THE ‘RED KING’ RORY MACDONALD LOOKS TO CLAIM HIS BELLATOR MMA THRONE – SIGNING EXCLUSIVE, MULTI-FIGHT CONTRACT WITH THE VIACOM-OWNED PROMOTION

 

ANAHEIM, Calif. (Agosti 26, 2016) – Bellator MMA is elated to formally announce the signing of mixed martial arts superstar Rory MacDonald kwa kipekee, multi-year, multi-fight contract with the Scott Coker-led promotion, making “Red King” the latest in a long line of blockbuster acquisitions for Bellator MMA.

The former No. 1 contender to the UFC welterweight crown is undoubtedly one of the premiere free agent signings in the history of the promotion. The “Red King” has totaled nine career victories under the UFC banner, including wins over current welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, in addition to B.J. Penn and Nate Diaz.

“There’s no denying that Rory MacDonald was the cream of the crop when it comes to free agents in MMA,” Bellator President Scott Coker said. “As I say all the time, if there is a free agent out there, we’re going to talk to them, if they fit our model we’re going to make a hard push to bring them over here. I’m very happy that we were able to work out a deal with Rory, and I can’t wait to see him bring his menacing style to the Bellator cage.”

MacDonald is clearly the most popular active Canadian mixed martial artist since the former UFC welterweight Champion and teammate Georges St. Pierre, whom MacDonald has trained under for years at the world renowned TriStar Gym in Montreal.

There are multiple reasons why I choose to fight for Bellator MMA and Scott Coker,” Rory MacDonald said. “One, they have given me the opportunity to develop and grow a business together. Two, because I already feel respected by the promotion as a professional athlete. And last but not least, because Bellator is offering a setup that no-one in the world can offer me.

At only 27-years-old, MacDonald joins the fray with an impressive professional record of 18-4 and enters a stacked welterweight division of fighters already signed with Bellator, that currently has a world-class champion in Andrey Koreshkov.

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR TOP MAINE LIGHTWEIGHTS

Bangor, Maine (Julai 29, 2016) – Devin Powell was enjoying an evening off from his demanding life as a mixed martial arts instructor and fighter.

He was surrounded by food that probably isn’t on his normal training menu. There were celebratory beverages to fit the loud music and party atmosphere at Xfinity Center, the outdoor concert venue in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

Somehow, Powell heard his phone ring, or felt it vibrate in his pocket. The impending conversation altered his day-after plans considerably.

Powell accepted a return engagement with Jon Lemke at “NEF Presents Dana White: Looking for a Fight,” to be held Ijumaa, Agosti 5 at Cross Insurance Center in Bangor.

“I found out my good friend Jesse Erickson got hurt,” Powell said, “and they asked me to fill in. I said ‘of course.’ Anybody representing UFC, never mind Dana White, if you ever have a chance to fight in front of them, it’s something you want to do if you’re able. It should be a nice, intimate setting.”

Powell (7-1) is the NEF lightweight champion, having secured the strap with a technical knockout of Erickson at “NEF 22: All Roads Lead Here” in April. Lemke (5-5) lost to previous champion Bruce Boyington in a bid for that belt.

The fight will take place five pounds above the lightweight limit at a catch weight of 160.

“It’s a huge opportunity,” said Lemke, who lives in neighboring Brewer. “I’m very grateful. I’m looking forward to fighting in front of probably the most influential person in MMA.”

Their bout is one of eight professional skirmishes to be showcased in front of White, a native of nearby Hermon, and cohorts Din Thomas and Matt Serra. The trio travels the country in pursuit of undiscovered MMA talent in a reality show that is broadcast on White’s YouTube page as well as the UFC Fight Pass subscription-based streamed video service.

Neither man is known to shy away from the spotlight. Lemke stopped Erickson at Bellator 93 in Lewiston two years ago. Powell pushed his winning streak to five with a split-decision triumph Juni 17 over Tommy Marcellino on the World Series of Fighting stage at Foxwoods.

“I know they’re probably here to watch the guys in the main event,” Powell said of White and his entourage, “but I plan to put on a show that they won’t be able to sleep on. With my fighting style, very aggressive and unorthodox, I believe I definitely will get their attention. This sport is a lot about getting the right opportunity and taking advantage of it.”

When asked if he perceived any edge because Powell took the fight on three weeks’ notice, Lemke politely pointed out that he only began preparing for Erickson two weeks prior to that.

Lemke lost to Josh LaBerge juu ya Juni 10.

