WMMAA President Vadim Finkelchtein Leading sport into future

Mars 15, 2016 FNU47 Legg igjen en kommentar

MONTE CARLO, Monaco (Mars 14, 2016)- World Mixed Martial Arts Association (WMMAA) President 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: “I 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. I 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. Vår
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, det
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. Ja, 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 idrettsutøvere. 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
familie, 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. Også, 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.

Igjen, 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, men, 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. Idrettsutøvere’ 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 fighters’ eligibility 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. Dessuten, they contain so many functions that it would take me forever to discuss it. Just think of rankings, both individual and national, jagerfly’ 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

Februar 26, 2016 FNU47 Legg igjen en kommentar

MONTE CARLO, Monaco (Februar 25, 2016)- Verden MMA Association (WMMAA) vice president Tomas Yu, av 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 Turtles… I 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?
TY “My 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: “Vel, as an entrepreneur, I’m never satisfied, I always see ways to do things better but the reality is that, i 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
Praha?

TY: “Moments like these are the ones that 3 years ago we would dream about. Vel, last year that dream came true… løpet 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 Licensing’ to 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, tro: ‘Till this far, MMA is like Capital… it 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, viktigst, 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 reason – reason enough – is to avoid private owned companies from having biased control on who and how they upload information.”

Mexican Consulate in Albuquerque, Efren Leyba, og

WMMAA Pan-American president Tomas Yu (sentrum)

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (Februar 15, 2016) – The second annual World MMA Association (WMMAA) Pan-American Congress, recently held at The Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was a major success by all standards.

(L-R) — WMMAA Pan-American president Tomas Yu, MMA superstar

Jon Jones and legendary coach Chris Luttrell

“The Pan-American Movement”, as it was named, brought together sports, turisme, and education for a common goal with more than 12 participating countries.

The Congress provided a rare opportunity for the entire WMMAA Pan-American family to collaborate with special partnerships like The Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce og The Mexico Consulate in Albuquerque, University of New Mexico Global Education Department. PANAM Members, representatives of National Federations, Commissions, Association and the Organizing Committee of the WMMAA Pan-American Championship (OCPC), as well as athletes, trenere, media, sponsors and other stakeholders to meet and discuss issues of importance to the entire MMA movement.

In his closing speech to the Congress, Pan-American Division President Tomas Yu paid tribute to the excellent collaboration between Pan-American members.

“If you asked me to sprawl a couple of times, I would most definitely need some nitro coffee from Villa Myriam before I run out of breath, followed by the guaranteed use of Sore No More,” Yu sa. “But when it comes to fighting for our youth, for our MMA global goals – for cleaner competition, for a healthier, more peaceful and more flourishing SPORT – I will sprawl-jab-cross-kick like a champion. I will sprint the steepest trail in the Sandia Mountains. I will never stop until we raise our hands by victory. I am counting and exhorting all involved in the MMA industry to join us. We must go for the KO.”

Over the course of the three-day Congress and 13-day PANAM Camp, there were special guest such as Legacy Champion Damacio Page, former UFC champion Jon “Bones” Jones og Carlos Condit. Participants heard from many respected speakers such as Health Committee Director Curt Chavez from eVOLV Strong, Hector Molina, Director of PANAM Regulatory Committee and Director of PANAM Medical Committee, Dr. Justo Pavia. The congress had interesting discussions on the following themes: idrettsutøvere, 2016 Expo MMA, structure of the “WMMAA Pan-American Movement”, global officials’ license and database, new era of Digital Sports Marketing Revolution, og 2016 Pan-American Championships.

Each day was divided in two general sessions with a half-day devoted to Rules and Regulations discussions for PANAM. The plenary sessions were followed by three simultaneous breakout sessions on respective sub-themes.

All sessions were live-cast over the internet to allow the general public to hear discussions as it happened.

