SHOWTIME® ANNOUNCES RAW AND REVEALING DOCUMENTARY CHRONICLING SPORTSCASTER MAURO RANALLO AND HIS LIFELONG BATTLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS

Leave a comment

 

BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER Premieres During Mental Health Awareness Month

En Divendres, Maig 25 a 9 p.m. I/PT per SHOWTIME

Foto cortesia: SHOWTIME/Amanda Westcott

 

NOVA YORK – Abril 30, 2018 – Prolific combat sports broadcaster Mauro Ranallo and his lifelong battle with mental illness are the subject of a new documentary film from SHOWTIME Sports®. BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER – named for the moniker Ranallo gave himself as a broadcast personality and DJ in the early 90’s – will premiere on SHOWTIME during Mental Health Awareness Month on Friday, Maig 25 a 9 p.m. ET / PT.

 

First look video: https://s.sho.com/2Ft4Mig

 

 

Ranallo has Bipolar Affective Disorder, a condition afflicting nearly five percent of the U.S. population according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI.org). As a national sportscaster for preeminent boxing, mixed martial arts and WWE events, Ranallo has long been an advocate for ending the stigma of mental illness. Ara, per primera vegada, he exposes the true extent of his daily struggle. Through extensive behind-the-scenes video footage, candid personal interviews and detailed accounts from his loved ones and doctors, BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER takes an unflinching look at mental illness and its effects.

 

 

 

The film explores Ranallo’s career, including his work on the two biggest pay-per-view events in television history, i la seva incansable recerca d'un somni infantil malgrat les probabilitats aparentment insuperables. Through this deeply personal portrait, Ranallo hopes that the film might inspire others to persevere in pursuing their dreams despite the challenges of a mental health condition.

 

 

 

“I have always tried to do my part to bring awareness to mental health issues,” said Ranallo. “Over the last several years, I allowed my best friend, Haris (Usanovic), to film me at my lowest points as well as at my highest. The idea is simply to show others who suffer that they are not alone and that, even when the outlook is bleak, you can overcome and achieve success. Mental illness is a life sentence—there is no cure—but it doesn’t have to be a death sentence.”

 

 

 

“Through BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER, Mauro Ranallo has chosen to share not only his life’s dreams, but his nightmares as well,"Va dir Stephen Espinoza, President, Sports and Event Programming for Showtime Networks Inc. “Having reached the pinnacle of his profession, Mauro bravely turns his keen observational skills inward to examine his own life-long battle. The result is a raw, poignant and ultimately inspirational film that personifies Mauro’s courage and selflessness.”

 

 

 

Ranallo is a popular fixture on today’s combat sports scenes. In a career that has spanned more than 30 any, he has called everything from “All-Star Wrestling,” a Canadian professional wrestling outfit, to historic MMA events for PRIDE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS out of Japan, to WWE SmackDown Live on USA Network, to many of the biggest boxing events in the world for SHOWTIME Sports. Ranallo was the first broadcaster to call play-by-play on boxing, kickboxing, MMA and professional wrestling events on national television.

 

 

 

Avui, Ranallo is the voice of three prominent nationally televised series: SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING®, WWE’s weekly show NXT on WWE Network, i Bellator MMA on Paramount Network. Perhaps best known for his dramatic, excitable style, Ranallo is a student of the English language. He has already made a lasting mark on the industry having called the two biggest pay-per-view events in television history: Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao (Maig 2015, international telecast); i Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor (Agost. 2017, SHOWTIME PPV®).

 

BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N ROLLER is produced by Brian Dailey, the network’s Vice President, Sports Digital Content and Strategy, and MALKA MEDIA GROUP. Directed by first-time filmmaker Haris Usanovic, the film is executive produced by Stephen Espinoza and SHOWTIME Sports.

El cas de Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Vs. CM Punk a la gàbia d'UFC

Leave a comment

Per: Rich Bergeron

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. no s'ha acabat de lluitar. Els diners que va guanyar amb Conor McGregor en un partit de boxa unilateral no seran molt fàcils de guanyar fora del perillós món dels esports de combat.. La jubilació sempre sembla menjar a Floyd, i tard o d'hora torna per a un altre combat de gran èxit que commociona el món.

 

CM Punk necessita un sorteig per interessar-nos per la seva carrera. Fins i tot si guanya la merda sempre viva del següent noi, l'alimenten a l'Octògon de l'UFC, El punk encara tindrà molt per demostrar. Posa'l contra Mayweather en un combat de benvinguda a MMA per al boxejador de classe mundial, i convertir-lo en la configuració de somni per a Floyd que li dóna tots els avantatges i concessions de patrocini que vol en el contracte.