“I only had a couple extra weeks to prepare. I was still training, but that’s all. I was in pretty good shape but not in fight shape,” Lemke said. “It’s one of those things where they ask you and you’re like, ‘Oh, moja, I really want to do this, but.’ It’s just too big an opportunity not to. It’s not necessarily ideal, but as a fighter, absolutely you’re looking for that challenge, and Devin is one of the best guys in the game around here.”

He learned that first-hand, and in resounding fashion, when the two fighters previously clashed on May 10, 2014. Powell prevailed via choke-out in only 23 sekunde.

That setting was Lemke’s comeback fight after his abrupt withdrawal from a title match against John Ortolani eight months earlier.

“It didn’t go very well last time. There were a lot of distractions and different circumstances for me leading up to that fight. I had to pull out of a title fight before that, which you never want to do. Three-quarters of the battle for me was just getting back in the cage,” Lemke said.

“I’m a completely different fighter now,” he added. “I think I’ve progressed everywhere, not just with my skills but with the approach I take. I’ve had quite a few fights and I’ve learned from both the wins and the losses. You always learn. Sometimes you learn the hard way.”

Lemke and Powell each enter the cage for the fourth time in less than a year. That activity is the reason neither man feels uneasy about accepting such a stern challenge after an abbreviated training camp.

In Powell’s case, fighting is simply a natural extension of his everyday life as owner and head instructor at Nostos MMA in Somersworth, N.H.

“I’m grateful for everything I have. I have a 4-year-old daughter and she likes to come to the academy and train jiu-jitsu,” Powell said. “I have a pretty amazing life. I only have to teach, train and fight. A lot of people don’t get more than a couple hours with their kids every night. We sacrifice a lot for this sport. People only see the 15 minutes of hell. They don’t see everything else.”

Powell is pleased to represent NEF for only the third time in his blossoming career.

“NEF is one of the biggest promotions in the country. They make superstars out of guys from Maine,” Powell said. “I fought for World Series of Fighting, and I don’t want to sound like I’m knocking them, but it was a much smaller show. NEF has a huge following, and now you see them going places like Cape Cod and Bangor, and that can only grow it even more. They do it right, and I’m glad to be able to step in there for them.”

Lemke faces the added pressure of fighting in front of not only White but his hometown fans from the Bangor area.

Many of them are not accustomed to the four-hour round trip for his encounters in Lewiston.

“A fight is still just a fight, and the next fight is the biggest fight regardless. You never know who could be there watching or what could happen as a result,” Lemke said, suggesting that he is more concerned with his opponent. “Devin is a phenomenal fighter. He has a great skill set. He’s highly touted and he has a great record to back it up. It’s definitely the challenge of a lifetime for me. He’s also a great guy outside the cage. I get along with him well. I think we respect each other.”

Powell confirmed those suspicions, although he reiterated that his objective is nothing less than another decisive victory.

“He’s a good guy. I don’t have to go to that deep, dark place. I understand that my job is to hurt someone so badly that the referee has to step in to save his life. It’s a beautiful, violent sport. I respect anyone who has the courage to get in there with the same goals as me,” Powell said. “I’m expecting a brouhaha with Lemke. Yeye ni fujo. He comes to fight. I like to do the same things. The first fight was short-lived. If I’m able to repeat that, I’m sure Dana White will be happy.”

ERICKSON OUT, POWELL IN TO FACE LEMKE IN FRONT OF UFC PRESIDENT

Bangor, Maine (Julai 18, 2016) – When Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) President Dana White comes to Bangor onAgosti 5, 2016 to check out the local talent New England Fights (NEF) has to offer, Jesse “Viking” Erickson (7-5) will unfortunately have to watch from the sidelines. Erickson suffered an injury while training for his bout with Jon Lemke (5-5) previously-scheduled to take place that evening. White will be present to record a future episode of his web series Dana White: Lookinfor a Fight in which professional mixed-martial-artists have a shot at earning a UFC contract based on their performance.

 

Within mere hours of being informed of Erickson’s injury, NEF executives had found a replacement in the form of the promotion’s reigning professional lightweight champion Devin Powell (7-1). The bout will be a non-title contest scheduled for three-rounds at a catchweight of 160-pounds. It is a rematch of a May 2014 NEF fight which Powell won via first-round submission. Should Lemke win the rematch, he will be in line for a title shot in the rubber match.

 

“Kwa mara nyingine tena, I am incredibly thankful and grateful to NEF for making this fight happen,” alisema Lemke. “Getting an opponent change last minute is usually pretty stressful. Not this time, Hata hivyo, as the crew at NEF was on top of it, and the next day I had a new opponent. I am very much looking forward to getting another crack at Devin, as I had a horrible showing in our first fight. Devin is a highly-touted and talented fighter and I expect an all out battle for sure. I have been looking forward to another crack at him for some time and you will see the best Jon Lemke yet.

