WMMAA President Vadim Finkelchtein Leading sport into future

MONTE CARLO, Monaco (Mawrth 14, 2016)- World Mixed Martial Arts Association (WMMAA) Llywydd Vadim Finkelchtein, who founded the sanctioning organization in 2012, continues to lead WMMAA and the sport into a very bright future.
In four short years, WMMAA has alreadydeveloped into the strongest sanctioning body in the MMA world, hosting some of the sport’s most prestigious championships, as well as creating a highly respected culture in throughout sports worldwide.
Finkelchtein answered some pertinent questions below about WMMAA, its past and future, in addition to addressing the growth of mixed martial arts:
Can you tell us about you and your experience in Martial Arts?
VF: “I practiced judo when I was a kid. Back then there was no MMA whatsoever.

How did you first enter the world of MMA?
VF: “Yn 1995, I was offered an opportunity to sponsor an MMA event. That’s when I learned about and fell in love with no holds barred, or free-fight, as it was called then. Yn 1997, I organized my own event in Russia. The rest is history.

When did you first hear of MMA and what was your first impression? Did
you expect this sport to grow as much as it has today?

VF: “When I saw my first MMA event in 1995, I was amazed by its scale and how many people came to watch. People were genuinely interested. It was a whole other level and approach to a sports event. And I had seen a lot so I could compare empirically. I have always believed in MMA and expected it would eventually become the number one sport in the world, although back then no one would acknowledge MMA as a sport. Mae ein
athletes and fight teams had a hard time. They were not even welcome in sambo gyms to train there. It was a long and a hard way to change MMA’s image that was deemed as human cock fighting or closely related to organized crime. Thanks to the fact I have never had any relations to crime, when this sport landed in my hands in late 90’s, mae'n
helped greatly as we were able to turn the tide and after all these years to help governments to officially recognize MMA.

What is your function and main activities within WMMAA?
VF: “I founded the World MMA Association in 2012 because I felt the time had come. MMA is the fastest growing sport and it’s time to start developing it at another level, giving it a new but essential dimension. Due to its popularity, thousands of fans of all ages started practicing in Mixed Martial Arts. At that moment, I had accumulated a vast network in multiple countries. I knew countless numbers of activists across the globe, so the start was destined to happen. From the get-go over 20 countries joined the WMMAA family. At this moment there are over 60 countries and counting.

How would you assess WMMAA’s progress during its three year existence?
VF: “WMMAA is still in its infancy. Ydw, we lack experience and financing, and MMA is a new kind of sport in many regions. But I have to say that we’re growing and the last World Championship in Czech Republic proved it. Over 40 national teams flew to Prague with over 200 athletwyr. The level of competition evolved so much. The organizational level was also high and we are thankful to our Czech MMA Federation for its great work. This World Championship proved there is demand for MMA around the world.

What are the main goals of WMMAA and what are the main obstacles facing
the association?
VF: “The goals are to encourage as many countries as possible to join the WMMAA
teulu, to facilitate them in their struggle to get MMA recognized in their respective countries, helping them develop amateur MMA. There are countless obstacles but I firmly believe we’ll prevail.

Were there any countries that stood out or surprised you?
VF: “China surprised me a lot. They joined WMMAA recently but since then they’ve shown solid results. Hefyd, I enjoyed the performance of Latin American teams. It was their debut but one Colombian kid (Andrey Roa Ruiz Dumar) won a bronze medal and that was great.
Unwaith eto, Russia won the majority of the medals due to amateur MMA there developing with extremely rapid strides ever since early 2012. Fedor Emelianenko is the main locomotive and driving force in Russia. The selection process there is just unbelievable. You can’t imagine how many steps one needs to make in order to become the champion of the Russian Federation. The City Championship, Oblast Championship, regional and national championship. Each of these events consists of at least three fights, which means that a Russian champion will probably have had at least won 15 fights under his belt by the time of the European or World Championships. Only truly the best get to the top. Imagine this: around 7,000 athletes participated in the aforementioned events in 2015.

