Unbeaten welterweight prospect annihilates hapless foe.

Atlantic City, NJ – It took talented Henry Crawford just thirty five seconds to dispose of lightly regarded Fort Smith, Arkansas native Josh Hammock, on the non-televised portion of the Arturo Gatti-Alfonso Gomez undercard Saturday night at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.

What the HBO television audience missed was an explosive “statement performance” from the highly regarded welterweight prospect, now 16-0-1, as Hammock (8-3, 6 KO’s) quickly became the Paterson born and bred fighter’s eighth knockout victim.

Crawford’s lone punch, a monster of a right hand, sent Hammock reeling to the canvas, where he made no attempt to get up before referee Earl Brown’s count of ten.

Under the watchful eye of respected trainer Nettles Nasser, the twenty-six year old former three-time NJ Golden Gloves champion has steadfastly improved with each outing and is ready to take his career to the next level.
“I’m in great shape and I’m ready for anyone”, stated the likeable Crawford. “I wanted to prove a point and I did!”

While credit can be given to Hammock for his gameness, his winning record is rather deceptive. Fighting out of the Stacy Goodson stable, Hammock’s eight victories have come against winless foes, with a combined record of 0-7 (five opponents were making their pro debuts). Which has nothing to do with Henry Crawford, who did what he had to do against Hammock – and in a monstrously impressive fashion!

THE GAMING BEHIND THE GRAPPLING: THE UFC, MMA, AND VIDEO GAMES

MMA, THE UFC, & VIDEO GAMES

by: Jack Bratcher

 

[mpinpage]

Today’s demographic for video games is not what it once was. What was once reserved for basically grade-schoolers, now caters to and is supported by a large population of 20 and 30-somethings. This is the same age group that tunes into The Ultimate Fighter and orders UFC Pay-Per-Views. I’m a fan of both: next-generation video-games and MMA. When I speak of next-generation gaming, I’m talking about Microsoft’s XBOX 360, the Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii. It’s a great time to be alive for fans of gaming and MMA. We are getting things from them both that never could have happened ten years ago.

One of coolest perks of those who own an XBOX 360 is not only the incredible gaming, but the large amount of media and entertainment you have access to through XBOX Live, which is the XBOX 360’s internet portal. For UFC fans such as myself, there is much to be happy about if you are connected to XBOX Live. What am I referring to? The first ever place you can order, download, and watch UFC fights in High-Definition (480p and 720p). If you’ve never seen a UFC fight in High-Definition, I highly reccommend it! You can see pimples on the fighters’ backs! You can see how pink Matt Hughes’s skin really is! For just a few dollars each, XBOX Live has about forty-something UFC fights you can download. Many of them I”ve never seen on Fight Night or anywhere else. I recently watched the Matt Serra vs. Karo Parisiyan fight and the Tito Ortiz vs. Randy Couture fight.

There have been a few MMA video games to be released in the past. True fans of the sport could find fun in them, and they were pretty good for the hardware they had to work with. The UFC had a few games that were ok. They weren’t great but they were ok. The Pride FC game is supposed to be good but it’s pretty hard to find. But with the new next-generation systems such as the XBOX 360 and the Playstation 3, I think we’re about to be blessed with something really special. All I really know is that THQ, the same company that has brought us such games as SAINTS ROW and WWE SMACKDOWN vs. RAW, has a development deal with the UFC and they are making this next UFC video game. If the recent video that was shown of the game at the E3 Convention in Santa Monica is any indication, we are about to be amazed. They haven’t announced a release date yet but I hope it’s sooner rather than later. Rampage was at the E3 Convention promoting the new game. Check out this trailer:

 

 

It looks amazing! I can’t wait! If you have an XBOX 360, you should check out the UFC videos in the Marketplace. And if you don’t have one….well, you should because not only do you have access to some great High-Definition fight videos but there’s a new UFC game approaching. Also if you’re on XBOX Live send me a message so we can do some gaming together. Until next time……adios

THE MMA PROFESSOR EXPLAINS THE SUPERIORITY OF THE SPORT

BOXING VS. MMA

BY: CHARLIE WARD, CMIT – THE MMA PROFESSOR © 2007

 

