FNU Combat Sports Show For November 3, 2016

Tom, Tony and Rich get back to action this week to discuss upcoming fight cards, including two big MMA events: UFC Fight Night Dos Anjos vs. Ferguson and Bellator 163: McGeary vs. Davis. We preview both events and talk about the matchups. We then move to the boxing schedule where there are multiple belts on the line this week all over the globe. We spend a bit of time discussing the big Manny Pacquiao bout against Jessie Vargas. Is Manny fighting for the right reasons? Does he have enough left in the tank? We’ll know the answer Saturday night. Rich also breaks down his suspicions about vocal UFC fighters trending toward starting some type of powerful fighters union. Could the astronomical selling price of the UFC actually be the main handicap for the new owners? Did putting such a high premium on the UFC unintentionally give griping fighters more incentive to sue the company? Only time will tell.

LAS VEGAS (Huhtikuu 16, 2016) – Former IBO World welterweight champion Chris “Heat” Van Heerden put himself back into title contention position, winning a 10-round majority decision over Steve “The Dragon” CLAGGETT in this evening’s main event, under the neon lights at the Las Vegasin keskusta Events Center(DLVEC) outdoor venue.
The “Knockout Night at the D” sarja, which airs live on CBS Sports Network, on esittänyt D Las Vegas and DLVEC), edistetään Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Nyrkkeilytarjoukset and returns Lauantai ilta, Toukokuu 21.
Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KOs), fighting out of Santa Monica, California by way of South Africa, used his 3-inch height advantage against Claggett (23-3-1, 16 KOs), the Canadian champion from Calgary, Alberta.
Neither fighter was hurt during the fight, in which there were continual back-and-forth exchanges of stinging combinations. Claggett battled to apply pressure in order to fight on the inside, while Van Heerden fought effectively from the outside.
The two evenly-matched welterweights patiently waited for the official announcement: 95-95 ja 97-93 twice for Van Heerden.
I knew I won this fight, 120-prosentti, but I knew it was close,” Van Heerden commented. “We’re both winners tänä iltana because of it was so close and we entertained the crowd. Me and Claggett entertained the crowd…..we delivered. I’ve been through so much and the lord helped me get this win. I look forward to a rematch, but I want to move forward.
Undefeated California junior middleweight NeecoThe RoosterMacias (12-0, 6 KOs) had a lot to crow about in the 8-round co-feature against LimberthEl GallitoPonce, Jr.(10-3, 8 KOs). Macias thoroughly dominated the action, firing non-stop shots from every conceivable angle. His unrelenting pressure enabled Macias, whose come-forward approach made him an instant fan favorite, to control the fight from start to finish for a unanimous decision.
I knew he was going to be the toughest fighter I’ve fought,” Macias said. “I give Ponce much respect. We wanted to give fans a good show.
Baltimore welterweight Malik “Iceman” Hawkins (7-0, 6 KOs) antoi Errol “Spyda” Sidney (6-2-2, 2 KOs) a beating, fully displaying his arsenal of punches, hurting his gutsy opponent on several occasions. Hawkins’ aggressive style early in the fight broke-down Sidney, who was nearly finished at the end of the fourth and fifth rounds. Hawkins trapped Sidney a neutral corner at the start of the sixth round and a powerful uppercut sent Sidney down to a knee. Sidney beat referee Jay Nady‘s count but the veteran official had seen enough and he halted the bout 1:02 into the sixth.
We’re back,” Hawkins proclaimed after the bout. I’d give myself an 8 ½ this fight.
Las Vegas’ promising prospect Randy Moreno (2-0, 1 KO) outclassed Oregon junior lightweight Derek Barthemay (0-3) from the opening bell for a 4-round unanimous decision.
Flashy Las Vegas welterweight prospect JeremyJ-FlashNichols (3-0, 2 KOs) constantly pounded the body of his tough Mexican opponent, Jason “GibborGavino (3-2, 2 KOs), for a 4-round shutout victory,
Las Vegas’ Sal Lopez (2-0) dropped a game Matta “KO Kid” Murphy (0-2), a junior lightweight from St. Ludvig, in the opening round on his way to an impressive one-sided win by way of a unanimous 4-round decision.

Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KOs), fighting out of Santa Monica (KUTEN), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) ja International Boxing Federation (IBF) välisarjan mestari.
Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, monta vuotta, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. Nykyään, vaikka, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Errol Spence Jr. last September) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”