Two sessions began with presentations from a panel of speakers. The moderators of each panel were then responsible for the ensuing discussion period, which gave participants an opportunity to voice their opinions on issues. The main points from each session were carefully recorded by“ENLACE” – the new exclusive WMMAA correspondent program – to inform the Editorial Committee of the discussions at the end of each day. The final document reflected the main ideas to come out of the proceedings in Albuquerque, as well as information collected through the virtual WMMAA Pan-American Congress, allowing the WMMAA Pan-American family and public to submit written contributions.

The mission of the 2016 WMMAA Pan-American Congress was to bring together sports, tourism and education for a united front and review the status of the WMMAA PANAM Movement in today’s evolving global society. Information was gathered and opinions sought regarding its future, in addition to providing structure, guidance, proposals and recommendations to all constituents and other stakeholders of the WMMAA PANAM Movement for its structured showcase and harmonious development within the global youth community.

Den 2016 WMMAA Pan-American Congress was a great success and has left the WMMAA Pan-American Movement with a blueprint for the future. It is now time, igjen, for the PANAM family to translate words into action: We are the Future of MMA!

“Årets VM var det beste arrangementet vi har hatt så langt,” WMMAA Kommunikasjonsdirektør Mikhail Mazur sa. “Det høyeste antall land, samt deltakere, konkurrerte i år. WMMAA er fortsatt i sin spede begynnelse, men vi holder utviklende. Du kan tydelig se at med hvert år. Vi har lagt til nye vektklasser og akseptert nye land som medlemmer av vår non-profit organisasjon. Dette er en vanskelig jobb, men det er svært tilfredsstillende å se utøverne fly inn fra hele verden for å konkurrere mot de beste amatør krigere som hver gikk gjennom en vanskelig utvelgelsesprosess i hjemlandet.

“Praha var en stor vert, og WMMAA er veldig glad for å ha holdt mesterskapet i denne vakre europeiske hovedstaden. Mye mer må gjøres neste år. Vi forventer at flere asiatiske og Pan-Am-land kommer inn i WMMAA-familien ettersom våre kontinentale presidenter legger mye vekt på å lete etter de beste nasjonale føderasjonene for å jobbe så hardt og så flittig som våre nåværende medlemmer gjør. Vi er bare ruster opp. Jeg er begeistret over å se hva det neste året vil gi oss og sporten til amatør MMA generelt.”

CHAMPIONS’ Sitater av NOTE

2015 WMMAA bantamvekt Champion Bakhachali Bakhachali:

“Det var en fantastisk opplevelse. Du vet det var en lang vei. Jeg er så glad det er over, og jeg var vellykket i å nå alle målene jeg hadde satt. Den siste kampen var veldig vanskelig, min motstander var en alvorlig test for meg. Han er fysisk sterk og bestemt. Men takket Gud jeg fikk seieren.

“Det neste trinnet er selvfølgelig den russiske MMA SuperCup. Jeg håper Gud vil hjelpe meg å vinne det.

Jeg vil gjerne si takk til mine veiledere: Rasul Magomed-Aliev, Abdulla Gaidarbekov. Takk til Shamil Alibatyrov som ble svinger meg gjennom hele mesterskapet og hjalp meg mye.”

2015 WMMAA Fjær Champion Magomed Yunusilau:

“Ekstrem lykke. Først av alt, Jeg var ikke sikker på at jeg ville være i stand til å delta på grunn av skader, men mine trenere, venner og familie hjalp meg samles fysisk og mentalt. Jeg fløy til Praha og fikk et best mulig resultat.

“Jeg hadde fire kamper. Den første (1/8) gikk avstanden. Min motstander, fra Colombia, ble egentlig bestemt, han ikke ville gi opp. Det var en hard-utkjempet slaget. I mine andre kamper jeg ferdig alle tre motstandere.

“Første, Jeg trenger å helbrede mine skader; det er forlengelse tid. Jeg skal ta en pause for den første post-VM uke og så skal jeg fokusere på min helse. Jeg har problemer med ryggen og det ene kneet. Og så, Gud velsigne, Jeg skal komme tilbake i virksomheten innen 2-3 måneder. Jeg har tenkt å overføre til profesjonell MMA konkurranse. Vi har gode trenere og laget som er høyt kvalifisert og i stand til å legge til rette i min overgang. Jeg er sikker på at jeg skal være OK.”