 

Taking a short notice fight against Lemke was a no brainer,” stated Powell. “No way could I pass on a chance to fight a fellow Mainer a few hours away from my mom’s hometown of Allagash, Maine. Dana, I hope you get your popcorn, because you’re about to see a show. Hell or high water, I’m getting my hand raised.

Olympian and UFC champion Daniel Cormier named Honorary Chairman of Wrestling World Cup in Los Angeles, Juni 11-12

Daniel Cormier, a two-time Olympian in men’s freestyle wrestling and current UFC light heavyweight champion, will serve as the Honorary Chairman of the 2016 World Cup of Freestyle Wrestling, set for The Forum in Los Angeles, Juni 11-12.

Cormier will be supporting the promotional efforts for the World Cup (wrestlingworldcup.com) and encouraging the public to come out to see the action, which will feature the top eight men’s freestyle nations in action.

U.S.. World Cup team will include all six of the 2016 U.S. Olympic freestyle wrestlers. Many of the other nations will also include their 2016 Olympic athletes on their rosters.

"It is a great opportunity. You get to see guys in the final stages of their preparation. During off-Olympic years, you may get to see guys who are not peaked. This is in the phase of when they are peaking for the Olympic Games, two months before the competition. The foreign wrestlers will also be in peak condition. Not only will you get to see our guys at their best, but you get to see them competing against some of the best wrestlers in the world at their peak. It is very rare that we get that kind of opportunity here in the United States,” said Cormier.

This is the third straight year which the World Cup has been held in Los Angeles and hosted at The Forum. Cormier joins two other former wrestlers and major public figures who have served as Honorary Chairman of the World Cup.

Katika 2014, award-winning actor Billy Baldwin was the Honorary Chairman. Katika 2015, Stephen Neal, a World champion wrestler and three-time Super Bowl champion with the NFL New England Patriots, served as the Honorary Chairman.

Cormier had a successful career in international freestyle wrestling. Alikuwa mwanachama wa 2004 U.S. Timu ya Olimpiki, which competed in Athens, Ugiriki, vilevile 2008 U.S. Timu ya Olimpiki, which competed in Beijing, China. Cormier placed fourth at the 2004 Michezo ya Olimpiki. Alikuwa 2007 World bronze medalist and placed fifth in the 2003 World Championships. He wrestled on six straight U.S. World or Olympic Teams, and won six straight U.S. Open national titles.

Cormier, who follows international wrestling closely in spite of his busy schedule as a UFC athlete and a television commentator, is excited about the U.S. team which will compete at the World Cup and at the Olympic Games.

"We have an amazing team this year. A chance to see them live is something you can’t get back after it’s gone. We have one of the better Olympic teams that we have had in a long time,” said Cormier.

A native of Lafayette, ., Cormier was a two-time NJCAA Junior College national champion for Colby CC in Kansas. He went on to Oklahoma State, where he placed second in the 2001 NCAA Div. I Championships, competing for two-time Olympic champion John Smith.

The 37-year-old Cormier trains at American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose alongside fellow UFC standouts such as Cain Velasquez and Luke Rockhold. Since moving to California, he has been impressed by the quality of the wrestling and the culture of the sport in the state.

"Wrestling in California is huge. The state championships draws massive numbers. I have a youth wrestling club, and every weekend, we wrestle in massive tournaments. The kids get to wrestle five, six times a weekend. In the LA area, this is a big deal, for people to be able to see wrestling at such a high level. The last time I was at the World Cup at the Forum, ilikuwa ni ajabu. You can feel the history of the building. The team went out and had a fantastic performance. It will be a big crowd. People should not miss this opportunity to see the best in the world,” said Cormier.

Cormier won a silver medal at the 2005 World Cup which was held in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

"It is the history of the event that make it special. It dates back as far as I can remember. Some of the greatest American wrestlers have won the World Cup. It is a very prestigious event. The World Cup is different than other international events. It brings you back to your days in high school wrestling and college wrestling when you wrestle in dual meets. Your result directly affects the team and its ability to win. I only wrestled in one World Cup, with six years on the World Team and eight years on the national team. Ilikuwa ni uzoefu mkubwa,” said Cormier.

He is excited that wrestling, his favorite sport, will be showcased once again in Los Angeles, U.S. bid city for the 2024 Michezo ya Olimpiki. Having been on two Olympic teams (2004 in Athens and 2008 katika Beijing), Cormier would to see the Olympics hosted in the United States once again.

