COMPLETE BELLATOR 150 PHOTOS HERE

Mulvane, Maig. (Febrer 26, 2015) – A week removed from the most watched Bellator MMA event in company history, the Scott Coker-led promotion returned to action on SPIKE with "Bellator 150: Kongo vs. Queiroz,” an event that delivered five spectacular main card fights.

 

En l'esdeveniment principal de la nit, Cheick Kongo (24-10-2) intelligently managed the distance between he and Vinicius Spartan (8-4), kicking and jabbing his way to a split decision victory (30-27, 28-29, 29-28).

 

Spartan did have his moments during the heavyweight encounter, securing takedowns in rounds two and three, followed by a knockdown late. Però al final, Kongo received the benefit of the doubt from the Kansas-appointed judges. The Frenchman has now won two straight, and improved to 6-2 overall under the Bellator MMA banner.

It only took David Rickels (17-4) three minutes and 49 seconds to finish Bobby Cooper (12-6) in front of a sellout crowd at Kansas Star Arena on Friday. Both men had their moments during the action, but after a knee to the body dropped Cooper to his knees, “The Caveman” pummelled his foe with hammerfists until referee John McCarthy called a stop to the action.

Kendall Grove (23-15) detingut Francisco França (13-4-1) with a vicious punch 35 segons a la segona ronda, winning by knockout. The victory was an emotional one for “Da Spyder,” who recently lost his brother and made it clear his performance was dedicated to his late sibling. Grove has now won three of his last four tilts, all via finish.

Chuka Willis (7-2) mà Gaston Reyno (5-1) the first defeat of his mixed martial arts career on Friday, guanyar per decisió unànime (29-28, 30-27, 30-27). The scrap went back-and-forth over the course of 15 acta, with multiple submission attempts and knockdowns by both men. But in the end – much to the delight of the partisan crowd – Willis earned the nod.

Former Shamrock FC Flyweight Champion Rebecca Ruth (6-1) derrotat Lena Ovchynnikova (10-4) per decisió unànime (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) in the opening main card fight at "Bellator 150: Kongo vs. Queiroz.” For “Ruthless” the win is the first of her career via the judges’ scorecards and extended her current winning streak to four straight.

Carvalho’s second-round body kick knockout of Brandon Halsey a "Bellator 144: Halsey vs. Carvalho" was the third biggest oddsmaker upset in 2015, and extended his current winning streak to 12. The 29-year-old will be making his fourth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner and has an impressive finishing rate of 83 per cent.

With a resume of knockouts as violent as Manhoef, it’s no surprise the Dutch competitor has been given the nickname of “No Mercy.” Known for his relentless striking style, the former K-1 and Strikeforce competitor is fresh off his emphatic knockout of HISAKI Kato a "Bellator 146: Manhoef vs. Kato” al novembre. Now the 39-year-old is in position to lay claim to the Bellator 185-pound MMA title, before returning to kickboxing competition in the newly founded Bellator Kickboxing league.

 

It’s hard to find a Bellator MMA fighter with as many memorable moments for the Scott Coker-led promotion as Pat Curran. The former featherweight kingpin has been involved in wars with fighters the likes of: current champion Daniel Straus, Patricio Freire, Daniel Weichel, i Joe Warren. Now “Paddy Mike” sets his sights on “Insane,” in a bout that surely has future title implications at stake.

 

Karakhanyan made a splash in his return to Bellator MMA in 2015, ofegant Bubba Jenkins in his first fight for the Viacom-owned promotion since 2011. Ara, the Millenia MMA standout will put his knack for submitting opponents (14x) to the test against Curran, a fighter who has only been submitted once in 28-fights.

Meet Tomas Yu WMMAA Vice President

Leave a comment
MONTE CARLO, Mònaco (Febrer 25, 2016)- Associació Mundial MMA (WMMAA) vice president Tomas Yu, d'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. A l'edat 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 com a adolescent, tot el camí fins ara, 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: “Bé, as an entrepreneur, I’m never satisfied, I always see ways to do things better but the reality is that, al 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. Bé, last year that dream came true… sobre 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, creient: ‘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, el més important, 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. Pots
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.”

Crowsneck Boutin, a regular on NEF MMA cards since 2012, made his professional boxing debut earlier this month on the “NEF 21” event in Lewiston. He fought Joel Bishop (0-0-2) to a draw in an exciting slugfest that had the Colisée crowd on the edge of its collective seat. Boutin, considered the underdog in that bout, expertly worked his jab to control the first two rounds of the fight. Like the Bishop match, Boutin is preparing for another war with Montella on Abril 23.

 

“Brandon is a very tough opponent,” va dir Boutin. “He’s going to present me with many obstacles. My training is grueling and I’ll be prepared for a war.”

 

Brandon Montella is a 1998 graduate of Carrabec High School in North Anson, Maine. Following graduation, Montella es va unir al Cos de Marines dels Estats Units (USMC) and served until 2003 with an honorable discharge.

