M-1 Challenge
31-05-2008, 12:17
Most people go to Gran Canaria for a sunny Hollyday , but not the M-1 Challenge teams.
Fighters from Spain, Finland, the USA and the Netherlands all gathered for the third edition of the already welknown M-1 Challenge.

The M-1 Challenge is an initiative of Vadim Finkelchtein and Fedor Emilianenko.
The idea behind it is that aspiring young MMA fighters get the chance to present themselves on an international level. For this first M-1 Challenge the participating teams are in:
Poule A : The Netherlands, Spain, Japan and the World Team (previously known as team Germany)
Poule B : Red Devil Russia, Russia Legion, Korea and France.
Up to now The Netherlands defeated The World Team with 5 – 0 in Poule A and France won by 3 – 2 from Red Devil Russia in Poule B in the first round that took place in Almere in Holland March 2008. One month later the second round was scheduled in former Russian Presidents Poetin’s hometown St. Petersburg.
I’ts good to know that Poetin and his longtime friend from Italy Silvio Berlusconi were invited by M-1’s initiator Vadim to attend a M-1 MMA show last year April, which they accepted.
In poule A Russian Legion faced The Japanese team which ended in a 3 -2 victory for the fighters of the Rising sun. And in poule B Finland demolished Korea with 4-1.
So at the start of this editon Holland was leading in Poule A and Finland in B.
Gegard Mousasi, Dutch team member has been replaced by Kamil Uygun due to his participation in de Dream GP.
The Spanish team with worldclass fighter Daniel Tabera as a member will fight the Dutch team in their first appearance in the Challenge.
In the other poule the Newcomer is the USA team. They face the tough task to defeat the strong Finnish team which is the other poule leader.
By tomorrownight the MMA world will know if Dutch and Finnish will still be the leaders in the M-1 Challenge.

jason jones tot 84 kg... ik denk dat hij meer kans maakt als hij een gewichtsklasse zwaarder vecht. Volgens mij boet hij te veel aan kracht in door af te vallen. Hij is bijvoorbeeld 6 kg lichter dan toen hij NL kampioen judo werd!

Floris

Damn, dat is idd niet ideaal.

Tabera is sowieso ook geen slechte vechter.

Kamil was 87 en Tabera 93 op de weging. en op de wedstrijddag zelf was ie 96 (hoe ze dat weten weet ik heb, heb ik gewoon gehoord)
ook al is die 96 niet waas is er nog 6 kilo verschil (kon tabera zeker niks aan doen), wat ik persoonlijk ook wel veel vind. toch respect voor Kamil dat hij toch vocht..

Ben net thuis en hoop zsm aan de foto's te gaan werken. Vannacht tot 02.00 in Sioux City geweest. Daarna naar het hotel spullen pakken en ff douchen en 04.15 naar het vliegveld. Om 07.10 de lucht in naar Madrid waar we een tussenstop van een paar uur hadden.

Het was een top gala en alle MMA liefhebbers hebben hier wat gemist. En zeker de liefhebbers van goed grondgevecht. Zeker gezien de vele submissions.

Er waren 10 MMA partijen voor de M-1 Challenge en 1 Spaanse superbout en alle partijen waren top! Finland liet wederom zien hoe sterk men is door na Korea nu ook de USA met 4-1 te verslaan. Nederland en Spanje zette de hele zaal (of liever gezegd de openlucht arena) op zijn kop en de Spanjaarden werden helemaal gek op de tribune.

Romano vocht tegen Juan Manuel Suarez en had hem bijna in een guillotine die hij net niet kan doorzetten. Later kwam Romano in een armklem waar hij met zijn beruchte Slamm's nog uit probeerde te komen. Helaas moest hij later afkloppen hierop.

Bogdan vocht tegen Carles Valeri. Al snel in de partij liep Bogdan een vervelende scheur in zijn wenkbrauw op. Even was er het gevaar dat men de partij wou stoppen. Terecht ging deze door en Bogdan sloeg met een harde linkse zijn tegenstander neer. Deze kwam half dizzy op de grond waar Bogdan hem in een guillotine nam en liet afkloppen.

Jason vocht tegen Jonathan Leon de kraker van de avond. Dit was echt een thriller die over en weer ging. En ook twee maal zelfs buiten de ring. Zowel als in als buiten de ring sloeg de vlam in de pan. Na twee ronden ging de overwinning naar de Spanjaard. IMO had er zeker een extra ronde mogen komen.

Kamil Uygun trof wellicht de beste MMA vechter van Spanje. Verleden week won Kamil nog op een mooie submission op Gentleman promotions en nu stond hij alweer hier in Gran Canaria. Hij vocht sterk terug maar Daniel Tabera was (nog) een maatje te groot deze avond. In de 2e ronde greep de zeer goed leidende scheids Marco Boerssen in toen Kamil te veel stoten kreeg bij een ground and pound.

Jesse klaarde zijn partij met Carmelo Molina snel. Na staande al sterker te zijn ging beide vechters na de grond waar Jesse koelbloedig met een mooie armklem de partij besliste.

De foto's komen zsm!!!!