 

Floyd seria un desfavorit automàtic contra McGregor immediatament a la gàbia. Un desafiador com CM Punk li dóna més possibilitats de lluitar. Dóna a CM punk l'oportunitat de llançar realment la seva carrera si pot vèncer a Floyd.

 

El fet és, Mayweather pot aprendre ràpidament l'esport de les arts marcials mixtes, i amb la seva velocitat i atletisme, amb opcions més sorprenents, ens podria sorprendre en la seva primera lluita de MMA… si realment recolza el seu discurs de lluitar a la gàbia amb acció.

 

Durant la gira pel partit de boxa, Floyd va fer referència repetidament a la idea de lluitar contra McGregor a la gàbia després que el partit de boxa se'n va anar.. No diu coses en veu alta que realment no creu que siguin certes o que poguessin ser-ho si hi posava el seu esforç..

 

Vaig tenir la sort de quedar-me a la vora del ring al costat de Leonard Ellerbe durant una sessió d'entrenament de Mayweather a Las Vegas fa anys..

 

Abans de donar cops de puny als guants, li vaig preguntar què li agradava més de la boxa. No vaig intentar apropar-me durant la gran pressa, així que crec que no s'esperava la pregunta.

 

Es va asseure en silenci, i no volia que quedés penjat com un pet dolent al vent. Ho vaig tornar a preguntar, encara més fort. No va mirar cap a mi mentre s'enfrontava amb ell mateix. “Tot.” finalment va concedir, i després es va posar a treballar per mostrar la seva velocitat i la seva destresa de puny per a tots els mitjans de comunicació.

 

Incorporant colzes, punys enrere, puntades i lluita a la seva rutina de lluita podrien crear un autèntic monstre de Mayweather. També, els diners de la boxa que el seguiria a la gàbia podrien ser enormes tant per a ell com per a la UFC. Caldrà molta feina a la seva edat per adaptar-se al nou esport, però CM Punk com a primer oponent posa el llistó bastant baix amb els dos homes tenint l'oportunitat de demostrar que pertanyen. Doneu-los a tots dos un camp d'entrenament seriós, fer-ne un reality show, i podria passar.

 

 

 

“Diners” ja es prepara per entrenar en arts marcials mixtes amb el campió de l'UFC Tyron Woodley, i recentment va elogiar Woodley i McGregor com a lluitadors:

 

"Llavors hem de modificar algunes coses, portar les coses al següent nivell. Ja saps que no puc passar per alt o colpejar cap noi de MMA. Tyron és increïble. Un lluitador increïble, competidor dur. Conor McGregor, és un competidor dur, hola lluitador. Hi ha molt de dur, nois durs que hi ha a MMA i no els puc passar per alt ni menysprear-los".

 

 

 

El debat de MMA versus boxa ha tingut lloc des de molt abans que decidís fer-ho amb una sèrie de programes de ràdio que enfrontaven un expert contra un altre.. Un dels meus preferits era “Repartidor de gel” John Scully contra Ken Shamrock.

 

No és d'estranyar, el debat entre aquests dos experts en lluitadors/entrenadors va derivar cap a Mayweather fent el crossover a MMA. Aquest no és un concepte nou per a Floyd. Fa més d'una dècada que escolta els crítics sobre ell no arribar mai a les MMA, sempre pensant en com podria algun dia demostrar que els seus odiadors s'equivocaven.

 

 

Qualsevol que pensi que el millor lluitador de MMA de la seva classe de pes demoleix Floyd mai no l'ha vist entrenar. Què podria fer aquest tipus amb un parell de baralles de posada a punt i una inclinació del títol?? Què tal 9 mesos d'entrenament dur en derriba i defensa de submissió?

 

Tothom i el seu germà que sàpiga alguna cosa sobre les MMA decideixen utilitzar l'argument de tots els boxejadors anteriors que van fallar a les MMA.. Ens recorden a tots la lluita de freakshow en què Randy Couture va derrotar fàcilment James Toney. Floyd Mayweather, Jr. No només està a un nivell diferent del que estava James Toney quan va tenir l'oportunitat de lluitar a la gàbia, està en un planeta diferent.

 

 

Floyd es pot permetre els millors entrenadors, el millor de tot en la preparació per entrar a l'Octògon UFC. No estalviarà cap despesa en finances i sudor equitat per consolidar el seu llegat com el millor lluitador crossover de la història de la rivalitat de boxa i MMA.. Qui té els millors atletes de veritat? Mayweather representa el millor de la boxa, i no li queda gaire temps per demostrar que un boxejador de classe mundial pot dominar l'escena de MMA amb l'enfocament i l'estratègia adequats..

