Plano De Comunicação Em Mídias Sociais Para O Site MMA Brasil
Plano de Comunicação em mídias sociais para o site MMA Brasil Florianópolis Novembro de 2017 1.Introdução1 O MMA Brasil, fundado em 2008, é um site sobre esportes de luta, com maior foco no MMA. Assim como outros sites que serão citados mais a frente, ele faz parte da geração de veículos de mídia que surgiram com a popularização da internet e de sites para criação de outros sites, como o Blogspot (do Google) e Wordpress. As mídias sociais são tecnologias e práticas online usadas por pessoas ou empresas para disseminar conteúdo (RECUERO, 2009, p.102 apud SOUSA; AZEVEDO, 2010), enquanto as redes sociais são os locais onde essas pessoas ou empresas se encontram (Facebook, Twitter etc.). A primeira rede social criada foi a Classmates2 em 1995, voltada a reencontros entre colegas de colégio ou faculdade. Depois disso surgiu o Six Degrees, primeiro a apresentar o modelo de mensagens privadas e postagens em murais. Paralelo a esses sites, surgia o ICQ, plataforma para mensagens instantâneas que serviu de base para o MSN Messenger e o Skype. O ICQ não é uma rede social, mas permitia a criação de grupos de chats onde pessoas com interesses em comum podiam conversar. O MySpace, da MSN, surge em 2003 com duas opções “revolucionárias”: permitia compartilhar músicas e manter um blog. Como marketing, a empresa teve como garotos propagandas Ronaldinho Gaúcho e David Beckham, que mantinham blogs atualizados na rede. Inclusive a banda Arctic Monkeys e a cantora brasileira Mallu Magalhães ganharam fama após a divulgação de suas músicas no MySpace. No ano seguinte, duas redes sociais surgiram: Facebook e Orkut. -
BISPING: Barnett Needs to Push the Pace Vs. Nelson
FS1 UFC TONIGHT Show Quotes – 9/23/15 BISPING: Barnett Needs To Push The Pace Vs. Nelson Florian: “Uriah Hall Is Too Dangerous To Just Stand and Trade With” LOS ANGELES – UFC TONIGHT host Kenny Florian and guest host Michael Bisping break down the upcoming FS1 UFC FIGHT NIGHT: BARNETT VS. NELSON. Karyn Bryant and Ariel Helwani add reports. UFC TONIGHT guest host Michael Bisping on how Josh Barnett can beat Roy Nelson: “Josh needs to not get hit by the right hand of Roy. He needs to push the pace of the fight, move forward, and push Roy up against fence and brutalize him with knees and elbows like he did with Frank Mir. Most of his finishes came from the clinch position. He finishes fights against the fence. He did that against Frank Mir.” UFC TONIGHT host Kenny Florian on Barnett avoiding Nelson’s knock out power: “Josh doesn’t want to be on the outside where Roy’s right hand can get him. He wants to be on the inside. He’s been busy on the submission circuit. He’s dangerous on the mat and that’s where he wants to get Roy.” Bisping on how Nelson should fight Barnett: “What Roy can’t get is predictable. If he just tries to throw the big right hand, Barnett is going to see it coming. Roy has to mix up his striking. I’m not sure he’s going to go for takedowns. But he has to mix his striking. His right hand and left hooks, to keep Josh at bay.” Florian on Nelson mixing up his strikes: “The knock on Nelson is his lack of evolution. -

NELSON ON SATURDAY NIGHT No. 8 Ranked Middleweight Michael Bisping and Brian Stann Serve as Analysts LOS ANGELES – UFC heavyweights take center stage at FS1 UFC FIGHT NIGHT live on FS1 and FOX Deportes on Saturday, Sept. 26 (10:00 PM ET) when perennial contender and current No. 11 Roy “Big Country” Nelson (21-11) looks for another big finish against former UFC heavyweight champion and current No. 8 Josh “The Warmaster” Barnett (33-7). With his past 10 wins coming by knockout, THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER season 10 winner Nelson has dynamite in his fists. When he meets Barnett, though, he squares off against a motivated contender eager to impress in his first fight back in Japan in more than five years. “These are two very technical heavyweights,” says FOX UFC analyst Brian Stann. “Roy Nelson has massive power in his hands, but people forget he’s also a black belt in jiu-jitsu. Barnett is also a black belt and is known for his amazing grappling. This is going to be a very big and heavy chess match. They both go into fights to please the fans and put on a performance.” Also featured on the main card is an exciting middleweight battle between No. 6 ranked Gegard Mousasi (37-5-2) vs. THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER season 17 finalist Uriah Hall (12-5).

