ΧΙΟΥΣΤΟΝ, Τέξας – Legacy Καταπολέμηση Συμμαχία (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will crown a new middleweight champion in September when the promotion returns to Colorado.

Η κύρια εκδήλωση του LFA 22 will feature the top two middleweight prospects in the sport. Colorado’s own IanThe HurricaneHeinisch will face Brazilian dynamo and fellow undefeated prospect MarkusMalukoPerez for the vacant LFA middleweight title. LFA 22 – Heinisch vs. Perez takes place Παρασκευή, 8, Σεπ στο 1STBANK Κέντρο στο Broomfield, Κολοράντο. Ολόκληρη η κύρια κάρτα θα μεταδοθεί ζωντανά και σε εθνικό επίπεδο στις AXS τηλεόραση σε 9 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ / 6 μ.μ. PT.
LFA will crown a new middleweight champion at LFA 22 στο Κολοράντο,” Δηλωμένη Soares. “Ian Heinisch and Markus Perez are the top two middleweight prospects in the sport. Επί 8, Σεπ, only one will walk away with their perfect record intact with the LFA middleweight title wrapped around their waist.
Εισιτήρια για LFA 22 – Heinisch vs. Perez are available for purchase NOW at AltitudeTickets.com. You can also support your favorite fighter by purchasing your tickets at CombatTickets.com.
Heinisch (8-0) received plenty of fanfare when he signed with the LFA earlier this year. This was due to the fact that Heinisch is widely regarded as one of the top middleweight prospects in the world. The two-time Colorado state wrestling champion from Ponderosa High School lived up to media and fanslofty expectations, and then some, when he made his highly-anticipated LFA debut in the main event of LFA 10. Heinisch quickly dispatched the well-versed Brazilian powerhouse Lucas Rota in less than a round with a rare Ude-Garami (Keylock) from Kesa-Gatame (Scarf Hold). This positioned him at the front of the line for a title shot. The 29-year-old will now get the opportunity to fight for the vacant LFA middleweight title in front of his home crowd at LFA 22.
Perez (8-0) is perhaps the only middleweight prospect in the world that can match the intrigue surrounding Heinisch. This is due in large part to the fact that Perez has been just as dominant in his native Brazil as Heinisch has been stateside. Ο άνθρωπος είναι γνωστή ως “Malukowill be making his highly-anticipated international MMA debut on the heels of back-to-back wins over UFC veterans Ildemar Alcântara and Paulo Thiago. Those wins saw Perez’s stock as a top prospect skyrocket as Alcântara and Thiago have a combined 20 fights in the UFC between the two of them. The 27-year-old is now eager to showcase his talents outside of Brazil for the first time. He will get that opportunity on 8, Σεπ when he fights for the vacant LFA middleweight title.
Η συν-κύριο γεγονός του LFA 22 will feature the farewell fight of one of Colorado’s most beloved and accomplished fighters when Gilbert Smith gets his hands wrapped and throws down one last time in front of his adoring home crowd. The proud Coloradan has enjoyed an MMA career that has seen him reach the highest levels of the sport.
The U.S. Army veteran and Colorado Springs resident competed on two seasons of the UFC’s hit reality television series Το Ultimate Fighter. Along with being a memorable cast member on TUF 17 and TUF 25, Smith competed for the UFC and Bellator, as well as both RFA and Legacy FC before the two promotions merged to form LFA at the beginning of the year. During his time with RFA, Smith won the welterweight world title.
The man standing across the Octagon from Smith at LFA 22 will be Andrew Kapel (11-6). Kapel is a longtime friend and teammate of Benjamin Smith, who is the man that Gilbert Smith took the RFA title from two summers ago in the main event of RFA 26. Kapel, like Benjamin Smith, is a student of Greg Nelson at The Academy in Minneapolis, Minnesota and will look to exact a bit of revenge in the same building where Gilbert Smith submitted Benjamin Smith. The budding grudge match in Gilbert’s farewell fight has one more layer. Kapel submitted Smith’s teammate Adam Stroup last month in less than a round.
In the always exciting women’s strawweight division, Maycee Barber (1-0) will return to the LFA Octagon against RFA vet and fellow top prospect Mallory Martin (1-1) at LFA 22. Barber burst on to the MMA scene in June with a dominant professional MMA debut at LFA 14. Barber submitted undefeated prospect Itzel Esquivel via armbar in the first round of a bout that took place in her opponent’s hometown. Now Barber will return to the LFA Octagon in her home state. She will face a fellow Coloradan prospect in Martin who is no stranger to the 1STBANK Center in Broomfield. It was in this same venue where Martin submitted the Gilbert Smith trained Melissa Parker via Rear Naked Choke at RFA 34. Now the table is set for a showdown between the top two strawweights in “Η Εκατονταετηρίδα” as the 19-year-old Barber faces the 23-year-old Martin on the main card of LFA 22.

