Dana White Will Bring Victim of Bullying Keaton Jones to UFC HQ

Recently, a boy named Keaton Jones was a victim of bullying and his mother, Kimberly Jones, puts a video of her son describing detailing the bullying that he experienced at school.
As we can see in a video Bullies were calling this boy ugly, saying to him he have no friends and all other things to mess up his psyche.

That was enough for UFC president Dana White to repost a video of Keaton Jones and invite him to UFC Headquarters in Las Vegas to hang out there. Dana is also looking for anyone who knows this boy or his mother to contact him, so he’s able to reach them.

Meet Keaton Jones a very smart little boy who is being bullied at school. This video is heartbreaking!! I want to bring Keaton to Vegas and hang out at UFC Headquarters. If anyone knows how i can reach the family please let me know. Thank u everyone

UPDATE:

Dana white posts on his twitter account:

“Thank u all for helping try to find Keaton. 1000% greatest post and response in my social media history. This kid is special and we all feel it. Dying to meet him!!”

Dana White was able to find a kid and looks like this story will have a happy ending.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s Weight Cutting Video – It’s a Torture For Human Body

Joanna Jedrzejczyk's Weight Loss Video - It's a Torture For Human Body

Joanna Jedrzejczyk weight vutting video showed up on various sites. The video contains material of her losing weight for her first title defense in the UFC which she had two years ago.

She was cutting weight for her match against Jessica Penna for their bout in summer of 2015. It was probably her best fight in UFC’s career, but before she had gone through the hell and back, with a short stay in one of the worst circles.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk's Weight Cutting Video
Joanna Jedrzejczyk’s Weight Cutting

At the beginning, we see Joanna during the teasing, and by that way we listen to her self-admiration, or an attempt to turn her thoughts away from what she feels right now. Even hough she is laying on the floor, she is extremely hyperactive, which is just a proof of how she really feels. She could not hide her face in the other footage where we watch her in the tub and where she was no longer trying to encourage herself. She’s just trying to get through pain and endure the end of the process.

It’s not surprising that this video came out the same day Joanna announced that she had left the team of nutritionists mentioning that she almost died while weight cutting for the fight against Rose Namajunas.

Of course, we can not be sure what’s the real reson or the truth or the search for the reasons for her first defeat in the MMA career. But what is certain is that UFC banned this video to saw the light of the day two and half years ago. But now he has appeared and serves as another example of how much danger process weight cutting really is.

It should be the best for everyone to listen to advice from Joanna ‘s new team: “New video emerges of the drastic lengths Joanna Jędrzejczyk went to making weight in 2015. Back in a days UFC PR staff told us to delete it or else… STOP FIGHTERS MAKING WEIGHT!”

On Kasai Pro’s superfight Gordon Ryan was matched against Yuri Simoes. They’re both  ADCC 2017 medalists with Gordon Ryan winning ADCC division Gold and Absolute silver while Yuri took home ADCC’s gold in his weight division, but didn’t compete in Absolute due to injury.

The match between these two “giants” started very aggressively from both sides. Gordon sat down to butterfly guard while trying to get Yuri into it. Gordon managed to get Yuri into front headlock. He tried to come to yuri’s back but with no success. They both ended up standing with Yuri pulling half guard after short amount of time.

Yuri did a great job pulling Gordon into his deep half guard but he didn’t manage to use it in his favor. Gordon took advantage of Yuri’s Half Guard and tried to get Yuri in a triangle choke but with no success.

The beautiful move happened after they both ended standing. Gordon Ryan did an Uchi Mata takedown on Yuri and immediately tried to apply kimura, but again, with no success.

Soon after that Gordon ended up on the bottom playing an open guard with yuri on top trying some hard pressure passes. Gordon knowing very well what Yuri is trying managed to get on Yuri’s back. From there Gordon locks body triangle trapping Yuri’s arms and submitting him with Rear Naked Choke with 18 seconds left to the end of a match.

Winner: Gordon Ryan via Rear Naked Choke

Garry Tonon Defeats AJ Agazarm on Kasai Pro – Video

KASAI Pro is the tournament for Jiu-Jitsu’s most decorated names.  It’s contains of eight-man No Gi Tournament to crown KaSAI’s inaugural World Lightweight Champion

Garry Tonon and AJ Agazarm met each other on tournaments many times before and Garry Tonon was always a winner. And this time they met on Kasai Pro there wasn’t any change. Gordon Ryan won against AJ Agazaram Again!

Last time they fought Aj Agazarm suffered a knee injury while avoiding to tap on Garry’s tight knee bar. The knee bar was very tight but history between these guys is so big that looks like tapping is not an option.

In this match we could see some early arm drags from Garry which sent AJ agazarm of the mat, AJ’s shootings for single leg and Garry’s Kimura attempt.

The most interesting part of the match was when Garry went for flying triangle and managed to lock it. It really looked like he’ll be able to finish it. But, somehow, AJ Agazarm was able to pull his head out of it.

After Garry’s failed triangle attempt he managed to stay on top in Aj Agazarms Knee Shield Guard earning himself two points.

