Uasi wa Reebok Uliweza Kubadilisha MMA kama Tunavyoijua

Acha maoni

By: Rich Bergeron

Unajua vita vya Reebok vinawaka moto wakati watu wanapoteza masharti ya mpango huo kwa mfano na kwa kweli:

Fumbo La Beki Mzito wa UFC “Hasira” Jury kweli alitupa gia yake ya Reebok kwenye takataka hivi karibuni kutoa hoja kwenye chapisho la Twitter ambalo lilikuwa na Mkuu wa UFC Honcho Dana “Bald baba” Nyeupe analia mchafu.

Nini kilikuwa kikielezea zaidi juu ya tukio, ingawa, Ilikuwa “Mjomba Dana” kutoingilia kati kumuadhibu mpiganaji huyo aliyefadhaika kwa sababu ya kutomheshimu dhahiri mshirika mkuu wa biashara wa UFC. Huu ulikuwa wakati wa maji kwa “Uasi wa Reebok.”

Je! Dana angefanya nini, baada ya yote? Myles alikuwa kweli akivuta ukurasa kutoka kwa kitabu cha uuzaji cha Rais wa UFC mwenyewe. Jury alikuwa akikasirisha uso wako kuuza hoja yake. Dana hufanya hivyo kila siku.

Wapiganaji wa hali ya juu wanamsugua Bw. Nyeupe njia mbaya siku hizi linapokuja suala la mpango wa Reebok, na ingawa alitoa Jury na Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone kupita kwa kukosoa kwao hivi karibuni, aliuma nyuma dhidi ya anapenda Brandon Schaub.

Kunaweza kuwa na aina tofauti ya fataki mnamo Julai wakati mpango huu mbichi unapoanza kutumika rasmi na wapiganaji wote ambao hawakubaliani na Schaub na Jury wataanza kutambua mtazamo wao mfupi.. Baadhi ya wapiganaji hao wa UFC wanaweza hata kujuta kwa kutokujiunga na wenzao kwenye laini isiyo rasmi ya umma wakati inaweza kuwa muhimu.

Sehemu mbaya zaidi juu ya fiasco hii yote ni wakati. Tume ya Biashara ya Shirikisho imeripotiwa tena kuchunguza UFC baada ya mfululizo wa malalamiko ya hali ya juu ya hatua za kupambana na uaminifu zinazotembea kupitia korti za raia.

Ni ngumu kutuliza ikiwa kukuza nguvu zaidi ulimwenguni kwa kukuza sanaa ya kijeshi kunapita mipaka yake kwa njia ambayo wanajaribu kudhibiti kila nyanja ya kazi ya mpiganaji.. Inaonekana kama mpango mbaya sana kubadilishana pesa kidogo na haki ya kupigana chini ya bendera ya UFC kwa damu, jasho na machozi inachukua kukaa juu ya mchezo wa MMA siku hizi. Hata kuwa katikati ya pakiti kwenye UFC ni changamoto kubwa. Wapiganaji wanapaswa kuanza kujiuliza wakati matuta yaliyokusanywa yanapata michubuko, kutengwa, mishipa inayopasuka, mifupa iliyovunjika na mshtuko huwa mbaya sana kwamba pesa haijalishi tena.

Ni nini kitatokea wakati wimbi la mawimbi la wapiganaji wa zamani wa UFC watakapogundua kuwa utukufu wa kuwa umepigania mioyo yao kwa mashabiki sio kulipa bili na / au kupeleka watoto wao vyuoni? Ni nini hufanyika wakati chanjo ya matibabu ya kuisha inakwisha na hadhi yako ya mpiganaji mashuhuri haimaanishi chochote kwa madaktari na hospitali kukulipa ada ya kukasirisha na ya angani kukufanya uwe na afya ya kutosha kuishi hadi uzee?

Muulize Marc Coleman. Sio nzuri.

Kadiri mapigano ya UFC au usawa wa ndege unageuka kuwa hauna uhuru wa kuwa mjasiriamali na hakuna uwezo wa kujenga chapa yako mwenyewe, zaidi Simu ya Scott Coker itaendelea kulia. Angalau huko Bellator, wapiganaji bado wanaweza kuwa na wadhamini wao binafsi kwenye kaptula zao.