ΧΙΟΥΣΤΟΝ, Τέξας – Legacy Καταπολέμηση Συμμαχία (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the LFA will make its third trip to Minnesota at the end of August with a welterweight headliner and the return of two revered Minnesotans.
Η κύρια εκδήλωση του LFA 20 will feature a welterweight war between rising star ChadBlitzCurry and former RFA title challenger NickThe Phoenix” Barnes. LFA 20 – Curry vs. Barnes takes place Παρασκευή, August 25th at the Mystic Lake Showroom in Prior Lake, Μινεσότα.

I’m happy to bring the LFA back to Minnesota for a third time this year”, Δηλωμένη Soares. “We have a great history of bringing exciting fights to the area, and this card will continue that tradition. Both Curry and Barnes have shown to be aggressive, physical fighters, and I really want to see how this match up plays out. Mystic Lake has been a great partner and we look forward to bringing LFA 20 to the Mystic Lake Showroom on August 25th.”
Εισιτήρια για LFA 20 – Curry vs. Barnes are available for purchase NOW at MysticLake.com.
Curry (9-1) has transformed himself from one of Minnesota’s most popular fighters to one of the sport’s most exciting and promising prospects. The man aptly known asBlitzhas decimated his last two opponents since moving up to welterweight. Όντως, all nine men that he has defeated, never saw the final round. Curry is able to do this by utilizing a unique blend of technical grappling and stout ground-and-pound. The 27-year-old Minnesotan now faces a huge test as he gets set to headline his first televised event at LFA 20.
Barnes (11-2) makes his LFA debut roughly twelve months after competing for the RFA welterweight world title. The Wyoming native, who now calls San Diego, California home, has taken the time since that fight to strengthen his already formidable skill set. After coming up short in that title fight to a man who was then immediately signed to the UFC, the 26-year-old known asThe Phoenixwill look to live by the famous words of S.A. Sachs: “Hope rises like a Phoenix from the ashes of shattered dreams.The Phoenix will look to rise again at LFA 20.
Η συν-κύριο γεγονός του LFA 20 will feature a highly-anticipated match-up between two of the promotion’s top featherweightcontenders. Άγγλος αστυφύλακας “Η Wolfman” Moffett (9-2) και “Nasty” Nate Jennerman (9-2) will face off in a high-stakes affair as the two contenders jockey for position at the top of the division. The pair of featherweight standouts share more than just identical records. They both have roots in the famed RFA promotion. Moffett who trains at The MMA LAB in Glendale, Arizona competed three times for the RFA. Εν τω μεταξύ,, Jennerman who trains at Roufusport in Milwaukee, Wisconsin finished his amateur career for the promotion.
The main card of LFA 20 will also feature the return of women’s MMA pioneer KellyBlood Red” Kobold. Μετά από έξι και μισό χρόνο κενό από τον αθλητισμό, she will take on knockout artist Christine “Αρθρώσεις” Stanley.
Kobold (18-3-1) είναι μια από τις πιο σεβαστές γυναίκες στο άθλημα. She has enjoyed an illustrious professional MMA career that dates back fifteen years. A true pioneer in women’s MMA, the warrior known asBlood Redhas been there moving behind the scenes, cutting a bloody path through the ages until suddenly, just like that, she up and disappeared in 2011. Now she is back at 125-pounds, ready to stake a claim at the top of the division.
Stanley (5-3) will be the woman waiting to welcome Kobold back to the sport she helped pioneer. The San Diego native has built a career around an explosive striking base that has earned her a reputation as one of the most feared knockout artists in the division. The RFA vet holds one of the fastest knockouts in combat sports. That knockout came in 5-seconds with a highlight reel Flying Spinning Hook Kick back in 2014. “Αρθρώσεις” has earned four of her five wins by way of KO or TKO and now looks to pick up the biggest win of her career at LFA 20.

