“Getting that first win for my team meant everything,” said Penafiel. “I wanted to set the tone for my team and let everyone know we’re here to bang. I knew (Khamzayev) was tough, but I’m way too much for him. Even when he tried to strike me I was able to stay comfortable. And in the grappling department I don’t think many people can mess with me.”

 

 

 

The second official team bout saw Cody Ayer of Team Pennsylvania secure a TKO victory over Gabriel Ruiz of Team New Jersey 3:43 into round two and earning Team Pennsylvania five more points, expanding their lead 8 – 0.

 

 

 

“I finally feel like I’m hitting my rhythm in the cage,” said Hier. “I did everything that I could to help Team Pennsylvania get the win tonight. I could tell Ruiz was out and he was quitting. When I hit him with that first big ground and pound, I felt how well I tagged him. And then when he tried to go to his side that’s when I really got aggressive and finished him.”

 

 

 

In the third fight, Team New Jersey’s Claudio Ledesma won by unanimous decision (29-27, 30-27, 30-27) encima otra Bernardo of Team Pennsylvania, earning Team New Jersey their first three points and tightening the team contest 8 – 3.

 

 

 

“I was glad to do my part for my team,” said Ledesma. “I’m a little mad that I wasn’t able to stop him, aunque. I hit him with everything but the kitchen sink, but I just couldn’t finish him. After the second round, once I realized that I probably wasn’t going to finish (Bernardo), I knew my main goal was to just secure the win and that’s what I did.”

 

 

 

The fourth official contest of the night featured a unanimous decision (29-27, 29-27, 29-27) victory by Sedequías Montañez of Team Pennsylvania over Mike Pagano of Team New Jersey, capturing three more points for Team Pennsylvania and growing the lead 11 – 3.

 

 

 

“It felt great to get the win. I was just trying to listen to my coach and my teammates,” said Montanez. “I also had my son right there watching me tonight. He helps remind me what I do this for. But tonight, I was happy to get this experience under my belt and get the win for my team.”

 

 

 

In the evening’s fifth bout, Team Pennsylvania’s Rafael Celestino defeated Team New Jersey’s Emmanuel Walo por decisión unánime (30-27, 29-28, 29-28). With Celestino’s win, Team Pennsylvania collected three more points, widening the score 14 – 3, and officially securing Team Pennsylvania victory.

 

 

 

“I’m very happy with my win and to be able to help my team earn the victory tonight,” said Celestino. “Walo is a very tough opponent and he came to fight tonight, but I did enough to get the win and am happy with my performance.”

 

 

 

The sixth and final official contest showcased an exhilarating finale as Kevin Sears of Team New Jersey scored a unanimous decision (29-28, 29-27, 29-27) encima Ahmed Samir of Team Pennsylvania, making the final team score 14 – 6 in favor of Team Pennsylvania.

 

 

 

“I went in there and fought for my team, but I was also fighting for my daughter and my family,” said Sears. “I’m doing this to make my daughter’s life better. She helps push me and drives me to fight. Samir had me shook in the first round, and then again in the second, but I just dug deep and did what I needed to get this win.”

 

 

 

“The way we won showed me a lot about my team,” said coach Gracie. “We won decisively and showed the type of performance that I’ve come to expect from my guys.

 

 

 

“MMA needs innovation and something new to excite the fans and help bring the masses to our sport,” added Gracie. “I think MMA Pro League and this team concept is exactly what will help bring that added attention and take this sport to the next level.”

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (Septiembre 13, 2018) – As fight night approaches for the inaugural MMA Pro League event, fighters from head coach Dan Miller’s Team New Jersey and head coach Daniel Gracie’s Team Pennsylvania participated in media workouts Thursday at Hard Rock Live in Atlantic City.

The newest entity in MMA kicks off this Saturday, Septiembre 15 en el nuevo Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City in bouts streaming live on FloCombat.com (9 p.m. ET / 6 pm. PT). Las entradas para la edición inaugural de “MMA Pro Liga en el Hard Rock” are available at Ticketmaster.com.

The full bout sheet is available HERE. Here is what the fighters in attendance and league executives had to say Thursday:

DAN MILLER, Head Coach of Team New Jersey

“It means a lot to be coach for Team New Jersey. It’s my home state and it’s a big event for it. I love the team concept and I’m proud to be in this position.