"LA right now is a great sports city. The World Cup will show that Olympic sports can draw people. We have not had an Olympics in LA since 1984. If the Olympics go back to LA, it will be great. LA is a huge city, a sports city. The people in LA would love it. This is a chance to show that the city can host an Olympic-level competition and be successful. Los Angeles is so diverse. You have everybody in Los Angeles. You have a ton of different cultures in the LA area,” said Cormier.

Cormier has excelled in his Mixed Martial Arts career, kuandaa kuvutia 17-1 record while competing at heavyweight and light heavyweight.

Cormier will not be able to attend the World Cup this year due to training. Cormier is currently preparing for the UFC light heavyweight title fight against Jon “Bones” Jones at UFC 200, which will be held in Las Vegas, Nev. juu ya Julai 9. This is a huge fight, as both of these former wrestlers have held the UFC title belt during their careers. Jones beat Cormier in their only previous battle by decision, a title match during UFC 182 mnamo Januari 3, 2015.

"Preparation is going great. I have had Ed Ruth in training camp to wrestle, Deron Winn in training camp to wrestle. I’ve got a kid from Iowa State coming in to wrestle also. I am wrestling with the best guys I can find to emulate Jon Jones. (Khadjimurad) Gatsalov of Russia was the best wrestler I ever wrestled, but he didn’t have the type of style and the funky ability of Jones. Ed Ruth is a wiry, tricky wrestler. I am bringing in guys who can give me that feel. I was outwrestled the last fight. He pushed me against the fence and took me down two or three times. That is not happening again,” said Cormier.

Cormier has helped with the World Cup in Los Angeles in the past, serving as the Honorary U.S. Team Captain in 2014, sitting with the team mat side and providing support to the athletes and coaches.

The World Cup is the annual international dual meet championships, as the eight best men’s freestyle teams will compete against each other. Katika 2016 World Cup, the United States will be joined by (alphabetically): Azerbaijan, Georgia, India, Iran, Mongolia, Russia and Turkey. Lineups for the other seven teams in the World Cup will be announced shortly.

The United States is slated to face Iran, Azerbaijan and India in Group B competition. Russia headlines a tough Group A pool that also includes Georgia, Turkey and Mongolia.

FU wazi kwa Rais wa UFC Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe!

wtf

By: Rich Bergeron

Wale wanaonijua kibinafsi wangesema mimi ni mtu mwema, mpaka univuke sana, kama, kwa mfano, ikiwa wewe kuwa mada ya ripoti ya uchunguzi ninayofanya kazi, au nishtaki kwa $25 milioni. Wakati mwingine naweza kuchukua vitu kama hiyo kama ishara labda hautaki nijue wewe ni nani na unafanya nini nyuma ya milango iliyofungwa ili kukandamiza watu wanaofanya kazi kwa bidii.

Wiki hii, mtu fulani ambaye hata haniruhusu nimfuate kwenye Twitter (https://twitter.com/danawhite) alinikasirisha hadi mahali ambapo ningeweza tu kufikiria jambo moja la kufanya. Kwa sababu nimeorodheshwa rasmi kwa kila njia na shaba ya UFC, na hata nimewekewa maagizo ya kuzuia dhidi ya kuwasiliana nami moja kwa moja na Fertittas na mpiganaji wowote wa UFC, chaguo langu bora ni kuchapisha diatribe kali hapa nitapiga simu yangu “FUA FU” kwa Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe.

Nina hakika Bw. White hatachukua simu zangu au kujishughulisha na mahojiano moja na mimi. Hivyo, Nitalazimika kutulia kwa FU iliyoandikwa…na FU yenye viwango vingi na anuwai.

FU, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe… kwa wengi, sababu nyingi…nyingi mno kwa chapisho moja dogo la blogi kutenda haki, lakini tuseme Zaidi ya yote FU….

Kwa kile unachofikiria unajua kuhusu Holly Holm…

Hey, Dana, unataka kuzungumza juu ya yako “ufanisi” onyesho la ukweli “Kutafuta Pambano????” Nilikuwa kweli kutafuta vita nilipoangalia hiyo ukweli wa zamani “onyesho la shit” wakati ulitakiwa kumpiga box Tito Ortiz, lakini YEYE kichawi kuungwa mkono katika dakika ya mwisho.

Sasa, wewe, DANA “KUFANYA” NYEUPE, wanamwambia Holly Holm juu ya uamuzi UNADHANI hakufikiria vya kutosha??? Na sasa unafanya kama mtu aliyekasirishwa na Magurudumu yako kwa sababu una mafanikio mawili ya UFC 196 kufanya kazi karibu na kujua jinsi ya kufanya maana ya namna fulani.

Boo “ufanisi” hoo, rafiki.

