Cormier on Why Diaz Wins: “He Still Presents the Same Problems for Conor As the First Fight, Style-Wise and Size-Wise.” FS1 UFC TONIGHT Show Quotes and Videos – 8/17/16 CORMIER ON WHY DIAZ WINS: “HE STILL PRESENTS THE SAME PROBLEMS FOR CONOR AS THE FIRST FIGHT, STYLE-WISE AND SIZE-WISE.” Florian on how McGregor wins: “He’s got to be the faster guy for 25 minutes. He’s got to be patient and smart.” LAS VEGAS – UFC TONIGHT hosts Kenny Florian and Daniel Cormier preview UFC 202: DIAZ VS. MCGREGOR 2 and interview headliners Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor. They also catch up with Anthony Johnson, Glover Teixeira and Donald Cerrone. Karyn Bryant adds reports. UFC TONIGHT host Kenny Florian on Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor at the press conference: “Nate Diaz showed some good head movement. Both guys were getting crazy. I wonder if this was planned by Nate. Nate didn’t want it to be about Conor. Showing up late was a little disrespectful. You got a rematch and you show up late like this? You could argue the reason that Conor lost the last fight was he got too emotional and was trying to knock him out. Maybe Diaz is starting that up again.” UFC TONIGHT host Daniel Cormier on how McGregor can change his approach this fight: “It takes a very good fighter to slip the head and rip like he does and be so accurate. If Conor didn’t have the desire to knock Nate out so early, he probably would have had more success in the fight.” Florian on Diaz’s keys to victory: “Nate has got to use the jab and keep McGregor on the outside. He’s got to back Conor up and not get countered. When he’s pressuring forward, he’s winning fights. And he needs to land the takedown. He’s got the big advantage on the mat.” Cormier on McGregor’s keys to victory: “He’s got to be elusive, moving his head, countering and slipping, and keep his hands up a little more. He’s got to throw kicks. This can’t be a boxing match. He needs to use all his weapons. And he’s got to defend the takedown. He got dominated when he got taken down last time. He’s got to stay on this feet and use his speed advantage and his experience.” Florian picks McGregor to win: “I’m going with Conor. His speed will be a difference, as his ability to slip outside, plus he’s had a full training camp. He’s got to be the faster guy and he’s got to do it for 25 minutes. And he’s got to be patient and smart.” Cormier picks Diaz to win: “I believe he still presents the same problems for Conor as the first fight. And Nate’s had a full camp now. It’s a tough fight style-wise, size-wise.” Cormier picks Anthony Johnson to beat Glover Teixeira: “I wouldn’t be surprised if Glover did it, but I think Anthony is going to take it. I believe the power early is going to be a problem.” VIDEO: StrikeZone and Predictions: UFC 202: DIAZ VS. MCGREGOR 2 http://www.foxsports.com/video/UFC?vid=746258499619 Nate Diaz on what happened at the press conference: “That guy walked in like he was the show, but I thought the show was over. So I left the show.” Diaz on if the fight will be different with a full camp: “I always train harder than anyone. So I’m coming to win. That’s what I’m here for.” Diaz on if he will take the fight to the ground: “I’m going in fighting. I’ve got the best standup in the game. And the best ground game. It’s a mixed martial arts fight. I’m going to fight.” Diaz on what’s next for him: “I’m too real for this whole game. They can’t have a guy like me win. Look at what’s happening. I get paid finally, and they sell the UFC. It’s changing because of what’s going on. That’s why they threw me back in there, they want to weed me out and try to get me out of here. It’s already an unstoppable force that’s going. The game is in trouble with someone like me winning. They hope I don’t win. It’s all good. Either way, it’s kill or be killed. Win or lose, I plan on winning and my voice will be heard. I got too big not to be heard.” VIDEO: Interview: Diaz is ready for his rematch with McGregor http://www.foxsports.com/video/UFC?vid=746236995677 Conor McGregor on what happened at the press conference: “I don’t know. I thought it was a case of dehydration. They were walking out, talking sh#t. I just defended myself. That’s it.” McGregor on what he thought of the last fight: “I think he has skills. There’s no question. I won all the grappling exchanges up until that left landed and my tank was empty. As long as my tank is there, I’m prepared. There’s no doubt that I’m coming out successful. My jiu-jitsu has been great. I have areas I need to work on and I’ve worked tirelessly on them.” VIDEO: Interview: McGregor is highly confident he will avenge his loss to Diaz http://www.foxsports.com/video/UFC?vid=746258499617 Anthony Johnson on if he sees any weaknesses in Glover Teixeira’s game: “Not really. He’s got pretty tight boxing and his wrestling is solid. I don’t see too many weaknesses.” Johnson on how he’s addressed his weaknesses: “I’ve been working hard. I’m working on my wrestling, grappling more and I’m always working on my cardio. I hold my breath with my punches in the fight and you know how that catches up with you. But I’m ready for anything.” Johnson on what’s next: “We worked our butts off to get a crack at Cormier again. We all work hard. We don’t have time to sit back and wait on anyone. It’s a short career.” VIDEO: Interview: Johnson doesn't see many weaknesses in Teixeira https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxnR9gyEBP0 Glover Teixeira on how he’ll fight Johnson’s power: “You just have to watch out. He’s a very dangerous fighter. The punch that hurts the most is the one that you don’t see. I just have to pressure him, like you did, Cormier.” Teixeira on if he’s intimidated by fighters: “I’m not intimidated by any fighter. We all respect each other. Me and Anthony talked backstage today. It doesn’t matter how nice you are, the day of the fight I’m going to try to take his head off, and he’s going to do the same thing.” VIDEO: Interview: Teixeira: “The key to beating Johnson is pressure.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YY0KwpFFU4k Donald Cerrone on what he thinks of Rick Story’s style: “Rick comes forward and has good body shots. He’s shorter than me and susceptible to body shots, knees and head kicks. He’ll try wrestling. His ground game is terrible and his striking elementary. I’m better everywhere and I’m going to go out there and showcase my skills.” Cerrone on what’s next: “I’m coming after Alvarez. Eddie, New York City, let’s make that happen.” VIDEO: Interview: Cerrone believes he's better than Story in every area https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_lj67zkvts For notes, coverage, bios, photography and more, visit the FOX UFC page on FOX Sports Press Pass.

  • 'Cowboy' Cerrone
    UFC® CAPS OFF EPIC YEAR WITH A LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE BOUT AS RAFAEL DOS ANJOS COLLIDES WITH DONALD ‘COWBOY’ CERRONE Las Vegas – It’ll be lights out in the Sunshine State when UFC® returns to Amway Center with a lightweight title bout as newly crowned champion Rafael Dos Anjos looks to defend his title for the first time when he meets No. 2 contender Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in a highly-anticipated rematch on Saturday, Dec. 19. In the co-main event, former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos clashes with former STRIKEFORCE® champion Alistair Overeem in a bout that could have major title implications in the wide open division. UFC FIGHT NIGHT®: DOS ANJOS vs. COWBOY 2 will be the second consecutive championship bout to air nationally on FOX and eighth overall. After putting on one of the best performances of his career against Anthony Pettis at UFC 185, Dos Anjos (24-7, fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) captured the 155-pound title, becoming the first Brazilian to hold the UFC lightweight championship. In addition to his impressive wins over former champion Benson Henderson and Nate Diaz, Dos Anjos also handed Cerrone his last loss back in 2013. The Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt will put his title on the line when he and his former foe meet again. Since dropping a decision loss to the champion, Cowboy (28-6, 1NC, fighting out of Albuquerque, N.M.) went on to dismantle the lightweight division by picking off top contenders in one of the most talent-rich divisions in the sport.

A Bad Boy chegou ao Brasil em 1992 através de Marco Antônio Merhej e Nair Afonso, um casal de surfistas que possuía uma marca de surf, a ST COMP. A Bad Boy se tornou referência nacional. Patrocinou atletas e eventos, formou campeões e apoiou as lutas até mesmo quando os olhos da população estavam voltados para outras modalidades de esporte. E, no momento em que os holofotes se voltam para os ringues e mostram ao mundo um pouco mais sobre as artes marciais, a Bad Boy mostra que sempre esteve presente nos tatames, nos ringues e na vida dos atletas. Nas páginas a seguir apresentamos um pouco do que fez a Bad Boy se tornar a “Imagem da Vitória, a Marca do Guerreiro”. 1982 O INÍCIO A Bad Boy surgiu no início dos anos 80, em San Diego, Califórnia como uma marca local de surf, skate e motorsports, patrocinando atletas com personalidade forte e de atitude como o Havaiano Johnny Boy Gomes. Dez anos depois da criação da Bad Boy, dois novos personagens entraram em cena: Marco Antônio Merhej e Nair Afonso. Para promover a ST Comp, loja de surf da qual eram donos, eles realizavam campeonatos de surf no Brasil e viajavam para todos os cantos do mundo para fazer pesquisas de mercado.

