Video: Ahead of WSOF 20, Ali Abdelaziz relives the insanity behind recent success

BAD MMA News — Fri, 10 Apr 2015 19:45:08 +0000

Filed under: Featured Videos , News , Videos , WSOF Two weeks ago, WSOF put on what is widely considered to be the promotion’s best card to date, but the event was nearly an absolute disaster. Ahead of tonight’s “WSOF 20: Branch vs. McElligott,” WSOF matchmaker Ali Abdelaziz recalls how Matt Hamill’s unexpected illness caused a chain reaction that threatened the integrity of March’s WSOF 19 event. Due to some quick thinking and a flexible roster of fighters, Abdelaziz made a series of changes that resulted in one of most entertaining nights in WSOF history, and the matchmaker believes it will go down in history as a real turning point for the company. Watch the video above to hear how it all came together

WSOF 20′s Ozzy Dugulubgov: I was prepared for Melvin Guillard to be pulled

BAD MMA News — Fri, 10 Apr 2015 18:20:38 +0000

Ozzy Dugulubgov Ozzy Dugulubgov ’s demeanor is surprisingly restrained for a fighter who recently missed out on the most noteworthy contest of his entire career. Dugulubgov was originally scheduled to meet UFC veteran Melvin Guillard in the co-main event of WSOF 20 tonight at Foxwoods Resort & Casino in Mashantucket, Conn. The event streams on NBCSN following prelims on MMAjunkie. But the organization pulled Guillard from the event just days out due to his inability to complete standard pre-fight medical exams. Dugulubgov (6-2) now faces replacement opponent Lucas Montoya (8-3) in the lightweight main card bout. Opponent changes on fight week aren’t ideal, but they’re not uncommon practice in the sport

BAD MMA News — Fri, 10 Apr 2015 11:38:43 +0000

Juliano Coutinho Juliano Coutinho ’s journey to the WSOF stage is a bit different from most fighters who make their way to a nationally televised promotion. Coutinho lost his pro debut, suffering a knockout in one minute against Pat Bennett. That was in August 2009. It was March 2012 before Coutinho had another professional bout. “After my MMA debut, which was a loss, I didn’t fight for a while,” Coutinho told MMAjunkie. “I put my nose to the grindstone and focused on training. Realistically, I saw that I needed to train more.
