Aqui una lista de algunos peleadores que ya encontraron casa en otras empresas, despues de la compra de PRIDE:

UFC
Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira “Minotauro”
Fabricio Werdum

BodogFight
Fedor Emelianenko
Aleksander Emelianenko

IGF Inoki Genome Federation (Pro Wrestling)
Kevin Randleman
Mark Coleman
Don Frye
Josh Barnett

HERO’S
Sergei Kharitonov
Alistair Overeem

Cage Rage
Eric “Butterbean” Esch
James Thompson

En el caso de Fedor Emelianenko se sabe que tiene varias ofertas y que estuvo en Estados Unidos tratando de llegar a un arreglo con UFC, pero regreso a Rusia sin contrato firmado. Por ahi se me escapan algunos peleadores de esta division de los cuales su situacion es todavia incierta.

Mas casos de dopaje ahora en K-1

Siguen saliendo mas casos de dopaje, esta vez despues del pasado FieLDS K-1 WORLD GP 2007 IN LAS VEGAS llevado a cabo el 11 de agosto.

Rickard Nordstrand dio positivo en Boldenona (Equipoise).
Por su parte Zabit Samedov dio positivo en Stanozolol (Winstrol-V). Samedov peleo tres veces esa noche perdiendo la final del GP ante Doug Viney.

Cabe señalar que estas sustancias (Boldenona y Stanozolol) son anabolicos esteroides de uso veterinario y su uso es muy popular entre muchos “atletas”.

Estos dos peleadores enfrentan una multa de $2,500 USD y suspension por un año.

Royce Gracie no apelara la suspension

Loretta Hunt de The Fight Network publica la razon por la cual Royce no apelara la suspension de un año impuesta por la CSAC a causa de salir positvo en esteroides.

“I did not appeal the decision because I have been in Spain for the last 1 ½ [months] on vacation with my family, and for me to appeal, I would have to get a lawyer, and then get some experts to run tests and then get more experts to argue with their experts, or I can just pay $2500 fine, and sit out for one year,” Gracie wrote. “Well, I fight once a year anyway and it’s much cheaper to pay $2500 in fine then $10,000 retainer to attorney’s alone. As for my fans, those who believe me, believe me anyway, and those who don’t, does not matter what I do, or what I say, they will not believe anyway.”

A Royce siempre se le ha conocido como una persona muy sana, pero en lugar de aclarar la situacion da una excusa un poco rara, viniendo de alguien que definitivamente tiene los medios para pagar abogados.

Nagata vs Uno

K-1 HERO’S anuncio la primer pelea para el opening round del Middle Weight World Championship Tournament, Caol uno (23-9-4) contra Katsuhiko Nagata (3-1-0) medalla de plata de lucha greco-romana en los juegos olimpicos de sydney 2000. Nagata acaba de pelear en el DYNAMITE USA llevandose una victoria por decision ante Isaiah Hill.

Creo que esta sera una pelea muy dificil para Nagata ya que en cuanto a experiencia hay mucha diferencia, Caol Uno ya tiene mucho camino recorrido.

Se habia dicho que podian pelear Barnett vs Kharitonov en este evento, el rumor surgio cuando los organizadores enviaron la aplicacion para la licencia en la cual figuraba esta pelea. Hace unos dias Barnett comento que no hay ningun acuerdo verbal ni escrito para que se realize.

El domingo en conferencia de prensa llevada a cabo en Tokyo, Royce Gracie comento que Sakuraba estaria en mejor forma si dejara de beber y fumar, a lo que Saku contesto “Eso no es asunto tuyo. Disfruto beber y fumar un poco para liberar el estres.”
