QUANDO: Sexta-feira, Maio 13 em 8 p.m. PT

QUEM: O primeiro Campeão do Mundo britânico na história do MMA será sempre Liam McGeary. At 6’6 the towering fighter has achieved notoriety around the world with his impressive skillset, which has seen him end fights with impressive knockout power as well as jiu-jitsu prowess. Atualmente invicto em 11-0, o futuro é brilhante para o MMA Campeão do Bellator. Mais recentemente, McGeary defeated Tito Ortiz in the main event of the groundbreakingBellator MMA: Dynamite 1.”

 

O nome Gracie é sinônimo de MMA, e que é em grande parte, em parte, a Royce Gracie, o homem que é considerado ter inventado o esporte como a conhecemos hoje. O vencedor das primeiras vários eventos do UFC, Gracie iria desmantelar vários adversários em uma única noite, many of which were much larger than him. Por muitos anos não houve resposta para a técnica Gracie Jiu Jitsu que ele trouxe em uma luta. Hoje, é difícil encontrar um lutador de MMA que não tem treinado na arte do jiu jitsu. Mais recentemente, Gracie defeated Ken Shamrock in the main event of the record-breaking “Bellator 149.”

One of the most recognizable MMA fighters of all time, Hall of Famer Randy Couture transitioned nicely into the entertainment world after his fighting career, starring in several television shows and movies, most notably the Expendables franchise and Dancing with the Stars. Inside the cage, Couture was a fearless underdog, often defeating men with great size advantages. “The Natural” was a multi-time heavyweight and multi-time light heavyweight champion in the UFC.

When watching any combat sports event, it’s odd not to see Jacob “Stitch” Duran as the professional cutman on duty. Recentemente, Bellator MMA was pleased to exclusively secure his services as cutman for the foreseeable future, after “Stitch” signed a multi-year contract with the Scott Coker-led promotion. “Stitch” is seen everywhere combat sports events take place, and played a vital role in the recent smash blockbuster, “Creed.”

If there is one legend in attendance who knows a thing or two about kickboxing and MMA, é Cung Le. Born in Vietnam, Le fought 17 times around the globe and never lost before making the leap from kickboxing to MMA, where he won the Strikeforce middleweight championship. De lá, the San Jose, Califa. – based fighter would continue to expand his recognition past the world of combat sports, starring in multiple feature films. Le remained competitive into his 40’s, finishing Rich Franklin in what was unanimously considered the 2012 knockout of the year.

 

A legend in the heavyweight division, Mark Coleman was the UFC 10 e UFC 11 tournament champion, the promotion’s first Heavyweight Champion, and the Pride Fighting Championships 2000 Open Weight Grand Prix champion. The accolades don’t stop there; Coleman represented the United States at the 1992 Summer Olympics and won gold medals at the Pan American Championships in freestyle wrestling in 1990, 91 e 92.

LUTA INFO: "Bellator 154: Davis vs. King Mo” ocorre em Maio 14, and airs LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 8 p.m. E/7 p.m. CT and features a light heavyweight main event of Phil Davis versus King Mo.

Os ingressos começam em apenas $30 e já estão à venda no Bellator.com, Ticketmaster, and the SAP Center Box Office.

MAIN EVENT ANNOUNCED FOR NEF MMA DEBUT ON CAPE COD

Hyannis, Massachusetts (Maio 3, 2016) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) Número um promoção luta regional da América, irá realizar o seu próximo evento, "NEF 23: CAGE THE CAPE” on Sábado, Maio 14, 2016 at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Hoje cedo, NEF announced the main event of the fight card. Brendan “Lock Down” Battles (0-0) has signed to face Mike “The Mustache” Hansen (4-3) in a professional bout at a fight weight of 265-pounds.

 

Brendan Battles is a native of Eastham, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. There, he was a three-time All American wrestler for Nauset Regional High School. During his high school career, Battles captured a total of two state championships and three New England championships with an amazing 161 wins to his credit prior to graduating in 2012. A multi-sport athlete, he later played defensive end and tackle for the University of Connecticut. Battles made his NEF debut earlier this year at “NEF 21: THE IMMORTALS” when he efficiently dispatched of Mike Hansen’s Berserkers teammate, Dave Smith (2-2) in the first round via TKO ref stoppage. Battles trains out of Gracie Fitness and is a member of Team Juniko based out of Hyannis.

