Sylvia-Mercer Goes MMA
Blijkbaar hebben ze het veranderd van boksen naar mma, ik ben er vrij zeker van dat het niet langer als 1 ronde gaat duren.
Het is eigenlijk onverantwoord om een 48 jarige ex boxer tegen een voormalige UFC kampioen te laten vechten....

Niet alleen onverantwoord, ook erg zielig...
Maar het verhaal waarom, te bizar:
Originally scheduled as a six-round boxing bout, Adrenaline owner and promoter Monte Cox said he made the decision to re-categorize the match on Thursday.
“I got a call from the Pennsylvania commissioner saying that the boxing match is illegal because we weren’t getting regulated by a U.S. commission,” said Cox on Thursday.
With no regulatory body present in Alabama, the Canadian-based River Cree Combative Sports Commission had agreed to step in and oversee the event.
Cox said he believed he had completed all the necessary requirements asked of him, which included procuring a letter from Alabama’s governor welcoming the Canadian commission into the jurisdiction.
However, Association of Boxing Commissions President Tim Lueckenhoff told Sherdog.com that neither he nor the ABC organization had been approached directly to regulate the bout. Further, Lueckenhoff said he’d thought Sylvia-Mercer would be an MMA contest and not a boxing bout. Lueckenhoff said federal law currently has no jurisdiction over MMA bouts, but laws are in place over boxing under the Professional Boxing Safety Act.
In a press release issued by the ABC on Thursday, the organization denounced the “unwarranted and illegal” boxing match. The release also noted that the River Cree commission, as well as referee John McCarthy, had withdrawn their involvement from the bout and event.
“Canadian boxing commissions are not authorized to supervise boxing matches in the U.S.; and, patently, it is wholly inappropriate for one representative from a Canadian boxing commission, together with an MMA referee, to supervise a boxing match,” said Bruce C. Spizler, chairman of the ABC legal committee in the release.
“I told the promoter I would do it if it was a sanctioned event,” McCarthy told Sherdog.com Thursday. “As soon as it became apparent that that would not happen, I pulled out.”
In March, it had been reported that the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board (NJSACB) said it would not regulate the bout, prompting Cox to move the bout to another venue.
“Everyone thinks I came to Alabama because it’s unsanctioned here,” said Cox, “but why would I go to so much trouble to try and get this event regulated if that were the case?”
Cox also said the Mashantucket Pequot Athletic Commission, which oversees events at the Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut, had agreed to regulate the event in March, but a financial agreement could not be reached with the casino.
The event was moved to Alabama for sponsorship opportunities, Cox said. Cox said he would not be able to procure new regulation for the event in time.

ze hebben geen boks licentie gekregen, dus doen ze het nu gewoon onder de MMA vlag, ik weet wel zeker dat ze het achter de schermen hebben afgesproken om het gevecht staande te houden met misschien zo nu en dan een trap.
Het enige wat veranderd denk ik is dat ipv bokshandschoenen het ny MMA handschoenen worden......"I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”

Met gebruik van "freakshow" doe je de voormalig Wereld en Olympisch kampioen toch wel tekort vind ik. Originally Posted by Guillermo

wondere zijn de wereld nog niet uit. maar zou hem helemaal koning vinden als hij op lowkicks wint. dat zou meer een verrrassing zijn vind ik. Originally Posted by Paganstars

WTF!
SYLVIA OVER 300 POUNDS FOR BOUT WITH MERCER
After months of sorting everything out, Adrenaline MMA III is set to take place on Saturday night in Birmingham, Ala.
After New Jersey, the original location of Adrenaline MMA III, refused to sanction the main event boxing match between former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia and former boxing world champion Ray Mercer, the show's promoter, Monte Cox, moved the event to Alabama. After more issues with sanctioning earlier this week, the bout was changed to a mixed martial arts contest instead.
The fighters weighed in for the event on Friday with Sylvia tipping the scales at 310.6 pounds, much heavier than he's been used to fighting at recently. His opponent, Mercer, weighed in a full 54 pounds lighter at 256.6.
Highlighting the undercard are bouts featuring UFC veterans Jeremy Horn, Rich Clementi, and Roberto Traven.