“Coming back home from to Maine after all these years to fight in a place of such history is an amazing feeling,” said Montella. “It will bring my friends and family from the past and the present together under one roof for an awesome event.”

 

Montella had a very successful amateur boxing career with a final record of 14-7. En 2011, he won the prestigious Rocky Marciano Tournament. Montella went on to win the New England Golden Gloves the following year. Es va convertir en professional en 2015 and has won his first three bouts with two finishes.

 

“As far as my opponent Crowsneck Boutin, I have seen his fights and read his back story,” Montella continued. “What I see is a man like myself – someone who is determined to change his life and take matters into his own hands instead of sitting around like too many men do today. When two men as determined as we are get in the ring in front of a large crowd, magic happens. We grow larger than life and the fans get one hell of a treat.”

"Ells,"Qui ha lluitat per a promocions de renom mundial de la talla de World Extreme Cagefighting i Shooto des 2003, estaran competint per al 11º temps sota l'estendard Bellator MMA. El 34-anys d'edat, és actualment enmig d'una ratxa de quatre baralles i ha sortit victoriós en set dels seus últims vuit trossos. En la seva última baralla, Galvao va acabar Joe Warren a "Bellator 135: Warren vs. Galvao " via submission to win his first-ever championship and fulfil a promise he made to his mother before her unfortunate passing.

 

Mentrestant, Dantas es busca duplicar l'èxit que va tenir en contra Galvao en la seva primera reunió, which resulted in a second-round knockout at “Bellator 89.” Last May, the 27-year-old Nova Uniao product dispelled of Mike Richman per decisió unànime en "Bellator 137: Halsey vs. Grove ". La temporada de Bellator 5 Bantamweight Tournament winner is looking to become a two-time bantamweight champion come Octubre 23.

 

Kongo will be making his eighth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, looking to add to his impressive promotional mark of 5-2. The Parisian native has fought a who’s who in the mixed martial arts landscape, with notable wins against Mirko Cro Cop, Pat Barry, Matt Mitrione, and Alexander Volkov already on his record. In his last outing – which just so happened to be inside the Kansas Star Arena — Kongo impressively defeated Volkov via unanimous decision.

 

After nearly two years out of action, Queiroz returned to the Bellator MMA cage against Ewerton Teixeira a "Bellator 139: Kongo vs. Volkov," defeating his fellow Brazilian opponent via second round arm-triangle choke. “Spartan” hopes to plant the seeds for a busy 2016 with the matchup against Kongo, where a win can undoubtedly place him in the midst of the heavyweight title picture.

 

Grove capped off 2015 amb una eliminatòria emfàtica de Joey Beltrán a "Bellator 143: Warren vs. Davis," al setembre. The winner of“The Ultimate Fighter: 3," ha lluitat professionalment des de llavors 2003 for promotions all around the world, notably ProElite and UFC.

A veteran of Strikeforce, “Kiko” France has strung together a five-fight winning streak as of late, most recently handing the formerly undefeated Ben Reiter the first loss of his young career at "Bellator 146: Kato vs. Manhoef ". It’s safe to classify the 33-year-old Arizona native as a “submission specialist,"Amb 12 de la seva 13 wins as a professional coming by way of making his opponent tap.

 

A Bellator MMA event in Mulvane, Kansas just wouldn’t be the same without “The Caveman,” who will return to action for the first time since competing against Michael Chandler al novembre passat. Rickels always comes ready to put on a show, ja sigui en el seu camí a la gàbia, o quan ell està prenent en un qui és qui de Bellator MMA talent de pes lleuger. The 27-year-old will be making his 16ºappearance under the promotional banner.

 

The last time Bobby Cooper fought inside the Kansas Star Arena, he took home a closely contested split decision victory over“Bellator 147” co-headliner Pablo Villaseca. Ara, “Super Duper” will look to move to 3-0 under the Bellator MMA banner when he faces Rickels in hostile territory. It’s worth noting that the Missouri native has only lost twice in his last eight MMA appearances.

 

Hailing from Ukraine, Ovchynnikova will enter the fray fresh off a new exclusive, multi-fight contract with Bellator MMA. “Hunter” has previously fought the likes of Joanne Calderwood and at only 28-years-old has already competed professionally since 2006. Ara, Ovchynnikova looks to solidify herself as a top contender in the budding women’s flyweight division on Febrer 26 against a tough foe in Ruth.

 

“Becky” Ruth was undefeated in 2015, winning all three of her matchups by technical knockout under the Shamrock Fighting Championships banner. The lone loss on the Missouri native’s record came against Resurrection Fighting Alliance champion Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger, via controversial split decision.