“We’re here representing the whole state. We’ve had the team training together and building camaraderie. It’s like a wrestling match style where each team is sending people out.

“Everybody looks good and healthy in training camp. I think we’re ready to go. All of these fights are going to be fantastic. These are matched very well and it should be a fun night. Team Pennsylvania better be ready, because our guys are.”

DANIEL GRACIE, Head Coach of Team Pennsylvania

“Everything in training has been perfect. I’ve been working with most of these guys for a long time already so we just kept up what we’ve been working on. With the team concept we have a lot more people to focus on instead of just one or two. We already had good chemistry though, so everything went smoothly.

“Our amateur guys turning pro are going to show that they belong in these fights. It’s time to grab the spotlight. Your first fight is the best opportunity to make an impression.

“I think that MMA needs something new that can draw people’s attention. This is a great chance to bring in the fans who don’t pay attention to MMA and give them a chance to get behind their local teams.”

HANI DARWISH, CEO of MMA Pro League

“Fans should expect something completely different than they’re used to. MMA has always been a team sport and I’m glad we’re going to be the ones to expose that to the world. These guys have always trained with a team, because you can’t train by yourself.

“We believe this is going to be the new era of MMA. We’re going to give cities and states all around the world the chance to really stand behind their own teams.

“There’s been a lot of hard work and strategic planning leading to this and it’s finally coming to fruition. It’s a vision that we implemented and once we got the right people we knew it was a theme we believed in so much that we decided to execute.”

Mark Taffet, President of MMA Pro League

“We’re going to create a legacy in this sport that is going to last for generations to come. I had the privilege of launching HBO PPV 30 years ago and I saw a lot of history be made. Now I have the chance to do it again, along with my partner Hani Darwish.

“My first fight at HBO PPV was right here in Atlantic City for Evander Holyfield vs. George Foreman. It’s very significant for me to be back here in Atlantic City at the brand new Hard Rock Hotel & Casino to have a chance to create another chapter of great moments.

“One of the most important things to MMA Pro League is to have the right coaches leading the teams. Dan Miller and Daniel Gracie are both natural leaders, mentors, great former fighters and great teachers. They represent everything we want to represent with MMA Pro League.”

MARK KOLKER (Nueva Jersey) vs. ZULKARNAIYN KAMCHYBEKOV (Pensilvania) – Los pesos medios

Kolker: “This is really exciting and I’m very thankful for the opportunity. We’re doing something different than anyone else is doing and I think it can be something special.

“I know that I have an opponent who can wrestle and who’s undefeated as an amateur. I feel like I have the tools to beat him. I can catch, slip and put him away with something early. Or if he wants to go the distance we can do that too. I predict I knock him out.”

Kamchybekov: “This is my first pro fight and I’m very happy to have the opportunity. I don’t know too much about my opponent but I will be prepared. I have worked very hard and I’m going to show my wrestling and striking to get this win.”

GABRIEL RUIZ (Nueva Jersey) vs. CODY HIER (Pensilvania) – Pesos pluma

Ruiz: “It feels good to get back in the cage and feel the adrenaline. I’m hoping to give everyone a great fight.

“I know my opponent is a wrestler so he’s going to try to take me down. He’s not going to want to stand up with me, but I’m prepared for a lot of wrestling. I’m trying to knock him out and go eat a burger.”

aquí: “It’s amazing to be a part of this MMA Pro League venture. It’s such a great opportunity and I’m glad to be on the ground floor.

“My opponent has taken some time off but I know he’s going to be ready to fight. I’m not sleeping on him. This is going to be an action fight.”

CLAUDIO LEDESMA (Nueva Jersey) vs. ANDRE BERNARDO (Pensilvania) – Bantamweights

Ledesma: “It’s awesome to be able to represent New Jersey. I’m so happy to have this opportunity. This has been a great experience so far.

“I don’t know too much about my opponent. I like to focus on what I do and make adjustments when I have to.”

Bernardo: “It’s been a hard road getting to where I am today and I’m grateful to be fighting for MMA Pro League.

“I’m facing a very experienced fighter. He has a black belt in jiu-jitsu and is a well-rounded fighter. He’s still going to have to get in
there and fight me. I know we’re going to go to the ground eventually and I plan to choke him out.”