Hawatupi wapiganaji wao wote nje kwa kupoteza mapigano machache mfululizo, ama. Hawashutumu hadharani wapiganaji wao kwenye mikutano ya waandishi wa habari baada ya vita kwa kutoweka onyesho. Wanalipa kile wanachoweza, na wanajitahidi kadiri wanavyoweza kuzingatiwa kama mshindani wa UFC.

Phil Davis anaweza kuwa wa kwanza wa kasoro nyingi za UFC ambazo zinaweza kuanza kuingia ikiwa mpango huu wa Reebok utaondoa mapato na fursa nyingi kama inavyosikika kama itakavyokuwa..

Kwa kweli nimekata tamaa kwamba Viacom haifanyi kushinikiza zaidi kupata wapiganaji zaidi wa UFC na mikataba yenye faida zaidi, lakini hakuna biashara inayotaka kupoteza pesa. Ni ngumu kwa Bellator kupata mapato makubwa kwa malipo ya uwekezaji wao kwa wapiganaji wao kutokana na jukumu la kufanya uzalishaji wao wenyewe kwa televisheni ya bure. Hata hivyo, wakati huo huo, Usimamizi wa sasa wa Coker na Bellator unaonekana kujali zaidi kidogo juu ya watu ambao wanapigana chini ya bendera yao. Wanajua bora kuliko mtu yeyote kwamba wafadhili wako wanaweza kukuweka hai.

Wapiganaji ambao wanathamini uhuru wao na wanataka udhibiti kidogo juu ya kazi zao wanaweza kuanza kuona mashindano tu ya UFC kama malisho ya kijani kibichi baada ya mkataba wa kipekee wa nguo hii kubwa. Kile kinachopaswa kuonekana kama hatua kuu mbele kwa UFC inaweza kweli kuwakilisha hatua tatu nyuma kwa shirika hili ambalo tayari linapambana na mapigano yaliyofutwa na kuahirishwa kwa sababu ya kuongezeka kwa majeraha ya mafunzo kwa wapiganaji wa hali ya juu..

Kwa kweli hatuwezi kusahau Bingwa wa zamani wa Uzito wa Nene wa UFC Jon Jones anadaiwa kugonga SUV ya kukodi kwenye gari la mjamzito na kuvunjika mkono kabla ya kukimbia eneo kwa miguu. Huu bado ni mfano mwingine mbaya wa UFC kutowajali vya kutosha wapiganaji wao. Je! Hawangewezaje kumtambua jamaa huyu alikuwa na shida ambayo inahitajika kushughulikiwa kwa muda mrefu kabla ya tukio hili la kusikitisha kutokea? Je! UFC inawezaje kuhalalisha kutokuwa na upimaji wao wa dawa bila mpangilio kama michezo mingine ya kitaalam? Dawa haramu ziko sawa vipi kwa mpiganaji kufanya nje ya mashindano hapo kwanza? Ni nani aliyefanya sheria na mwanya huo ulio wazi ndani yao?

Georges St. Pierre amekuwa mmoja wa wakosoaji wengi wa sauti wa UFC mbele ya upimaji wa PED. Bingwa huyo wa zamani anaendelea kukaa pembeni baada ya moja ya mapigano yenye adhabu zaidi katika kazi yake kumfanya atangaze kustaafu kwake na mlango ukiachwa wazi tu ufa. Mpana tu, mpango kamili wa upimaji wa madawa ya kulevya unaweza kumrudisha sasa, St. Pierre anashikilia.

