 184, Daniel Cormier aliandika wazo la mwenzake Miesha Tate kupata ufa wa tatu huko Rousey.
Licha ya ukweli nadhani trilogies inapaswa kuhifadhiwa tu wakati kila mpiganaji ana ushindi juu ya mwingine, Sioni sababu kwa nini mara ya tatu itakuwa haiba kwa Tate. Wakati yeye ndiye mwanamke pekee anayepita zaidi ya raundi ya kwanza na Rousey, Tate ametamba kama mpiganaji wakati Rousey amepata nafuu. Ikiwa wawili hao wangepigana mara ya tatu, Sioni sababu ya kuamini matokeo yatakuwa tofauti.
Kwa hivyo hii inaondoka wapi? Kwa maoni yangu, amesafisha mgawanyiko wa watoto wa kike wa UFC. Hakuna mtu ambaye analeta tishio la kuaminika kwake. Ikiwa Zingano alirekebisha mkakati wake na akapokea risasi nyingine huko Rousey, anaweza kuwa na nafasi ya kushinda. Zaidi ya hapo, ikiwa Rousey aliamua kwenda juu na kujenga juu ya kazi yake ya filamu inayoendelea, Sidhani kama mtu yeyote angeshikilia dhidi yake.
Rousey kwa sasa yuko mbio sawa na mbio ya Anderson Silva juu ya mgawanyiko wa uzani wa kati wa UFC. Alitawala kila mtu katika njia yake na isipokuwa pambano lake la kwanza na Chael Sonnen, ilifanya ionekane rahisi. Mapigano magumu zaidi ya Rousey hadi leo yalikuwa dhidi ya Liz Carmouche, wakati alikuwa na Rousey nyuma ya choke ya uchi uchi katika raundi ya kwanza ya pambano lao 2013 before Rousey was able to escape and secure another armbar victory.
Silva’s reign atop the middleweight division came to an end when the previously unknown Chris Weidman came along and showed no fear and took the fight to Silva. Maybe that’s what needs to happen with Rousey. She needs to find an opponent who will get right in her face, give her no quarter and take the fight to her. Zingano attempted that at UFC 184, but her overzealousness ended up costing her dearly.
Until Rousey finds her own Chris Weidman, we can add another superlative to the many that are already attached to the women’s bantamweight champion: cleaner. Rousey is fresh out of worthy challengers to her crown, a task she accomplished by cleaning out her division.
