Pertunjukan kami minggu ini didedikasikan untuk Lou Duva (di atas kanan dengan co-host Tony Penecale). Lou meninggal awal pekan ini di usia lanjut 1994. Dia adalah teman baik Rocky Marciano, promotor dari 19 Juara dunia, dan seorang pria yang memiliki semua besi di satu api yang menyalakan hidupnya: tinju.

FORMER CAGE WARRIORS COMMENTATOR JOHN GOODEN SHARES HIS IRISH FIGHT NIGHT MEMORIES AHEAD OF CAGE WARRIORS’ RETURN TO DUBLIN

UNTUK SEGERA
Hari Selasa, February 28th, 2017

As we look forward to our long-awaited return to Dublin this weekend, the former voice of Cage Warriors remembers the raucous atmosphere of the Irish fight fans and recalls the moment he took a knee from a man who would go on to become the biggest star in the sport – Conor McGregor.

Before he started calling fights for the UFC, British play-by-play man John Gooden was the voice of Cage Warriors.

And nobody knows the passion of the Irish fight fans quite like John who, during the now-famous rise to prominence of Conor McGregor, ended up right in the thick of it with the legendary Irish fight fans during both of ‘The Notorious’ one’s Cage Warriors championship victories.

We chatted to Gooden at CW80 in London where he shared his memories of his Irish fight night experiences ahead of our return to Dublin this weekend for Cage Warriors 81.

I think my first taste was the Helix when Conor won his first world title,” he began.

I got injuredConor kneed me in the face! But I stayed here to live to tell the tale!

He jumped the fence. His fans were going absolutely bonkers, and I think if he didn’t go out, they were coming in. So strategically he did the right thing, although he sort of ran through me to get to them!

But Josh (Naik haji, Cage Warriors co-commentator) and I were covered in beer and it was just this melee of craziness. So that was really cool, because I can say I took a knee from Conor McGregorwhich he apologised for, demikian juga!

The Helix was an interesting venue. It was on different levels and the last time I was there the Irish were having mixed results. Then Conor came out and, as he does, rouses everyone and came away with the victory in the fashion that he did. That just put the capstone on the night and just made it celebratory.”

After that fight both McGregor and Gooden were UFC bound, where they would reunite in Dublin at the 3Arena for UFC Melawan Malam: McGregor v Brandao, an event that has gone down in folklore as one of the most raucous in UFC history.

I’ve been over to Dublin twice (with the UFC) but the first time in 2014 – McGregor-Brandaoit’s gonna be difficult to top that,” Gooden smiled.

The fans were SO good. The Irish fighters went 100%. They won, they won, they won and the crowd loved it. They got behind every single one and it was just a big celebration.

Going back there, it was a sensory overload and I’m gonna take that to the grave with me.”

That event has been held up as the standard by which all fight night atmospheres are now judged, but there have been plenty of examples of the Irish fans’ passion since then, whether it’s at home for a host of different events, or on the road supporting their heroes overseas.

And on Saturday night the Irish fight fans have the opportunity to cheer on their boys on home soil once again at Cage Warriors 81. With a host of Irish fighting talent set for action, including Karl Moore bidding to capture the vacant Cage Warriors light-heavyweight title against American Josh Clark, we’re expecting another party atmosphere at the 3Arena.

Tiket tersedia melalui Ticketmaster.ie, priced €98, €38 and €24, with ticket holders also able to attend a special meet and greet session with our special guest fighters Neil Seery, Nicolas Dalby and the newly crowned Cage Warriors Welterweight Champion Karl Amoussou.

Pertarungan akan disiarkan langsung di eirSPORT 1 in Ireland, BT Sport in UK and Ireland, and streamed worldwide on UFC Melawan Lulus.