Αλέξανδρος Volkov: Ο Mikhail Zayats είναι πλέον πεινασμένος για μάχες, Ανυπομονώ για τη θριαμβευτική του νίκη.

Μ-1 Πρόκληση 82, Αύγουστος. 5, στο Ελσίνκι, Φινλανδία
(Ο αστέρας του βαρέων βαρών MMA Alexander Volkov μίλησε πρόσφατα για την προετοιμασία του συμπαίκτη του, Μιχαήλ Ζαιάτ (22-8-0, Μ-1: 12-5-0), για την πρόκληση του M-1 82 main event αγώνα εναντίον. Marcus “Σπηλαιάνθρωπος” Βανττίν (24-6-0, Μ-1: 2-2-0), Αύγουστος 5, στο Ελσίνκι, Φινλανδία. Αυτό το Q & Μια ιστορία εμφανίστηκε στο διαδίκτυο στις mixfight.ru.)

(L-R) — Ρώσοι μαχητές παγκόσμιας κλάσης MMA Σεργκέι Kharitonov, Μιχαήλ Ζαιάτ και ο Alexander Volkov από μια πρόσφατη προπόνηση

Εκπαιδεύεστε στην ίδια ομάδα για τόσα χρόνια. Πώς θα περιγράφατε τον Μιχαήλ ως αθλητή?

Volkov: “Δουλεύει πολύ σκληρά ως μαχητής, ολοκληρώνει όλες τις προπονήσεις μέχρι το τέλος, και είναι από τους τελευταίους που έφυγαν από το γυμναστήριο.”
Τι μάθατε από αυτόν κατά τη διάρκεια αγώνων φιλαργυρίας και προπόνησης?
Volkov: “Πώς να εργαστείτε στο μέγιστο βαθμό, τόσο στην εκπαίδευση όσο και στον αγώνα. Όταν βλέπω τρένο Mikhail, με εμπνέει να δουλεύω σκληρότερα και να μην είμαι τεμπέλης.. Έχουμε πάντα μικρούς διαγωνισμούς κατά την προπόνηση και πιέζουμε ο ένας τον άλλον για να εργαστούμε ακόμα πιο σκληρά.”
Ποιος από εσάς είναι πιο χρήσιμος στην προετοιμασία για μάχη?
Volkov: “Όταν ο Μάικλ δεν είχε μάχες, με βοήθησε πολύ, φυσικά. Στο εκπαιδευτικό μου στρατόπεδο, ήταν σαν προπονητής πάλης, βοηθώντας με να ασχοληθώ και με σωματικές ασκήσεις. Θα έλεγα ότι τα τελευταία χρόνια, ασχολήθηκε περισσότερο με την εκπαίδευσή μου από ό, τι ήμουν στο δικό του. Αλλά, τώρα έχει έναν επερχόμενο αγώνα και συμμετέχω πλήρως στις προετοιμασίες του. Εξάλλου, ο μελλοντικός του αντίπαλος είναι 6 πόδια. 4 ίντσες ύψος. Έτσι, Μιμούνται το στυλ του αντιπάλου του για να βοηθήσει τον Misha να προετοιμαστεί για τον αγώνα.”
Ποια πρόβλεψη έχετε ο Mikhail Zayats’ επερχόμενος αγώνας?
Volkov: “Προσωπικά ελπίζω για το καλύτερο. Περιμένω να τελειώσει τον αγώνα του με μια φωτεινή νίκη, με νοκ-άουτ ή υποβολή. Αν και αυτός δεν θα είναι ένας εύκολος αγώνας για αυτόν, επειδή ο τελευταίος αγώνας του ήταν πριν από λίγο (Φεβρουάριος. 28, 2014,). Γνωρίζω από τη δική μου εμπειρία ότι ακόμη και ένα χάσμα ενός έτους μεταξύ δύο αγώνων μπορεί να καταστήσει πολύ δύσκολο να δείξετε τις καλύτερες ικανότητες μάχης. Ο Μιχαήλ έχει ένα τεράστιο κίνητρο τώρα. Είναι πολύ πεινασμένος για μάχες και νίκες. Έτσι, Περιμένω τη θριαμβευτική νίκη του Mikhail Zaytz.”

