FORMER UFC STANDOUT ARTEM LOBOV JOINS BARE KNUCKLE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP WITH EXCLUSIVE MULTI-FIGHT DEAL


Russian-Born Stablemate of Conor McGregor
To Make BKFC Debut at BKFC 6 април 20 в
Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Г-ЦА



PHILADELPHIA (Февруари 13, 2019) – Former UFC standout Артьом Lobov, a stablemate of Conor McGregor, has requested his release from UFC in order to sign an exclusive multi-fight deal with Шампионат по битка с голи кокалчета(BKFC) and continue his combat sports career with BKFC as the organization prepares for a banner year.

I feel Artem is a great addition to our roster and his style is made for this sport,” каза основателят на BKFC и президентът Дейвид Фелдман. “Attracting and signing a guy with the following that Artem has is a perfect match for where we are right now as an organization. I think this signing speaks volumes for the direction BKFC is heading.

Lobov will be making his BKFC debut on Saturday, Април 20 as part of BKFC 6, which will take place at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Г-ЦА. He’ll face Biloxi native and fellow UFC veteran Jason Knight.

Jason Knight is an action, hard-nosed fighter who will be fighting in his hometown for the first time in a long time,” continued Feldman. “This is a true crossroads fight. I personally think this is a Fight of the Year candidate.

I cannot wait to fight for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship,” said Lobov. “I have been following them since the beginning. I love what they are doing and I thank David Feldman for believing in me. I look forward to this new stage in my career and I think it has the perfect ruleset for me to perform at my best ability. I look forward to becoming a star in this sport.

The 32-year-old fighter from Russia made his name on Season 22 на The Ultimate Fighter as part of Team McGregor, where he worked his way to the finals of the tournament before losing to Ryan Hall. He challenged Cub Swanson in a UFC main event in 2016, after picking up victories over Chris Avila and Alex White. While he lost his last three UFC bouts by decision, he owns 13 professional MMA wins and will take that experience into BKFC action.

Fire Fist Boxing fighters set for UFC Fight Pass bouts in St. Petersburg


Tampa, FL (Февруари 13, 2019) – Fire Fist Boxing’s Connor “The Kid” Coyle, Willian “Baby Face” Silva and Mark Reyes Jr. will all fight as part of a UFC Fight Pass card Saturday, Февруари 16 at the Coliseum in St. Petersburg, FL.

This excellent evening of boxing is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions in association with Rite Hook Promotions.

Headlining the telecast is an eight round middleweight showdown between Coyle and Travis “Dirty Red” Scott.

Splitting time between his native Ireland and St. Petersburg, FL, Coyle’s a perfect 8-0 с 3 победи с нокаут. He’s become a big draw in the Tampa-St Pete area and most recently scored a sixth round TKO of Danny Pastrana. The talented Coyle has been featured as a prospect to watch out for by media members from both sides of the pond.

Fighting out of Baton Rouge, LA, Scott is Coyle’s most experienced foe to date. The 38-year-old has an excellent 19-4 професионална счетоводна книга с 5 Нокаута. A true veteran of the sport, Scott turned pro in 2004 when Coyle was 14.

Welterweight phenom Mark Reyes Jr of Tampa, FL risks his 0 against fellow unbeaten Rodrigo Tatijewski of Sao Paolo, Brazil in a highly-anticipated six round contest.

The wildly popular Reyes Jr. е 8-0 с 6 Нокаута. An athletic boxer-puncher, Reyes is coming off a third round TKO of Juan Garces last October and at 22-years-old, continues to improve rapidly.

Tatijewski, who is fighting for the first time in the United States, е 8-0 и има 7 wins by way of knockout. He’s confident of making a major splash by taking out Reyes in front of millions of viewers on UFC Fight Pass.

Junior welterweight Willian “Baby Face” Silva of Plant City, FL by way of Sao Paolo, Brazil challenges rugged Argentinian Juan Ramon Solis in a ten rounder.