UFC 209: Woodley vs.. Wonderboy dan Khabib vs.. Pratinjau dan Prediksi Ferguson

Oleh: Kaya Bergeron

UFC 209 Semakin dekat dengan dua pertarungan dinamis yang menjadi headline kartu, termasuk pertandingan ulang yang sangat diantisipasi menutup pertunjukan. Penggemar sangat ingin melihat kartu pertarungan yang solid untuk ditonton setelah beberapa peristiwa Bayar Per Tonton yang mengecewakan membuat mereka menginginkan lebih dalam beberapa bulan terakhir. Ini adalah kartu yang pasti bisa mengantarkan penuh aksi, Penggemar tontonan yang memacu adrenalin telah mengharapkan harga tiket masuk. Berikut adalah pratinjau dan prediksi saya untuk dua pertarungan blockbuster di bagian atas tagihan.

Stephen Thompson (13-1-1) mendapat celah lain di gelar kelas welter melawan Tyron Woodley (16-3-1) di acara utama. Bahkan pembuat peluang (Lihat M88 sportsbook untuk info taruhan lebih lanjut) mengalami kesulitan memprediksi bagaimana pertandingan ulang yang sangat mahal ini akan berjalan. Woodley masuk sebagai tim yang sedikit diunggulkan +110 kepada Thompson -140.

Masih, sang Juara nyaris menyelesaikan pertarungan pertama di ronde keempat. Daripada melanjutkan dengan pendekatan ground and pound yang kuat melawan Thompson yang bermasalah, Woodley beralih ke upaya mencekik yang gagal sebagai gantinya. Thompson mampu mengatasi badai dan menambah hasil imbang, tetapi dia juga memenangkan tiga dari lima putaran pada kartu skor. Para ahli yang mengatur garis taruhan jelas menyadari hal ini dan memasukkannya ke dalam perhitungan mereka.

Bisakah Woodley menempatkan dirinya pada posisi untuk mendapatkan kemenangan sistem gugur kali ini atau akankah Thompson membuat penyesuaian yang tepat untuk menang di setiap putaran kali ini?

Ramalan: Stephen Thompson membuat satu kesalahan mencolok di pertarungan pertama yang membuat Woodley memiliki peluang besar untuk menang dengan KO. Woodley memilih tempatnya dan membuat pertarungan menjadi kompetitif, tetapi dengan kedua petarung mengetahui begitu banyak tentang satu sama lain sekarang, dia mungkin tidak dapat mengulangi atau meningkatkan penampilannya di pertarungan pertama.. Sementara Itu, Thompson adalah ahli taktik yang terampil, dan dia akan fokus pada pengendalian kandang kali ini. Dia akan menggunakan serangan jarak jauh, pertahanan yang luar biasa, dan gerakan konstan untuk mencegah Woodley melakukan kerusakan besar kali ini. Woodley tentu saja memiliki kesempatan untuk menenangkan semua orang yang ragu dengan satu pukulan, tetapi Thompson adalah tipe petarung yang mungkin tidak memberikan kesempatan kepada sang juara untuk melepaskan tembakan itu.

THOMPSON MENANG DENGAN KEPUTUSAN YANG TIDAK BERANI

Acara co-main ini akan mengatur panggung untuk kembalinya Conor MacGregor ke kandang UFC. Superstar Irlandia pada akhirnya akan menghadapi pemenang dari acara utama bersama UFC 209: Khabib Nurmagomedov (24-0) vs. Tony Ferguson (22-3). Pertarungan ini berpotensi mengacaukan acara utama, Terlepas dari kenyataan bahwa Khabib adalah a -205 favorit untuk Ferguson +165 peluang untuk menang. Kedua petarung memiliki momentum yang cukup bagi mereka untuk mendapatkan tembakan gelar tanpa bertarung satu sama lain, tapi itu tidak membuat pertarungan ini menjadi kurang menarik di atas kertas. Ferguson adalah 12-1 di UFC dengan satu-satunya kekalahan saat melawan lawan terakhir Khabib: Michael Johnson. Ferguson kalah dari Johnson 2012 dengan keputusan bulat sementara Khabib memasukkan Johnson melalui Kimura di putaran ketiga UFC mereka 205 bentrokan November lalu.

