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).

Jornalista responsável: Anna Carolina Cortez Diagramação e tratamento: Fábio Vantini Direção de Arte - Big Blue Licenses - Monica Arruda e Carlos Ameni Impressão:Type Brasil INTRODUÇÃO Bad Boy, a primeira em lutas! 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.

He now looks to make it five wins in a row and finally earn his shot at UFC gold. Coming off the two biggest victories of his UFC career, Blachowicz (25-8, fighting out of Warsaw, Poland) intends to avenge his 2015 loss to Anderson in impressive fashion.

  • Teixeira: “I Feel Really Confident That I'm Going to Take the Belt Saturday Night.”
    FOX Sports 1 UFC TONIGHT Show Quotes – 4/23/14 TEIXEIRA: “I FEEL REALLY CONFIDENT THAT I’M GOING TO TAKE THE BELT SATURDAY NIGHT.” UFC 172 Predictions, Plus Jones, Teixeira, Davis Interviews on UFC TONIGHT LOS ANGELES, CA – On this week’s UFC TONIGHT, Kenny Florian and Chael Sonnen interview Jon Jones and Glover Teixeira prior to their UFC 172 title fight. Plus, they talk to Phil Davis, who also fights at UFC 172. Ariel Helwani adds reports. UFC TONIGHT Host Chael Sonnen on Teixeira: “I was there the last time Glover lost, in Portland against Ed Herman in 2005. From that moment forward, he’s turned the corner. This is a tremendous success story. He’s trained with former champion Chuck Liddell. But visa issues kept him out of the country for a while. Now he’s arrived and he’s this close to a championship.” UFC TONIGHT Host Kenny Florian on Teixeira: “He can go out there and beat you in myriad ways - can knock you out, take you down, submit you. We’ve seen what Alexander Gustafsson did to Jon Jones, and that must make Glover think he can do it, too.” Sonnen on Teixeira: “He mixes it up well. He’ll start punching you and get you to cover up and then run you over and take you down. Chuck Liddell says if Glover gets Jon down, Jon will not get back up.” Jon Jones on if he’s glad he’s fighting Teixeira instead of taking the rematch against Gustafsson: “I’m very happy with the choice.

"It'll be a fantastic fight between two of the most aggressive and talented welterweights in the world," said Kenny Florian, who calls the fights with UFC on FOX teammate Jon Anik. "Both are excellent finishers, excellent on the ground with phenomenal striking games. They're also similar in that they get a lot of knockouts using their knees." According to Florian, Condit has been putting in extra work on his ground game to prepare for Kampmann this time around. "Kampmann probably won their last match with his wrestling, as the takedowns were likely the difference,” Florian added. “Condit has been working on his wrestling a lot these last few months and because of that, I have Condit as the slight favorite heading into this one." The television week gets started Tuesday, Aug. 27 (7:00 PM ET) with the UFC WEIGH-IN SHOW on FOX Sports 2 from Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN.

ROMERO AND WHITTAKER ARE FIGHTING AND ONE OF THEM GETS A PARTICIPATION AWARD.” Bisping Picks Gustafsson to Beat Teixeira: “I see him staying on the outside, using the reach and range, and getting a decision win.” Los Angeles – On UFC TONIGHT, host Kenny Florian and guest host Michael Bisping preview the upcoming FS1 UFC FIGHT NIGHT: GUSTAFSSON VS. TEIXEIRA and also interview middleweight Gegard Mousasi. Plus, Karyn Bryant adds reports. UFC TONIGHT guest host Michael Bisping on the UFC announcing an interim middleweight title fight: “I was supposed to fight Georges St-Pierre for the title. Unfortunately, I do have a knee injury. I spoke to Dana White and he told me there will be an interim title between Robert Whittaker and Yoel Romero, but they’re not fighting for my title. Romero and Whittaker are fighting and one of them gets a participation award. Listen, I just had knee surgery and it hasn’t been too long. I defended my belt less than six months ago and it’s going to be a few more months until I can fight again. I think it’s premature, but the UFC has to do what they have to do and it’ll solidify the next number-one contender who I’ll fight. It’s an incredible fight. And good for me, one of them has to lose.” Bisping on White saying his fight with Georges St-Pierre is off: “I don’t know.

  • J O U R N a L Scoring Martial-Arts Workouts for Intensity
    JOURNAL ARTICLES Scoring Martial-Arts Workouts for Intensity Pitmaster John Hackleman offers ideas on how athletes and trainers can measure the quality and quantity of martial-arts fitness training. John Hackleman with Greg Amundson and Shain Howard Courtesy of John Hackleman One of the core tenets of CrossFit is intensity as measured by average power. This is a pretty easy concept to evaluate in most of the CrossFit movements. You have a fixed load moving a known distance. Multiply the number of reps and divide by time. Doing more work in less time is the fast lane to fitness. However, in the world of mixed martial arts (MMA), coaches face some daunting tasks when it comes to measuring athletes’ workouts. 1 of 6 Copyright © 2009 CrossFit, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Subscription info at http://journal.crossfit.com CrossFit is a registered trademark ® of CrossFit, Inc. Feedback to [email protected] Visit CrossFit.com MMA ... (continued) My purpose in writing this article is to introduce CrossFit athletes and coaches to some of the adaptations I’ve used with success at my CrossFit affiliate:The Pit martial arts and fitness. Take a simple Pit workout: 100 head kicks and 1,000 punches for time. That workout seems easy to score, right? The faster you hit the bag with 100 head kicks and 1,000 punches, the better your score. But, if Athlete A performs the task in five minutes and uses only 10 percent of his speed and power while Athlete B performs the task in 10 minutes and uses 90 percent of his speed and power, is Athlete A still getting better results? Coach Greg Glassman has addressed this very issue in the case of quantifying and qualifying workouts involving sledgehammer drills.