 

[mpinpage]

 

When I was first asked to take part in the debate of Boxing vs. MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), I of course felt honored to be a part of a discussion of this nature. However, I was a little confused, because to my understanding boxing is, in fact, one of the main components of MMA. It doesn’t make sense to me to compare the effectiveness of a component of a larger system, to the effectiveness of the larger system itself. Now I understand that there may be different schools of thought regarding this point-of-view. There are many MMA schools out there, and all of them have their own somewhat unique perspective on what they consider to be effective training methods, and each one of them will have an area of expertise (hopefully) that is passed on to their students more than the other components of MMA as a whole. For example: an instructor who is better at Jiu-Jitsu, (or the ground-game in general), might train his or her students harder in the ground-game than in the stand-up game—and the reverse is also true. However, there is no arguing that by the very nature of the sport, MMA fighters need to know how to fight well on their feet, as well as on the ground.

From a strategic standpoint, the argument doesn’t really make sense to me either. From my own experience, I know that it can be very difficult to stop a good boxer. However, we’ve all seen the result of what happens once the boxer is taken to the ground and tied into a pretzel. The same can be said about the standing clinch and in-fighting positions. Once a standing clinch occurs, boxers are not trained to throw knees, elbows, and to throw their opponent to the ground. What I just described are some of the staples of Muay Thai—and those are lessons that every MMA fighter are familiar with. The bottom line is this: A fighter will only do what they are trained to do—period! So, once again, we have a component, versus a more complete system.

Gone are the days when a mixed martial arts competition consisted of fighters from different art forms trying to prove that their one way of fighting was the best way. The sport of MMA has evolved, and will continue to evolve, to the point where fighters have to be well-rounded enough to know how to fight at different distances—and to use many techniques and maneuvers other than strikes. Striking, kicking, grappling, submissions, throws, elbows, knees, takedowns, and so on, are all integral parts of the modern MMA fighter’s arsenal. If the fighter is weak in one of these areas, it will be exploited. Now if a well-rounded MMA fighter gets stupid, and simply tries to stand toe-to-toe with an excellent boxer, he will almost certainly lose the fight if his boxing skills aren’t up to par. A loss of that nature is due to the fighter not fighting smart—it is not a matter of which combat sport is better. Also, the statement that boxers often make, referring to themselves as “Pound for pound the best fighter in the world” is simply not true. Maybe they’re the best boxer in their weight class—currently, but not the best fighter. If anyone can make such a claim, it’s the MMA fighter.

Now, I want it made clear where I’m coming from with my own training. My primary art forms are boxing and Muay Thai. I’m also well-versed in ground-fighting, and am very comfortable on the ground, but I am a striker at heart. If I am able to finish the fight standing up, then that’s what I like to do. In my own fighting career, I was able to keep most of my fights on their feet, and as a result I had an outstanding knockout record. That being said, there were also plenty of times when the fight went to the ground. If I hadn’t known what to do in a ground encounter, I would have been finished right there. Plain and simple, MMA fighters have to know and understand how to fight in all situations—while boxers do not.

Another facet of this argument, Boxing vs. MMA, could be the safety factor. Which combat sport is ultimately safer for the fighters? While MMA has come under heavy fire from various sources, referring to the sport as human cock fighting, unleashed brutality, and other such degrading (and false) statements—here are some facts to consider:
? A fighter can actually hit harder with boxing gloves on their hands than they can by wearing MMA gloves. This is simply due to the overall weight of the glove. Boxing gloves can add up to an extra pound onto your fist. That makes for a greater force upon impact than the lighter MMA gloves. The actual padding across the knuckle area of both sets of gloves offers the same basic amount of protection to the fighter. More force generated upon impact means greater damage sustained to the receiving target.
? Boxing consists of trying to knock your opponent unconscious, and that’s about it. Winning by virtue of a knockout is the preferred method of victory. Short of that, winning by stoppage by the referee or a judge’s decision are the only other alternatives.
? On the other hand, an MMA match can be won be submission. Once the fight goes into close enough range to render strikes and kicks ineffective, the combatants grapple for superior position and can put their opponent in a submission hold. This allows the other fighter to “tap out”, or surrender before serious damage (or injury) can be inflicted.
? There are more cases of head injuries due to blunt trauma and concussion in the sport of boxing, than there are in MMA, by a long shot!

