FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (Februarie 16, 2020) – In his Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) debut, combat sports legend Hector Lombard învins David Mundell prin decizie unanimă (49-46, 48-47, 48-47) Saturday in the headlining event of BKFC 10 live on pay-per-view from the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

In a cruiserweight clash that went the full five rounds, Lombard controlled the majority of the fight, but Mundell used his jab and was able to land a few notable right hands to keep the fight interesting.

“I was aggressive and I scored the points,” said Lombard in victory. “He was backing up the whole time, but my hat off to him. I never thought it was going to be that tough, but he put up a good fight.

“I wanted to be in bare knuckle because I wanted the experience, and now I have it,” continued Lombard. “I’m pretty sure I have to change my game plan and some little things, but it was an amazing experience.”

A frustrated Mundell said, “I kept the distance really well. I played the better boxing game. I understand this is bare knuckle and everybody wants to see us slug it out, and he gave more pressure. I give him props for that, but let’s run it back and see what happens.”

The BKFC 10 co-main event featured Jim Alers înfrângerea Kaleb Harris by majority decision (50-44, 48-46, 47-47) in an all-action 155-pound contest. Alers swarmed Harris from the opening bell, knocking Harris down :30 into the first stanza. Alers then got off to another fast start in round two, using his jab to set up devastating right hands.

În turul trei, Harris settled in and proved himself a game opponent. Totuși, Alers got right back to his ferocious ways in round four, punishing Harris early and landing numerous clean shots. Alers continued to use his superior striking in the fifth round to close out the decision win.

“Our game plan was to just stay in his face,” said Alers. “He had long range and good power. I wanted to stay close, use my clinch, not get hit by those hooks. He’s a tough (guy) deși. I hit him with some hard shots and he just kept on coming.

“My Jiu Jitsu helps and comes in handy,” continued Alers. “I’m able to push him around, control his weight, and it definitely plays a part in this game. In MMA, I always wanted to take people down and submit them. Now that I get the chance to just knock people out, I’m hungry for blood. I’m hungry for those knockouts. Next one, I promise you guys a knockout!”

On the pay-per-view undercard, Luis Palomino dominate Elvin Brito in a 155-pound bout that went the distance. Palomino was able to avoid getting hit and cruised to a wide unanimous decision (49-46, 50-45, 50-45) victorie.

Ulysses Diaz got a quick stoppage victory over Brian Maxwell in a 195-pound contest. Midway through the first round, Diaz landed multiple punches in the clinch as Maxwell grabbed his forehead and fell to the canvas in pain. Maxwell appeared unable to continue and the referee halted the contest 1:13 into round one.

Dat Nguyen squared off against Abdiel Velazquez in an extremely spirited 135-pound fight. It was a furious pace from the opening bell, Nguyen landing first and dropping Velazquez. Velazquez continued to force the fast action and he caught Nguyen, dropping Nguyen to the mat for the first time in his professional combat sports career. As the fighters settled into the later stages of the first round, Nguyen landed a huge left that knocked Velazquez out cold. The referee immediately waved off the fight 1:51 into round one.

Gustavo Trujillo învins Lorenzo Hunt by technical knockout in the first round of their 205-pound scrap. As Hunt lunged forward to throw a punch, Trujillo landed a powerful, short right hand of his own, send Hunt crashing to the canvas face-first. Hunt made it back to his feet, but the referee had seen enough, calling a stop to the action just 1:01 into the first frame.

Francesco Ricchi oprit Fred Pierce in the first round of their 175-pound contest. An extremely reckless Pierce got caught and dropped early by Ricchi. Pierce elected to get up and fight on, but continued his wild ways, got stunned again and then stopped on his feet at the 1:38 marca de o singură rundă.

In the opening pay-per-view bout, Travis Thompson secured a second-round stoppage victory over Joshua Boudreaux in their 135-pound fight. Thompson focused on the body and dropped Boudreaux twice, once in the first round and again in the second round, on his way to a technical knockout at the :15 marca de-al doilea tur de scrutin.

Cubanez Olympian & UFC Veteran Looks to Conquer
BKFC Light Heavyweight Division

PHILADELPHIA (Octombrie 8, 2019) – Former Olympian and UFC standoutHector Lombard has become the latest fighter to sign with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) as he looks to make his mark in the biggest and best bare knuckle fights that the sport has to offer.

Lombard is the first-ever Olympian to sign with BKFC, having represented Cuba in judo in the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.

“I’ve wanted to fight for this amazing organization for a while and I’m excited that it’s all come together,” said Lombard, who will compete in the 185-pound light heavyweight division. “Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship is the next level of fighting and I am glad to be part of it.”

“Hector Lombard is one of the most devastating punchers in MMA history and we are looking for Hector to make a huge splash with BKFC,” said BKFC founder and president David Feldman. “Ca un fan, I cannot wait to see how Hector does in the squared circle. He’s exciting and explosive. This is an incredible signing.”

Lombard also holds the distinction of being the first Bellator champion to sign with BKFC. He was the inaugural Bellator middleweight champion, winning the title in 2009. Lombard went 8 – 0 in Bellator with seven finishes, including a six-second knockout of UFC veteran Jay Silva in May of 2010.