Silva, who has an excellent 26-2 professional ledger and 15 победи с нокаут, scored a dominant 9тата round TKO over Jose Forero last October. After fighting most of his career at lightweight, Silva’s sights are set on the best at 140 pounds but he must first get past Solis.

Living and fighting out of Buenos Aires, Аржентина, Solis is 25-13 с 9 Нокаута. The 36-year-old’s faced many top fighters including world champion Robert Easter, contenders Sergio Thompson and Diego Silva along with unbeaten Saul Rodriguez among others.

“This is a great opportunity for Connor, Mark and Willian,” said Jody Caliguire of Fire Fist Boxing. “The UFC Fight Pass platform is perfect for all three of these excellent boxers to showcase their talent to fans from all over. We’re looking forward to Saturday evening.”

BADOU JACK SUPPORTING FRIEND & FELLOW SWEDE ALEXANDER GUSTAFSSON AHEAD OF UFC TITLE FIGHT TOMORROW NIGHT AGAINST JON JONES

LAS VEGAS (Декември 28, 2018) – Шампион по бокс с две дивизии Badou Jack will be supporting his fellow Swede, Alexander Gustafsson, in his UFC light heavyweight title fight tomorrow night against Jon Jones, and recently dined with his longtime friend while both were training in Las Vegas.

“Alexander, (Swedish UFC fighter) Ilir Latifi and I go back to the amateur days in Sweden,” каза Джак. “It was great seeing them again and I’m very proud of all they’ve accomplished in the MMA world. I wish Alexander all the best in his upcoming rematch and will be cheering for him to bring Sweden another world title home.

In the clip fromUFC Embedded“, Jack and Gustafsson talk about their friendship dating back to their amateur days in Sweden, as Gustafsson prepares for his title bout and Jack nears his showdown against Marcus Browne on the Manny Pacquiao vs. Adrien Broner pay-per-view January 19.

Badou Jack and I go back a long time,” said Gustafsson in the clip. “He’s from Stockholm, Sweden where I’m from and he’s doing his thing in boxing while I’m in MMA. Our paths have crossed and we sparred way back in the day. We’re here to catch up and just hang out.

In addition to sharing Swedish heritage, Jack and Gustafsson both use the Lockhart and Leith team of nutritionists and chefs to cut weight for their respective fights, something that has helped both reach the elite level of combat sports.

They have surrounded themselves with a great team, which is essential in this sport,” каза Джак. “Although it’s an individual performance, the preparation is a team effort. It was great catching up over dinner and getting our teams together for some laughter and fun in the middle of our training camps. Team Jack is 100% in their corners.