Karibu kwa jinsi mambo hayaendi kama ilivyopangwa wakati mwingine katika biashara ya vita, chomo lisilo na shukrani.

Je! Unataka kuwa “ufanisi” Promoter, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe???

Holly Holm Alikuwa Bingwa wa Bantamweight wa UFC wakati alimruhusu Meneja WAKE (sio Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe) kujadili vita vya Tate kwa niaba yake, na alijua (na meneja wake wa muda mrefu alijua, pia) kile alikuwa akifanya na kile alitaka. Na nadhani “ufanisi” nini, Dana? Alitaka kupigana.

Pole, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe, lakini Holly hakutaka kukaa juu ya “ufanisi” kando akisubiri Ronda Rousey ammalize “ufanisi” REMAKE NYUMBANI!

Holly alitaka kwenda kufanya kazi… lakini kwa bahati mbaya lazima afanye kazi kwa bosi ambaye hajui ni nini kuingia katika ofisi yake na kushughulikia mzigo wake wa kazi wa kila siku kwa ukakamavu kama huo, darasani, utu na neema.

Na nadhani labda anaangalia nyuma kidogo tofauti na wewe, Dana, bila “ufanisi” anajuta chochote kwa kumweka kabisa katika vita hiyo na kuambukizwa tu katika eneo lake moja la udhaifu katika vita ambapo angeweza kushinda pambano la raundi tatu. Labda ikiwa ungekuwa mpiganaji, Dana, unaweza kupata dhana hiyo nzima. Labda kupoteza katika kesi hii kunamfanya awe bora zaidi, nguvu, na kudumu zaidi kama msanii aliyechanganywa msanii wa kijeshi. Ni nani anayetoa lawama ikiwa inamfanya asiwe na soko machoni pako? Unajua nini kweli, hata hivyo?

BILA KUFANYA, Dana “Kufanya kazi” Nyeupe, Holly kweli anamheshimu Miesha Tate na akafikiria itakuwa changamoto kupigana naye. Yeah, alipoteza, lakini jamani, alikuwa sahihi kabisa juu ya kuwa changamoto. Nadhani vita vitashuka kama moja ya vita kubwa zaidi katika historia ya MMA ya kike.

Sasa, kwanini usifungue yako “ufanisi” macho, Dana, angalia pambano tena, na acha kupiga kelele juu ya kile kinachopaswa kutokea katika ngome hiyo haujawahi kupigana ndani yako mwenyewe.

Shukuru una bingwa uliyelipa tu $92,000 katika pambana kulipa (kabla ya bonasi) kuchukua mkanda wa shirika lako kutoka kwa msichana ALIYETAKA KUSHINDA (na kulipwa $500,000 tu kuwa huko). Huenda isiwe vile ulivyotarajia, lakini wasiwasi unaohisi juu yake ndivyo UNAVYOTSIKIA kuhisi kwa kuwa kifuko cha kifuko kama hicho kwa wapiganaji ambao waliunda UFC.

Maswali yangu makubwa juu ya mada hii kwa Dana ni: Kwanini wewe upendeleo, punda mwerevu ambaye hawezi kujisumbua kumpa Miesha wakati wa siku KWA AJILI YA KAZI YAKE YOTE NGUMU? Kwa nini huwezi kutoa sifa pale inapofaa…pande zote mbili za pambano hilo? Kwa nini huwezi kufunga “ufanisi” juu ya kile unachofikiria Holly au usimamizi wake anapaswa kuwa nao au angeweza kungojea?

Sio nafasi yako kutazama nyuma 20/20 kuona nyuma na kutenda kama Holly na meneja wake walipaswa kwenda kwa Nostradamus wote kwenye pambano hili wakati kwa kweli haukuona ujanja huu unakuja, ama, wewe kung'aa yenye kichwa cha kuba.

Wapiganaji “ufanisi” kupambana, Dana. Ndio hao “ufanisi” fanya, ambayo unapaswa kujua, kwa kuwa nina hakika umewahi kuwa “ufanisi” meneja wa wapiganaji wa MMA mwenyewe. Ndiyo, hiyo ilikuwa miezi mingi iliyopita, lakini ungewezaje kusahau?

Wapiganaji hawakai juu ya punda wao kwenye ndege za kampuni na husimama kwenye podiums mbele ya waandishi wa habari siku nzima ili kupata “ufanisi” malipo kidogo ya shirika lako hulipa wengi wao. Wapiganaji wengi hawawezi kusubiri kuzunguka kwa shit kutokea au kwa mtu “thamani” ya kutosha machoni pako kuongeza na kupigana nao.