 

“I look forward to Mike coming down to my backyard for my first professional fight,” said Battles. “I know he is a tough fighter, but I look forward to showcasing the skills I have acquired thus far as I continue my journey to become a well-rounded MMA fighter.”

 

Mike Hansen is the founding member of Berserkers MMA based out of Rumford, Maine. He won a Maine state championship in wrestling as a heavyweight in 2004. Hansen made his MMA debut shortly after graduating from high school, only to step away from the sport for a decade in order to serve his country as a combat engineer in the United States Army. He returned to the MMA cage in 2015 as a member of the NEF roster. Hansen has become known for taking tough fights against opponents that he is generally undersized next to. Less than two weeks ago, he defeated former top-tanked amateur light heavyweight Jesse “The Barbarian” Baughman (0-2) via first round submission at “NEF 22: ALL ROADS LEAD HERE.Always up for a challenge, Hansen requested the opportunity to face Battles in his highly anticipated professional debut.

 

“I like this fight because I get to fight in Massachusetts again,” stated Hansen. “I made my pro debut at Club Lido at the ‘Wonderland’ Blue Line stop just over a decade ago. I rode the ‘Tfrom Fenway to Wonderland on August 6th, 2005 to make my debut against Eric Brown who I beat by rear naked choke at 1:27 na primeira rodada. Jumping up two weight classes sucks, but I’ve competed at this weight many times. Battles is a very accomplished athlete with a stacked resume. With only three minutes of cage time, I think it’s time Battles was in the cage with someone ready to fight. I will gladly welcome Battles to the professional ranks and see how he stacks up. I’m going to stand right in front of him and make him beat me up and, if he can, ele é um bom lutador. If he can’t, it is because I didn’t want him to. Em Maio 14th, we will have a fight my friend!"

 

"NEF 23: CAGE THE CAPE," acontece em Sábado, Maio 14, 2016 at the Hyannis Youth & Community Center in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Tickets for “NEF 23” are $40 para a admissão geral e $60 for cageside. They are on sale now at www.NewEnglandFights.com/Tickets

RFA VAI PARA CHICAGOLAND COM RFA 39 – BARCELOS vs. MOFFETT

MAIN EVENT:
RAONI BARCELOS
vs.
BOBBY “O HOMEM-LOBO” MOFFETT
Título mundial peso pena
Sexta-feira, 17 de junho AO VIVO na AXS TV
AO VIVO NO HAMMOND CIVIC CENTER
em HAMMOND, INDIANA
Bilhetes à venda na CAGETIX.com