Hata wapiganaji kama Ronda Rousey wanakasirika kidogo na hatua za kudhibiti kazi zinazotumiwa juu yao na wakubwa wao wa vigogo. UFC haitamruhusu Ronda aonekane katika hafla kadhaa zilizoandikwa za WWE. Kwa sababu sketi hizi hudumu kwa muda mrefu kuliko mapigano yake halisi haimaanishi kuwa ni tofauti sana na kile anachofanya katika kazi yake ya sinema. Wakubwa wake wa UFC wako sawa na kufuata majukumu ya sinema ya vitendo, kwa nini sio mieleka feki kidogo? Labda ni ukweli kwamba WWE iliiba chapa ya Tapout na kuichukua nje ya ngome na kuingia kwenye pete ya kupigana. Labda ni wivu kwamba WWE ina aina ya shabiki ambayo huwafanya kuwa tishio halali, na ni aina ya mashabiki UFC inahitaji sana. Labda ni ukweli kwamba UFC ilipoteza nafasi yao ya kubakiza huduma za Brock Lesnar tena na bado wanapata.

Sababu yoyote, UFC inabana zaidi na zaidi juu ya nini wapiganaji wanaweza na hawawezi kufanya ndani na nje ya ngome, na huenda zaidi ya mieleka bandia. Mikataba inazidi kuwa na kikwazo kwa kila njia.

UFC pia ilitumia kukuza hali ya hewa ambapo hakuna mpiganaji atakayethubutu kusema neno chafu juu ya usimamizi au usimamizi wowote wa biashara.. Adhabu hiyo ingekuwa mbaya zaidi kuliko faini ikiwa Dana angeamua kukupa matibabu Brendan Schaub kwenye vyombo vya habari.

Kulalamika, na ungeitwa mwoga au bum. Wewe sio mchezaji wa timu, mashabiki wengine wasio na ujinga bado watasema wakati unapoweka shingo yako nje wakati wa mkataba wa UFC. Hata hivyo, hali ya hewa hii haitoshi kuzuia wimbi hili jipya la maandamano ambayo inaweza kukua hadi kuwa crescendo ya kutisha kabla au baada ya mpango huu wa Reebok kuwa ukweli.

Marafiki wasio na akili ambao hukosoa wapiganaji kwa kusema kwa masilahi yao wenyewe hula tu kutoka kwa mkono wa Dana White, hata wakati anatoa sumu ya panya. Ni jambo la kuchukiza kusikia na kuona watu wengi wakikubaliana na mvulana ambaye hakuwahi hata kupigana na bout rasmi ya amateur ya aina yoyote badala ya kumsikiliza mtu ambaye aliweka bidii kushindana katika pambano moja la ngome.

Linapokuja suala la mambo ya nini inamaanisha kweli “kuwa mpiganaji wa F # $% ing,” Dana anaweza kutoa hotuba zote zenye kinywa anazotaka, lakini ni wapiganaji halisi ambao walimwaga damu kwa miaka chini ya bendera ya UFC ambao walitoa hotuba hiyo maana halisi na sauti kwa mashabiki ambao sasa wanaabudu ardhi Dana anatembea juu. Kwa sehemu kubwa, hawa mashabiki wanapenda White tu kwa sababu yeye huzungumza na kujibugua kama wao. Bado, mpiganaji mmoja wa UFC niliyemuhoji miaka iliyopita aliniambia kuna kitu kibaya na mchezo huo wakati mtu anayejulikana zaidi katika MMA ni Dana White. Sikuweza kukubali zaidi.

Uhuru sio neno la kuchukuliwa kwa uzito, na uhuru wa kusema sio huru kama ilivyokuwa zamani. Unasaini kwenye laini iliyotiwa alama ili kuingia kwenye ngome ya UFC, na unapaswa kucheza na sheria zao, hata zile ambazo hupendi au haukubaliani nazo. Hiyo ilikuwa mbaya vya kutosha wakati huo ndio wapiganaji wa shida tu waliokabiliwa. Sasa, it’s much worse because of the Reebok deal and the ramifications and ripple effects it will cause.

Some people forget this deal also alienates other long time sponsors of the UFC and its fighters. Think of all those apparel companies who will not be able to sell their products now in association with any official UFC event. The upcoming UFC Fan Expo situation is a prime example of how the UFC just doesn’t seem to care about the businesses and backers that helped put them on the map in the first place.