What about the conditioning factor: When it comes to the overall conditioning of the combat athlete, MMA again ends up on top. The conditioning of combat athletes is second to none. However, the demands of the different sports also call for varying degrees of strength and conditioning. In boxing, it is easier to pace yourself. It is common to see two fighters in stand-up mode circling each other, feeling each other out, and so on. Also, in boxing, when the fighters come into the clinch it is almost a rest position until the referee breaks them up. In Muay Thai, the pace is more demanding due to the fact that it is more physically taxing to throw knees and kicks than it is to just throw punches and strikes. Also, in Muay Thai, the standing clinch is anything but restful. In fact, that’s when the fight gets taken up a notch. In-fighting, elbows, knees, and throws are all normal for the standing clinch position in Muay Thai. The greater demands of Thai Boxing call for more conditioning in practice. Likewise, in MMA, the physical demands are even greater. There is nothing more exhausting than grappling with an opponent. There is no pace in grappling, unless you count full-throttle as a pace. The combatants have to work as hard as they can, for as long as it takes to get superior position and/or a submission. While the focus in stand-up fighters regarding conditioning has traditionally been more on endurance, and grapplers traditionally focus more on strength—the MMA fighter has to have equal parts of both strength and endurance in their conditioning program. Not only do MMA athletes have to have more well-rounded fighting skills, but their approach to conditioning is also more complete. Strength, endurance, speed, explosive power, quickness and agility, and complex coordination all have to be developed to a greater degree in MMA. The bottom line is this, the training of an MMA athlete is more complete, on every level, then that of a boxer.

So, if it’s not really a matter of this versus that, then what’s really the issue here? In a matter of fighter vs. fighter, or sport vs. sport, the facts are pretty clear. MMA is a purer form of combat sport, in that it doesn’t have nearly as many limitations. So what’s causing all the friction in the boxing world? Is it a matter of popularity, money, or politics? Probably all three are tied together with a big bow. The sport of MMA is called the fastest growing sport in the world for a good reason—it’s true. MMA has a fan base that has eclipsed boxing, and the boxing world is upset about that. They’re losing fans, sponsors, and money—and that’s the bottom line.

Will boxing go away and cease to exist? No, of course not. Boxing is one of the oldest forms of unarmed combat, and is one of the necessary staple components of mixed martial arts training. Really, can you imagine what a fight would look like if nobody knew how to box? It would be ridiculous! However, it has become less popular in the combat sports world for the simple reason that people are now witnessing competitions where the combatants can use much more of an arsenal and aren’t bound by as many rules and limitations, and this makes for a more exciting sport for both the fighters and spectators alike.

Quotes

John Duddy:

“I’m hoping people are going to see a lot of power and speed and my fights usually have plenty of blood, sweat and tears as well but hopefully not my blood or my tears. I think outside the ring the atmosphere will be pretty hot and I’m sure the crowd will enjoy it but it will be pretty hot inside the ring as well and I’m looking forward to a great victory.”
“I don’t make forecasts, that’s for weather men. I never plan to go in for an early finish but if the opportunity pops up I’ll take it because if I hurt you I can take you out.”
“The reaction I’ve had since coming home is more than I could ever have dreamed of. I’m getting noticed in places that I’d never even have dreamed of and that just makes me want to work even harder to make a name for myself back here.“

Alessio Furlan:

“I have not come to Ireland as a tourist. I’m here on business and I will give my all tomorrow night. I am known as “The Warrior” and you will see why that is tomorrow night.”

“People may not think I am a puncher but I have seen some weaknesses in Duddy and if I hit him on the button he will go.”

“Fighting in front of his home crowd doesn’t bother me. In fact I enjoy it. I fought in front of 20,000 in Germany when I fought Sebastian Sylvester who is now the European Champion and I loved the atmosphere.”

