Залишити коментар

 

SANTA MONICA, КАЛИФОРНИЯ (Грудня. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, І Рут (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place в цю п'ятницю на "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Бельтран," на Грудня. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4PM ET/PT.

 

В тільки 26 років, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Тайрелл Фортуна (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) а також Аарон Піко і Ромеро Бавовна – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, Пенсільванія, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Каліфорнія., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Джош Кошчек і Кріс Honeycutt, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on Листопад. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 у першому турі.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Алессіо Sakara (18-11, 2 Північна Кароліна), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 Північна Кароліна) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, у тому числі Джон Солтер (12-3), Ямаучи до (31-9) і Філіп Лінс(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Деніз Кільгольц (45-3) і Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator кікбоксингу: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 Північна Кароліна) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Джо Шилінг (19-9) проти Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) з Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), і Kevin Ross(31-9) зустрінеться Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) в легкому боротьбі.

An 8-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Yamauchi enters the cage in search of his 21вулиця career win and seventh under the Scott Coker-led promotion. You would be hard-pressed to find a fighter with more promise than the 23-year-old top prospect, who has already taken down proven veterans the likes of Martin Stapleton, Исао Кобаясі, а останнім часом Райан Couture. The former featherweight returned to the lightweight division to face the aforementioned Couture earlier in the year at "Bellator 162: Шлеменко проти. Роща," a fight in which Yamauchi dominated from the get-go, earning yet another first round submission victory. Yamauchi has finished his opponent in 17 з його 20 career wins, у тому числі 14 in the opening round of action. The Japanese-Brazilian submission specialist continues to make great strides in the sport, consistently displaying the flawless Brazilian jiu-jitsu technique that has given opponents many nightmares year after year.

Challenging Yamauchi will be Valeriu Mircea, a Moldova-born competitor that has also seen a great deal of success early on in his MMA career. The 23-year-old knockout artist will be making his Bellator MMA debut following three consecutive victories, including a pair of first round knockouts. Dating back to 2015, Mircea has collected wins in nine of his last 10 bouts and has already tallied six victories over his 2016 кампанія. With three of his last four wins coming by way of first round knockout, you can expect an early array of attack in this pairing of two top prospects.

Taking on Lins will now be Raimundo Silva, a 28-year-old striker who will be making both his 2016 and Bellator MMA debut. Dating back to 2011, “Orgulho” has won seven of his last 11 конкурси, highlighted by his most recent knockout victory over Claudio Rocha, which came just 3:25 у першому турі.

MIDDLEWEIGHT BOUT PITTING JOHN SALTER AGAINST CLAUDIO ANNICCHIARICO ADDED TO MAIN CARD OF BELLATOR MMA’S RETURN TO ITALY

SANTA MONICA, КАЛИФОРНИЯ (Листопад 1, 2016) – A light heavyweight bout pitting Філіп Лінс (10-1) проти Pietro Cappelli (2-1) and a middleweight fight between Джон Солтер (12-3) і Claudio Annicchiarico (1-4) have been added to "Bellator 168: Карвалью проти. Manhoef 2,” which will feature both Bellator MMA and Bellator Kickboxing brands emanating from the Mandela Forum in Florence on Dec. 10.

The evening is highlighted by a main event middleweight world title rematch pitting Рафаель Карвалью (13-1) проти Мелвін Манхуф (30-13-1, 2 Північна Кароліна). На додаток, Italy’s own Алессіо Sakara (18-11, 2 Північна Кароліна) і Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 Північна Кароліна) will duke it out in a light heavyweight feature fight. "Bellator 168: Карвалью проти. Manhoef 2” will air on SPIKE at 4PM ET/PT.

A native of Florence, Італія, Cappelli has made an immediate splash in MMA, earning consecutive victories following his professional debut in 2015. Cappelli’s first career win came at the expense of Andrzej Kulik, when the 32-year-old delivered a brutal first round knockout. He then parlayed the emphatic victory with another first round finish, displaying his noteworthy ground game with a keylock submission just one minute and one second into the bout. With a noticeable message reading “unscarred” across his stomach, the Italian competitor prepares to dive in head first with a challenging matchup against the veteran Lins in his Bellator MMA debut.

The 31-year-old Lins will enter the cage for the 12th time in his career and fifth since making his Bellator MMA debut in 2014. Родом з Бразилії, Lins began his professional career on a nine-fight winning streak, finishing opponents in seven of the victories. “Monstro” has recorded a trio of significant victories since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion, including two first round finishes and his most recent knockout win over fellow Brazilian competitor Вільям Віана на "Bellator 159: Колдвелл проти. Taimanglo.” Lins hopes to build off of his big win and silence a crowd that will be heavily in favor of his Italian opponent Cappelli.

Fresh off of his first career victory, a first round knockout over Ilyrian Hoxhay, the 32-year-old Annicchiarico looks to continue his success when he enters the cage for the first time under the direction of Bellator MMA. The Italian middleweight will face a difficult first test in Salter, a 15-fight veteran that hasn’t been defeated since 2012. With a pair of submission defeats to Salter’s name, look for Annicchiarico to take the fight to the ground and grind it out there.

The former Strikeforce competitor Salter will make his third appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, after recording victories in his first two bouts with the promotion. He is riding a recent string of success, having won four consecutive contests and seven of his past eight. Over his seven-year career, the 31-year-old Nashville, Тенн., native has collected a dozen professional victories, recording finishes in all. With nine of his 12 career wins coming in the opening round of action, Salter is known to be one of the quickest strikers in the division and most recently finished former middleweight champion Brandon Halsey.