Wapiganaji wengine wanahitaji kulisha watoto wao. Wote wanahitaji kulipa bili zao na kwa kila kitu kingine kinachohusika na kambi za mafunzo, gharama za maisha ya kila siku, kusafiri na gharama yoyote ya bima ya matibabu haifuniki wakati wanapaswa kushughulikia majeraha yanayokusumbua. Yako mpango mzuri wa Reebok ilifanya iwe vigumu kupata wadhamini wengine wowote wa nje kusaidia kulipia kitu kama hicho kwa wapiganaji wengi, Dana.

Karibu uuze na usahau ulikotoka, Dana. Ulikuwa unajali zaidi wapiganaji. Sasa unatenda kama kupigana kwenye ngome ni kama kufanya nyingine yoyote 9-5 kazi. Sio. Ni “ufanisi” kazi ngumu.

Hivyo, yeah, Holly alichagua kupigana badala ya kusubiri Rousey kuwa tayari kwa mchezo wa marudiano. Na unafikiri anahitaji maoni yako sasa kwa kuwa kila kitu hakikufanya kazi kama ilivyopangwa kwa nyinyi wawili?

FU, Dana.

Anaumia vibaya sana kuliko wewe, na ninaweza guaran-effing-tee hiyo.

Oh…na…kwa njia…wapiganaji wanawajibika zaidi kwa ukuaji na mafanikio ya shirika la UFC / Zuffa kuliko ulivyowahi kuwa. Na hayo ni mazungumzo ya kweli, wewe tajiri kidogo na fimbo juu ya punda wako kwa sababu haukuwa mzuri katika maisha yako kuwa na vita vyako rasmi.

Hivyo, pitia tata ya Mungu na ujifunze kuheshimu wapiganaji wako WOTE, sio wale tu ambao unataka kuona wanashinda kwa sababu unaweza kufikiria unaweza kufanya kazi nao vizuri au unafikiria watahamisha shirika katika mwelekeo bora. Heshimu juhudi, sadaka na maumivu wapiganaji wako WOTE hupitia kila siku na kufikia mahali wanafika. Huo mkanda uliouweka kiunoni mwa Miesha ULIPATA, na usifikirie kuwa ni “ufanisi” baridi kuita ukweli kwamba Holly Holm alikuwa na ujasiri wa kumkabili Miesha Tate “kosa.”

Ni pete mashimo, haswa wakati ningefikiria kuwa kukupa kipaza sauti kuzungumza juu ya MMA wakati wote lilikuwa KOSA kubwa zaidi katika mchezo huo, kipindi! Mtu yeyote ambaye angejaribu kumwangusha bingwa wa zamani chini ya kigingi kwa njia hiyo katika shirika lake mwenyewe hastahili kutambuliwa kama rais wa shirika hilo.

Huna kidokezo ni nini hasa kupigana, na ukosoaji wako wa Holly Holm unaniambia huwezi kuelewa akili iliyomwongoza kuchukua pambano la Tate na sio kungojea mwaka bila kazi kwa Ronda “ufanisi” Amka kuwa tayari kuonekana kwenye moja ya maonyesho yako ya thamani.

Hivyo, FU Dana White kwa kumtibu bingwa wako wa zamani kama yeye ni mjinga ambaye hajui kudhibiti kazi yake mwenyewe bila wewe kumpumbaza mjinga wako, kichwa kipara ndani yake. Faini ya Holly bila ushauri wako, na anamwamini meneja wake, ambayo inaweza kuwa kitu ambacho hujui, lakini kwa watu wengine ni ukweli wa kufanya biashara na watu halali.

 

FU, Dana kwa kuwa balozi masikini wa mchezo, kutowaheshimu wapiganaji waliotoka damu (na wakati mwingine hupata majeraha ya maisha yote) kwako na mchezo, na kudharau kabisa na kushindwa kuelewa ni nini inachukua kweli kuwa mpiganaji mtaalamu ambaye kwa kweli anashindana na wapiganaji wengine…

Je! Unakumbuka siku ambazo ilibidi utulie kwa kuwa mwalimu wa mazoezi ya chini ya ndondi kwa sababu mkufunzi wako wa ndondi Boston alikupiga kofi sana sikio mara moja? Hujawahi kuwa na pambano moja la ushindani katika maisha yako, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na hiyo ni UKWELI WA NYARAKA!

Je! Unawahi hata kutazama nyuma katika siku hizo kabla ya Fertittas iliyolishwa kijiko kukusaidia kukata tamaa yako, ubinafsi, punda wa kujiona katika nafasi ya RASMI YA UFC MOUTHPIECE?

