FNU Kampsport Show: Quitters Never Win

Denne sendingen av FNU Combat Sports Show starter med en av ukens mest kontroversielle historier. Mange sportsforstandere er raske til å latterliggjøre Guillermo Rigondeaux for å bøye seg ut av sin suksessfulle boksekamp med Vasyl Lomachenko sist lørdag. ESPNs Stephen A. Smith kastet bort tid under sendingen, rippe inn i den cubanske bokseren for å nekte å komme ut til den syvende runden i den ensidige kampen. Teddy Atlas, forvist fra rapporteringspliktene ved siden av ham takket være hans uttalt syn på boksekorrupsjon og hans slitende behandling av mindre erfarne kommentatorer, kom til Rigos forsvar. Atlas kranglet med Smith fra sitt eget hjemmestudio, forklarer i utgangspunktet at alle er mennesker. Tom, Tony og Rich tilbyr alle sine egne synspunkter på situasjonen og deres tanker om “slåss.”

Vi sporer også siste nytt innen kampsport, Sammendrag den siste ukens begivenheter og forhåndsvisning av konkurrerende UFC- og Bellator-arrangementer denne lørdagen. Vi berører til og med flere historielinjer som involverer Floyd Mayweather Jr.. som gjør rundene i sportsmediene denne uken. “Penger” hevder at han kan tjene opp til en milliard dollar hvis han går inn i UFC for en tre-fire kampavtale. Vel, lykke til, Floyd. Jeg hører CM Punk vil ha en ny kamp.

Lytt til den todelte sendingen nedenfor.

We’re Back! FNU Combat Sports Show Returns!

After a couple weeks off, we come back this week to talk about the combat sports world. Tom, Tony and Rich catch up and discuss the events of the past couple weeks and preview upcoming boxing and MMA action. Tom, Tony and Rich pay special attention to last weekend’s awesome UFC card with two of the best fights of the year in MMA to chat about. Eddie Alvarez’s masterful performance against Justin Gaethje was exciting enough, but add in the performance of Yancy Medeiros against Charles Oliveira and that put this card into a category all its own. We also discuss the latest boxing news and Miguel Cotto’s retirement fight. Listen to the broadcast in the player below.

 

FNU Kampsport Show: Tony, Tom and Rich Discuss All Things Combat Sports

Tom, Tony and Rich are back this week with a great show! We feature lots of engaging discussion about mixed martial arts and boxing, from Connor McGregor’s slapping a Bellator official to Deontay Wilder wanting to end Anthony Joshua’s career. We also chat about Dana White getting into boxing and Bellator’s 8 Man Heavyweight tournament. Again we get back to the nagging question of where are the legends in MMA, and we also cross over to where are the legends in boxing?

 

 

 

 

 

FNU Kampsport Show: Special Guest Angel Manfredy

Tom, Tony and Rich are back together again for another episode of the FNU Combat Sports Show. This week’s combat sports show touches on a variety of subjects, from UFC 216 to Andre Ward’s retirement. We also feature a special interview with former pro boxer Angel Manfredy.

 

Show Opening:

Angel Manfredy Interview:

FNU Kampsport Show: Canelo/GGG controversy, Featured Guest Eddie Barraco

This episode of the FNU Combat Sports Show features special guest Eddie Barraco. Eddie was a fighter who last connected with us when MySpace was still cool (sjekk ut Eddie’s Facebook page Here), and it’s been too long. We cover a wide range of issues and catch up on what he’s been up to as a first class MMA trainer in Las Vegas. Tom, Tony and Rich also discuss the abhorrent judging of Adelaide Byrd, who scored the Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin fight 118-110 in favor of Canelo, who by most accounts lost a close fight at best. Additionally we touch on Ana Julaton’s transition from boxing to MMA, Conor McGregor’s upcoming appearance before congress, and former heavyweight champion boxer Michael Moorer’s new job punching out looters in Florida.

We cover a wide range of combat sports topics in this week’s episode.

We also make our predictions for Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin. We recap Stefan Struve’s TKO loss to Alexander Volkov and preview UFC’s upcoming fight night event as well.

FNU Kampsport Show: Post-Fight Reaction to May/Mac, UFC Fight Night Preview, Sign Tony’s Petition to Throw out First Pitch at a Phillies Game

This week’s combat sports show covers a wide range of topics. Tom, Tony and Rich discuss the dud of a boxing match that proved McGregor needed about six more months ofproper fookintraining to be more competitive in. Mayweather cruises to 50-0, but Rich questions if that really eclipses the true 50-0 circumstances that would have made Rocky’s unbeaten streak more impressive. After all, Mayweather did not possess an active title belt at the time of the win and theMoney Beltshouldn’t count as a true championship he was defending. Rocky retired undefeated, owning the belt at 49-0. To eclipse Rocky’s record Floyd would need to have a world title belt or multiple belts at the time of his 50th win being recorded. We also discuss everything else going on in the combat sports world, except Ronda Rousey and Travis Browne getting married.

FNU Kampsport Show: UFC 214 breakdown, Nobody Likes Dana White, Tom and Tony break down Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. Marriaga

This week’s combat sports show is a split personality situation. We had technical difficulties getting all of us together for the show, so we recorded Tom and Tony chatting with each other on Thursday night. I’ve added my portion today. It all worked out to some incredible insight about Mayweather vs. McGregor, Dana White’s growing problem with disgruntled stars in the UFC, Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. Marriaga. We also break down Jon Jones beating Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 and the implications for a Brock Lesnar showdown in the Octagon. It’s far from likely, but it’s intriguing. We also touch on the retirements of Juan Manuel Marquez and Wladimir Klitschko.