MIKE PAGANO (Nueva Jersey) vs. ZEDEKIAH MONTANEZ (Pensilvania) – Welter

Pagano: “I’m proud to be a part of this first MMA Pro League show. I’m excited to represent my state in the cage.

“My opponent seems very well composed. He likes to sit back and box before looking to throw. Everyone has a plan until you get punched in the face, so I’m going to go out there and just fight.”

montanez: “It feels really good to be in this position. Fighting professionally has been a dream of mine and now it’s here. I’ve worked so hard to get to this moment and I’m really excited.

“I know that I’m facing a wrestler who likes to put pressure on and come straight forward. We’re prepared for anything he throws at me and I will adapt to anything he throws at me. It’s going to be a war but I just have to go out there and be the best I can be.”

JUSTIN OSBORN (Nueva Jersey) vs. ANDY JIMENEZ (Pensilvania) – Welter

Osborn: “I’m excited to go out there and do what I love to do. I can’t wait to get in that cage and stare across at a guy who’s ready to take my head off.

“I know I’m facing an undefeated amateur making his pro debut so I’m ready for anything. I’m ready for the whole nine yards. I’m predicting a finish.”

JOSEPH PINAFIEL (Pensilvania) vs. TURPAL KHAMZAYEV (Nueva Jersey) – Bantamweights

Pinafiel: “It means everything to me to have this platform. This is an opportunity to build upon my career. I’ve had amazing treatment here. I’m going for it all on Saturday.

“I’m facing a tough guy in his own backyard. But I’m here to make a statement. I want to take him out and give everyone a good fight. I’m hoping he brings the best out of me. Voy a ganar. I’m ready to finish him any way possible.”

KEVIN SEARS (Nueva Jersey) vs. AHMED SAMIR (Pensilvania) – Pesos pesados

Sears: “This means a lot to me. I’ve fought in 10 leagues and this has been the best experience by far. MMA Pro League just cares about their fighters.

“Samir looks really tough and I know he has a lot of experience. Everyone is dangerous at this level and it only takes on punch to go to sleep. I’m going to go for the finish right from the start.”

ATLANTIC CITY (Septiembre 10, 2018)–DeCarlo Pérez and Antowyan Aikens lived up to the pre-fight hype of a knockdown- dragout war that eventually saw Perez eek out an eight-round unanimous decision on Saturday night at The Bourbon Room inside the Showboat Hotel in Atlantic City.

 

The bout between Atlantic City rivals, which gave Perez the New Jersey State Super Middleweight title, headlined an terrific 10-bout card promoted by Rising Star Promotions.

They gave it to him based off of his knockdown,” said Aikens. “After I knocked him down, I should have slowed up and took my time. In the next round, he caught me with a good shot.

CLAUDIO LEDESMA

Weight Class: Peso mosca

Procedencia: West Orange, Nueva Jersey

 

Why do you fight?

“I fight because I love the sport and I feel I was gifted the ability to do it competitively. So I can’t let it go to waste.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“My favorite fighter is actually a blend of Frankie Edgar and Marlon Moraes. I look up to both of them as fighters and try to put a little piece of each of them in my game.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“I’m a jiu jitsu black belt. Jiu jitsu is what got my foot in the door but now I’m a complete fighter and don’t really favor any single style.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“I love New Jersey. I was born and bred here. MMA Pro League allows me to represent my state!”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“It’s the diversity. Jersey is a melting pot of different cultures and backgrounds. I believe this state breeds the toughest guys around.”

 

TURPAL KHAMZAYEV

Weight Class: 130-pound Catchweight

Procedencia: Clifton, Nueva Jersey

 

Why do you fight?

“I fight because it’s in my blood. I was born to fight and that’s what I do best.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“Growing up as a kid I used to watch boxing, and some of the boxers I really enjoyed watching were Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson and Prince Naseem Hamed. I also steal a little bit of everyone’s styles from different contact sports, because you can’t be a one-dimensional fighter in modern MMA.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“My fighting background is pretty much all aspects of contact sports. I’ve earned a second-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, I have multiple grappling titles, multiple kickboxing/Muay Thai titles and three amateur MMA titles in two different promotions and in two different weight classes.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“MMA Pro League is the right fit for me because they are doing something new. It’s something that has not been done before, having two states compete against each other to see who wins. It is also a little different from other promotions because in other promotions you just go and fight for yourself, but in MMA Pro League you have a whole state behind you, and all the pressure is on you because you don’t want to let your team down.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“My favorite thing about New Jersey is that we always bring the heat in any competition against anyone.”