Je! Unazikumbuka hizo “nywele” siku ulipopuliza $40 milioni ya fedha za Fertitta ili kutekeleza “Hadithi ya Zuffa” wakati wakidai sifa kwa shaba ya UFC ilihalalisha mchezo huo na kuidhibiti yote kwa yako “ufanisi” nafsi? Kana kwamba sio mpiganiaji mmoja au mtaalamu mwingine yeyote wa tasnia ambaye alitangulia MMA kabla ya kutumbukiza miguu yako yenye tamaa ndani yake ilikuwa na uhusiano wowote nayo?

Mama yako anakumbuka hizo “cana alikuwa mgombea” siku, Dana..wakati ulifikiri unaweza kuwa na vita halisi na mwanadamu mwingine. Mama yako mwenyewe anakumbuka ingawa wewe na mmoja wa marafiki wako waovu walijaribu kumnyamazisha, BASH YAKE MTANDAONI, na hata kumchagua KITABU, pia.

Je! Unakumbuka siku ambazo hata Floyd Mayweather, Jr. nilidhani uko poa, nyuma wakati dereva wako wa kila siku alikuwa “ufanisi” Honda, Dana? Floyd Anakumbuka. Alikujua zamani unaweza kumudu kulipia malipo ya kila mwaka ya mtu wa kawaida kwa mkono mmoja wa poker.

Uko mahali tofauti sasa, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na ni mahali pa udanganyifu. Kama kwenye sayari ya mbali unayoishi, watu kweli wanakuamini, uaminifu, kweli “ufanisi” ujue ni nini haswa kuwa “ufanisi” mpiganaji? Je! Unaamini kwa kweli wewe kwa namna yoyote unaweza kujua KWELI hisia hiyo?

KWELI?

Unajua mpambanaji ni nini, sio wewe, Dana? Mpiganaji ni mwanamume au mwanamke ambaye ana ujasiri wa kujitolea katika vita visivyo na silaha dhidi ya mwanamume au mwanamke halisi badala ya kukosoa tu juu na chini wavulana na wasichana ambao wana ujasiri wa kusimama kutoka kwa mwanadamu mwingine wakati akijua na kuingiza ndani kuwa lengo linalokubalika ni kuangamizana kimwili.

Mpiganaji, kwa maneno rahisi zaidi, ni “anayepigana.” Na hebu tuwe wazi juu ya moja “ufanisi” kitu, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, Najua wapiganaji, na WEWE si mpiganaji.

Wewe si kama mpiganaji, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe, na wewe kamwe “ufanisi” itakuwa. Wewe ni dhaifu sana, wote kimwili na kiakili. Mpaka tutakapoona unapitia kambi ya mazoezi ya wiki sita na kisha uingie kwenye ngome dhidi ya mtu na kumpiga punda, hatupaswi kuwa na kusikiliza moja damn “cana,” “lazima,” au “willa” kutoka kinywa chako cha mahindi juu ya kile unafikiria juu ya utendaji wa mpiganaji wowote au mchakato wa kufanya uamuzi. Watu hao wana ujasiri wa kufanya kile USICHOFANYA mwenyewe, na unapaswa kuheshimu hiyo.

FU Dana Nyeupe…Kwa kutowatambua wapiganaji wa kweli kama Miesha Tate na Nate Diaz ambao wanaendelea nayo bila kujali nini na KAMWE wanaonekana kupata HESHIMA yako ya mwisho….

Nate Diaz alijitokeza kupambana na Conor McGregor kwa sababu. Hakuwa na chochote cha kupoteza, na hakutishwa hata kidogo. Yeye famoulsy alienda kwenye runinga na Fox Sports 1 kwenye skrini iliyogawanyika na Conor kabla ya pambano hilo la uzani wa uzito wa juu na kusema kwamba nemesis yake tayari ilikuwa imesongwa mbele, “na viwete viwili.” Diaz pia alikuwa na silika kamili ya kuongeza kwa aibu kwamba hasara za kuzisonga za McGregor zilitokea, “kama wiki iliyopita.”

Diaz alimpiga Conor kwenye mchezo wa majadiliano ya kichekesho muda mrefu kabla hajawahi kumpiga chini na kutelezesha chongo hiyo shingoni. Vyombo vya habari vilivyoundwa na pambano hilo la freakshow linaweza kuwa limekomesha kuongezeka kwa biashara yako kubwa, ujasiri, bingwa wa joka mwenye vichwa sita, lakini iliunda monster mpya kwa wakati mmoja. Na yeye ni chuki ya Reebok, scowling, kuapa, Stockton-kumpiga Mama-F $ # mfalme MNYAMA ambaye hajali kile mtu mwingine anafikiria juu ya kile anachofanya au anasema.