Среща с Хабиб Нурмагомедов & | Повече ▼
LAS VEGAS (Ноември 12, 2018) – Шампион по бокс с две дивизии Badou Jack продължи да показва, че наистина е шампион на целия свят, тъй като направи вълнуващо пътуване до Дубай, което включваше покана за участие в предизвикателството на Дубай Фитнес, среща със звездата на UFC Хабиб Нурмагомедов и много други.
С покана от Дубайския туризъм, Джак участва в инициативата, която насърчава гражданите на ОАЕ, жителите и посетителите да се упражняват поне 30 минути на ден, за 30 последователни дни. Публично събитие даде възможност на Джак да разпространи допълнително своите положителни послания.
“За мен беше чест да бъда поканен на това събитие, което беше част от едно незабравимо пътуване,” каза Джак. “Много съм благодарен на град Дубай, че ми позволи да говоря с хората за важността да останеш активен. За мен е важно да мога да оказвам влияние по целия свят и това беше чудесна възможност.”
В допълнение към тази покана, Джак гостува със звездата на UFC Хабиб Нурмагомедов, свежа победа над Конор Макгрегър миналия месец. Двамата световни шампиони, които и двамата практикуват мюсюлманската вяра, се срещна за първи път и обсъди различни теми, като същевременно обикаля местна фитнес зала по бокс / ММА и позира с шампионските колани на Jack’s.
“Беше страхотно изживяване да се говори с друг шампион и състезател като Khabib,” каза Джак. “Голям фен съм на това, което той може да направи на ринга и като колега посланик на мюсюлманската вяра. Беше наистина забавно да разговаряме с него, докато бяхме и двамата в Дубай.”
Като част от пътуването, Джак говори с Мъжко здраве Близкия изток за статия, която ще бъде публикувана в списанието и ще разкаже повече от многобройните начинания, които Джак преследва в момента както вътре, така и извън ринга. Времето на Джак в Дубай също го видя поканен от GQ Близкия изток като специален гост на стартовото събитие преди първия им брой.
“Обичам да предприемам тези пътешествия по света, за да преживея различни култури, а също така продължавам да изграждам моята марка и да връщам навсякъде, че мога да направя разлика,” каза Джак. “Независимо дали става въпрос за Ripper Nutrition, фондацията Badou Jack или моята боксова кариера, Горд съм, че използвам платформата си. Имам много цели и мечти в спорта по бокс, но и извън него. Осъществяването на този вид връзки ще ми помогне отдавна след кариерата ми по бокс.”
С все повече признания, които се полагат върху Джак година след година, основата на световната подкрепа за “Изкормвача” се издига, докато се подготвя да се върне на ринга в началото 2019. Внимавайте за още новини от Джак, включително благотворителни събития за предстоящия празничен сезон.

M-1 Global veterans & ex-champions Talk about M-1 & UFC Moscow

САНКТ ПЕТЕРБУРГ, Русия (Септември 14, 2018) – M-1 Global veterans and former champions recently expressed their thoughts and opinions about their M-1 experiences and tomorrow’s (Седем. 15) UFC Moscow card at Olympic Stadium in Moscow.

Alexei Oleinik, M-1 Global veteran, срещу. Mark Hunt in UFC Moscow main event:

M-1 Global is a great Russian promotion and I really enjoyed the time when I fought there. Each fight for me was another step in my career. We did not choose opponents, had rated fights, and took part in the Grand-Prix.

Александър Волков, Бившият M-1 Challenge шампион в тежка категория:

One of the best moments that I had in M-1 Global was the victory for our team at M-1 Selection. At that time there were team competitions in M-1 Global and I miss that format. Another great moment was when I won the M-1 Challenge heavyweight title. Every important fight is very memorable.

My first M-1 Global fights were in M-1 Selection team competitions, which helped me as a young fighter to start my career, find my place in this sport and understand that I belong to MMA. At the time it was a great opportunity for young athletes to demonstrate their skills and show up on local TV stations, so M-1 Global was the first step in my professional career.

UFC has a huge impact on development of the Russian MMA market. The partnership between M-1 Global and UFC gives M-1 Global many advantages on the local market and makes it much more attractive for Russian fighters. All mixed martial artists have a dream to fight in the UFC and now the way is clear. As we’ve seen many times, top fighters and champions from M-1 Global compete on the highest level in the UFC.

Рамадан Emeev, former M-1 Challenge middleweight champion, срещу. Stefan Sekulic at UFC Moscow

I feel some responsibility for this fight because I’m fighting at home. Many friends and fans will come to root for me and I don’t want to let them down. I want to put on a great show, win the fight, and make everyone who’s supporting me happy.

Since I’m fighting at home, I don’t have to fly somewhere and acclimate. In my previous fights I had to fly across the ocean to compete. Сега, it’s their turn, and everything will be by my rules.

Rustam Khabilov M-1 Global veteran, срещу. Kajan Johnson at UFC Moscow

There’s a great responsibility fighting at home when the crowd is waiting for you. It doesn’t matter whether it’s M-1 Global or UFC. Crowds are the same. Many friends and fans will be worried, and they’ll come to root for me, so I owe this victory to them. I must win. That’s why I trained three times as hard for this fight. Сега, I’m anticipating an opponent. Everything will be fine.

Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, one of best MMA coaches in the world and father of UFC and former M-1 Global fighter Kabib Nurmagomedov

M-1 Global is the history of Russian MMA and it’s not a coincidence that many fighters who started their careers in M-1 Global are very successful in the MMA world. M-1 Global was a foundation for mixed martial arts in Russia, faced some challenges, learned from their mistakes and kept moving forward. Most Russian fighters who are now signed with the UFC came exactly from M-1 Global.

Fighting in UFC dream come true for M-1 Challenge middleweight champion Artem Frolov

 

Седем. 15 at UFC Moscow vs. C.B. Dollaway

 

 

 

САНКТ ПЕТЕРБУРГ, Русия (Септември 5, 2018) – Fighting in the UFC is a dream come true for undefeated M-1 Challenge middleweight champion Артьом Фролов (11-0-0, М-1: 8-0-0), who will make his UFC debut September 15, fighting on the UFC Moscow card at Olympic Stadium in Moscow.

 

 

 

Frolov recently agreed on short notice (2 седмици) to replace injured Omari Ashkedov against veteran American fighter C.B. “Доберманът” Dollaway (17-8-0).

 

 

 

Fighting at home in Russia, the 26-year-old Frolov won his M-1 Challenge title belt last October, when he took a unanimous decision from Кайо Магалхаес в М-1 Challenge 84. This past June at M-1 Challenge 93, Frolov made his first and lone title defense to date against Джо Ригс, who suffered a knee injury that led to a doctor’s stoppage in the second round.

 

 

 

Вчера, Frolov sat down for a one-on-one interview:

 

How long have you working on a deal to sign with UFC?

 

 

 

AF: “My manager has been working on signing me with the UFC for a while, but until the last few days, we had no solid agreement. A few days ago, they finally offered me a contract and asked to step in to replace an injured fighter at UFC Moscow.

 

 

 

I thought it over and decided it was a great opportunity to join the UFC, which I did not want to miss. I would not say this contract was a surprise for me, people have been working on it, so I was ready.

 

How does it feel to sign with UFC?

 

 

 

AF: “I’m excited to sign with the best promotion in the world, but I know that my debut fight won’t be easy, I’m stepping in on a short notice just two weeks before the show. I was going to defend my belt in M-1 Global in a couple months, so now I need to cut weight fast. The most difficult thing is not just to cut weight, but afterwards to recover well. In the UFC, IVs are banned and you have to be extremely careful with supplements you take to recover.

What shape are you in for this fight considering only two-week’s notice?

 

 

 

AF: “I was preparing for a fight in M-1 Global, so I’m in good shape. We are going to work on my speed now but first, I have to cut weight. Once in my career I took a fight on a short notice, I had three weeks to prepare and I won that fight by TKO in the second round.

 

What do you know about your opponent, C.B. Dollaway?

 

 

 

AF: “I’ve seen a couple of C.B. Dollaway’s UFC fights, but I have never considered him as my opponent, so did not pay too much attention to him. There are many good fighters in the UFC, so I can’t say that I know a lot about my opponent. We don’t have not enough time to concentrate on him, so we’ll concentrate on me.

 

When do you feel you can challenge the top UFC fighters in your weight class?

 

 

 

AF: “I’m not going to demand huge fights with the top opponents in the UFC. I’ll take my time and be ready to fight any opponent they’ll give me. I need time to get used to new conditions, tune up my preparation, and put in order the whole system and then I will be ready for any challenges.

 

 

 

Everything is in our hands; nothing is impossible. If someone wants something badly, sets a goal and works hard to achieve it, he or she will succeed. I’m just a regular guy who had a dream to fight in the UFC and I made it. Dream big, set goals and achieve them!”
