  • Iran Nuclear Agreement
    Iran Nuclear Agreement (name redacted) Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs (name redacted) Analyst in Nonproliferation October 4, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R43333 Iran Nuclear Agreement Summary On July 14, 2015, Iran and the six powers that negotiated with Iran about its nuclear program since 2006 (the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China, and Germany— collectively known as the P5+1) finalized a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The JCPOA is intended to ensure that Iran’s nuclear program can be used for purely peaceful purposes, in exchange for a broad lifting of U.S., European Union (EU), and United Nations (U.N.) sanctions on Iran. The JCPOA largely reflects what was agreed in an April 2, 2015, framework for the accord. The agreement replaces a Joint Plan of Action (JPA) interim nuclear accord in operation since January 2014. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and U.S. officials have indicated Iran is abiding by its commitments to the JCPOA. A resolution of disapproval of the JCPOA was not enacted by Congress by the deadline of September 17, 2015, set by the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act (P.L. 114-17). Iran’s legislature approved the agreement and the JCPOA formally took effect on “Adoption Day” (October 18, 2015), the date stipulated by the JCPOA as 90 days after passage of Resolution 2231 on July 20, 2015. On Adoption Day, the Administration issued provisional waivers for U.S. sanctions laws. Those waivers took effect—along with the revocation of some sanctions imposed by executive order—when the IAEA certified that Iran had complied with the initial set of nuclear-related requirements, and “Implementation Day” was declared by the P5+1 on January 16, 2016.

  • Fighters Five a Roadmap for Developing Relentless, Explosive Fighters Foundation of Developing Physical Fighters
    FIGHTERS FIVE A ROADMAP FOR DEVELOPING RELENTLESS, EXPLOSIVE FIGHTERS FOUNDATION OF DEVELOPING PHYSICAL FIGHTERS POWER STRENGTH ENDURANCE HEALTH YOU’RE A COMBAT ATHLETE hether you’re a fighter or grappler, you chose to Wcompete in one of the toughest sports that exist. Champions in these sports are built over time, with consistency, hard work, planning, attention to detail, monitoring and adjusting along the way. There is no quick fix, shortcut, easy way to the top At the highest levels everybody is talented and tough. The difference between them and the thousands of others gunning for the Number One Spot? Winners take consistent, massive action towards improving themselves every week. Top athletes must organize their whole life around improving their mindset, skill, strength, conditioning, recovery, nutrition and more. And most importantly: winners have an absolute, crystal-clear vision of Who They Are and Where They Are Going. They are constantly analyzing and assessing throughout camp and then making adjustments to address their specific situation. SIMPLY GRINDING & WORKING HARD IS NOT ENOUGH TELL ME IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU: • You consume so much information, you are confused about what to do. • You find yourself subscribing to old-school, outdated training methods. • Your workouts are more about building mental toughness (“building character”) than improving athleticism. • Whether you train alone or with a team of coaches, you lack a coordinated plan of action. • You try to mimic or train like your favorite athletes. • You don’t test or monitor any aspect of your training, your body, or your health. • You have bowed to the altar of high intensity training, no days off and are grinding yourself into a deep hole.

  • Rethinking the Use of Antitrust Law in Combat Sports
    Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport, 2018, 28, 63-96 https://doi.org/10.18060/22331 Rethinking the Use of Antitrust Law in Combat Sports Jason J. Cruz* Introduction This article will examine the application of antitrust laws in combat sports. Specifically, it will look at three recent cases involving lawsuits brought under the Sherman Act Section 1 and 2.1 First, this article will examine the January 2017 dismissal by a Los Angeles federal court of a lawsuit filed by Golden Boy Promotions (“Golden Boy”) against Al Haymon and his business entities, which started Premier Boxing Champions (“PBC”).2 It will also examine Top Rank Boxing’s (“Top Rank”) similar lawsuit against Haymon, which was settled the previous fall. Finally, it will evaluate the ongoing lawsuit between several former fighters and the Ultimate Fighting Championships (“UFC”). While each lawsuit has its own set of facts, the conditions and marketplace for combat sports is unique and the application of antitrust law has been used sparingly by boxers and promoters. These three cases filed in the last three years reflect the changing market for boxing and MMA. The paper will look at the results of the Top Rank and Golden Boy lawsuits and determine whether those cases shed any light on the outcome of the UFC case. It will also explore whether there are alternatives to regulating combat sports outside of the use of the antitrust laws. One legal commentator has opined that a federal commission would aid the monopolistic structure of a sports league. But, does that apply to individual sports like MMA or boxing? This paper will explore this issue as well as determine whether organizing fighters would address the issues complained of in the lawsuits.
