RALEK GRACIE SET TO RESUME MMA CAREER WITH BELLATOR

 

Санта Моника, Халиф. — (Октомври 26, 2016) - Bellator MMA е горд да обяви подписването на Ралек Грейси (3-0) to an exclusive multi-fight, multi-year contract.

Ralek is the third son of Rorion, the nephew of Royce, Rickson, and Royler Gracie and received his black belt from Grand Master Helio Gracie. The Gracie Family is famous for putting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu on the map around the globe.

На само 22, Ralek made his MMA debut in Japan, where he defeated his opponent, Kastuyori Shibata with a devastating armbar. Nearly a year later, Ralek returned to Japan for his second MMA fight and again was victorious, this time defeating Gahdzhiev Alavutdin with an armbar from the mount. These two bouts led to a highly anticipated matchup with Kazushi Sakuraba, where again the Los Angeles native left “The Land of the Rising Sun” with the victory. That was the last time Ralek would fight under MMA rules, until now.

“I was bred for hand-to-hand combat over generations and I simply can’t ignore that during my physical prime. My destiny is calling me and my opponent is irrelevant, това е отидете време,” Gracie said. “It’s crazy to see where fighting has come since my childhood of seeing everything unfold from behind the scenes. Bellator is really stepping up the opportunities fighters have to compete more often and in different countries and I’m excited to join that movement and test my style in this modern MMA era.”

It has yet to be determined which weight class the 31-year-old will participate in, but expect to see him lace up the gloves for Bellator MMA in early 2017.

БОЙНАТА ЗОНА ММА ПРЕХВЪРЛЯ В МАНЧЕСТЪР, NH;

CZ 60 ДА СЕ РАБОТИ В СЪБОТА, Ноември 19

 

САЛЕМ NH- (Октомври 19, 2016)- Combat Zone MMA, най-продължителната промоция на смесени бойни изкуства в Нова Англия и една най-успешната в североизточната част, премества своите вълнуващи събития, подредени с професионални и аматьорски битки по ММА и кикбокс в Манчестър, NH и връщане към корените си, днес съобщиха съсобствениците Калвин Катар и Джеймисън Катар.

 

След като се обади на наскоро затворения парк Рокингам в Салем, NH дом през последните осем години, Combat Zone идва в Armory Room на място в хотел Radisson в центъра на Манчестър.

 

Armory Room е изключително място, което е идеално подходящо за домакинство на битки и може да се настани удобно до 800 бори фенове. Завършен с открита тухла в цялата стая, той е идеален за CZ събития!

 

Първото събитие, което ще бъде в Aromory Room в Radisson, ще бъде Combat Zone 60 на Събота, Ноември 19.

 

“Много съм развълнуван да върна промоцията у дома там, където всичко започна за първи път в Radisson. Смятаме, че новото място ще ни позволи да направим необходимите промени, за да се харесаме на по-широка аудитория, като същевременно продължаваме да предлагаме екшън битки за нашата лоялна фенска база,” - каза Калвин Катар, който наскоро се върна към действие в клетката и подобри досието си до 16-2 и неговия ранг до #2 сред професионалните пернати в Нова Англия.

 

Братята Катар и сватовете Райън Фенели все още поставят Combat Zone 60 карта заедно, но феновете на битките могат да очакват да бъдат третирани с защитата на титлата на ММА в лека категория, когато претендентът Джералд Маус (4-1) от Бостън се опитва да разкаже пояса на непобедения шампион Дейв Браун (3-0). Кафяв, който е родом от Лакония, NH, спечели колана в последната си битка, когато победи непорочния преди това Шон Мелансън.

 

Това, което се оформя като пореден страхотен и интензивен мач за това, което ще бъде пълна карта на действие, включва професионалната битка за кикбокс между Рей Шоуди, който е треньор в New England Top Team в Windham, NH и приветства Лоуъл, MA, и Мейн винаги е страховит Crowsneck Boutin. Тази битка има потенциални последици за титлата за победителя.

 

Други очаквани и конкурентни, тежки битки са ММА професионалистите Джей Перин 2-2 срещу. Чад Кели 4-2 съвпадение в 135 паунда. и Salem’s Nick Fiore (1-0) срещу. Тейлър Костатино (2-2) състезаващи се като аматьори при тегло на улова 150 паунда.

 

Пълната карта ще бъде обявена скоро.

Possibly no name is growing faster in the MMA community than Ilima-Lei MacFarlane’s, as the 26-year-old flyweight has rapidly climbed the ranks with four consecutive victories and three finishes. The undefeated submission specialist has emerged victorious in her first three bouts under the Scott Coker-led promotion, and finishing both Amber Tackett and Ребека Рут чрез представяне. Hailing from Honolulu, Hawaii, “The Ilimanator” has secured one career knockout victory, който дойде просто 10 seconds into her first professional bout and spread virally around the internet.

The 23-year-old Ducote will look to add to an already impressive 2016 кампания, having earned victories in each of her four fights this year. Ducote’s most recent pair of wins have come under the Bellator MMA umbrella, recording back-to-back second round submission finishes over Brazilian flyweights Bruna Vargas и Kenya Miranda.

Njokuani made his presence felt early in his career, recording finishes in each of his first seven career victories, including six knockouts and six first round finishes. “Chidi Bang Bang” continued to see success with his knockout power, като 10 на неговата 15 career wins came by way of knockout or submission. You’d be hard pressed to find a more consistent fighter than Njokuani right now, the 27-year-old Las Vegas native enters the cage in search of his seventh consecutive victory and 11 на неговата последна 12, кога ще се проведат физически прегледи 2012. Njokuani has won both of his first two bouts under the direction of Bellator MMA since joining the promotion in 2015, with key victories over the likes of Ricky Рейни and Thiago Jambo Goncalves. He hopes to add to that list when he joins his opponent Andre Fialho on Декември 3.

With an unblemished mark of 7-0, Fialho joins his opponent Njokuani as one of the most feared knockout artists in the game. The 22-year-old welterweight has finished each of his seven opponents and tacked on six knockouts. Possibly even more impressive is the manner in which the young Portuguese prospect has defeated his opponents, with six of the seven victories coming in the first round and three in the first minute of action. Since joining the Bellator MMA fray earlier this year, Fialho has recorded first round knockout wins over Manuel Meraz and Rick Reger, proving early in his career that he belongs with the top dogs. We can be sure to see some fireworks fly when Fialho enters the cage inside WinStar World Casino & Resort in Thackerville this December.