GATTI ON THE COMEBACK TRAIL AND MARGARITO TO BE TESTED SATURDAY ON HBO

Posted on | July 13, 2007 | No Comments

SATURDAY NIGHT FIGHTS PREVIEW BY:

PATRICK MCELLIGOTT

HBO is featuring a welterweight triple-header on Saturday, July 14. Two of the fights are important, and will help determine the future of one of the most exciting divisions in boxing. More, these two fights are – at least on
paper – of a much higher quality than two PPV cards also scheduled for Saturday.

The PPV cards feature John Duddy (20-0, with 15 KOs) versus Alessio Furlan (19-8-5, with 8 KOs), and Roy Jones, Jr. (50-4, with 38 KOs) versus Anthony Hanshaw (21-0-1, with 14 KOs). Duddy’s return to Ireland presents some excitement for his home-town fans, but until he takes a step up in competition, his fights may be hard to sell to the American audience on any day other than March 17.

Roy Jones was an amazing talent in his prime, but is no longer adding to his legend. It is assumed that Hanshaw was picked because he poses little threat to Roy, but at some point, the sad truth is that even a young lion like Anthony will flatten the shell of a once-great boxer.

The HBO card does feature one Jones-like match: Arturo Gatti fights Alfonso Gomez. As with the boxers in the two PPV cards, neither of these men are ranked in the top 10 by The Ring. However, Gatti remains of value to promoters looking to sell tickets.

The HBO card opens with Kermit Cintron (27-1, with 25 KOs) fighting Walter Matthysse (26-1, with 25 KOs). Cintron, ranked #7 by The Ring, is one of the more exciting fighters in the middle weight classes. His only loss came in a war against Antonio Margarito. And Matthysse’s lone defeat came against Paul Williams.

I do not consider a loss on a fighter’s record to be significant in and of itself. The questions about loses tend to be simple: how did the fighter lose? And how does he deal with defeat? If a fighter quits, it tells you something about their heart. Also, how do they react after the fight? Some guys are destroyed emotionally by a loss. Examples are Mac Foster and Gerry Cooney. Other boxers become focused on revenge. The best examples are Floyd Patterson wanting to get back in the ring with Ingemar Johansson, and Muhammad Ali wanting the return match with Joe Frazier.

This is a fight that could end in one round. Both men have real power. Cintron is certainly the favorite to win, but if the fight goes beyond 5 rounds, he might face some serious problems.

The main event features Antonio Margarito (34-4, with 24 KOs) versus Paul “the Punisher” Williams (32-0, with 24 KOs). This is one of the most important fights of 2007, and it could be one of the most fan-friendly.
Margarito is ranked #2 by The Ring; he is “defending” his WBO “title.” Many boxing people believe that he is the best in the division, and that the “big names” are afraid to fight him. They point out that Floyd Mayweather Jr.,
had been offered $8 million to fight him last year. Other people think he is untested, and make note of his turning down a fight with Miguel Cotto in order to fight Williams.

Margarito is a good example of a fighter who has improved after early loses. Three of his defeats were in his first 12 fights; the other one was a disputed TD that resulted from a head butt that opened a serious cut on
Margarito.

Margarito has some impressive victories. He has defeated Frankie Randall, Antonio Diaz, Joshua Clottey, and most impressively, Kermit Cintron. He has good offensive tools: he punches hard, and has outstanding endurance and heart. He is not gifted at defense, in part because he does not seem to believe that anyone can last by trading punches with him. The Clottey fight showed that he can be out-boxed by an opponent with above-average speed, and side-to-side movement.

Williams is ranked #10 by The Ring. He may pose more of a threat to Margarito than Cotto would. At 6’ 1″ (or 6’ 2″, depending on the source), he is a bit taller than his 5’ 11″ foe. He is also a southpaw. Some people are
comparing him to a young Tommy Hearns. I do not think he has the Hit Man’s defensive skills, but he is showing the ability to put his punches together well, and he hits very hard. No one at welterweight wants to get hit twice
by Williams.