    IMPOLITENESS STRATEGIES IN UFC PRESS CONFERENCE THESIS BY: SOFIYAN HADI REG. NUMBER: A73216132 ENGLISH DEPARTMENT FACULTY OF ARTS AND HUMANITIES UIN SUNAN AMPEL SURABAYA 2020 ABSTRACT Hadi, Sofiyan. (2020). Impoliteness Strategies in UFC Press Conference. English Department, Faculty of Arts and Humanities. UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Advisor: Dr. A. Dzo'ul Milal, M.Pd. Keywords; Impoliteness, Politeness, Press Conference, Entertainment. __________________________________________________________________ This thesis aimed at examining the use of impoliteness in the UFC Press Conference. The phenomena of impoliteness can be found in any human interaction. It also can be found in any situation. One of them is entertainment. One of the entertainments show is UFC. This thesis examines the impoliteness strategies in UFC Press Conference. This study aims to analyze the use of impoliteness done by Conor McGregor and its responses done by Khabib Nurmagomedov. Furthermore, this thesis also analyzes entertainment factors that trigger the use of impoliteness done by McGregor. The press conference of UFC 229 between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov is selected as the data of this study. In this research, the researcher applies Culpeper's (2005) framework about impoliteness and its responses. Moreover, Culpeper’s theory about generic factors is applied. The researcher in this study applies a qualitative approach. In order to collect the data, the researcher transcribes press conference video into transcription text. The researcher underlines and gives codes to all sentences, words, and phrases that contain impoliteness and their responses. Since this study is in the entertainment area, the researcher interprets the data in order to examine the entertainment factors that trigger the use of McGregor's impoliteness.

  • UFC® BESTÄTIGT GLOVER TEIXEIRA GEGEN ILIR LATIFI FÜR DIE UFC FIGHT NIGHT® HAMBURG Ticketvorverkauf Läuft
    UFC® BESTÄTIGT GLOVER TEIXEIRA GEGEN ILIR LATIFI FÜR DIE UFC FIGHT NIGHT® HAMBURG Ticketvorverkauf läuft. London, UK, 4. Mai 2018 – UFC® bestätigte heute einen weiteren aufregenden Kampf und das vierte Duell im Halbschwergewicht im Rahmen der UFC FIGHT NIGHT®: VOLKAN vs. SHOGUN. Die Nummer 3 der Weltrangliste, der Brasilianer Glover Teixera, trifft auf die Nummer 4, Ilir Latifi aus Schweden. Latifi holt damit zum ersten Schlag Richtung Meisterschaftsgürtel aus – nach einem der größten Siege seiner Karriere gegen Ovince Saint Perux im Februar 2018. Dort gewann er durch Submission in der ersten Runde auch den Performance of the Night- Bonus. Auf seinem Weg steht nun ein echter Veteran, Glover Teixeira, der sich bereits mit den besten Kämpfern der Klasse messen durfte und vielbeachtete Siege gegen Misha Cirkunov, Rashad Evans und Ovince Saint Perux erkämpfen konnte. Ein Sieg in Hamburg würde beiden Athleten echte Titelchancen in einer topbesetzten Klasse einräumen. Diese Kampfpaarung ist bislang der insgesamt vierte Halbschwergewichtskampf des Abends, nach Jeremy Kimball, der den Newcomer Darko Stosic im Octagon begrüßen wird, Austrian Aleksandar Rakic und Justin Ledet sowie Volkan Oezdemir gegen Mauricio “Shogun” Rua im für fünf Runden angesetzten Hauptkampf. Tickets für die UFC FIGHT NIGHT®: VOLKAN vs. SHOGUN sind ab 45 Euro erhältlich über Eventim (eventim.de/ufc). Bleiben Sie mit den neuesten Nachrichten und Ankündigungen zur #UFCHamburg auf dem Laufenden, indem Sie @UFCEurope auf Twitter folgen. Für weitere Informationen oder aktuelle
