WSOF 4′s Brandon Hempleman believes Marlon Moraes will underestimate his standup

BAD MMA News — Wed, 07 Aug 2013 23:35:00 +0000

While Marlon Moraes is a significant favorite over Brandon Hempleman at this Saturday’s World Series of Fighting 4 event, there’s one thing neither Moraes nor oddsmakers can prepare for: “Hot Rod’s” element of surprise. Entering his promotional debut against one of the most highly touted bantamweight prospects in the game today, few are giving Hempleman a chance of getting his hand raised against an opponent riding an impressive four-fight win streak.   As for Hempleman (9-1), he views his under-the-radar profile as an advantage and believes his lack of notoriety will be advantageous against Moraes (10-4-1) come fight night, particularly in the striking department.   “I think he’s going to underestimate (my striking), so he better be ready for it,” Hempleman told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). “There’s not a lot of video on me.”  Having fought his first 10 professional bouts in regional promotions throughout the United States and Europe, Hempleman has quietly worked his way up to the opportunity he will get Saturday at Citizens Bank Arena in Ontario, Calif.   Moraes is a fighter who has received a lot of attention since defeating Miguel Torres and Tyson Nam in his first two WSOF appearances, and Hempleman has been keeping a close eye on his opponent’s body of work.   “I think (his standup) is good,” Hempleman said.

BAD MMA News — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 17:00:00 +0000

Although British UFC fans have been gearing up for a return to Manchester this fall, the promotion has a caution. The UFC’s United Kingdom office on Tuesday posted to its official Facebook page telling fans that while efforts for a show in Manchester are underway, it’s not a done deal. “We are aware that a large number of you are asking about a possible Manchester event for October 26 this year, however we are not yet able to confirm that we are heading back to one of Britain’s most famous cities due to the many factors involved in hosting such a huge event,” the UFC stated. “We are working hard to bring the UK a card of real significance and if we are able to make this happen it would be the event of the year in Europe. Your need to book transport, tickets and accommodation in advance is appreciated and as soon as we can confirm anything, we will let you know.” UFC President Dana White in June told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) the promotion was planning a show in Manchester , where it most recently visited for UFC 105 in November 2009. This past week, MMAjunkie.com first reported a plannedmiddleweight headliner between Michael Bisping (24-5 MMA, 14-5 UFC) and Mark Munoz (13-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) for the event, which would take place Oct. 26 at Manchester Arena.