 

KEVIN SEARS

Weight Class: De peso pesado

Procedencia: Newark, Nueva Jersey

Why do you fight?

There’s a lot of different reasons why I fight. The first reason was because I was a fan. I love the sport and entertainment, but the real reason why I fight is for my daughter and to show her you can chase your dreams and be great at something you’re passionate about.

 

 

 

I visited the UFC Expo at the first one they had in Las Vegas. It was a totally life-changing experience. I was just a fan of UFC and MMA, but when I went down there I knew that I was destined to be a fighter, gladiator and a badass.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“My favorite fighter more recently was Kimbo Slice, may he rest in peace. I did have a favorite fighter growing up, and yes, it was the one and only Georges St-Pierre. If it wasn’t ‘GSP’ then it was Tito Ortiz, just some all-around badass dudes.

 

 

 

Nowadays I really don’t follow fighting, but if I had to say my favorite active fighter fighting now, it’s definitely Jose Aldo. I’m an old school UFC guy from back in the day. Now I just see competition.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“My fighting style is just brawl and cause damage in there. I really don’t have a style. I go in there and try to get the job done even if it’s sloppy. You could say I’m emulating Kimbo combined with a wrestler.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“MMA Pro League is for me because it’s my next challenge and I can’t wait.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

My favorite thing about New Jersey is my Aunt Denise, my grandma and my cousin Jazz. They lived in Newark most of their lives. Those are my people.”

 

MARK KOLKER

Weight Class: Welter

Procedencia: Mobile, AL

 

Why do you fight?

“I like to fight because fighting is one of the few things in life I’m truly passionate about and gives me purpose. Also fighting provides the opportunity for a better life.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“I don’t really emulate any one fighter. I try to pick up as much as I can from different fighters and coaches and mix them into my game.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“I am a mixed martial artist and have been fighting as an amateur and professional for four years now.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“I am excited to fight for MMA Pro League because it is a well-run organization, and the opportunity to fight on their first show in Atlantic City seems like a great opportunity.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“I am not from New Jersey although I train there. I am representing Mobile, Alabama. My favorite thing about Mobile is that on the coast we are a family, and we are eager to show the talent we have on the Gulf Coast.”

 

SHAN CELIA

Weight Class: Peso pluma

Procedencia: Wayne, Nueva Jersey

 

Why do you fight?

“I fight for many reasons. I have a lot of passion for this sport and am looking to become the best.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“My favorite fighter other than myself would have to be Muhammad Ali because of the impact he had around the world. I wish to do the same one day, in my own way. I watch many fighters and am always studying combat, taking techniques from all the greats in all combat sports.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“I started in full on MMA, not one specific background.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“MMA Pro League is the right fit for me because they are professionals and take it seriously just like me.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“My favorite thing about New Jersey is most people from here are blue collar, hard-working people, and it pushes me to chase my dreams.”

 

FRANCISCO MUNIZ

Weight Class: 140-pound Catchweight

Procedencia: Caguas, Puerto Rico

 

Why do you fight?

“Because I have a huge chip on my shoulder.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“I don’t have a favorite fighter, I just try to be me.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“Brazilian jiu jitsu is my style.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“Because they’re giving me a shot that I’m worthy of.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“It’s close to so many great things, like New York.”

 

GABRIEL RUIZ

Weight Class: Peso gallo

Procedencia: Woodland Park, Nueva Jersey

 

Why do you fight?

“I fight because I love to compete and the rush of going out there to the cage and being the best man of the night.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“My favorite fighter is Rich Franklin. I kind of got my style from him. I just go out and fight and put my heart out there.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“I have an all-around background, but I love to stand up. I feel comfortable anywhere though.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“MMA Pro League is the right fit for me because we are taken care of and it has a lot of benefits that people are going to see both immediately and over time.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“My favorite thing in New Jersey is the people. We’re Jersey strong. También, the food is great here.”