Cultivating Identity and the Music of Ultimate Fighting
CULIVATING IDENTITY AND THE MUSIC OF ULTIMATE FIGHTING Luke R Davis A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2012 Committee: Megan Rancier, Advisor Kara Attrep © 2012 Luke R Davis All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Megan Rancier, Advisor In this project, I studied the music used in Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) events and connect it to greater themes and aspects of social study. By examining the events of the UFC and how music is used, I focussed primarily on three issues that create a multi-layered understanding of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighters and the cultivation of identity. First, I examined ideas of identity formation and cultivation. Since each fighter in UFC events enters his fight to a specific, and self-chosen, musical piece, different aspects of identity including race, political views, gender ideologies, and class are outwardly projected to fans and other fighters with the choice of entrance music. This type of musical representation of identity has been discussed (although not always in relation to sports) in works by past scholars (Kun, 2005; Hamera, 2005; Garrett, 2008; Burton, 2010; Mcleod, 2011). Second, after establishing a deeper sense of socio-cultural fighter identity through entrance music, this project examined ideas of nationalism within the UFC. Although traces of nationalism fall within the purview of entrance music and identity, the UFC aids in the nationalistic representations of their fighters by utilizing different tactics of marketing and fighter branding. Lastly, this project built upon the above- mentioned issues of identity and nationality to appropriately discuss aspects of how the UFC attempts to depict fighter character to create a “good vs. -

UFC) Started in 1993 As a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Tournament on Pay‐Per‐View to Determine the World’S Greatest Martial Arts Style

Introduction The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) started in 1993 as a mixed martial arts (MMA) tournament on pay‐per‐view to determine the world’s greatest martial arts style. Its main draw was its lack of rules. Weight classes did not exist and rounds continued until one of the competitors got knocked out or submitted to his opponent. Although the UFC initially achieved underground success, it was regarded more as a spectacle than a sport and never attained mainstream popularity. The perceived brutality of the event led to political scrutiny and pressure. Attacks from critics caused the UFC to establish a set of unified rules with greater emphasis placed on the safety. The UFC also successfully petitioned to become sanctioned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. However, these changes occurred too late to have an impact and by 2001, the parent organization of the UFC was on the verge of bankruptcy. The brand was sold to Zuffa LLC, marking the beginning of the UFC’s dramatic rise in popularity. Over the next eight years, the UFC evolved from its underground roots into the premier organization of a rapidly growing sport. -
Are Ufc Fighters Employees Or Independent Contractors?
Conklin Book Proof (Do Not Delete) 4/27/20 8:42 PM TWO CLASSIFICATIONS ENTER, ONE CLASSIFICATION LEAVES: ARE UFC FIGHTERS EMPLOYEES OR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS? MICHAEL CONKLIN* I. INTRODUCTION The fighters who compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (“UFC”) are currently classified as independent contractors. However, this classification appears to contradict the level of control that the UFC exerts over its fighters. This independent contractor classification severely limits the fighters’ benefits, workplace protections, and ability to unionize. Furthermore, the friendship between UFC’s brash president Dana White and President Donald Trump—who is responsible for making appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”)—has added a new twist to this issue.1 An attorney representing a former UFC fighter claimed this friendship resulted in a biased NLRB determination in their case.2 This article provides a detailed examination of the relationship between the UFC and its fighters, the relevance of worker classifications, and the case law involving workers in related fields. Finally, it performs an analysis of the proper classification of UFC fighters using the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Twenty-Factor Test. II. UFC BACKGROUND The UFC is the world’s leading mixed martial arts (“MMA”) promotion. MMA is a one-on-one combat sport that combines elements of different martial arts such as boxing, judo, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, and karate. UFC bouts always take place in the trademarked Octagon, which is an eight-sided cage.3 The first UFC event was held in 1993 and had limited rules and limited fighter protections as compared to the modern-day events.4 UFC 15 was promoted as “deadly” and an event “where anything can happen and probably will.”6 The brutality of the early UFC events led to Senator John * Powell Endowed Professor of Business Law, Angelo State University. -