 

 

 

McGregor va demostrar que podia donar-li uns quants atacs a Floyd al ring de boxa, però a la tercera lluita en un contracte UFC, aquest partit podria tornar a passar a la gàbia. Floyd només ha de demostrar que pertany, però el primer pas és tenir el valor de recolzar les seves paraules amb accions. Va dir a la gira de premsa de boxa per a la lluita de McGregor que quan va vèncer a McGregor en el seu propi ofici, aniria a l'UFC i guanyaria a Conor a la gàbia, massa.

 

 

 

anticipo a “Tanc de taurons” tipus de negociació entre Mayweather i la presidenta de la UFC, Dana White. Floyd haurà d'aconseguir una part de la promoció, accés a una quantitat salvatge d'efectiu de patrocini, opcions per cobrar els ingressos dels mitjans, i almenys $10 milions per lluita en un sou base just. Per aconseguir el contracte de mil milions de dòlars que preveu, els advocats estaran preparant els detalls mentre Floyd decideixi que ha d'entrenar per a la seva primera baralla.

 

Floyd podria entrar fàcilment $90+ milions en patrocinis i ingressos dels mitjans de comunicació $100 milions per baralla amb executius de Showtime al seu racó i una familiaritat amb estar davant de les càmeres. Un acord de cinc baralles significa que hi ha un 1/2 diferència de mil milions de dòlars tret que estic subestimant quant li donaria l'UFC a Floyd pel sou base. Encara que ho faci $200 milions per lluita, la resta hauria de sortir de la pròpia corporació global com a capital, que és el que ha demanat Conor McGregor.

 

Floyd només té un avantatge més gran de ser propietari/soci i seria un gran actiu quan es tracta de que l'UFC vulgui promoure la boxa en algun moment.. També pot portar els seus aficionats i tothom qui vulgui veure'l assotat i educat en la nova disciplina. Porta globus oculars, atenció extrema i diners amb ell allà on vagi. A l'a $5 valoració de mil milions, l'UFC probablement podria separar-se d'un deu per cent de la promoció per incorporar oficialment a Mayweather i bloquejar-lo per a un acord a llarg termini..

 

 

L'altra àrea en la qual Floyd podria tenir un gran impacte és atraure més boxejadors per passar a les MMA.. Hem vist jugadors de futbol com Matt Mitrione i Greg Hardy experimentar un èxit pràcticament immediat en MMA., Així que per què no un boxejador de classe mundial com Floyd? 19-0 El boxejador professional Gervonta Davis ja insinua seguir el seu protegit Floyd a les MMA i diu només està esperant la trucada telefònica de Dana White. Després hi ha els boxejadors de pes pesat per pensar en portar a la gàbia, i Campió de la paraula Anthony Joshua té moltes ganes de fer-ho, massa.

 

 

 

Així, les probabilitats són altes que Mayweather entri a la gàbia per competir el desembre d'aquest any si creieu que un dels seus vídeos més controvertits fins ara sobre el tema:

 

 

Mayweather podria ser un lluitador de MMA increïble si se li dona la meitat de l'oportunitat. No és un home que pren un repte com aquest a la lleugera. Tindrà el millor enfocament possible per posar-se en forma de lluita en gàbia. Tornarà a portar tot tipus d'interès a la boxa vs. Debat sobre MMA i fins i tot podria inspirar una fase completament nova d'aquest debat. El món dels esports de combat en conjunt es beneficiarà si Floyd i l'UFC poden fer que aquesta associació funcioni.

 

 

Pel que fa als que pensen que Floyd es menjarà viu, sens dubte tenen dret a la seva opinió, però no utilitzeu el fracàs de McGregor per adaptar-se a la boxa com a bar per a Floyd. Mayweather no s'enfrontarà a un lluitador de MMA de classe mundial la primera vegada que trepitgi la gàbia. No portarà l'equivalent de MMA a Paulie Malignaggi per posar-se al dia amb l'esport. No estalviarà cap despesa per obtenir la millor preparació possible. Ja està demostrant que això és cert fent que Tyron Woodley sigui el seu company d'entrenament oficial. Escollirà a mà el seu primer oponent i probablement no obtindrà cap crack en un títol fins que dos o tres baralles surtin al seu camí.

 

Els crítics de persones que pensen que poden presentar-se a un gimnàs de MMA i sortir en sis setmanes a nivell d'UFC em diràn boig, però Floyd és realment un atleta increïble que pot calmar els seus dubtes, i no es fa més jove. És ara o mai resoldre la qüestió de quin esport és realment millor per crear el lluitador ideal.
