BELLATOR-ek FEDOR EMELIANENKO KONDAIRA HEAVYWEIGHT BERRIZTEA SINATU DU AGUR BURUAREN AURREKO BORROKA ANITZEKO KONTRATUA ESKlusIBOA EGITEKO

Erantzun
LOS ANGELES — Bellator harro dago MMA errusiar bikaina dela iragarri duelako Fedor Emelianenko (38-6, 1 NC) borroka anitzeko kontratu luzapen esklusiboa sinatu du bere ibilbidea Bellator kaiolan amaitzeko.



Emelianenkoren agurreko birak Bellatorren pisu astuneko dibisioan jarraitzen du promozioko zortzi gizonezkoen pisu astuneko Munduko Sari Nagusian burututako final baten harira. Stary Oskoletik, Belgorod oblasta, Errusiak, "Azken Enperadoreak" duela gutxi lehen itzuliko kanporaketak lortu zituen Chael Sonnen eta Frank Mir torneoko finalerdietan eta hasierako txandan, hurrenez hurren.



«Pozik nago Fedor fitxatu ahal izan dugulako, garai guztietako pisu astun handiena, kontratu luzapen berri batera,"Bellator presidente Scott Coker-ek esan zuen. "Negozio honetako lagun bat dela uste dudan norbait da eta are pozik nago Bellatorrekin bere ibilbide historikoa amaitzea erabaki duelako.. Badira berarentzako jokaldi zirraragarriak Bellator-en, iraganeko zaleei erakarriko dietela, baita txapelketan azkenaldian egindako zale berriak ere. Kirol garaian behera egin ahala, Pozik nago bere ibilbidea bere baldintzekin ixten ikustean ".



“Scott Cokerrekiko nire adiskidetasun eta errespetu sendoak kontratuaren luzapenera iristea prozesu sinplea bihurtu zuen,”Esan du Fedor Emelianenkok. "Bellator nire etxea da. Espero dut Bellatorri hazten eta bere potentzial osoa lortzen laguntzea munduko MMA promozio goren gisa.”





PRIDE pisu handiko txapelduna izandakoa eta PRIDE 2004 Pisu astunen Munduko Sari Nagusiko txapelduna, Emelianenko mundu osoko zaleek "AHUNTZA" deitu ohi dute. Antônio Rodrigo Nogueiraren aurkako garaipenak biltzen dituen kirolaren historiako ikusgarrienetakoa den karreraren curriculuma., Mirko Cro Cop, Mark Hunt, Mark Coleman eta Andrei Arlovski, batzuk aipatzearren. With 29 karrerako garaipenak helmugan amaitu arte, botere zulatzailea eta mundu mailako klase errusiar estoikoaren Sambo-k beti izan dezakete beste aitorpen bat bere ibilbide ospetsuan.



Emelianenko Bellator kaiolara itzultzea oraindik zehazteke dago, baina aurten ekintzetara itzultzea espero da.

Currently riding a winning streak of 10 muturretan, including six straight since joining forces with Bellator in 2015, “The Jewel” has her eyes set on a third consecutive world title defense when she challenges the undefeated Rubin on July 12. Since knocking off Dutch legend Marloes Coenen for the 145-pound strap at Warrior 174, the Gibson MMA-product has since collected back-to-back victories over top contenders Arlene Blencowe eta Talita Nogueira.

BELLATOR SIGNS ‘PITBULL’ BROTHERS TO MULTI-YEAR, MULTI-FIGHT CONTRACT EXTENSIONS

Erantzun

LOS ANGELES – Bellator is proud to announce that both Patricio and Patricky Freire, better known to fans as the infamous “Pitbull Brothers,” will continue to compete inside the Bellator cage after signing exclusive multi-year, multi-fight extensions to remain with the promotion.



Fighting out of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasilen, the brothers have become synonymous with Bellator throughout their prolific careers. Having held titles and established themselves among the elite, there are very few names that appear in the Bellator record books more often than current featherweight champ Patricio Pitbull (28-4) and his older brother Patricky Pitbull (21-8).

“There are a lot of people on the Bellator roster I want to put my hands on – the first on the list, I’m fighting on May 11th, so renewing made perfect sense for me,” said Patricio. “I’m happy with the agreement and the plans for the future. Of all the fighters currently active on the promotion, I’m with Bellator the longest and the most successful. I plan to set that bar even higher. Urtez, I said ‘I’d become the number one in the world here.’ If anyone still has any doubt, keep an eye on the next chapters.”



Patricky added, “Bellator is growing and so am I. I’m in the best moment of my career and the same can be said of the promotion with the quality of shows, the new TV deals and names under the roster. I’ve set the goal of becoming world champion and setting records. I already am the fighter with most finishes and fights in the organization and I don’t plan to let anyone catch up with me. I have grudges to settle and names to add to my belt. If things line up well, I’m looking at making noise in three weight classes in the near future, so expect the best of me! I’m glad to have reached a new agreement with Bellator and very excited for the new things to come.”
