Doug “Yamato” Usher stops
David Mundell in 2nd ümber
Yoislandy Izquierdo landed the kick of the night

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 14, 2018) – Georgia keskkaalu Doug “Yamato” Usher ja Yoislandy “Kuuba” Vasakule were knockout-winners this past Saturday night in the “Tee M-1-ni: USA” main event and co-feature, vastavalt, at Global Mall in Nashville, Tennessee.

 

 

 

“Tee M-1-ni: USA” was presented by M-1 Global USA and Angel Fight Promotions and aired live on worldwide pay per view.

 

 

 

“Rage,” a hybrid ring/cage, made its American debut in Music City.

 

 

“What a great first event for M-1 Global USA,” M-1 Global USA CEO Mike Merriman öeldud. “There were so many obstacles to overcome and lessons to be learned, but the show still went well. The fighters worked hard and the staff worked diligently. I couldn’t have asked for more. We are working on our next show and some possible partnerships that should make a lot of fans smile.”

 

 

 

Usher (10-3-0) overcame a relatively slow opening round to knockout his late replacement opponent, David “Redneck” Mundell (9-4-0), with a powerful right-left combination for his sixth consecutive victory, which snapped Mundell’s three-fight win streak.

 

 

 

Vasakule (12-4-0), fighting out of Charlotte (NC) by way of Cuba, took care of business early, koputab tähelepanu Damond Pickney (15-11-0), of Hot Springs, Arkansas, less than a minute into the opening round by way of a vicious head-kick.

 

 

 

Virginia bantamweight Tony Gravely (14-5-0) ruined the courageous comeback of previously undefeated Brazilian fighter Bruno Ferreira (8-1-0), who was making a comeback after successfully battling cancer the past three years. Gravely’s aggressive ground-and-pound attack resulted in a quick first-round technical knockout win.

 

 

 

Georgia flyweight Cee Jay “Autobot” Hamilton (13-6-0) ja California raskekaalu Cody “Põder” Goodale won three-round decisions, vastavalt, against Puerto Rican Abdiel “Nightmare” Velazquez (8-6-0) ja Nkemdirim “Kim” Oti (2-4-0)

 

 

 

Kentucky poolkaalu Brandon “Juggernaut” Kelluke (9-7-0) registered a first-round, ground-and-pound TKO win over Jaakob “Tikk-takk” McClintock (9-3-0), Arizona, while Chicago welterweight P.J. Karbid used the same method to defeat previously unbeaten Tennessean James Conway (3-1-0) Rahvuskarika kaks.

Bruno Ferreira võitleb vähi vastu; Naaseb pärast 3 aastat tegevusetust võidelda “Tee M-1-ni: USA”

Jäta kommentaar
August 11th kogu maailmas Pay Per View Nashville'ist

 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Juuli 16, 2018) – Võitmatu Brasiilia MMA võitleja Bruno Ferreira (8-0-0) naaseb tegevusele august 11 pärast viimase kolme aasta edukat võitlust vähiga.

 

 

Praegu 30-aastane Ferreira võtab endale alati ohtliku Tony Gravely (12-5-0), Virginia, juures “Tee M-1-ni: USA”, esitasid M-1 Global USA ja Angel Fight Promotions.

 

 

 

“See on minu jaoks väga eriline,” Ütles Ferreira. “Jumal tänatud. Ma olen nii kaua oodanud, kuni see juhtub. Inimesed võivad eeldada, et olen võrdne või parem kui oma viimases võitluses.

 

 

 

“Vähiravi oli väga raske. Mul oli kolm operatsiooni ja mitu keemiaravi tsüklit, mis oli nii tugev ja halb, et iga tsükkel – kestab esmaspäevast reedeni – oli neli kuni viis tundi. Tundus, et olen suremas. Püüdsin ema ja naist enne igat operatsiooni rõõmustada, aga hirm minu sees oli tohutu. Kui ma üles ärkasin, Ma tänasin Jumalat, et olen ellu jäänud.”

 

 

 

“Tee M-1-ni: USA” jõuab otseülekandesse ülemaailmse tasulise vaatega Nashville'i Global Mallist, Tennessee. Hübriidne rõngaspuur, “Rage”, debüteerib Ameerikas.

