FFC 34 Nov. 9 At Fight Dome Las Vegas Has Been Canceled

Medical Concerns And Fighter Safety Led To The Cancelation Of FFC 34

LAS VEGAS, NV (Listopad 8, 2018) – Due to reasons involving medical issues, Final Fight Championship has announced thatFFC 34on November 9th has been officially canceled.

 

 

 

Nick Sadeghi, MD of Athlete Advantage Medical in Las Vegas, NV, released the following statement to Final Fight Championship.

 

The Nevada State Athletic Commission requires a series of medical examinations to be completed by a professional fighter in order to determine the medical condition of a fighter, the outcome of those exams determining if the fighter will be cleared to compete or not. Of utmost concern is the fighter’s physical well-being. It was determined by independent physicians conducting the exams for FFC as well as the Nevada State Athletic Commission that several fighters scheduled to compete on the November 9th fight card would not be able to compete due to abnormal MRA findings which identified small aneurysms in the brain. For obvious reasons, these fighters could not be cleared to compete without proper medical workup. This includes consulting with a Neurosurgeon and an Interventional Radiologist. Some fighters may be cleared after this, but some may need a surgical procedure to correct the aneurysm before he or she can continue to fight in the future.

 

 

 

FFC CEO/President, Orsat Zovko, issued his own statement regarding the unfortunate cancelation.

 

 

 

We are disappointed to make this announcement, but on such short notice it was impossible to move forward because four of our six fights were stopped by the commission and medical personnel, including our Main Event and Co-Event,” said Zovko.

 

 

 

We must follow the strict rules and guidelines of the Nevada Athletic Commission, and we respect the decisions made by the medical community, because it is in the best interest of the fighters, and to protect their health is the ultimate goal.

 

 

 

Final Fight Championship (FFC) is the first and only professional combat sports franchise offering fans a unique ‘multi-discipline’ zažít (Box, Kickbox a MMA), where every event culminates with a championship title bout.

Ve svém posledním boji, Hernandez defeated Daniel Valdivia (14-3, 10 KO) in a fight that Valdivia was rocked badly in the last two rounds. Some controversy happened after the bout as Valdivia was originally announced the winner, despite being out boxed and beaten, an official at ringside counted the scores again and realized a judging error and announced Hernandez, the rightful winner.

On top of the bizarre ending, Hernandez was cut in the fight and forced to sit, because of his cut. Valdivia replaced him and got dropped and beaten by Shane Mosely Jr., who now is in the finals.

Golden Boy vstoupí “Beast Mode nebo ne Mode”
Jared Shaw podařilo v těžké váze nedávno napuštěné reklamní smlouvu s Golden Boy Promotions

Los Angeles, JAKO. (Listopad 8, 2018) – V době, kdy boxu v těžké váze je opět horké divize. Otázkou je stále požádán, kdo bude, že v příštím Mike Tyson jako vyřazovací umělce? Nebo má sporty jako fotbal a basketbal sejmuty nejlepší velcí muži od boxu?

 

 

 

vstoupit James “Beast” Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson má všechny atributy výše uvedených vlastností. Úžasný sportovec, který byl v NFL soustředění s pozadím v boji, který zobrazuje divoký elektráren.

 

 

 

Wilson, který právě podepsal s Golden Boy Promotions, má rekord 8-0 se sedmi knockouts, ale jeho příběh začíná v průběhu 20 před lety v ulicích Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Wilson se prochází těžkým obdobím a byl bez domova ve věku mezi 13 a 15, kde spal v motelech, parkové lavičky, a sprchování v těchto parcích. Wilson měl seškrábat se zákonem, a to změnilo jeho život….pro lepší.

 

 

 

“Jsem uzamčené a poté se umístí do skupiny. Že vlastně dostal, abych měla strukturu a umístí mě na správné cestě. Udělal jsem dobré výsledky ve škole a začal hrát sportu a teď jsem měl pozitivní možnosti v mém životě,” řekl Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson se stal Los Angeles Times High School Fotbalista roku, stejně jako trojnásobný all-město sledovat & atlet pole, což mu vyneslo stipendium na Concord univerzity v Západní Virginii.

 

 

 

Wilson, který absolvoval s mírou v sociologii, pak pokračoval hrát profesionální fotbal ve všech místech, Polsko.

 

 

 

Po tom získal soustředění pozvat s Chicago Bears. Nicméně se rozhodl následovat další sportovní vášeň.

 

 

 

“Začal jsem dělat Kenpo-Karate, Muay-Thai a kickbox.” Wilson měl profesionální Kickboxing rekord 16-2-1 kde závodil ve špičkových organizací, jako je K-1 a Glory.

 

 

Potom, Wilson se pokusil svou ruku na MMA a nasbíral impozantní 5-2 záznam a bojoval za vysoce ceněné mistrovství Bellator Boj.

 

 

 

Stále není spokojen, Wilson začal boxovat.

 

 

 

Wilson opět cestoval po celém světě a začal děrování pro odměňování kariéru na Novém Zélandu.

 

 

 

“Věděl jsem, že promotor na Novém Zélandu, a byl jsem schopen bojovat tam každý týden. Že zrychlil svůj proces a rozvoj. Vrátil jsem se do Los Angeles, a byl schopný dostat další čtyři vítězství.”

 

 

 

Na 7-0, Wilson se poté setkal dlouholetý boxu průmysl hráč, Jared Shaw.

 

 

 

Shaw viděl videa Wilsonem na jeho účet Instagram, a natáhl do neporažený heavyweight.

 

 

 

“Jared mě kontaktoval, a setkal se v tělocvičně, a měl stejnou vizi pro mě, že jsem měl, a zbytek je historie.”

 

 

 

“Viděl jsem Jamese jako diamant,” Said Shaw. “Má kombinace a rychlost a sílu, které nejsou vidět v těžké váze. Má že “to” faktorem, který jsem viděl, s Kimbo Slice. Měl jsem to štěstí dost podepsali Kimbo pryč z bojů, které byly vidět na Youtube. Když Kimbo vstoupil do místnosti, jste se cítil přítomnost a energii. Vidím mnoho stejných kvalit, pokud jde o James v tom, že typ atrakce. Každý, kdo mylně James pro fotbalisty nebo smíšených bojových umělců bude jistě mít plné ruce práce v ringu. Jedná se o blue-chip atlet, ” Said Shaw, který vyrostl ve sportu jako jeho otec Gary Shaw byl jedním z předkladatelů nejlepších na světě, v posledních třech desetiletích.

 

 

 

 

 

Shawa první úkolem bylo dostat se James se správným trenérem. Vstoupit Justin Fortune.

 

 

 

“Znal jsem Justina po dlouhou dobu. Oba jako silový a kondiční trenér a jako trenér. Většina z nich by ho znát na straně Manny Pacquiao, ale možná většina lidí neví, že Justin byl heavyweight vyhlídka, kteří bojovali Lennox Lewis. Co se mi líbí nejvíce o této párování je Justin byl kratší heavyweight jakož, ale silný puncher. Jeho zkušenost je to, co se děje na pomoc James zrychlit svůj růst ve sportu. Jako tým, Máme za cíl přinést mistrovství světa zpátky do Los Angeles, aby včas,” pokračování Shaw.

 

 

 

Shawa Dalším krokem bylo najít tu správnou promotor pro Wilson podepsat s, a duo našel jednou z největších společností na světě, který se zajímal.

 

 

 

“Hodně promotérů se na mě dívají. Setkal jsem se s Golden Boy, a viděli mou talent a vizi, a mám pocit, že se to stalo pro mě, a vzít mě do těžké váze mistrovství světa,” řekl Wilson.

 

 

 

Shaw pochvaloval manželství mezi bojovníkem a promotor.

 

 

“Je to ideální situace. Golden Boy Promotions je jedním z lídrů v našem sportu, pokud jde o oblasti propagace firmy. V této situaci, fungovalo to, že máte velkou perspektivu z Los Angeles bojuje od renomovaných světových společností se sídlem v Los Angeles. Právě teď Golden Boy je v horní části tohoto sportu. Podporují pravděpodobně nejvyšší bojovník na světě, v Canelo Alvarez, a byli schopni ho zajistit bezprecedentní dohodu s DAZN. Těšíme se na příležitosti, které přijdou na Jamese, a předvést Jamese’ mimořádný soubor dovedností. Mám 100% důvěra v Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) a Robert (Diaz) vést Jamese k těžké váze mistrovství světa, a pomůže maximalizovat svůj zisk potenciál. Los Angeles nikdy neměla přeborníka v těžké váze, tak to dává smysl, že první z nich bude s kompletním týmem Los Angeles založená s Jamesem, Justin, Zlatý chlapec a já. ”

 

 

 

“Chtěl bych, aby lidé věděli o Jamesovi, že uvnitř lan, že je zvíře a Human Highlight film, takže neblikají. Ale mimo ring, to je neuvěřitelné otec jeho tří chlapců. Obrovské motivační řečník, a pozitivním vzorem pro vnitřní-měst a zbytek světa. On je velký na komunitu a pomáhá mládež. Zejména těch, které jsou šikany.”

 

 

 

Wilson mluví hodně mladíků asi proti šikaně. “Já hodně mluvit a seminářů pro boj proti šikaně. Jdu do mnoha škol a dětských domovů a říct jim svůj příběh. Myslím, že může být někdo, pro děti vzhlížet a dejte jim vědět, že mají budoucnost navzdory bez ohledu na okolnost, že jsou v. Řeknu dětem, že vaše ruce jsou zbraně, ústa je zbraň, a jediné místo pro boj je uvnitř kruhu.”

 

 

 

Když byl dotázán, kdo chce bojovat a jaké jsou jeho cíle jsou v tomto sportu, Wilson, “Nejsem snaží bojovat proti každému jednotlivci zvlášť, Dívám se na boj se všemi z nich. A co je nejdůležitější, Jsem zde, aby fanouškům něco se dívat. to je 365 dny “Bestie” sezóna. Je Beast Mode nebo ne Mode.”