M-1 CHALLENGE GRAN CANARIA

Most people go to Gran Canaria for a Hollyday to enjoy the sun, the sea, the beaches and the Spanish food, but not so the Mixed Martial Arts M-1 Challenge teams.
Participators from Spain, Finland, the USA and the Netherlands all gathered for the third edition of the already welknown M-1 Challenge.
The idea behind the M-1 Challenge, an initiative of Vadim Finkelchtein and Fedor Emilianenko, is that upcoming young talented MMA fighters get the chance to present themselves on an international level.
For this first M-1 Challenge the participating teams in poule A are: Holland, Spain, Japan, Russian Legion and the World Team (previously stated as team Germany).
Poule B : Red Devil Russia, USA, Korea, Finland and France.
Up to now in the first edition that took place in Almere in Holland March 2008 the Dutch demolished the World Team with 5 – 0 in Poule A and France won by 3 – 2 from Red Devil Russia in Poule B. One month later the second edition was scheduled in former Russian Presidents Poetin’s hometown St. Petersburg.
It is worth knowing that Poetin and his longtime friend from Italy Silvio Berlusconi could be seen sitting ringside at a St. Petersburg M-1 MMA show last year April, after accepting an invitation that was made to them by Vadim. At the same show action moviestar Jean Claude van Damme made his appearances near the ring.
In poule A Russian Legion faced The Japanese team which ended in a 3 -2 victory for the fighters of the rising sun and in poule B Finland convincingly defeated Korea with 4-1.
So at the start of this third editon Holland and Finland were leading the poules.
Due to his participation in the Dream GP Dutch team member Gegard Mousasi has been replaced by Kamil Uygun.
The Spanish team with worldclass fighter Daniel Tabera as one of the representatives will fight the Dutch team in their first appearance in the Challenge.
In the other poule the newcomer is the USA team. They face the tough task to defeat the strong Finnish team which is the other poule leader.

http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/609/m1challengeintrh8.jpg

The event took place in the open air and started with a demonstration Lucha Canaries,
The local fighting system which best can be compared with a mixture between sambo, sumo and judo.
The fighters wear shorts with rolled up seams that were strong enough to grab, pull, lift and throw. All of the demonstrators were type of a giant so well above 100 kg. So one can imagine that the ring was crowded when six of them entered.
After the demo the team meeting started. The referees were Daisuke Noguchi from Japan an Marco Broersen from Holland. Head of the jury was Ino Alberga, the IMA president.

Niko Puhakka 69.9 kg vs David Martinez 69.9 kg
Referee: Daisuke Noguchi
The fight took place mainly on the ground and Puhakka controled it all the time.
After 3.47 in the first round he made a Hammerlock which made Martinez tapout.

Janne Tulirinta 75.9 kg vs Roy Mc Donald 75.9 kg
Referee: Daisuke Noguchi
At the weigh in the previous day Mc Donald tipped the scale at 77 kg, which made him 1 kg overweight, so he had to get rid of that. The Spanish sun however made it quite easy to sweat it out.
After a very attractive fight that lasted 4.36 minutes Janne Tulirenta won with a triangle lock.

Lucio Linhares 83.8 kg vs Moises Gabin 83.9 kg
Referee: Marco Broersen
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt Linhares who entered his fight in Russia a few weeks before with an injury that prefented him from showing his skills ruled the fight this time. He controlled it straight from the beginning, most of the time in backmount with feet hooked in, in which position he tried to punch the American out, he did not succed in doing so, but after 4.39 minutes in the first round he decided to finish it with an armbar.

Superfight:

Daniel Estevez 86.4 kg vs Rayco Kakin 86.4 kg[b]
Referee : Daisuke Noguchi
Both are spanish, but Kakin is a native from Tenerife, a neighbouring island of Gran Canaria and Estevez is from Barcelona on the Spanish mainland, so it was not surprising that the home crowd was heavily in the favor of Kakin.
He was clearly the more confident fighter and proved it by finishing the fight after 1 minute 10 seconds in the firts round with what looked like an agressive ankle lock from our side of the ring.

SPAIN VS HOLLAND

This was the first time ever that there were offial MMA fights in Spain and that put a tremendous pressure to win on the Spanish team.

http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/3328/a01yw1.jpg


Carlos Valeri 69.8 kg vs Bogdan Christea 69.9 kg
Referee. Daisuke Noguchi
Valeri started the offence and was not only a strong grappler, but he proved to be a skilful boxer too because after 1.22 minute the docter had to check if Bogdan could continue because he had a nasty cut above his left eye. The fight could continue and Cristea who was hurt and damaged showed his class by choking Valeri out with a devastating guillotine choke after 1.59 in the first round.

Jonathan Leon 81.2 kg vs Jason Jones 83 kg
Referee: Daisuke Noguchi
The fight was very very close, but after 3 minutes and 20 second both fighters fell out the ring. Leon tried to hold on Jones and that prevent Jason from hurting himself badly.When the fight started again both were very agressive but it was Jones who was in the defense of an almost succesful armlock when the bell sounded at the end of the 1th round.
The second round was quite even with Jones a bit more on the upperhand and showing better endurance, but in the end the judges were unanimous in their decision that the near submission at the end of round one was the decesive factor to appoint Leon as the winner.

Carmelo Molina 109.3 kg vs Jesse Gibbs 120 kg
Referee: Marco Broersen
A very relaxed looking Gibbs started with a strong sidekick that almost lifted Molina and made him stagger backward. Molina wanted to bring the fight to the ground, but that was a serious mistake because that’s where Gibbs feels himself like a fish in the water.
After 3.30 in the first round Gibbs applied a reverse kimura (figure 4 armlock) which made Molina tap out.
Unfortunaly for the Dutch, his victory was not enough to win the team meeting.

Vet, dat westendecor erbij!

Maareh...warming-up in een kerk?

Het was in Sioux City, een nagebouwd stadje uit het wilde westen. Was dus improviseren omdat het geen sportcomplex was met kleedkamers. En de Nederlanders hadden het kerkje hiervan als kleedruimte. Was dus geen echte kerk maar nagebouwd.

Geen gevaar dus als hij hier wordt geplaatst Marco? Enkele andere heren wouden me al "Wild West Style" lynchen toen ik ze met deze dames fotograveerden om te voorkomen dat ze hier werden geplaatst.
