Des chiffres qui nous font rêver mais qui, aussi, nous interpellent et nous rappellent que nous appartenons à une prestigieuse institution dont nous avons à perpétuer l’héritage et les valeurs. Notre Alma Mater prône l’excellence, le dialogue, la formation intégrale de la personne et toutes ces valeurs se retrouvent au centre de l’activité quotidienne du Service du sport et des sélections sportives. Nos jeunes sportifs se dépassent et brillent sur les scènes locales et internationales, non seulement par leurs résultats mais aussi par leur comportement solidaire et exemplaire sur les terrains et en-dehors. Ils sont ainsi les meilleurs ambassadeurs de l’Université Saint-Joseph et du Liban. L’activité sportive n’est pas en reste à l’interne. De nombreuses compétitions et activités inter-USJ sont ainsi organisées et opposent tout le long de l’année, dans un climat de saine rivalité, les équipes des différents campus et du personnel. Le Centre sportif de l’Université Saint-Joseph soufflera bientôt sa première bougie ; outre les étudiants qui s’y rendent, de nombreux anciens de l’Université s’y sont inscrits : nous espérons que ce croisement des différentes générations de l’Université soit un catalyseur du renforcement tant souhaité des relations entre l’Université et ses anciens.

  • Fighters and Fathers: Managing Masculinity in Contemporary Boxing Cinema
    Fighters and Fathers: Managing Masculinity in Contemporary Boxing Cinema JOSH SOPIARZ In Antoine Fuqua’s film Southpaw (2015), just as Jake Gyllenhaal’s character Billy Hope attempts suicide by crashing his luxury sedan into a tree in the front yard, his ten-year-old daughter, Leila, sends him a text message asking: “Daddy. Where are you?” (00:46:04). Her answer comes seconds later when, upon hearing a crash, she finds her father in a heap concussed and bleeding badly on the white marble floor of their home’s entryway. Upon waking, Billy’s first and only concern is Leila. Hospital workers, in an effort to calm him, tell Billy that Leila is safe “with child services” (00:48:08-00:48:10) This news does not comfort Billy. Instead, upon learning that Leila is in the state’s custody, the former light heavyweight champion of the world, with face bloodied and muscles rippling, makes his most concerted effort to get up and leave—presumably, to find his daughter. Before he can rise, however, a doctor administers a large dose of sedative and the heretofore unrestrainable Billy fades into unconsciousness as the scene ends. Leila’s simple question—“Daddy. Where are you?”—is central not only to Southpaw but is also relevant for most major boxing films of the 21st century.1 This includes Clint Eastwood’s Million Dollar Baby (2004), David O. Russell’s The Fighter (2010), Ryan Coogler’s Creed (2015), Jonathan Jakubowic’s Hands of Stone (2016), and Stephen Caple, Jr.’s Creed II (2018). These films establish fighter/trainer relationships as alternatives to otherwise biological or “traditional” father/son relationships.

  • Gary Russell, Patrick Hyland, Jose Pedraza, Stephen Smith
    APRIL 16 TRAINING CAMP NOTES: GARY RUSSELL, PATRICK HYLAND, JOSE PEDRAZA, STEPHEN SMITH NEW YORK (April 7, 2016) – The boxers who will be fighting Saturday, April 16 on a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® world title doubleheader are deep into their respective training camps as they continue preparation for their bouts at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT. In the main event, live on SHOWTIME® (11 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT), the talented and speedy southpaw Gary Russell Jr. (26-1, 15 KOs) makes the first defense of his WBC Featherweight World Title against Irish contender Patrick Hyland (31-1, 15 KOs). In the SHOWTIME co-feature, unbeaten sniper Jose Pedraza (21-0, 12 KOs) risks his IBF 130-pound world title as he defends his title for the second time against a mandatory challenger, Stephen Smith (23-1, 13 KOs). Russell, who won the 126-pound title with a fourth-round knockout over defending champion Jhonny Gonzalez on March 28, 2015, trains in Washington, D.C. Hyland, whose only loss suffered was to WBA Super Featherweight World Champion Javier Fortuna, has been training at a gym in Dublin, Ireland, owned and operated by his trainer, Paschal Collins, whose older brother Steve was a former two-time WBO world champion. Paschal Collins also boxed as a pro but is best known for being Irish heavyweight Kevin McBride’s head trainer during his shocking knockout of Mike Tyson. The switch-hitting Pedraza, a 2012 Puerto Rican Olympian, has been working out in his native Puerto Rico. Smith, of Liverpool, England, has been training in the UK.

  • The Southpaw Advantage? - Lateral Preference in Mixed Martial Arts
    The Southpaw Advantage? - Lateral Preference in Mixed Martial Arts Joseph Baker1*,Jo¨ rg Schorer2 1 School of Kinesiology and Health Science, York University, Toronto, Canada, 2 Institute of Sport Science, University of Oldenburg, Oldenburg, Germany Abstract Performers with a left-orientation have a greater likelihood of obtaining elite levels of performance in many interactive sports. This study examined whether combat stance orientation was related to skill and success in Mixed Martial Arts fighters. Data were extracted for 1468 mixed martial artists from a reliable and valid online data source. Measures included fighting stance, win percentage and an ordinal measure of skill based on number of fights. The overall analysis revealed that the fraction of fighters using a southpaw stance was greater than the fraction of left-handers in the general population, but the relationship between stance and hand-preference is not well-understood. Furthermore, t-tests found no statistically significant relationship between laterality and winning percentage, although there was a significant difference between stances for number of fights. Southpaw fighters had a greater number of fights than those using an orthodox stance. These results contribute to an expanding database on the influence of laterality on sport performance and a relatively limited database on variables associated with success in mixed martial arts.