Unaweza kudhani Diaz na tabia yake ni “mbaya kwa biashara,” lakini nadhani ushindi wake ndio kitu bora zaidi ambacho kingeweza kutokea kwa nyinyi nyote mnaotumia punks zinazoendesha UFC. Inathibitisha mara moja na kwa yote kwamba haudhibiti ulimwengu wa MMA.

Nate Diaz alienda bila heshima na sifa kwa kuwa painia wa MMA na askari mzuri wa UFC kwa muda mrefu sana. Uchungu ulianza na kuchemka ndani yake, na nilipenda kila sekunde yake kuiacha imiminwe katika mahojiano ya baada ya vita baada ya kuzima shoka nje ya Conor hadi bloke ya Ireland ilipiga bomba “ufanisi” nje na kumwacha Dana White akimiminika kwa usingizi kwa mawazo ya kuwa na bongera kumpongeza mtu ambaye amekuwa adui zaidi kuliko mtu wa wakubwa “timu.”

Nguvu zaidi kwa Nate na wazimu wote, kukasirika, katika-uso wako Diaz kaka aina huko nje kwenye UFC ambaye atapambana na Dana “ufanisi” Moto mkali wa White na mazungumzo zaidi ya ujasiri na mazungumzo yao wenyewe. Wanaweza kusema kila wakati, “Nilijifunza kwa kukutazama, Bald baba!”

Ama Miesha Tate, anastahili heshima ya kweli na kupongezwa kwa kuwa champ sasa baada ya kujiondoa kwenye mkeka mara mbili mbele ya hasara kubwa kwa Rousey. Kudos kwa Tate kwa kuendelea na kazi yake na bila kukoma akilenga kupata na hiyo armbar ya Rousey mara moja na kwa wote.

Ingawa Miesha hakuwahi kutatua shida hiyo ya uwasilishaji wa Rousey, kujaribu kwa gharama zote kupata ufa mwingine kwenye ukanda uliolipwa gawio katika UFC 196. Tabia yake ya kuacha kamwe ilimwongoza kwa fursa ya maisha, na yeye alitumia herufi kubwa juu yake. Sasa, Dana, lazima ulipe mwanamke huyu mchanga kile mashabiki wake wengi wangesema alikuwa anafaa zamani.

Na sasa lazima umtendee Tate kwa heshima na shukrani kwa mara moja katika maisha yako ya kutoshukuru, Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe. Najua lazima itakuuma sana kumpa mwanamke huyu mchanga sifa ambayo amefanya kazi ngumu sana, kwa sababu labda aligusa ujasiri wakati alikuita hapo zamani kwa kuwa mtu wa kweli asiye na ujinga na asiye na heshima wewe ni kweli. Alikuwa sahihi, na ulikuwa umekosea juu ya jinsi alivyo mzuri katika kupigana. Halafu tena, je, wewe pia haukukosea juu ya wanawake wanaopigana kwenye ngome, kipindi?

Hivyo, HUTAKI kuwa mpiganaji, Mr. Nyeupe? Kisha kaa kando na uwaache watu ambao HAWATAKI kuwa wapiganaji waende kupigania wewe ili uweze kupanda ulimwenguni kwa ndege yako na kutenda kama unajua nini “ufanisi” unazungumza wakati unaposimama mbele ya kipaza sauti kuelezea wanariadha wa kweli wa mchezo huo na kile wanafanya ili kujipatia mapato katika sanaa ya kijeshi iliyochanganywa.

Mstari kutoka Dana ambao unanijulikana zaidi kama BS kamili katika dhihaka hii yote ni huu:

"Ni kijana wa zamani wa ndondi ambaye anadhani yeye ni mwerevu na sivyo,”White alisema juu ya Fresquez [Meneja wa Holm]. "Ninajisikia vibaya kwa Holly kwa sababu sijui ikiwa anajua alichopoteza."

Nina mengine mawili tu “ufanisi” maswali kwako Dana “ufanisi” Nyeupe…

1.) Ni nini kinachokufanya ufikiri wewe uko katika yoyote “ufanisi” msimamo wa KILA kujua au kuelewa ni nini Holly Holm alipoteza usiku mwingine? Mbali na mikono mbaya ya poker na tani za heshima, kitu pekee ambacho umewahi kupoteza ni akili yako.

2.) Je! Nukuu yako ya backhanded juu ya meneja wa Holm haielezei tabia yako mwenyewe nzuri zaidi kuliko ile ya Mr.. Fresco?

NA…ikiwa tu baada ya kusoma haya yote bado ANAhitaji sababu nyingine ya kuwa na nyama ya ng'ombe na Baldfather:
