  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 4, 2020 [email protected] PANCRASE 316, July 24, 2020 – Studio Coast, Tokyo Bout Hype A
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 4, 2020 PANCRASE 316, July 24, 2020 – Studio Coast, Tokyo Bout Hype After a five-month hiatus, the legendary promotion Pancrase sets off the summer fireworks with a stellar mixed martial card. Studio Coast plays host to 8 main card bouts, 3 preliminary match ups, and 12 bouts in the continuation of the 2020 Neo Blood Tournament heats on July 24th in the first event since February. Reigning Featherweight King of Pancrase Champion, Isao Kobayashi headlines the main event in a non-title bout against Akira Okada who drops down from Featherweight to meet him. The Never Quit gym ace and Bellator veteran, Kobayashi is a former Pancrase Lightweight Champion. The ripped and powerful Okada has a tough welcome to the Featherweight division, but possesses notoriously frightening physical power. “Isao” the reigning Featherweight King of Pancrase Champion, has been unstoppable in nearly three years. He claimed the interim title by way of disqualification due to a grounded knee at Pancrase 295, and following orbital surgery and recovery, he went on to capture the undisputed King of Pancrase belt from Nazareno Malagarie at Pancrase 305 in May 2019. Known to fans simply as “Akira”, he is widely feared as one of the hardest hitting Pancrase Lightweights, and steps away from his 5th ranked spot in the bracket to face Kobayashi. The 33-year-old has faced some of the best from around the world, and will thrive under the pressure of this bout. A change in weight class could be the test he needs right now. The co-main event sees Emiko Raika collide with Takayo Hashi in what promises to be a test of skills and experience, mixed with sheer will-to-win guts and determination.

  • 49-Year-Old Pro Boxer “Irish”
    49-year-old pro boxer “Irish” Chuck Shearns Hanging up gloves January 19th WORCESTER, Mass. (January 5, 2017) – Auburn (MA) junior middleweight “Irish” Chuck Shearns will become the second- oldest professional fighter in Massachusetts boxing history on Thursday night, January 19, in his farewell performance at the Worcester Palladium, marking the first pro boxing event in Worcester, located in Central Mass., in more than five years. The inaugural “New England’s Future” series event is being presented by Rivera Promotions Entertainment (RPE), which is owned and operated by one of Worcester’s all-time greatest boxers – 3-time, 2-division world champion Jose Antonio “El Gallo” Rivera – and his son, Anthonee “AJ” Rivera. Rising junior lightweight prospect, 2015 New England Golden Gloves champion Irvin Gonzalez (4-0, 4 KOs), will be fighting at home in the 6-round main event against Mexican invader Oscar Eduardo Quezada (2-1, 1 KO), while Springfield (MA) light heavyweight Reinaldo “Bazooka” Graceski (4-0, 2 KOs) meets Worcester’s Ralph Johnson (2-9, 1 KO) in the six-round co-feature. The 49-year-old Shearns (2-1, 1 KO), who is the general manager of Lundgren Honda in Auburn, will take on Shavonte Dixon (0-1), of Philadelphia, in a four-round bout. The state record, set in 2011 by then 53-year-old Joe Siciliano, is safe because Jan. 19th will definitely be Shearns’ last fight. “I have a tremendous amount of respect for all boxers in terms of what they go through to be able to perform at their best in the ring,” promoter Jose Antonio Rivera said.

M An outlaw practice : boxing, governance and western law Abstract This investigation examines the uses of Western law to regulate and at times outlaw the sport of boxing. Drawing on a primary sample of two hundred and one reported judicial decisions canvassing the breadth of recognised legal categories, and an allied range fight lore supporting, opposing or critically reviewing the sport's development since the beginning of the nineteenth century, discernible evolutionary trends in Western law, language and modern sport are identified. Emphasis is placed on prominent intersections between public and private legal rules, their enforcement, paternalism and various evolutionary developments in fight culture in recorded English, New Zealand, United States, Australian and Canadian sources. Fower, governance and regulation are explored alongside pertinent ethical, literary and medical debates spanning two hundred years of Western boxing history. & Acknowledgements and Declaration This has been a very solitary endeavour.

  • Land Below the Wind: Inserting Dominance
    Greetings from MIMMA! LAND BELOW THE WIND: INSERTING DOMINANCE Kota Kinabalu, 11th APRIL 2015 – The unprecedented adrenaline rush of mixed martial arts seamlessly merged with the spine-tingling and shocking intensity is what drives the Malaysian Invasion Mixed Martial Arts team to continue our journey back to East Malaysia in the hunt for more Borneo warriors. Talents are abundant in Sabah, the land below the wind, and they are ready to bring on the storm. Sabah’s MMA talents are impressive with the likes of MIMMA Season 1 Heavyweight Champion, Adrian Tham, MIMMA Season 1 Lightweight Champion, Allen Chong, the current Heavyweight Champion, Darren Low, Malaysian MMA princess, Ann Osman and AJ Pyro, Malaysian MMA Champion. Expectation is very high as the current MMA roster for the state is tremendously remarkable. These big names plus all the other MMA talents yet to be discovered in Sabah will surely the tryouts an unforgettable event. Jason Lo stated, “What better place to find MMA talents than in Sabah? The state has already proven that it can produce excellent fighters with the likes of Adrian Tham, Allen Chong, AJ Pyro, Ann Osman and the monstrous Darren Low. There are more talents yet to be discovered in Sabah and we will make sure those talented ones will show up for the tryouts.” He added, “Personally I do believe that the MIMMA3 Sabah tryouts will be huge solely based on the MMA alumni that the state currently has. Not forgeting all the MMA gyms that are available there which are equipped with trainers who are well known in this sport”.

    25 Pro Fighters, Managers, and Coaches Reveal Their Best Tips to Land a Sponsorship by Solmadrid Vazquez Follow me on Twitter here. Sponsorships can make or break you. The problem is, the process of landing a sponsorship is counter-intuitive. Being a great fighter is NOT enough. I’m sure you’ve seen fighters who land sponsors left and right. What’s their secret? How come they can get 27 sponsors in one day and you can’t even get one freakin’ rep to look at you? What THE hell is going on?! To get to this bottom of this conundrum, I contacted some of the best fighters, managers, and trainers in the game and asked them a simple question: “What is your #1 tip to land a sponsorship?” Each tip has a custom tweet link after it so feel free to share your favorite tips with your followers. Let’s Get Ready To Ruuuummmmbllllllleee!!! Frank Shamrock Frank Shamrock is a retired MMA Fighter. He was the first UFC Middleweight Champion and retired as the four-time defending undefeated champion. He was also the first WEC Light Heavyweight Champion, and the first Strikeforce Middleweight Champion. He was a brand spokesman for Strikeforce and is a Sports Commentator for Showtime. Frank can be found at his site, on Facebook, and on Twitter. My number one tip to landing a sponsorship is presenting yourself properly.

Paul Gift Abstract This paper investigates the effect of a change in cage size on fighter performance outcomes in Zuffa-owned mixed martial arts (MMA) promotions. Variation in cage size is observed through different events over time in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). Results suggest that smaller cages lead to more fight finishes (knockouts and submissions) and higher rates of distance knockdowns and choke attempts, all exciting outcomes for viewers. But they also lead to a higher proportion of time with fighters pressed against the cage, a position some viewers may dislike.

  • Analysis As Reported from Committee (4/29/2015)
    Legislative Analysis UNARMED COMBAT ACTIVITIES; Phone: (517) 373-8080 http://www.house.mi.gov/hfa REGULATE FOR AMATEURS Analysis available at House Bill 4220 (reported from committee as H-2) http://www.legislature.mi.gov House Bill 4286 (reported from committee as H-1) Sponsor: Rep. Harvey Santana Committee: Regulatory Reform Complete to 4-29-15 BRIEF SUMMARY: House Bills 4220 and 4286 each relate to the regulation of amateur mixed martial arts (MMA). House Bill 4220 would amend the Michigan Unarmed Combat Regulatory Act (MUCRA) by adding regulations relating to amateur mixed martial arts, while House Bill 4286 would amend the Code of Criminal Procedure to include a new Class E felony for knowingly allowing a professional to participate as a contestant in an amateur mixed martial arts contest. The bills are tie-barred, meaning that unless both are enacted, neither can go into effect. Each of the bills would take effect 90 days after its enactment into law. A more detailed summary follows below. FISCAL IMPACT: House Bill 4220 (H-2) would have a fiscal impact on the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) to the extent that it would require LARA to license and otherwise regulate amateur mixed martial arts (MMA) contestants, promoters, participants, and events. There is substantial uncertainty concerning the number of amateur MMA contestants and events that would require licensure and regulation under the bill given that the state has not previously regulated this activity, the inherent difficulty in comparing regulatory regimes among states, and the lack of a single statewide association representing amateur MMA.