 

 

 

Integreeritud spordimeedia levitab “Tee M-1-ni: USA” Põhja-Ameerikas kaabli kaudu, satelliit- ja digitaalne maksa-vaatamise kaudu iN Demand, Vubiquity, DIRECTV ja DISH Ameerika Ühendriikides, nagu ka Rogers, SaskTel, ja Shaw PPV Kanadas, ja otseülekannet kogu maailmas FITE.TV rakendus ja veebisait (www.fite.tv), alates 9 Pärastlõunal. JA / 6 Pärastlõunal. PT, soovitusliku jaehinnaga ainult $19.95.

 

 

 

Georgia keskkaalu Doug “Yamato” Usher (9-3-0) nägu Reggie “Reguleerija” Sulg (14-6-0), Florida osariigist, põhiturniiri. Kaasomandav üritus sobib Venemaa kergekaallaga Vadim Ogar (6-3-0) Põhja-Carolina, vastu Yoislandy “Kuuba” Vasakule(11-4-0).

 

 

 

Kolm aastat tagasi diagnoositi munandivähk, Ferreira tõus MMA maailma tippu rööbiti tema eluohtliku meditsiinilise probleemiga, mis ohustas tõsiselt tema võitlusspordikarjääri. Raske keemiaravi ja kolm operatsiooni jätsid Ferreira mõtlema, kas ta jääb ellu, pole veel põhjust tülitseda veel kord.

 

 

 

Kuigi ta jätkas treenimist, küll palju madalama intensiivsusega, pärast ravi lõppu suurendas ta treeningu tugevust, kuid ta oli kaotanud treeningrütmi. Piiratud dieet võimaldas Brunol tugevana tagasi tulla ja nüüd teeb ta Ameerika debüüdis vähijärgse naasmise.

 

 

 

Ferreira tunnistab seda küll, ühes etapis, ta ei arvanud kunagi enam tülitsevat. “Oli mõni hetk,’ Ta selgitas,, “eriti kui ma selle esimest korda avastasin. Mul oli vennaga vestlus, et minu MMA-karjäär on läbi. Ta ütles,: 'Rahune maha, viivitad sellega lihtsalt natuke aega.’ Lootus tagasi võidelda andis mulle jõudu, aga mul läks vahel meelest, et ma ei parane oma puhkeajast. Tänu Jumalale tulin tagasi ja täna hakkan realiseerima oma suurimat unistust.

 

 

 

“Kogu maailmas vaatamise eest tasumise eest võitlemisel on veelgi erilisem maitse, sest kõik inimesed, kes mind aitasid, saavad seda vaadata ja näha mitte ainult ja mul läheb hästi, Ma teen seda, mis mulle kõige rohkem meeldib….võitlus!

 

 

 

“Ma tahan kasvada M-1 Globalis, tiitlivöö otsimisel, võitluseks elamine. Samuti tahan anda teistele teada, et vähk põeb, et see haigus ei lõpe alati surmaga. Neil peab olema palju usku Jumalasse ja nad peavad elama üks päev korraga. Ärka üles, aitäh; magama, aitäh. Kuulsin palju halba, aga ma ei andnud alla. Ole oma ime eest tänulik, Usun, et minu oma on juba juhtunud.”

 

 

 

Muud plaanipärased põhikaardivõistlused hõlmavad Gruusia kärbsekaalu C.J. “Autobot” Hamilton (12-6-0) vs. Floridia võitleja Abdiel “Nightmare” Velazquez (8-5-0), Kentucky poolkaalu Brandon “Juggernaut” Kelluke (5-6-0) vs. Jaakob “Tikk-takk” McLintock (9-2-0), Arizona; ja Tennessee poolkaalus James Conway (3-0-0) vs. P.J. Karbid(5-7-0), Chicago.