ΧΙΟΥΣΤΟΝ, Τέξας – Legacy Καταπολέμηση Συμμαχία (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will be bringining a featherweight world title fight to Oklahoma to kick off a busy August schedule.
Η κύρια εκδήλωση του LFA 18 will feature the return of LFA featherweight champion KevinThe Angel of DeathAguilar. He will put his title on the line against LFA featherweight #1 contender JustinDarthRader in one of the most highly-anticipated featherweight title fights of the year. LFA 18 – Aguilar vs. Rader takes place Παρασκευή, August 4th at the FireLake Arena in Shawnee, Οκλαχόμα. Ολόκληρη η κύρια κάρτα θα μεταδοθεί ζωντανά και σε εθνικό επίπεδο στις AXS τηλεόραση σε 9 μ.μ.

LFA is bringing a featherweight world title fight to Oklahoma at LFA 18,” Δηλωμένη Soares. “Kevin Aguilar is the LFA featherweight world champion and one of the most exciting prospects in the sport. He won the title with one of the best knockouts of the year at LFA 4. Aguilar will defend his title for the first time against Justin Rader, who is a world-class grappler and the #1 αντίπαλος. Rader earned his shot at the title with his big win at LFA 15.
Εισιτήρια για LFA 18 – Aguilar vs. Rader are available for purchase NOW at StubWire.com.
Aguilar (12-1) has long been considered one of the top pound-for-pound prospects in MMA. In February, the final Legacy FC featherweight champion strengthened that argument by capturing the inaugural LFA featherweight title against his longtime rival Damon Jackson with one of the most talked about knockout victories of the year. The proud Texan trains alongside LFA welterweight champion Derrick Krantz in Longview, Τέξας, but will have his first title defense on the road. Aguilar will put his title on the line when he heads into enemy territory to face one of the most revered fighters in the state of Oklahoma.
I’ve been training nonstop and getting ready for defend my title. Now I get to show everyone what I’ve been working on,” Aguilar explained. “I’m looking forward to fighting in enemy territory, because that is the life of a champion. I will win over the crowd with an exciting fight. Justin Rader is a world-class grappler and I’m excited that he signed the paperwork. He has earned his shot. I have been training harder than I have ever trained before and I can’t wait to defend my title at LFA 18.
Rader (7-2) is one of the most decorated grapplers to hail from a state that is synonymous with grappling. The proud Oklahoman is a two-time IBJJF no-gi jiu-jitsu world champion as a black belt, he is a 2013 ADCC Submission Grappling World Championship bronze medalist, and he was the runner-up in the Oklahoma high school wrestling championship in 2005. Rader also holds the distinct honor of being Rafael Lovato Jr.’s first black belt in jiu-jitsu. Rader will now look to add the biggest piece of hardware to his massive trophy case when he vies for the LFA featherweight title.
I’m fighting The Angel of Death. His nickname says it all,” Rader exclaimed. “Kevin Aguilar is without a doubt, the best fighter I have ever faced. He is extremely dangerous, seasoned, and his fight demeanor is second to none. He stays at home and doesn’t force anything. The best opponents always pull the best out of me. I just fought a little over a week ago, so to be able to turn around and fight for the title four weeks later is a great opportunity. When opportunity knocks, I answer.
Η συν-κύριο γεγονός του LFA 18 will feature a high-stakes middleweight showdown between two of the most popular middleweight prospects in the promotion. Brendan Allen (7-2) returns to the LFA Octagon after engaging in a five-round war with Eryk Anders for the inaugural LFA middleweight title in the main event of LFA 14. He came up short on the judge’s score cards, but won over a large new fan base due to the entertaining title contest that is a front-runner for “Καταπολέμηση της Χρονιάς”. Allen now looks to bounce back into title contention when he faces Chris Harris (9-1) in the co-main event of LFA 18. Harris is coming off a dominant win over Cortez Coleman in the co-main event of LFA 15 τον περασμένο μήνα. He utilized his impressive striking skills throughout the contest and is eager to do the same next month in the co-main event of LFA 18.
LFA 18 will also feature a special attraction at welterweight. Rafael “Jackal” Justin (2-1) will make his LFA debut just six days after his younger sister Cris “Cyborg” Justino fights for the UFC women’s featherweight tile at UFC 214. He will meet UFC vet and wildly popular media personality Mike “Η Αλήθεια” Τζάκσον (0-1) who holds the impressive distinction of being one of only a handful of fighters to make their professional MMA debut in the UFC.