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Ressurreição Combate Alliance (RFA) O presidente Ed Soares anunciou hoje que a RFA fará sua primeira viagem a Chicagoland em junho com uma atração principal do campeonato. O evento principal da RFA 39 apresenta a primeira defesa de título do campeão peso pena da RFA Raoni Barcelos. Ele vai colocar seu título em jogo contra o melhor candidato e favorito local Bobby “The Wolfman” Moffett. RFA 39 – Barcelos vs. Moffett acontece Sexta-feira, 17 de junho no Hammond Civic Center em Hammond, Indiana. O card principal será transmitido ao vivo e em todo o país na AXS TV em 10 p.m. E / 7 p.m. PT.
“Estou animado para trazer uma luta pelo título mundial para Hammond” stated Soares. “Nosso campeão peso pena Raoni Barcelos vai defender seu título pela primeira vez contra o candidato número um Bobby Moffett. Estas são duas das maiores perspectivas de peso pena no mundo e é a maneira perfeita de mostrar aos fãs de luta na área de Chicago o que é a RFA.”
Os ingressos para RFA 39 – Barcelos vs. Moffett agora estão disponíveis para compra. Você pode apoiar seu lutador favorito na compra de ingressos através de CAGETIX.com
Barcelos (9-1) vai defender seu título de pena da RFA pela primeira vez depois de desfrutar de um 2015, que muitos especialistas do MMA previram há vários anos. Barcelos foi apontado como um grande sucesso no MMA antes mesmo de pisar em uma jaula de aço. O filho do Jiu-Jitsu Coral (vermelho e preto) belt Laerte Barcelos, ele começou a aprender “A Arte Suave” aos dois anos. Em seguida, ao contrário de muitos faixas-pretas de Jiu-Jitsu, Barcelos obteve sucesso no Freestyle Wrestling, onde competiu como membro da Seleção Brasileira de Wrestling. Contudo, sua rara combinação de disciplinas de grappling de alto nível não é o que o torna especial entre os principais candidatos do MMA. É o fato de ele possuir um amplo poder de ataque que também pode realizar o trabalho. Isso é evidente no fato de que mais da metade de suas vitórias vieram por KO ou TKO, que inclui a primeira rodada KO do lutador All-American Jamal Parks da Divisão I da NCAA anteriormente invicto na RFA 23. Barcelos está agora procurando fazer o mesmo com outra perspectiva importante enquanto se prepara para sua primeira defesa do título da RFA.
“Estou muito feliz por defender meu título mundial da RFA na RFA 39,” Barcelos declarado. “RFA mostra os melhores novos talentos do MMA mundial e agora é transmitido ao vivo aqui no Brasil. Meus amigos, família, e os companheiros agora têm a oportunidade de me ver lutar ao vivo no Esporte Interativo. É um sonho que se tornou realidade e uma honra ser campeão de um grande evento como o RFA. Esse cinturão volta para o Brasil comigo em junho.”
Moffett (8-1) está entrando nessa luta com muito ímpeto. Ele está em uma seqüência de quatro vitórias consecutivas, que inclui uma vitória sobre o veterano veterano da RFA Dan Moret na RFA 24. Moffett nasceu e foi criado 10 milhas do local do outro lado da fronteira do estado em Homewood, Illinois. A tarefa de defender seu território e conquistar o título dos penas da RFA só aumentou a fome desse jovem e empolgante prospecto. Esta é uma fome “The Wolfman” precisará ao enfrentar o adversário mais perigoso de sua carreira. Para citar o clássico 2010 filme que compartilha seu apelido, “Eu não sabia que você caçava monstros? Às vezes, os monstros caçam você.” Moffett agora está ansioso para canalizar seu licantropo interior na RFA 39.
“Estou muito grato que a maior luta da minha carreira será em casa na frente da minha família e amigos,” Moffett explicou. “Eu sinto que tudo pelo que tenho trabalhado agora se tornou realidade. Barcelos é um duro. Ele é um lutador muito bom e campeão. Estou honrado que ele queira lutar comigo. Estou ansioso para dar o próximo passo em minha carreira, ganhando o título RFA em 17 de junho.”
O card de luta completo para RFA 39 – Barcelos vs. Moffett será anunciado em breve. Este será o primeiro evento da RFA a ocorrer em “O Estado Hoosier” de Indiana e será o décimo quinto estado que a RFA visita. Todo o card principal da RFA 39 será transmitido ao vivo em todo o país e na TV AXS em 10 p.m. E / 7 p.m. PT este Sexta-feira, 17 de junho.

Art of War Fighting Championship 17 Update – Ashleigh Grimshaw replaces Injured Junior Assuncao in Main Event

BEIJING, CHINA – A welterweight matchup between UFC and Bellator veteran Waylon Lowe and British Mixed Martial Artist Ashleigh Grimshaw will headline Art of War 17 this Saturday night in Beijing China. Grimshaw is late replacements for UFC vet Junior Assuncao who suffered a training injury and had to pull out of his fight with Lowe on short notice last week.

Said Lowe, a three time NCAA wrestling champion who is currently 16-6 as a professional fighter, “It’s unfortunate that Junior had to drop out of the fight but I’m glad the promoters found another high caliber opponent for me to face. Ashleigh Grimshaw and I will put on a great show for all the Chinese MMA fans on April 30th Art of War 17.”

CEO and Chinese MMA pioneer Andy Pi had this to say about this weekend’s event and his company’s return as the dominant player in Chinese MMA, “We are very excited about this next event as it continues Art of War’s reemergence as the biggest force in Chinese Combat Sports.“

Senhor. Pi, a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Brown Belt and noted entrepreneur in Beijing, says his visionary fighting league is the future of MMA in China. “Art of War Fighting Championships was the first Mixed Martial Arts event in Mainland China and is still the most prestigious. With every event our company will continue to develop the market for MMA in China.

Today China is the biggest untapped market for MMA and Mr. Pi says he knows why and, mais importante, how Art of War FC can capitalize.

“MMA is the most exciting sport in the world, but the way it’s promoted in the US often doesn’t connect with more traditionally minded Chinese sports fans. By combining the energy and excitement MMA with the ancient culture of honor and respect typical of traditional Asian Martial Arts AOW will bring the 21st century’s fastest growing sport to the world’s largest market of sports fan in a new and more powerful way…”