Kedua petarung memiliki kekuatan yang sama-sama mengesankan. Khabib mengalahkan banyak lawannya dengan keterampilan gulat yang tajam untuk menyamai kemampuannya dalam menyerang dan menyerahkan diri.. Sambo dan judo juga merupakan pokok dari pendekatan intens Nurmagomedov dalam pertarungan kandang. Dia sangat berpengetahuan luas sehingga dia memiliki angka yang sama (8) penyerahan, keputusan dan kemenangan T / KO, dan semua keputusannya menang dengan suara bulat.

Ferguson sedang dalam sembilan kemenangan beruntun. Dia lebih merupakan striker volume, dan dia menggunakan tinju yang sangat baik untuk memaksakan keinginannya pada lawan yang dia kuasai sejauh ini. Dia juga berpengetahuan luas seperti Nurmagomedov dan dapat menggunakan serangan luar biasa itu untuk mengamankan kuncian pada lawan yang tertegun.. Dia punya 8 kiriman untuk pergi dengan 9 T / KO dan lima keputusan.

RAMALAN: Ferguson mungkin sedang dalam performa yang luar biasa saat ini, tetapi Khabib benar-benar mendominasi setiap lawan yang pernah dia hadapi dalam karier MMA-nya. McGregor mungkin benar-benar mendukung pertandingan ini sehingga dia dapat memiliki waktu ekstra untuk menegosiasikan pertandingan tinju dengan Floyd Mayweather, Jr. sementara kedua pesaing ini menyiapkan pertandingan ulang yang tak terhindarkan. Namun Begitu, hubungan cukup langka di UFC yang satu di sini sangat tidak masuk akal. Kemungkinan besar pertarungan ini berakhir dengan satu petarung di atas kanvas, keluar dingin atau terlalu linglung untuk melanjutkan. Semua tanda menunjukkan bahwa pejuang itu adalah Ferguson, meninggalkan MacGregor dengan prospek harus membuktikan keberaniannya dengan mengalahkan orang yang belum pernah bisa dikalahkan siapa pun sebelumnya. Tentu saja, apa pun bisa terjadi di kandang itu dan siapa pun bisa mengalami malam yang buruk di kantor, tetapi kesempurnaan sulit untuk diperdebatkan.

NURMAGOMEDOV OLEH TKO Putaran ke-2

Pertunjukan Olahraga Tempur FNU Menampilkan Ivan “The Beast” Baranchyk

John “The Beast” Baranchyk (15-0, 10 Biaya) bergabung dengan siaran malam ini untuk berbicara tentang nya perang baru-baru ini di ShoBox bersama Abel Ramos (17-2-2, 12 Biaya). Baranchyk meluncurkan upaya luar biasa di babak selanjutnya untuk membuat Ramos kehilangan profesional keduanya dan membuktikan dirinya sebagai pemain yang bersemangat., petarung tangguh. Beberapa ahli mengklaim pertarungan itu adalah salah satu pertarungan paling menghibur dalam 17 tahun sejarah seri ShoBox. Tom, Tony and Rich discuss the fight, other highlights of Ivan’s career, and get Baranchyk to explain how his early start in Jiu Jitsu eventually led him to the Sweet Science. The 24-year-old is already solidifying his legend, which explains why he points to “Besi” Mike Tyson as one of his role models in the sport of boxing.

 

Tom, Tony and Rich also discuss the latest Mayweather/MacGregor news, an odd suspension of an MMA fighter for going after his opponent’s corner man, the calling off of Chris Brown vs. Soulja Boy, and Roy Jones Jr. re-establishing his goal of fighting Anderson Silva in a boxing match (he now wants it to be on the Mayweather/MacGregor undercard).

 

We also recap last week’s combat sports events and preview Bellator 173 and this week’s upcoming boxing matches.