GEGARD MOUSASI TO DEBUT AT BELLATOR 185 AGAINST ALEXANDER SHLEMENKO ON OCTOBER 20

 

‘KING MO’ MEETS LIAM MCGEARY IN LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CO-MAIN EVENT AT MOHEGAN SUN ARENA

ΛΟΣ ΑΝΤΖΕΛΕΣ – On the heels of his recent Bellator signing, Gegard Mousasi (42-6-2) will make his promotional debut against former champ Αλέξανδρος Shlemenko (56-9, 1 NC) επί Παρασκευή, Οκτώβριος 20 στο Bellator 185: Mousasi vs. Shlemenko, an event that takes place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

Εξάλλου, the co-main event of Bellator 185: Mousasi vs. Shlemenko will feature a light heavyweight contest pitting “King Mo” Λαβάλ (21-6, 1 NC) against former titleholder Liam McGeary (12-2). Additional main and preliminary card bouts will be announcing in the coming weeks.

The event will be broadcast live and free on SPIKE at 9 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/8 μ.μ. CT, while preliminary action will stream on Bellator.com and the Bellator Mobile App. Tickets for this massive event start at $30, with an exclusive Bellator Nation Presale offer on Τετάρτη, Ιούλιος 19 στο 10 π.μ.. ΚΑΙ μέσω Πέμπτη, July at 10 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Παρασκευή, Ιούλιος 21 στο 10 π.μ.. ΚΑΙ and are available at the Mohegan Sun Arena Box Office, καθώς και Ticketmaster και Bellator.com.

Long-considered to be one of the elite two-division threats in MMA, Mousasi is set for his Bellator debut and is currently riding a five-fight win streak that includes recent knockout victories over two former world champions in Chris Weidman and Vitor Belfort. Prior to his UFC tenure, Mousasi captured the STRIKEFORCE light heavyweight title, as well as the DREAM light heavyweight and middleweight titles in Japan. “The Dreamcatcher,” who currently trains out of The Netherlands, has earned victories over some of the sports’ biggest names, including Dan Henderson, “Jacare” Souza, Μαρκ Χαντ, Ovince Saint-Preux, Melvin Manhoef, Hector Lombard and “Babalu” Sobral.

 

Shlemenko, a former middleweight champion, has competed under the Viacom-owned promotion’s umbrella since Bellator 16 σε 2010. Known for his vicious finishing ability, “Storm” ruled with an iron fist over Bellator’s 185-pound division, defending his belt on three occasions. One of the most dominant champions in Bellator history and currently riding a five-fight win streak, which includes a TKO victory over Κένταλ Grove στο Bellator 162, Shlemenko has his sights set on earning a shot at once again becoming world champion.

 

It was only a matter of time before “King Mo” Lawal and Liam McGeary squared off inside the Bellator cage. On the heels of a unanimous decision victory over “Rampage” Jackson at Bellator 175, the king of Bellator’s “money-weight” division returns to meet Britain’s McGeary. Never one to shy away from a fight, the former STRIKEFORCE champion, has stepped inside the Bellator cage on 14 separate occasions and was also victorious during RIZIN’s first open-weight tournament in 2015.

 

Widely regarded as one of the top light heavyweights in the world, McGeary will enter his bout with Lawal looking to once again stake his claim on the division he once sat atop of. A member of Team Renzo Gracie in New York, McGeary brings his renowned jiu-jitsu skills to the table against an opponent who has yet to be submitted in 27-fights as a professional. Of the 34-year-old’s 12 νίκες, 11 have come before reaching the judges’ scorecards, a feat McGeary hopes to continue in the co-main event of Bellator 185: Mousasi vs. Shlemenko.