NEF22_FB_Timeline01

Lewiston, Maine (Febrer 22, 2016) - Lluites de Nova Anglaterra (NEF), Número u de la promoció de lluita regional d'Amèrica, celebrarà el seu proper esdeveniment, “NEF 22: TOTS ELS CAMINS CONDUEIXEN AQUÍ” a Dissabte, Abril 22, 2016al Androscoggin Banc Coliseu a Lewiston, Maine. La carta de lluita inclourà una barreja d'arts marcials mixtes (MMA) i combats de boxa professional. El dia d'avui, NEF va anunciar l'esdeveniment principal de la part de boxa del “NEF 22” cartellera. Campió del pes welter júnior del nord-est Brandon “El Canó” Berry (11-1, 7 KOs) s'enfrontarà a James Lester (10-9, 4 KOs) en un no títol, combat de sis rondes a 140 lliures.

 

Berry, l'orgull de la petita ciutat de West Forks, Maine, ha brillat des que va tornar d'una lesió a l'espatlla l'any passat. Ha guanyat els seus últims tres consecutius, inclòs un nocaut tècnic (QUI) parada de Tollison Lewis (2-1, 1 KO) a principis d'aquest mes a Lewiston. La propera lluita amb Lester farà que Berry torni a la seva divisió nativa de pes welter júnior de 140 lliures per primera vegada des de la seva lesió.. Les tres victòries recents han arribat a les divisions de pes welter més pesat i súper welter.

 

“23 d'abril serà un gran punt d'inflexió en la meva carrera de boxa,” va dir en Berry quan li van arribar per comentar. “Aquesta serà la quarta vegada que encapçalar la part de boxa de NEF de l'esdeveniment, i vull donar les gràcies a Nick (DiSalvo, Promotor NEF), Mate (Peterson, Casament de NEF) i Pete (Tymbor, Director d'Operacions de Boxa de NEF) per l'oportunitat. Vaig demanar un repte i tornar-lo al meu pes de lluita habitual de 140 lliures, i això és el que estic aconseguint amb James Lester de Detroit. Crec que el públic estarà molt content i impressionat amb el nivell de talent que aporta James. Aquesta és una gran prova per a mi i espero que amb nou setmanes per preparar sigui una prova que pugui superar. Ell aporta tant a la taula que em pot donar problemes al ring, així que em mostro res menys que 100% serà inacceptable.

 

“Ho sé, Tommy (Duquette), Ed (LaVache), Luke (Yetten) i la resta de Boston Boxing m'empenyrà al límit i em portarà al ring preparat. James Lester ha estat al voltant i ha lluitat contra uns molt bons lluitadors. Va tenir una increïble carrera amateur, i ha passat anys entrenant en una de les instal·lacions de boxa més llegendàries del món, el gimnàs Kronk. Qui no vol veure aquesta lluita? Ens veiem a tots 23 d'abril, i com sempre, moltes gràcies a tots pel suport increïble. La venda d'entrades és irreal.”

 

Com va assenyalar Berry, James Lester és un producte del famós Kronk Gym de Detroit, Michigan. Va ser allà on va perfeccionar el seu ofici al costat de campions del món com Thomas “Sicario” Hearns (61-5-1, 48 KOs), Oscar De La Hoya (39-6, 30 KOs), Lennox Lewis (41-2-1, 32 KOs) i Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs), per nomenar uns quants, sota el llegendari entrenador Emanuel Steward. Com amateur, Lester es va classificar a nivell nacional al número dos. Va competir contra equips com el futur olímpic Andre Dirrell (24-2, 16 KOs) i el futur campió de pes súper mitjà del CMB Anthony Dirrell (28-1-1, 22 KOs) mentre que a les files d'aficionats. El combat amb Berry serà la segona vegada que Lester s'aventura a Nova Anglaterra en la seva carrera professional. Va competir amb una targeta a Worcester, Massachusetts a 2011. Lester té ganes de tornar a la regió.

 

“Lluitar contra Brandon serà emocionant, i estic preparat per a qualsevol cosa que hagi de portar,” va dir en Lester. “La lluita a Nova Anglaterra va ser increïble fa uns anys contra Ryan Kielczewski (24-1, 7 KOs). Vaig conèixer gent molt bona allà i no puc esperar per tornar a fer-los un espectacle.”

Pit 5000 Statement on Post-Fight Condition

Statement from the Harris Family:

 

The Harris Family would like to inform Dada’s friends and fans that Dada is ok and resting comfortably in a Houston area Hospital under the care of an incredible staff of doctors and nurses.

The doctors have now informed us that Dada had accumulated extremely high levels of potassium in his blood which led to severe dehydration, fatigue and renal failure. The high potassium levels were likely caused by his 40lbs weight loss in preparation for the fight.

Thanks to the EMTs and doctors, Dada is now recovering nicely.

Dada showed the heart of a lion in the cage- not backing down throughout. He worked extremely hard preparing for the fight and stepped forward for 3 rounds against a tough veteran. He kept digging through the adversity- leaving it all in the cage for his fans and supporters. You can never take that away from him.

We’d like to thank all those who have supported Dada as well as express our sincere appreciation to Scott Coker, and the good people at BELLATOR and Spike who have been on-site to visit Dada and support the family.

We ask for the public and media to respect Dada’s privacy as he recovers.