Mayweather vs. MacGregor Hype Reaching New Heights

 

Oleh: Kaya Bergeron

Can a pro mixed martial artist beat a pro boxer is the kind of question that started the UFC in the first place, but now the wildly popular fight league seems to be trying to avoid that question entirely when it comes to a potential boxing match between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather.

Though recent reports indicated a deal was in the works with only a third party failing to agree on terms (most likely the UFC), it seems that the UFC brass knows this could be a lose/lose situation for the promotion. For one, Conor is almost guaranteed to lose the fight. Secondly, the purse he will command should be extremely hefty, which will mean he will demand the same kind of money for every fight after this one. This is why UFC President Dana White put his ceiling at $25 million for McGregor to fight Mayweather.

 

The UFC could end up paying dearly for letting this fight happen. It could make McGregor much too popular and shift the balance of power from the UFC bosses to their star employee. Conor will be the one calling the shots from here on out if this boxing match happens, especially if it ends up being a $100 million payday forMystic Mac.

Just consider this segment on UNDISPUTED, starring Shannon Sharp and Skip Bayless:

 

The inevitable loss for McGregor would really be a huge win for the cocky, arrogant and outspoken fighter who seems like he actually believes he can pull off a miracle win. Even if he’s knocked out, beaten by a wide unanimous decision, or disqualified for engaging in illegal strikes, Conor stands to make enough money to potentially retire from MMA for good. It’s either that, or he could just continue in MMA with the stipulation that no fight purse in his future be any less than what he makes for the Mayweather bout. If Conor even shows the slightest bit of skill in the boxing ring, he could also end up being the combat sports version of Bo Jackson and maintain a career as a two sport athlete in the future. All of this is simply bad for the UFC as a whole, as they will at best have to share one of their top talents and will have to pay him outrageous fees to keep him fighting in their Octagon.

It would be much much smarter for Conor fans to play some casino games at คาสิโน MarathonBet than it would for any of them to put down money on their hero to win this fight. Whatever odds this fight does finally generate in Vegas, McGregor is sure to be a huge underdog that will tempt his fans to make the bet on the slim chance of a huge payout. It just isn’t a good idea considering the lack of experience Conor has as a boxer and the invincibility of Mayweather in the final years of his boxing career.

What is crystal clear is that Mayweather wants only one fight to leave the comfort of retirement, and McGregor is the only man who will face him in that fight. The fact that this should be a walk in the park is not lost on Floyd. There’s no downside to trouncing McGregor. Floyd has been itching to prove MMA fighters as a whole don’t have the punching power or prowess that a boxer of his caliber has. He will no doubt get his chance, but don’t ask the UFC to pay astronomical record numbers to facilitate a fight of this magnitude if it means raising the fight pay bar to a level they can never recover from if they want to keep their ultimate superstar on the books.

 

McGregor can talk all he wants, and sports pundits will eat it up like candy. People will either have some insane belief that he can pull off this walk on water routine, or they will want to pay to see his ego crushed in defeat. Either way, this bout could reap huge rewards for both fighters. People WILL pay to see it, even if it does prove to be a complete and utter disappointment.

Karl Amoussou: So am I.

DO YOU FEEL ANY PRESSURE GOING INTO THIS FIGHT?

MY: The only pressure I feel is the pressure I put upon myself to put in the best performance I can.

KA: Pressure is always present during a fight, I know I’m going to have the best version of Matt Inman facing me and he’s going to be ready for the best version of Karl Amoussou. No problem with the pressure, I’ll deal with it.

IS THIS A CAREER-DEFINING FIGHT FOR YOU?

KA: Yes this is definitely a career-defining fight. Now I have to be in the UFC. I belong in the UFC, I should be in the UFC already and after this fight I will definitely be there, tanpa keraguan.

I know what my goal is, I’m pretty sure Matt knows what his goal is and I think we have the same. We are both going to do our job and, on my part, I know exactly what I’m going to do. So there’s no need for animosity.

AKHIRNYA, HOW WILL THE FIGHT END?