What are the 2016 mid-term goals for WMMAA?
VF: “The normal routine is to hold the Asian Championship, Pan-American Championship, multiple referee and judge seminars and certifications, then prepare for the European and, consequently, the World Championship that will coincide with the annual Congress.

Can you describe what 2015 was like for WMMAA?
VF: “I was amazed with the Asian Championship in Tajikistan with thousands and thousands of fans at the stacked football stadium. I enjoyed watching how many people turned their eyes to an amateur MMA event.

What words of wisdom would you like to share with the members of WMMAA family?
VF: “I’d ask all WMMAA members to adhere to the agreements and decisions we reached collectively. It pertains to the set of rules, judging process, equipment, unified rules, and youth sports development.
WMMAA keeps expanding, Fodd bynnag,, there are still multiple countries that are not yet WMMAA members. Why should any local Federation apply for WMMAA membership?
VF: “WMMAA is the strongest MMA organization there is. We plan to continuously hold regional and world championships and keep developing and evolving. Athletwyr’ ethical upbringing is also our target. We believe this sport can give so much to the world in various ways and we put a lot of effort into its development. We’ll gladly accept strong and worthy partners into our ranks.
We are truly an amateur association, although others may think we are not. The thing is it’s rather hard to verify the real records of MMA athletes. There is no official and ubiquitous database or instance that would provide 100-percentreliable and accurate information pertaining to the amount of fights under someone’s belt. Some amateur fights might be recorded as professional and professional fights as amateur, which was the reason for us canceling the previous rule of pro fight limitation for the time being, in order to develop a new system of fighterseligibility evaluation. We are working on that as we speak.

People keep asking: why should we use SportID and SportData. Can you
explain why it is so essential?

VF: “We are an official and credible sport. Our association ought to be transparent. These databases show the data on athletes, their statistics and numbers. They show the quantitative as well as qualitative growth of mixed martial artists. They facilitate in overseeing the championships registered in SportData, helping to broadcast them. Ymhellach, they contain so many functions that it would take me forever to discuss it. Just think of rankings, both individual and national, diffoddwyr’ profiles and so on. I need to remind everyone that, based on the Congress decision, the use of and
registration in these databases are mandatory for all our members.

Meet Tomas Yu WMMAA Vice President

MONTE CARLO, Monaco (Chwefror 25, 2016)- Cymdeithas MMA Byd (WMMAA) vice president Tomas Yu, o Albuquerque (NM), who is also president of the WMMAA Pan-American division, took time from his busy schedule to address questions about his MMA background and experience, the sport of MMA and WWMMA in particular.
Can you tell us about you and your experience in Martial Arts?
TY: “I’m from the generation that grew up watching 3 Ninjas,Ninja TurtlesI wanted to be a Ninja! I grew up practicing Tae Kwon Do in Mexico, all the way to my black belt. At age 18, I ventured to practice Aikido and Judo in El Paso, Texas. I loved learning and I always wanted to be a rounded student, which is why I always looked for different arts to offset the weaknesses of the other.
How did you first enter the world of MMA?
TY: “I was really looking for a place I could introduce my daughter to Martial Arts. I was looking for a more rounded self-defense Martial Art but not a fight club. I was introduced to the sport of MMA by a good friend and pioneer of the sport, Chris Luttrell. I was immediately bonded to the sport, since that is what at one point all Martial Artists are looking for.
When did you first hear of MMA and what was your first impression? Did
you expect this sport to grow as much as it is now?