Although Williams is younger – he turns 26 this month, compared to Margarito’s being 29 – he would be best served by not making this a war of attrition. Margarito will look to make it a rough, physical contest, in which he wears the thinner opponent out. Williams needs to keep the fight in the middle of the ring, at arm’s length. Margarito should try to come in under his jab, and nullify William’s reach advantage.

The odds-makers have Margarito a 6-5 favorite two days before the fight. If Margarito wins, he will reportedly be fighting Cotto at the end of the year. But he’s a smart guy, and he isn’t looking past the Saturday night fight.

It’s going to be a heck of a night for boxing fans. I hope that you enjoy the fights!

PARADISE THEATER POST FIGHT

Posted on | July 12, 2007 | No Comments

Moore Victorious At The Paradise Theater

By Matt Yanofsky {ringside}

On the night that featured a shortened six bout card, popular junior middleweight James Moore improved to 12-0 {9 KO’s} after a third round stoppage over Chris Overbey 8-7 {2 KO’s}. Moore started off the contest pressing the action and throwing a high volume of punches while also taking a few from the Sidney, Ohio native. The second round was a back and forth battle where Moore appeared to land some heavy blows mostly via straight right hands. Moore entered the third with the same philosophy and dropped Overbey with a two punch combo. Overbey appeared down for the count which elated the large Irish crowd, but he rose up at 9. Moore went right back to action pushing Overbey against the ropes and landing some more big shots before dropping him again. Overbey’s corner immediately threw in the towel to prevent further punishment. The time of the stoppage was 1:38.

Enormous Heavyweight Terrell Nelson came off a ten year layoff and raised his record to 7-5 (5 KO’s} over Brooklyn spoiler Rodney Ray 4-5-1 {4 KO’s}. After a lackluster first round, Nelson attempted to lure in Ray during the second round. Nelson raised his lead hand in Kostya Tszyu like fashion which led Ray to move in to land a punch. Before that could happen, the near 300 lber landed a huge two punch combination which ended with a straight right hand, putting Ray down for the count to the shock of the crowd. The time of the knockout was :58 of round two. After the bout, Nelson did admit to BoxingTribune.Com that he did use a page out of Tszyu’s book prior to his knockout blow.

Former amateur standout Juan Carlos Herrera 0-1 had an unsuccessful professional debut losing a four round decision to “One Shot” Thomas 1-2. Thomas controlled the entire bout and scored what should have been a knockdown during the second round. However, when Herrera was going down, he knocked over Thomas as well so the referee ruled it a no knockdown since both men ended up on the canvas. Thomas continued to dominate the fight and outbox Herrera while landing clean effective shots. Scores were 40-36 and 39-37 twice for Thomas.

Heavyweight Jason Bergman 5-2 {4 KO’s} scored a shocking first-round technical knockout over Vaughn “MVP” Parham 2-1 {2 KO’s}. Parham, who should be nicknamed “Big Time” {for his size and striking resemblance to Heavyweight contender Jameel Mccline}, was dropped via a two punch combo and arose to wobbly legs. Bergman continued to land heavy shots while Parham attempted to move away and cover up. Bergman stalked Parham and landed a 4 punch combination which pushed Parham against ropes and forced a stoppage at 2:09 of the opening stanza.

Local Cruiserweight prospect Jon “The Fighting Marine” Schneider 4-1 {3 KO’s} had an impressive return following a disappointing first round stoppage loss in his last fight by scoring an almost instant knockout over Travis Waters 0-3. Schneider appeared ready to box but saw an opening and landed a right hand which put Waters down. Waters appeared able to get back to his feet but elected to stay on the canvas for the 10 count only 40 seconds into the fight.

In the opening bout of the evening, Long Island Welterweight Mike Ruiz improved to 3-2 {2 KO’s} after scoring a first round TKO over James Ventry 3-4 {2 KO’s}. Ruiz landed aggressive body punches from the sound of the opening bell. Ruiz was able to hurt Ventry and quickly dropped him twice forcing a referee stoppage 1:36 into the opening round.