 

MIKE PAGANO

Weight Class: Peso pluma

Procedencia: Stanhope, Nueva Jersey

 

Why do you fight?

“I fight because when I was growing up I was picked on and bullied a lot. I had to learn how to stand up for myself. También, later on in my youth I had to take care of my father who was very sick with brain cancer, which took his life in 2008.

 

 

 

Seeing my father go through his daily battles and frustrations made me realize I could overcome anything in life. My father was and will always be my hero. He was one of the toughest, stubbornest, hardest workers I had the pleasure of knowing and had the pleasure of calling my dad. Each time I step into that cage I know he`s with me.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“My favorite fighter, or fighters if I could merge them together, would have to be Georges St-Pierre, Dominick Cruz, Mike Tyson and Buakaw Banchamek. As far as emulating their styles, each has something I like within their fighting styles or fighter I.Q., but for me I like to be my own fighter. I never want to be a paper cut out version of someone else. That`s the beautiful thing about MMA, all these different styles can mesh into one and you can create your style how you want.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“I`m a wrestler, boxer and black belt in jiu jitsu under Sean “Shorty Rock” Santella.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“I feel MMA Pro League is the right fit for me because they are starting their own chapter in MMA and I love being a part of it! I like the concept as far as team versus team and the way you can collect points for your team by either KO/TKO, Submission, or Decision. It definitely makes a fighter want to push harder for that big win!”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“The Pizza!”

 

JUSTIN OSBORN

Weight Class: Ligero

Procedencia: Mobile, AL

 

Why do you fight?

“It’s what I love to do. This is what comes naturally to me. I was born to fight, plain and simple.”

 

Do you have a favorite fighter or someone you try to emulate?

“I’m trying to emulate the best Justin Osborn possible.”

 

What is your fighting background and style?

“Wrestling is my style.”

 

Why is MMA Pro League the right fit for you?

“They are giving me a cage to fight in and an opponent to fight. I’m here to fight my heart out and they are giving me a platform to do so.”

 

What is your favorite thing about New Jersey?

“I’ve never been on the East Coast before, so I’m looking forward to experiencing it.”

Atlantic City, Nueva Jersey (Agosto 22, 2018) – Glen Tapia has suffered a shoulder injury in training, thus elevating an “All-Atlantic City Battle” between super middleweights Antowyan Aikens y DeCarlo Pérez to the eight-round main event on Sábado, 08 de septiembre en The Bourbon Room en El Showboat hotel en Atlantic City.

 

 

 

La lucha, which will be for the New Jersey State Super Middleweight title, will headline a card “Boardwalk Boxing: Round 3”, promoted by Rising Star Promotions

 

 

 

Aikens of Atlantic City has a record of 13-4-1 con un solo golpe de gracia. La 29 year-old Aikens won his first ten bouts. He has significant victories over undefeated Sherman Arits (2-0) & Amir Shabazz (4-0).

 

 

 

Aikens is riding a two-fight winning streak, as in his last bout he won a six-round unanimous decision over Rich Gringas on May 11th in Lincoln, Rhode Island.

 

 

 

This will be the eighth appearance in Atlantic City for Aikens.

 

 

 

“This fight to me is one of those fights that you dream about but never expect it to happen,” said Aikens. “This fight will be one to talk about for many years to come and I’m looking forward to putting on a great show in my hometown in front of my family and friends. Words cannot express how happy and excited I am. I can’t wait to put on a great performance that night. I got a great team around me. I’m focused on the task at hand; I’m ready for anything they have to offer.”

 

 

 

“I’m ready for whatever comes September 8. My jab and superior boxing skills will lead me to what I’m killing myself in the gym for and that’s the NJ State Championship. I will not be denied that night. You will get the best iceman you ever seen and that’s a fact. I’m bringing all action that night, first fight at home in 3 año. I can’t do nothing but bring my A game. It’s been a long wait but its here and its now, I’m war ready”

En su última pelea, Perez was stopped by former two-time world title challenger Ronald Gavril on April 29, 2017 Las Vegas.