TY: “I have been privileged to see the evolution of MMA since 1993 as a teenager, all the way to now, becoming the first Pan-American Division President in the most important Regulation Organization for MMA in the world.
What is your function and main activities within WMMAA?
TYMy biggest function is to introduce simple business principles to the sport of MMA and keeping Martial Art in MMA. What I mean by that is, the common denominator for every individual Marital Art are (Respect, Loyalty, Honor) and the mixture of martial arts should not represent what people perceive MMA is today. It should be a mixture of Respect, Loyalty and Honor. It should be a much more admired sport.
How would you assess WMMAA’s progress during its three year existence?
TY: “Wel, as an entrepreneur, I’m never satisfied, I always see ways to do things better but the reality is that, yn y 25+ years MMA has been evolving and becoming not just a mixture of Martial Arts but also a true blue sport. Many people have tried to add value to the sport with no real success until this past two years with the WMMAA.
What are the main goals of WMMAA and what are the main obstacles for the association?
TY: “This question has a long and complicated answer! The number one obstacle is pride, pride to admit that past performance or formulas to add value didn’t and won’t work. Pride to admit that working together will pave a new path. The number two obstacle, is UNDERSTANDING, understanding the big picture, like Micro and Macro economics really being two different worlds.
The sport or art of MMA is much more than what we see on television. There is a much deeper impact to society than pay per view.
How do you assess the third World Championship that took place in
Prague?
TY: “Moments like these are the ones that 3 years ago we would dream about. Wel, last year that dream came true… dros 40 countries participated in the beautiful city of Prague. I can’t explain the clash of emotions when you see and hear country after country being announced as they walk into the arena with their head held high as they carry their national flag.
We as an organization created Continental Presidents to be able to perform better follow through and also be more sensitive negotiating in different cultural environments. Our Europe and Czech Organizing Committee did a wonderful job.
Were there any countries that stood out or surprised you?
TY: “The fact they were there, that’s what really stands out! Some countries were participating for the first time. The level of mental competition for some countries was amazing. I can’t wait for the 2016 World Championships.
What are the2016 mid-term goals for WMMAA PanAm?
TY: “The number one focus for PANAM is the roll-out of our new initiative on ‘Global MMA Officials and Licensingto standardize the sport worldwide, but also standardize the officials looking out for the sport.
Can you describe what 2015 was like for WMMAA?
TY: “2015 was a year of foundations, recruiting, and preparing for the volumes of growth coming our way this year.
What words of wisdom would you like to share with the members of WMMAA family?
TY: “I have always said that in every sport there is a business behind it, gredu: ‘Till this far, MMA is like Capitalit goes where it is welcomed and it stays where it’s treated well'
WMMAA keeps expanding. However there are still multiple countries that
are not yet WMMAA members. Why should any local Federation apply
for WMMAA membership?
TY: “We are the only organization of its kind. They would be able to get courses, national and international licenses but, yn bwysicaf oll, they can be part of history by allowing athletes in their respective countries to participate in our version of the Olympics of MMA.
What would you tell them?
TY: “You are not alone. Here is where being part of a team with qualified individuals opening door. Power really does come in numbers.

People keep asking: why should we use SportID and SportData. Can you
repeat why it is so essential?

TY: “I’ll keep it short. The number one reasonreason enoughis to avoid private owned companies from having biased control on who and how they upload information.

Mae'r frwydr olaf yn galed iawn, fy gwrthwynebydd yn brawf difrifol i mi. Mae'n gryf a phenderfynol yn gorfforol. Ond diolch i Dduw fy mod yn cael y fuddugoliaeth.
“Y cam nesaf yw wrth gwrs, y Rwsia MMA SuperCup. Rwy'n gobeithio y bydd Duw yn fy helpu i ennill.
Hoffwn ddweud diolch wrth fy hyfforddwyr: Rasul Magomed-Aliev, Abdulla Gaidarbekov. Diolch i Shamil Alibatyrov a oedd yn cornelu mi drwy gydol y bencampwriaeth gyfan a help mawr i mi.”