Lombard relinquished the Bellator middleweight championship in 2012, when he moved to the UFC. In the UFC, Lombard fought a total of 12 ori, recording notable knockout wins against Rousimar Palhares and Nate Marquardt.

In his professional MMA career, Lombard tallied 34 victorii, 22 of which have come by knockout or TKO. He is regarded as one of the hardest punching middleweights and welterweights in MMA history.

Lombard is from Cuba and moved to Australia after the 2000 Jocurile Olimpice de vară. He now lives in Florida.

arte martiale mixte, UFC

UFC și PEDs: Unde mergem de aici?

Lasă un comentariu


Fotografie de credit: Esther Lin / MMA Lupte

De obicei, atunci când am pune această întrebare, e în urma unei vedere pay-per-și mă întreb cu voce tare la ceea ce urmeaza pentru luptătorii care au concurat pe ea. De data aceasta în jurul valorii de, Vorbesc despre ceva care afectează arte martiale mixte ALL în Campionatul Ultimate Fighting.

UFC a anunțat în această săptămână că va pune în aplicare în prezent mai stricte, Testarea mult mai cuprinzătoare de droguri în urma luptători ca Anderson Silva și Hector Lombard Teste lipsa de medicamente pentru îmbunătățirea performanței (PEDs), în timp ce Jon Jones și Nick Diaz Teste eșuate de cocaină și marijuana, respectiv.

Crescut de testare de droguri și sancțiuni mai aspre poate ajuta doar UFC, și arte marțiale mixte, în general,. Dar ceea ce a adus pe această creștere în testele eșuate? PEDs au fost o parte din sport mult timp înainte de luptători MMA început să le, și au fost o problemă în MMA înainte de ultima lună și jumătate.

Dar mai multe luptători par a fi prinsi de. Ca și în cele mai multe sporturi, există o cantitate imensă de presiune pentru a efectua în MMA și în UFC. Dacă nu efectuați, tu practic nu sunt plătit. Creșterea cererii pentru programare UFC în virtutea acord cu FOX ar putea fi, de asemenea, un factor. Au mers la a fi pe Spike TV – în cazul în care difuzează numai "The Ultimate Fighter" o dată pe an și două sau trei cărți lupta vii anual – practic cu două cărți de luptă vii o lună și aerisire "The Ultimate Fighter" de două ori pe an, pe canalele FOX.

Creșterea de programare înseamnă o nevoie de mai multe organisme pentru a umple că programarea. Aceasta înseamnă, de asemenea, ca mai multe luptători sunt de formare pentru mai multe lupte, care poate duce la mai multe leziuni. PEDs, în plus față de oferindu-vă un avantaj competitiv asupra adversarului, permite să recupereze de la leziuni mai repede. Cu nevoia de mai multe luptători pentru a umple mai multe cărți de lupta, Cred că e posibil creșterea aparentă în testele de droguri nu a reușit poate cel puțin fi parțial atribuită că.

A crescut de măsuri de droguri de testare UFC avea efect iulie 1. Ce ne putem aștepta după ce face? Aici sunt unele dintre liniile directoare UFC prezentat.

Chiar CEO UFC Lorenzo Fertitta admise în timpul conferinței de presă din această săptămână că lucrurile "s-ar înrăutăți înainte de a mai bine" cu noul testarea. Mai Mult, rămâne de văzut cât de mult a va lipi de fapt o dată iulie 1 role în jurul valorii de. UFC considerate anterior extinde eforturile sale de testare de droguri înainte, dar tras înapoi, Costul citând și un gresita anterior încercare de a face acest lucru.

Totuși, cu eruptia de profil înalt, cum ar fi stele Silva, Jones și Diaz teste lipsa, Costul nu poate fi considerat o piedică și UFC trebuie să fie vigilenți. Navigheaza feed-mi Twitter după conferința de presă, a fost straniu liniștit. Aproape nici luptători cântărit în inițial. Este probabil că a fost doar un produs secundar al conferinței de presă va avea loc pe o după-amiază miercuri, când cei mai mulți oameni lucrează sau probabil au alte lucruri de făcut în afară de post pe Twitter. Dar era încă destul de grăitoare. Se pare ca acest lucru a atras atenția luptători ", cum ar trebui.

Ce cred ca se va intampla? Nu va fi o creștere a testului a eșuat o dată noile măsuri în vigoare iulie 1, Sunt destul de increzator. Dar având în vedere că UFC susține pedepse aspre pentru cei care fac nu – inclusiv interzicerea de până la patru ani – Mă aștept luptătorii murdare pentru cele din urmă ciclu se afară și cei care concurează curat (care este majoritatea, probabil) să joace un rol mai important.

Testarea de droguri a crescut este așteptată de mult timp in UFC. Sportul mixte sine arte marțiale este încă în fază incipientă, mai ales în comparație cu alte sporturi, cum ar fi fotbal, baschet și baseball. Dar, la fel ca și baseball este încă în convalescență după propria criză cu PEDs, aceste teste recente eșuate de droguri au zdruncinat temelia UFC și au asculta de zile când a fost mentionat ca "cockfighting umane."

UFC a adoptat sloganul "acum este momentul" pentru 2015, și nu am putut de acord mai mult. Acum este timpul pentru ei să preia conducerea în curățarea sport de arte martiale mixte.