 

 

 

“My thoughts on the fight are just as any other fight. I have to go in, apply my skills and allow the game plan to unfold, simple y llanamente. Now if someone would ask what the game plan is, it’s simple and that is to win by all means.,” said Perez. “To me it’s another fight where someone is trying to take the roof over my family’s head away, trying to take food out there mouths and I have to make sure that they can’t. The fact that its for a title puts me in a place where my work ethic is just multiplied by a million and more. I am excited to be fighting in my hometown and can’t wait to put on a great show.”

 

 

 

“I am hungry. I think a lot of people see that I haven’t been active and think they can take advantage of it. Well that’s a bad idea because I’m always training and always preparing myself. You know what they say, ‘stay ready so you don’t have to get ready’ eso es lo que hago. I think a lot of people would agree and say I’m a very formidable opponent on short notice and now basically given me 10 weeks to prepare for someone, so I’m excited and looking forward to bringing my best.”

en ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY
Entradas a la venta AHORA a través de Ticketmaster.com

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – El CEO de LFA, Ed Soares, anunció hoy que la promoción se dirigirá a “El parque infantil mundialmente famoso” con un par de duelos de peso welter en la cima de la LFA 49, cuando la promoción visite Atlantic City, Nueva Jersey en septiembre. Este será el primer viaje del LFA al noreste.

 

 

 

El evento principal del LFA 49 contará con un enfrentamiento de peso wélter cuando dos de los prospectos más promocionados del deporte chocan. El cabeza de cartel de alto riesgo empareja a Sean Brady y Gilbert Urbina en una batalla de prospectos invictos. LFA 49 – Brady vs. Urbina tiene lugar el viernes, 14 de septiembre en el Golden Nugget Casino, Hotel & Marina en Atlantic City, Nueva Jersey. Toda la cartelera principal será transmitido en vivo en todo el país y en la televisión en AXS 9 p.m. Y / 6 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

“Estoy emocionado de traer LFA al noreste,” Declarado Soares. “Atlantic City es una gran ciudad de lucha con una larga, historia en la lucha por el premio. El 14 de septiembre, LFA agregará otro capítulo a la historia de los deportes de combate de la ciudad. LFA 49 contará con un evento principal de primer nivel entre los prospectos invictos Sean Brady y Gilbert Urbina, que tiene lugar en el mundialmente famoso Golden Nugget Casino, Hotel & Marina en Atlantic City.”

 

 

 

Las entradas para LFA 49 – Brady vs. Urbina están disponibles para su compra AHORA en Ticketmaster.com.

 

 

 

Brady (8-0) es el mejor prospecto de la costa este y considerado uno de los mejores prospectos de peso welter del mundo. Llega a la LFA después de ganar sus ocho peleas profesionales., que incluye peleas por el título regional en sus últimos tres concursos. El destacado de Renzo Gracie Filadelfia ganó su primer título en mayo del año pasado por sumisión. Luego lo defendió presentando al veterinario de LFA Mike Jones en octubre pasado. La mayor victoria de su carrera, sin embargo, llegó el pasado mes de marzo en su segunda defensa del título. Esto vino contra el veterinario de UFC y The Ultimate Fighter 16 ganador Colton Smith. Brady derrotó al cuatro veces veterano de UFC por decisión unánime. Ahora el Filadelfiano de 25 años ha subido la apuesta al firmar con LFA para enfrentarse a un compañero invicto en LFA. 49.

 

 

 

Urbina (5-0) es quizás el único prospecto de peso welter que puede igualar la intriga que rodea a Brady. Esto se debe en gran parte al hecho de que Gilbert Urbina, años 22, viene de una famosa familia de luchadores texanos. Su hermano mayor Héctor Urbina, años 30, es un veterano de UFC en tres ocasiones que también fue miembro del elenco en dos temporadas del exitoso programa de televisión de realidad de UFC The Ultimate Fighter (TUF 19 y TUF 25). Mientras tanto, su otro hermano Elias Urbina, años 24, ha competido en la serie de televisión del presidente de UFC, Dana White Serie de contendientes de martes por la noche de Dana White así como The Ultimate Fighter ya que era miembro del elenco de TUF 23.