 

 

 

Esialgsed kaardiheited hõlmavad California raskekaalu Cody “Põder” Goodale (5-4-0) vs. Nkemdirim “Kim” Oti(2-3-0), Alabama, New Brunswick, Kanada kaalukaal Chris Johnson (5-6-0) vs. Jerrod “Hillbilly haamer” Jennings (2-1-0), Kentucky, ja Nashville'i lemmik Dwayne Herrelle (0-1-0) vs. pro-debüüdi kergekaaluline Kentucky Kegan Agnew.

HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy vastane allianss (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will crown its inaugural lightweight champion in July when the promotion makes its first visit to North Carolina.
Põhiturniiri LFA 17 will feature the inaugural LFA lightweight world title fight between the final RFA lightweight champion Thiago Moisés and regional kingpin Robert Watley . LFA 17 – Moisés vs. Watley takes place Reede, 21. juuli at the Grady Cole Center in Charlotte, Põhja-Carolina. Kogu põhikaardi otseülekande ja üleriigiliselt AXS teler 9 Pärastlõunal. JA / 6 Pärastlõunal. PT.
“LFA will crown its first lightweight champion at LFA 17 in North Carolina,” Väidetav Soares. “Thiago Moisés is one of the most dominant champions in RFA history and Robert Watley has won multiple regional titles on the east coast. I am excited to see these two proud champions face off for the inaugural LFA lightweight title on 21. juuli.”
Piletid LFA 17 – Moisés vs. Watley are available for purchase NOW. You can support your favorite fighter by purchasing your tickets through CrownTickets.com and selecting their name at checkout.
Moisés (9-1) is one of the most dominant champions in RFA history. This is a promotion that has sent champions such as Sergio Pettis, Pedro Munhoz, and Brian Ortega to the UFC. The 22-year-old Brazilian dominated in all four of his RFA fights, but his title winning performance at RFA 35 is perhaps the most memorable. Moisés utilized an ultra-rare Helicopter Armbar to submit David Castillo to capture the vacant title. Highlights of the submission went viral and he was subsequently nominated for “Submission of the Year” at the annual World MMA Awards in Las Vegas. Moisés then defended his title twice and was featured on Dana White: Lookin’ For A Fight during his first title defense. He is now looking to add the inaugural LFA lightweight title to his ever-growing list of accomplishments.
Watley (7-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect on the east coast. The Maryland native is currently riding a seven-fight win streak that has wreaked havoc along the eastern seaboard to the point that movie buffs are now looking to amend the famous quote from Wedding Crashers: “Crabcakes, Football, and MMA. That’s what Maryland does!” Watley is looking to win a third MMA title in four consecutive title fights. Aga, this will be the most prestigious title that he has vied for and he sees the LFA title as his proof that he his the undisputed top lightweight prospect in the sport. The surging Baltimore battering ram put the “harm” in Charm City and now looks to do the same further south as he heads to North Carolina to fight for the inaugural LFA lightweight tile.
Koostööd põhiturniiri LFA 17 will feature a heated border war and long-awaited rematch between top bantamweight prospects from North Carolina and Virginia, when Dylan Cala (5-1) looks to avenge the lone loss on his record against longtime rival Tony Gravely (9-4). Cala is a highly-touted prospect from “The Tar Heel State”. He is looking to defend his home turf and even the score against the only man to defeat him. That man would be Gravely, who is an NCAA Division I wrestler who grew up just north of the border in Virginia.
In the women’s bantamweight division, Alexa Conners (4-1) returns to the LFA Octagon after an exciting and triumphant performance at LFA 8. That bout served as the first televised MMA fight to take place in her home state of South Carolina. The 26-year-old now heads north of the border where she will welcome one of Brazil’s top female prospects to the Carolinas.
Talita de Oliveira (5-1) has competed five times in her native Brazil and once in Europe. Her most recent bout was a first round win in Poland, which took place one day after Conners’ most recent bout at LFA 8. The 30-year-old Brazilian submission expert is now set to make her North American debut against one of the division’s top American prospects as she faces Conners at LFA 17.
LFA 17 will also feature the promotional debut of Nathan “Mayhem” Maness (8-0), who is one of the top bantamweight prospects in the country. The 25-year-old regional champion is widely considered one of the south’s most promising talents. After the first two opponents he signed on to face withdrew due to various reasons, the third scheduled opponent is expected to be named soon.