2015 WMMAA pwysau plu Hyrwyddwr Magomed Yunusilau:
“Hapusrwydd eithafol. Yn gyntaf oll, Nid oeddwn yn siŵr byddwn yn gallu cymryd rhan oherwydd anafiadau, ond mae fy hyfforddwyr, ffrindiau a theulu wedi fy helpu i gasglu gorfforol ac yn feddyliol. Wyf yn hedfan i Prague ac yn cael y canlyniad gorau posibl.
“Roedd gen pedwar ymladd. Mae'r un cyntaf (1/8) Aeth y pellter. Fy gwrthwynebydd, o Colombia, yn benderfynol 'n sylweddol, na fyddai'n rhoi'r gorau iddi. Roedd yn frwydr galed. Yn fy ymladd eraill mi orffen pob un o'r tri gwrthwynebwyr.
“Yn gyntaf, Mae angen i mi wella fy anafiadau; mae'n amser ail-ddilysu. 'N annhymerus' gymryd seibiant ar gyfer yr wythnos ar ôl Pencampwriaeth y Byd yn gyntaf ac yna byddaf yn canolbwyntio ar fy iechyd. Mae gen i broblemau gyda fy nghefn ac un pen-glin. Ac wedyn, Dduw bendithia, 'N annhymerus' yn mynd yn ôl mewn busnes o fewn 2-3 mis. Yr wyf yn bwriadu trosglwyddo i gystadleuaeth MMA proffesiynol. Mae gennym hyfforddwyr gwych a'r tîm sydd yn gymwys iawn ac yn gallu hwyluso yn fy pontio. Rwy'n siŵr y byddaf yn iawn.”

2015 WMMAA Ysgafn Hyrwyddwr Gadzhi Rabadanov:
“Rwy'n hynod hapus. Mae'n deimlad mor braf i wneud eich ffrindiau a'ch teulu hapus. Rwy'n ddiolchgar am yr holl gefnogaeth a gefais gan wrthynt.
“Roedd gen bedwar ymladd i gyd ac i mi orffen fy holl wrthwynebwyr. Ni allaf ddweud pa un oedd yn fwy anodd, pawb o flaen mi oedd yn eithaf da yn ei rinwedd ei hun.
“Os byddaf yn edrych yn ôl, Rwyf wedi cael pum gwersylloedd hyfforddi llawn eleni. Nawr, mae'n amser i gael seibiant oddi wrth gystadleuaeth. Mae angen i mi wella fy clwyfau, gorffwys ac yna dychwelyd fel ymladdwr gwahanol. There is enough room for improvement. I know I had one more fight planned at the Russian MMA SuperCup in December but I’ll have to cancel it because of my knee injury. Ar ben hynny, mae'n braidd yn anodd i wneud pwysau ddwywaith o fewn ffrâm o 10 diwrnod. Byddai'n ar draul fy iechyd o dan yr amgylchiadau hyn. Mae'n ddrwg gennym, pawb a oedd yn gobeithio gwylio mi ymladd yn Chelyabinsk (Rwsia –wmmaa.org) yn dod 5 Rhagfyr.”

2015 WMMAA Pwysau Welter Hyrwyddwr Gadzhimurad Khiramagomedov:
“Nid wyf yn gallu disgrifio fy nheimladau ar hyn o bryd. Mae wedi bod yn ffordd hir. Ddwy flynedd yn ôl, mi a fy mrawd, (Gamzat Khiramagomedov – wmmaa.org) gosod ein bryd ar Bencampwriaeth y Byd. A dyma ni – y ddau pencampwyr. Rydw i mor hapus.
“Fi 'n sylweddol angen i atgyweirio fy nghorff cyn i unrhyw beth arall cynllunio. Mae fy llaw a droed yn cael eu torri. Mae un ligament yn cael ei rhwygo ar fy nghoes chwith. Mae angen amser i wella fy mod ac yna byddwn yn gweld.”
2015 WMMAA Canol Pencampwr Gamzat Khiramagomedov:
“Mae'r profiad hwn yw'r gorau posib. Ar ôl yr holl waith fy mod wedi gwneud mae'n amser i ddal anadl am ychydig. Still, Dydw i ddim yn mynd i ymlacio ar fy rhwyfau. Mae gen i ymladd a drefnwyd yn y SuperCup erbyn Gamazan Gamzatov. Ar ôl y frwydr honno y byddaf yn gallu gorffwys fel arfer.
“Yn Pencampwriaeth y Byd roedd gen pedwar pyliau. Asesu fy gwrthwynebwyr, Gallaf ddweud eu bod i gyd diffoddwyr da. Mae'r frwydr anoddaf a gefais oedd yn erbyn rhyfelwr o Georgia. Ni fyddai'n rhoi'r gorau iddi; hynod bwerus a wrestler da. Rwy'n anafwyd fy mraich chwith dyna pam na allwn i ddangos fy ngorau yn y rownd derfynol. Fodd bynnag, Rydw i mor hapus i mi wnaeth fy mhobl yn gwenu, yn enwedig fy mrawd, Gadzhimurad, sy'n rhoi llawer o ymdrech i mewn i fy helpu. Mae'n wastad yn hapusach na mi pan oeddwn yn ennill. Mae'n fy ffan mwyaf.”