The people behind this powerhouse MMA league will alienate anyone or any group of people to make a buck off the backs of better men than themselves. This Reebok deal is living proof of that. Even if all the money from the Reebok partnership does go to the fighters, all those businesses that end up locked out of fighter sponsorship deals will have to line up to sign exclusive contracts with the organization itself. Either that, or they will convert to Bellator supporters and follow burned UFC fighters to that organization.

Suddenly that second fiddle is sounding like it could steal the show, and my prediction that Bellator could fail looks premature and presumptuous now.

“So you want to be a f$%^ing fighter?”

Let me give you Scott Coker’s number.

Brandon Halsey Defeats Kendall Grove Via Technical Knockout Vacates Bellator Middleweight Title Due To Missing Weight

Acha maoni

TEMECULA, Calif. (Mei 15, 2015) – While Brandon “Bull” Halsey (9-0) can no longer say he’s Bellator MMA’s Middleweight World Champion, he’s still managed to show his talent with a one-sided destruction of proven veteran Kendall “Spyder” Grove (21-15).

 

The contest served as the feature main event of Ijumaa “Bellator: Halsey vs. Grove” card at Pechanga Resort & Casino katika Temecula, Calif.

 

Halsey nearly finished the fight in the early going, moving to an arm-triangle choke that would have finished a lesser opponent, but Grove somehow battled through the effort. Bado, it was a one-sided round for the former champ.

 

Grove was able to avoid such a precarious position in the second, but he was still forced to be on the defensive throughout most of the frame. With a high-paced wrestling attack, Halsey simply pushed his way to the floor and enjoyed top position for almost the entirety of the round.

 

The pattern continued as the fight wore on, with Halsey simply overpowering his opponent and constantly earning himself the dominant position. Grove briefly threatened with an armbar in the fourth frame, but Halsey simply yanked his limb free and pounded away with punches shortly after until he earned the TKO win at the 2:25 mark of the frame.

 

The undefeated Halsey, who was stripped of the Bellator MMA Middleweight World Title for failing to make weight, will look to again earn the belt in his next appearance.

 

“I was my own worst enemy. It was how I performed. He didn’t throw anything at me that I wasn’t ready for. I was just trying to tough through the injury. I had to tough it out and come out with the victory,” Halsey said.

 

“Obviously, you want to be as dominant as possible. I just felt like I couldn’t explode through my combinations or explode through the fight and finish how I wanted to. But like I said, you’ve got to deal with adversity, and I did it the best I could,” Halsey continued.

 

“I learned my lesson. I thank Bellator. I apologize to the commission. It’s unprofessional not to make weight. Hakuna udhuru, but anybody knows that it’s hard to cut weight with an injury. The belt’s just a decoration, so I’m still the champ in my eyes. No one has taken the belt from me.”

 

In the night’s co-main event, former Bellator MMA Bantamweight World Champion Eduardo “Dudu” Dantas (17-4), of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, took a step toward another shot at the title with a hard-fought decision victory over the hard-hitting Mike “Marine” Richman, of Rose Mount, Kutoka.

 

While Richman showed excellent takedown defense throughout the 15-minute affair, Dantas’ work rate helped him earn the favor of the judges. Constantly pressing and looking to bring the fight to the floor, Dantas was able to just edge out Richman on the cards, 29-28 according to all three officials.

 

“I went out there and fought the way I trained to fight,” Dantas said after the win. “I knew Mike Richman was going to come with everything, but I wanted to win this fight and get back to the title. The only fight that makes sense next is for the title.

 

In a welterweight contest, Fernando “Menifee Maniac” Gonzalez (24-13), of Menifee, Calif., scored a thrilling, come-from-behind victory over “Curtious” Curtis Millender (7-2), ya San Bernardino, Calif.

 

With Millender enjoying a six-inch height advantage, the smaller Gonzalez struggled to score points in the first two rounds. But when the fight hit the floor in the third, Gonzalez latched onto a guillotine choke and earned a tap from his opponent at the 1:14 ya raundi ya mwisho.

 

“Mimi nina 4-0 sasa hivi,” Gonzalez said after the win. “That’s one step closer to the title, and I’m excited to get in there and mix it up with whoever is next.”

