Ufc® Brings First Live Event to Maine on Saturday, August 16 UFC® BRINGS FIRST LIVE EVENT TO MAINE ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 16 Las Vegas –The Ultimate Fighting Championship® announced that Bangor, Maine, childhood home of UFC® president Dana White, will host the state’s first ever UFC event at Cross Insurance Center on Saturday, August 16. UFC® Fight Night will showcase local talent, in addition to some of the sport’s top contenders. The five-round main event will be announced in the coming days. “I’m so excited to finally bring the UFC to Maine,” UFC president Dana White said. “People in Maine have been asking me to bring the UFC there for a long time, so we’re bringing a great card to Bangor on August 16! I love Maine, I have a home and family there, and I’m really looking forward to this event!” UFC Fight Night is a treat for locals, as Lincolnville native and 13th-ranked middleweight Tim Boetsch (17-7, fighting out of Sunbury, Pa.) comes home to face No. 14 contender Brad Tavares (12-3, fighting out of Las Vegas, Nev. by way of Kailua, Hawaii). Boasting an impressive resume that dates back nearly a decade, Boetsch holds wins over C.B. Dollaway, Hector Lombard, and Yushin Okami. This August, “The Barbarian” takes on one of the division’s rising stars in Tavares. After making his debut on The Ultimate Fighter® Season 11, Tavares quickly racked up seven UFC wins, including a five-fight unbeaten stretch, and he will return to the Octagon on Boetsch’s home turf with the intent to spoil his opponent’s homecoming. Plus, fans will witness a heavyweight showdown between two former collegiate athletes as Shawn Jordan (15-6, fighting out of Baton Rouge, La.) takes on Jack May (7-1, fighting out of Fullerton, Calif.). Jordan, a former star fullback at LSU and member of the 2007 National championship team, has used his superior athleticism and power to successfully transition into the world of mixed martial arts. With 11 knockout victories to his name, “The Savage” is primed and ready for a run at UFC gold. Standing in his way, is the 6-foot-8 kickboxing specialist and former college basketball standout May. With six of his seven victories by way of first-round knockout, May will be no easy feat for Jordan. The Savage takes on “The Outlaw,” with the victor a step closer to becoming one of the division’s elite. In addition, Tom Watson (16-7, fighting out of Southampton, England) takes on UFC newcomer Sam Alvey (24-5, 1NC) in a middleweight matchup. Don’t miss this chance to watch the best fighters in the world compete at the UFC’s first ever event in Maine. More fights to be announced in the coming weeks.

  • Brooks, UFC, Mars Giving Las Vegas Big Back-To- Back Weekends by Richard N
    Brooks, UFC, Mars giving Las Vegas big back-to- back weekends By Richard N. Velotta Las Vegas Review-Journal July 8, 2021 - 11:14 pm Normally, there’s a tourism lull the week after a three-day weekend. But as everyone knows, 2021 is far from normal, and the weekend after the three-day Fourth of July holiday has the makings of a blockbuster for Las Vegas. Credit a supercluster of blockbuster entertainment coming up in the city this weekend. The UFC 264 event at T-Mobile Arena, featuring Conor McGregor-Dustin Poirier. Garth Brooks at Allegiant Stadium. Bruno Mars at Park MGM. On top of that, former President Donald Trump is planning to attend the big fight, UFC President Dana White confirmed Thursday. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority doesn’t have any historical data to calculate an estimate of how many people will venture to Las Vegas this weekend, but most observers think more than 300,000 people were in the city over the Fourth of July three-day holiday. Will 300,000 more be here this weekend? Testing transportation If nothing else, the existing transportation grid will be put to the test with three major events — the Garth Brooks concert, the UFC fights and Bruno Mars — occurring at venues within a half-mile of each other at right around the same time that night. But health officials have expressed concern that big crowds have the potential to create superspreader events. Nevada on Thursday reported 697 new coronavirus cases and two deaths as the state’s test positivity rate continued to climb.

  • 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.

It focuses primarily on the political campaign to ban the sport in the 1990s and the repercussions that campaign had on MMA itself. Furthermore, it examines the censorship of music and video games in the 1990s. The central argument of this work is that the political campaign to ban Mixed Martial Arts was part of a larger political movement to censor violent entertainment.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, June 13, 2016 - - - PROGRAMMING ALERT - - - FS1 AND FOX DEPORTES SET BROADCASTERS FOR SATURDAY’S UFC FIGHT NIGHT: MACDONALD VS. THOMPSON Evans and Stann Serve as FS1 Analysts, While Werdum Joins on FOX Deportes LOS ANGELES – Former light heavyweight champion and current No. 8 contender Rashad Evans (@SugaRashadEvans) and former middleweight Brian Stann (@BrianStann) serve as analysts in the FS1 studio for UFC FIGHT NIGHT: MACDONALD VS. THOMPSON live on FS1 on Saturday, June 18 (10:30 PM ET). FS1 UFC FIGHT NIGHT: MACDONALD VS. THOMPSON features a pivotal welterweight contender fight between No. 1-ranked Rory MacDonald (18-3) and No. 2-ranked Stephen Thompson (12-1). A perennial contender in the 170-pound division, MacDonald has won eight of his last 10 outings. At UFC 189 in July, he came up short in 2015’s Fight of the Year against welterweight champion Robbie Lawler. Thompson is one of the most dynamic strikers in mixed martial arts and is currently riding a six-fight win streak, earning stunning knockout victories over Jake Ellenberger, Robert Whittaker and Chris Clements. In his last bout, he was the first fighter to ever finish former champion Johny Hendricks with strikes in the first round. FOX UFC analyst Tyron Woodley, who challenges Lawler for the title at UFC 201, has his eye on the main event featuring two fighters with opposing styles: “This is a classic matchup of a space invader in Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, who blitzes in quickly and gets in and out, and a space gauger in Rory MacDonald.