2015 WMMA Pwysau Trwm Ysgafn Hyrwyddwr Magomed Ankalaev:
Mae fy teimladau yn y gorau posibl. Aur yn y Pencampwriaeth y Byd MMA amatur oedd fy nharged am amser hir.
“Roedd gen pum ymladd a'r un olaf oedd y mwyaf anodd i mi. Roeddwn yn teimlo cyfrifoldeb enfawr am ei fod fyny i mi a fyddai y faner Rwsia yn hedfan mor uchel. Diolch dduw, Roeddwn yn gallu i gyflawni hynny.
“Rwy'n bwriadu cymryd rhan yn y Rwsia MMA SuperCup. Ar ol hynny, 'N annhymerus' gymryd gorffwys sy'n, Yr wyf yn credu, 'N annhymerus' wedi haeddu llawn.”

2015 WMMA Pwysau Trwm Hyrwyddwr Zaur Gadzhibabaev:
“Mae llawer yn y fantol yn y rownd derfynol ers fy gwrthwynebydd, Mokhmad Sulimanov, yn awyddus i ddial ei golled o Bencampwriaeth y Byd WMMAA y llynedd. Rwy'n falch fy mod prevailed eto.
I’m honored to be the first two-time WMMAA champion. The competitors in my division were outstanding this year. I trained very hard to give my best and I’m very happy with my performances during the tournament.

Bydd Cynghrair y Byd yn mynd i'r afael â'r heriau unigryw ac anghenion teuluoedd milwrol ymladd. Gan adeiladu ar y gwaith sylfaenol hwn, Bydd y fenter yn canolbwyntio ar feysydd blaenoriaeth allweddol fel cyflogaeth, addysg, a lles, tra'n cymryd rhan mewn ymdrech cynhwysfawr i godi ymwybyddiaeth am y gwasanaeth, aberth, ac anghenion teuluoedd milwrol frwydro yn erbyn.
Mae'r ddau sefydliad yn cydnabod ac yn gwasanaethu pob teulu milwrol frwydro yn erbyn pwy, fel eu hanwyliaid mewn gwisg, gwasanaethu ac aberth cymaint fel y gallwn fyw mewn rhyddid a diogelwch,” Dywedodd Yu. “Mae hon yn her i bob segment o bob cymdeithas i beidio â dim ond dweud diolch ond i ysgogi, cymryd camau a gwneud ymrwymiad gwirioneddol i gefnogi teuluoedd milwrol.”

Ond i gyd yn bwysig. A gallaf ddweud wrthych o brofiad personol, i gyd ei werthfawrogi. Dyna pam yr ydym yma heddiw a pham mae'r WMMAA a Brwydr Frawdoliaeth yn ceisio i rali cymunedau i ymuno â ni.”

Mae'r teuluoedd hyn – teuluoedd hynod hyn – yw'r grym y tu ôl i'r heddlu.”
“Yr wyf wedi dweud erioed mae gennym lawer o rwymedigaethau fel cenhedloedd, ond un rhwymedigaeth foesol wirioneddol sanctaidd yn unig i frawdoliaeth hon: i baratoi a diogelu'r rhai anfonwn i mewn i ffordd niwed yn, ac i roi pob darn o ofal wrthynt eu, a'u teuluoedd, Mae angen pan fyddant yn dychwelyd,” Nododd Galiev.