 

With the result, Gonzalez now boasts four-straight Bellator MMA victories and put himself in line for a potential shot at the promotion’s Welterweight Title.

 

In the night’s first main-card matchup, matarajio undefeated Darrion “Wolf” Caldwell (7-0), of Rahway, N.J., used a superior wrestling game to outwork more experienced opponent Rafael “Popo” Silva (22-5), of Lajes, Brazil, en route a unanimous-decision victory.

 

With Caldwell scoring takedowns throughout the matchup, Silva looked for submissions when available, but he simply couldn’t find the necessary hold to work past his opponent’s defense. Badala, Caldwell kept his pressure high, and judges awarded him the fight, 29-28 juu ya kadi zote tatu.

 

After the victory, Caldwell made it clear he’s clearing his way to a shot at the Bellator MMA World Title.

 

“I don’t think there are any fighters out there as explosive as me at 135 paundi, or as fast,” Caldwell said. “Hatimaye, I’ll be able to prove that.”

 

In the night’s final preliminary bout, Guam’s Joe Taimanglo (21-6-1) scored a third-round knockout of Mexico’s Antonio Duarte (18-6).

 

Zaidi ya hayo, featherweight matarajio Jordan Parsons (11-1), ya San Diego, Calif., earned a third-round decision win over the previously undefeated Brazilian Julio Cesar Neves Jr. (30-1).

 

Katika mwanga Heavyweight mashindano, Virgil Zwicker (14-4-1), of Temecula, Calif., earned a first-round knockout win over Razak Al-Hassan (12-5), ya Milwaukee, Wisc.

 

And in the night’s first fight, Ricky “Sniper” Rainey (11-3), of Gastonia, N.C., earned a second-round knockout win over Jessie Juarez (22-10), ya Torrance, Calif.

Former Bellator MMA World Featherweight Champion Daniel Straus looks to work his way back to the belt at “Bellator MMA: Unfinished Business” against undefeated challenger Henry Corrales

Acha maoni

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (Mei 5, 2015) – Former Bellator MMA World Featherweight Champion Daniel Straus (23-6) begins his trek back to a world title when he meets undefeated promotional newcomer and former King of the Cage titlist Henry Corrales (12-0) at June’s blockbuster “Bellator MMA: Unfinished Business” tukio.

 

The contest serves as the fifth and final Spike TV-broadcast main card matchup of the star-studded fight card.

 

Featuring one of the most anticipated heavyweight fights in the history of the sport with Kimbo Slice vs. Ken Shamrock, “Bellator MMA: Unfinished Business” takes place Friday, Juni 19, katika St. Louis’ Scottrade Center na airs kuishi kwenye Spike TV.

 

Tiketi kwa ajili ya “Bellator MMA: Unfinished Business,” ambayo kuanza saa tu $30, sasa ni juu ya kuuza katika Ticketmaster.com.

 

With the night’s featured bouts now complete, additional preliminary contests will be announced shortly.

 

A consensus pick as one the best 145-pounders on the planet, Straus is anxious to rebound from a disappointing January loss to current Bellator MMA Featherweight Champion Patrick “Pitbull” Freire. A member of American Top Team, Straus was ahead early in the fight and appeared to be on his way to reclaiming the belt he lost in 2014 before suffering a knee injury that limited his capabilities and eventually led to his late submission with 11 seconds left in the fourth round.

 

Sasa kikamilifu zinalipwa, Straus plans on working his way back to a title bout as quickly as possible, and a victory on a high-profile card like “Bellator MMA: Unfinished Business” would certainly help him stake his claim as the division’s No. 1 mgombea.

 

Fighting professionally since 2011, Corrales began his career primarily as a Brazilian jiu-jitsu stylist, as witnessed by his five consecutive submission wins to begin his career. Hata hivyo, he’s since worked diligently to improve his striking game, and of his past six victories, four have come by way of knockout. Corrales boasts an unblemished professional mark through the first 12 contests of his MMA tenure, including recent wins over big-show veterans Jerod Spoon and Seth Dikun.