El evento co-principal de LFA 49 También contará con un choque de peso welter cuando dos de los peleadores más emocionantes de la división busquen hacer una declaración durante el primer viaje de la LFA a AC. Resulta que son hombres acostumbrados a las luces brillantes y la atención de los medios.. El primero es Jonavin “La araña” Webb (10-2), quien es un compañero de equipo de Brady en Renzo Gracie Philly. Webb se hizo un nombre en la costa este antes de firmar con UFC en 2015. Webb actualmente tiene una racha de dos victorias consecutivas y se enfrentará a uno de los luchadores más llamativos de la división.. Ese seria Tanner “El Martillo” Saraceno (7-2). Cuando Webb estaba peleando en UFC, Saraceno estaba ocupado haciendo un nombre por sí mismo al competir en la sexta temporada de la serie de televisión de lucha libre profesional de la WWE. Lo suficientemente resistente. Saraceno, que ahora vive en Carolina del Sur, está ansioso por continuar su ascenso en MMA al capturar la mayor victoria de su carrera en LFA 49.

 

 

 

La carta principal de LFA 49 también contará con uno de los debuts más esperados del año en el MMA femenino. Ese sería el debut de la tres veces campeona nacional de boxeo de Estados Unidos, Danyelle Wolf.. En 2014, Wolf apareció en el mundialmente famoso “El tema del cuerpo” junto a la leyenda del box y su compañero Bernard Hopkins, nativo del sureste de Pensilvania. Wolf era un atleta de tres deportes en la Universidad de Millersville de Pensilvania., donde compitió en baloncesto, pista (heptatlón), y hockey sobre césped antes de ganar sus tres títulos nacionales de boxeo de EE. UU., Título de Golden Gloves (boxeo), y título IBJJF (Jiu-Jitsu). Wolf compitió en 152 libras en boxeo, pero competirá en 145 libras en MMA. El próximo capítulo de su carrera comienza contra la veterinaria de LFA Courtney King en LFA 49. King es una conocida reina molesta en LFA, que se hizo un nombre el verano pasado al descarrilar el esperado debut de Colbey Northcutt, quien es la hermana mayor de la estrella de UFC Sage Northcutt. King detuvo a Northcutt por TKO en LFA 14 y buscará provocar otra sorpresa en LFA 49.

Atlantic City, Nueva Jersey (Junio 1, 2018)–Supermediano Derrick Webster pounded his way to a 10-round unanimous decision over Oscar Riojas in the main event of a five-bout card at El Claridge Hotel.

 

 

 

Mis Downing Promotions promoted the near-capacity show.

 

 

 

Con la victoria, Webster captured the American Boxing Federation Continental Americas Super Middleweight title.

 

 

 

Webster was pinpoint with his jab, which he followed with a solid body work that reddened the sides of Riojas. Webster stunned the gritty Riojas on several occasions, but the visitor from Monterrey, Mexico showed a good chin and remained on his feet for the ten-round bout.

 

 

 

Scores were all 100-90 in favor of Webster of Glassboro, Nueva Jersey, quien ahora 26-1. Riojas is 16-10-1.

 

 

 

“It was boxing in there. I put on a display. Roy Jones told me to keep him long, y eso es lo que hice. I started the body work a little late, but the jab was my key. I could have done a little more with the body, pero el jab fue todo esta noche,” dijo Webster.

 

 

 

“En la 1ra ronda, Lo golpeé con una gran mano derecha, pero la campana lo salvó. Le pegué bien un par de veces más. Algunos chicos saben como sobrevivir, y él es uno de ellos.”

 

 

 

“Hemos estado hablando con la USBA sobre la lucha por su título.. Eso me llevará a donde necesito estar. Estoy listo para una oportunidad por el título mundial. He estado diciendo que me gustaría pelear con George Groves o Tyron Zuege.. Iré a China o Alemania o donde sea para luchar contra esos tipos.”

 

Isiah Seldon anotó dos caídas en el camino a una decisión unánime en seis asaltos sobre Lamar Harris en una pelea de peso súper mediano.

 

 

 

En la cuarta ronda, Seldon conectó un derechazo perfecto que envió a Harris a la cubierta. En la quinta ronda, era otro derecho que el loco Harris’ guante toca la lona por segunda vez.

 

 

 

Seldon of Atlantic City won by scores of 60-52 dos veces y 59-53 y es ahora 12-1-1. Harris de St. Louis is 9-15-4.