At the end of the match Garry hit a very good ankle pick

Garry wasn’t able to do some serious threat this time on AJ Agazarm. As Kasai Pro uses IBJJF Rules Garry managed to secure himself a victory by points.

Watch Mackenzie Dern Armbar on Kaline Mendeiros at Invicta FC 26

24-year-old Mackenzie Dern is still unbeaten in her MMA carrer. She just racks up her victories where ever she shows up. After the Invicta FC debut versus Kaline Mendeiros she’s 5-0 in her MMA carrer.

Mackenzie Dern is also one of the biggest names in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and 4 times BJJ World Champion.

On Friday night she was very successful against mma veteran Kaline Medeiros ib the co-main event of Invicta FC 26 in Kansas city.

In the third round of Invicta FC 26 at the 4:45 mark Mackenzie locked up an armbar on Kaline Medeiros. She was looking very good throughout the whole fight and she was clearly winning the first two rounds. WE can’t say that Veteran Kaline was an easy match up for Young Mackenzie Dern but MacKenziue dern again proved that she’s a new force in women MMA and that soon everyone will be in huge problems with her.

You can watch the video of MacKenzie Dern’s Submission over Kaline Medeiros in a video below.

What’s more important is that Mackenzie Dern is much better in a stand up. It’s not perfect, but it’s getting better fight after fight. She has no problems engaging in full stand up fight using her Muay Thai skills. She even said that her main plan for this fight wasn’t going full on takedowns and on the ground.

Why BJJ Is So Important For Police Officers

hy BJJ Is So Important For Police Officers

Every once in a while, we can see a video on the internet that shows us what happens when police officers don’t have any idea on how to control a suspect.

When the officers try to arrest the man, and he resists, officers usually go for punches, kicks, teasers and even using their gun. But the reality is, with a bit of Jiu Jitsu training they would avoid using any brute force and they would be able to control their suspects without any problems. Efficient control of the suspect would result in less weapon use, less deaths and much less problems for the officers.

Rickson Gracie: 9 out of 10 Black Belts Are Practicing Anti Jiu Jitsu

As Rickson Gracie Appeared on Chael Sonnen’s podcast he had some strong words about the current state of sports in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He even calls it Anti Jiu-Jitsu.

The main thing that Rickson refers to is the point system and stalling. He calls it rampart stalling and he thinks this point system and the way fighters are fighting endangers the sport’s future.

“I see 10 fights of black belts. Nine, I feel like ‘what are they doing there? They don’t even want to fight. They want to win the match by a little advantage.”

“That’s really jeopardizing our culture. We have to bring back the idea of fighting to be the best with simple rules, dynamic action, nonstop,” Rickson said.

Rickson, also, see a problem in Jiu-Jitsu ruleset and the way referees give points.

“Today, the rules are based on interpretations. The same judge can give 2 almost identical fights different results because the interpretation is different so it’s important for us to create a set of rules. But really define who is really winning the fight and most of all hurting the growth because as a competitor in MMA, judo, or jiu-jitsu you want to minimize the risks. You want to maximize the chance to win.”

Rickson is a founder of the JJGF /Jiu-Jitsu Global Federation) and he has his own ruleset. He gave approval for his rules to be utilized on a tournament in Albany, New York.

In 2005 he lent his name Budo Challenge tournament in the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles in six 4-man brackets containing BJJ superstars including Ronaldo Jacare Souza, Leo Vieira, Andre Galvao, Xande Ribeiro, Shinya Aoki, Robert Drysdale, and many more.

Breaking: Manny Pacquiao vs Conor Mcgregor Negotiations Started

Breaking: Manny Pacquiao vs Conor Mcgregor Negotiations Confirmed by Manny

Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao confirmed that preliminary negotiations are underway for a boxing match against Conor McGregor in April, 2018.

Here is the report from Skysports

Manny Pacquiao has revealed he and Conor McGregor have held preliminary talks about a possible fight in April.

Pacquiao, a senator in his native Philippines, was asked on Friday if he had approached McGregor’s representatives about a fight.

“Initially,” Pacquiao said. “But we have not yet had any follow-up conversations.

“If we can negotiate it, I have no problem. It is OK with both of us.”

Last month, Pacquiao took to social media with a message that appeared to hint at a match with McGregor:

“Happy Thanksgiving! Stay fit my friend. #realboxingmatch #2018 @thenotoriousmma.”

Pacquiao, who turns 39 this month, lost his WBO welterweight title to Australian Jeff Horn in July, having come out of retirement in 2016 to take the belt from American Jessie Vargas.

McGregor has not fought in MMA or boxing since losing to Floyd Mayweather by a 10th-round technical knockout in their bout in Las Vegas in August.

Pacquiao, who has won eight world championships in different weight divisions, stressed McGregor is just one of many possible opponents and the fight has to happen during the Senate recess in the Philippines:

“It depends who they can finalise as my opponent by April,” he said.

Aside from McGregor, Pacquiao could also have a rematch with Horn or a fight with 29-year-old American Keith Thurman who holds the WBA Super welterweight title and the WBC welterweight title.