2015 WMMAA Lett Champion Gadzhi Rabadanov:

“Jeg er ekstremt glad. Det er en god følelse å få venner og familie lykkelig. Jeg er virkelig takknemlig for all støtten jeg har fått fra dem.

“Jeg hadde fire kamper totalt, og jeg ferdig med alle mine motstandere. Jeg kan ikke si hvilken som var hardere, alle foran meg var ganske bra i sin egen rett.

“Hvis jeg ser tilbake, Jeg har hatt fem fulle treningsleire i år. Nå, det er tid for en pause fra konkurranse. Jeg trenger å helbrede sårene mine, hvile og deretter komme tilbake som en annen fighter. Det er nok rom for forbedringer. Jeg vet at jeg hadde planlagt en kamp til på den russiske MMA SuperCup i desember, men jeg må avbryte den på grunn av kneskaden min. Videre er det ganske vanskelig å gjøre vekt to ganger innen en 10-dagers ramme. Det ville være til skade for helsen min under disse omstendighetene. Sorry, alle som hadde håpet å se meg kjempe i Chelyabinsk (Russland –wmmaa.org) kommer 5 desember.”

2015 WMMAA weltervekt Champion Gadzhimurad Khiramagomedov:

“Jeg kan ikke beskrive mine følelser akkurat nå. Det har vært en lang vei. To år siden, meg og min bror, (Gamzat Khiramagomedov – wmmaa.org) satt blikket på VM. Og her er vi – begge vinnere. Jeg er så glad.

“Jeg trenger virkelig å reparere kroppen min før du planlegger noe annet. Min hånd og fot er brutt. Ett leddbånd er revet på min venstre ben. Jeg trenger tid til å gro, og så får vi se.”

2015 WMMAA mellomvekt mester Gamzat Khiramagomedov:

“Denne erfaringen er best mulig. Etter alt arbeidet jeg hadde gjort det på tide å ta en pust for en liten stund. Fortsatt, Jeg kommer ikke til å slappe av på mine laurbær. Jeg har en kamp planlagt på SuperCup mot Gamazan Gamzatov. Etter den kampen vil jeg være i stand til å hvile normalt.

“På VM hadde jeg fire kamper. Vurdere mine motstandere, Jeg kan si de var alle gode krigere. Den vanskeligste kampen jeg hadde var mot en kriger fra Georgia. Han ville ikke gi opp; ekstremt kraftig og god wrestler. Jeg skadet min venstre arm som er grunnen til at jeg ikke kunne vise mitt beste i finalen. Men, Jeg er så glad jeg gjorde mitt folk smile, spesielt min bror, Gadzhimurad, som legger mye arbeid i å hjelpe meg. Han er alltid lykkeligere enn meg når jeg vinner. Han er min største fan.”

2015 WMMA lett tungvekt Magomed Ankalaev:

“Mine følelser er best mulig. Gull i denne amatør MMA VM hadde vært mitt mål i lang tid.

“Jeg hadde fem kamper og finalen var det vanskeligste for meg. Jeg følte stort ansvar fordi det var opp til meg om ikke det russiske flagget skulle være flyr så høyt. Takk Gud, Jeg var i stand til å oppnå det.

“Jeg planlegger å ta del i den russiske MMA SuperCup. Etter det, Jeg skal ta en pause som, Jeg tror, Jeg har fullt fortjent.”

2015 WMMA Heavyweight Champion Zaur Gadzhibabaev:

“Mye sto på spill i finalen siden min motstander, Mokhmad Sulimanov, ønsket å hevne hans tap fra fjorårets WMMAA VM. Jeg er glad jeg seiret igjen.

“Jeg er beæret over å være den første to ganger WMMAA-mesteren. Konkurrentene i divisjonen min var enestående i år. Jeg trente veldig hardt for å gi mitt beste, og jeg er veldig fornøyd med prestasjonene mine under turneringen.”
