UFC 142 Preview – Hayabusa Sponsored Fighters!

Terry Etim is one of the most well rounded mixed martial artists to ever come out of the UK. Etim possesses a very fluid and dynamic striking game, but the vast majority of his wins have come by submission. With 12 submission wins, and 4 UFC ai???submission of the nightai??i?? bonuses, his opponents should think twice before closing the distance with him. Donai??i??t make the mistake of thinking Terry is a one dimensional fighter, as he also has 2 KOai??i??s to his credit and uses a great striking game to control the pace of the fight. Etim is a very experienced fighter and, at the age of 25, has a long and successful career ahead of him.

Terry has won 6 of his last seven and, after his defeat on April 10, 2010, returned to his winning ways on November 5, 2011. The 19 month layoff, due to a serious rib injury, was hard on Etim, but now that he is healthy and back on the winning track, he is looking to make it two in a row and continue his climb to the top of the 155lb division. This time he is going into hostile territory, as he takes on undefeated Brazilian fighterAi??Edson Barboza. Terry will have to endure the initial blaze of Barboza, as Edson is known to come out hard and fast. Etim hopes to avenge the defeat of fellow countryman Ross Pearson, who lost a hard fought split decision to Barboza at UFC Rio in August 2011. Terry will carry the UK fighting spirit to Rio for his battle against Barboza. Hayabusa is excited to, once again, partner with Terry Etim and wishes him the best of luck in his upcoming lightweight battle.

Hayabusa would also like to wish Antonio Carvalho the best, as he makes his UFC debut at UFC Rio Aldo vs. Mendes. This well-rounded Canadian standout has a vast amount of experience and will look to make an immediate impact in the featherweight division. Carvalho will be competing in the new Haburi Compression Shorts.

Hayabusa UFC 140 Jones Ai??Machida news letter

Brian ai???Bad Boyai??? EbersoleAi??is one of the most interesting fighters in the UFC. Brian is a true veteran of the sport and has over 60 professional fights to his credit. Ebersole possesses a mixed bag of tricks and can devastate his opponents where ever the fight takes place. Brian has 20 wins by submission, so you think he would only be a grappler, but he also has 14 wins by KO, so heai??i??s dangerous in all aspects of MMA. ai???Bad Boyai??? has the ability to take you down, choke you out, knee you in the clinch, destroy you on the feet and/or knock you out with a destructive arsenal of punches and kicks. In his last fight, Brian was granted a special ai???of the night bonusai??? that everyone was glad he won; ai???The Thank you for getting those shorts off of TV so quicklyai??? bonus againstAi??Dennis Hallman. Ebersole takes hisAi??9 fight win streakAi??(and winner of 13 of his last 14) into Toronto against hometown boyAi??Claude ai???The Princeai??? Patrick. Brian was originally scheduled to face fast-rising starAi??Rory MacDonald, but due to injury that showdown will have to wait for another day. Unless his girlfriend shaves it off again, the ai???Hairrowai??? will most likely make its appearance at UFC 140. Brian is an easy going, friendly character and loves to joke, laugh and put out crazy YouTube videos, but when the cage door shuts ai???Bad Boyai??? is tough, durable and relentless in his pursuit of victory. At 31 years of age, it is hard to call Brian an up-and-comer, but in the UFCai??i??s welterweight division, that is just what he his. It took Brian a long time, and a lot of fights, to get in the UFC and he is taking every advantage of the opportunity and could possibly work his way up to a ai???top tenai??? opponent with a win over Patrick in Toronto. Brian ai???Bad Boyai??? Ebersole trains and competes inAi??HayabusaAi??combat equipment and apparel.Ai??HayabusaAi??is proud of the continued partnership with Brian and, again, wishes him the best of luck in his forthcoming battle.

Constantinos ai???Costaai??? PhilippouAi??is coming off a hard fought, three round split decision win overAi??Jorge RiveraAi??at UFC 133.

Constantinos is a former professional boxer with fast, accurate hands and, as he trains with the Serra-Longo Fight Team, an ever improving ground game. ai???Costaai??? has only lost once in his last 10 fights (8-1, 1 NC) and the loss was his UFC debut. He has learned from that loss, shaken off the UFC ai???jittersai??i??, got his first win in the UFC and now looks to blaze a destructive path through the Middleweight division. Philippou has the striking skills to keep anyone on their toes and he will need them against Hamman. This fight will be a tough challenge for Constantinos as this is Jaredai??i??s second fight at 185, coming down from light heavyweight, so he is a big middleweight. ai???Costaai??? will be looking for the finish this time as his last fight was a hard fought split decision victory.Ai??HayabusaAi??is excited to, once again, partner with Constantinos ai???Costaai???

Sprawl Fusion 2 Fight Shorts – A Closer Look!

Check out our review of the new Sprawl Fusion 2 Fight Shorts. We’ve taken a closer look at the New Sprawl Fusion 2 Shorts, have a look at the pics below to get a better idea of the quality and detail of the much anticipated follow up to Sprawls’ legendary Fusion Fight Shorts range!

Before you begin being impressed by the features that we’ve shown below, we’ve taken the time to highlight some of the differences between the new Fusion 2 Fight Shorts and the previous Fusion Stretch Series Fight Shorts

What’s changed since the original Fusion Stretch Series Shorts?

Appearance

With a much sleeker and simplified design than their predecessors, these shorts still maintain the distinctive ‘Sprawl’ look, the logo on the sides of the shorts and the favoured contrasting coloured piping. Once again, Sprawl have employed the ‘less is more’ approach to achieve a distinctive and refreshingly simple set of designs.

Fabric

As per the Fusion Stretch Series Shorts, the Fusion 2’s are made from the same tough but light weight (4-way stretch) material that is slightly heavier than what you may find on most other MMA shorts. The latter is by no means a drawback, as the slightly heavier than normal material increases it’s durability and helps to reduce ‘ride-up’.

Features – Smaller Split Seam

Another of the more visible differences on the Fusion 2 shorts is the reduced split seam on the side of the shorts. Implemented to further reduce ‘ride-up’, whilst still aiding an increased range of motion when performing full kicks and other techniques and manoeuvres.

Features – Ring Seam on Leg Lining

As with the smaller split seam, you will notice a further new feature that has been introduced to reduce ‘ride-up’ on these shorts. As you can see on Image 6 below, the stretch panel does not go all the way to the edge of the seam of the shorts and is in fact lined by the black ‘ring seam’ that goes all the way around the leg of the shorts. Although slightly reducing the stretch panels ability to stretch at the base of the leg, the ring seam does mean that these shorts will fit more securely and are less likely to ‘ride-up’.

Features – Improved Velcro Enclosure System

In comparison to the Fusion S. S. (Stretch Series), Sprawl have given the Fusion 2’s a thicker waist band and subsequently thicker and wider Velcro fastening areas. The thicker and wider Velcro panels give more surface area for the panels to stick together, therefore increasing the stability and reliability of the fastening.
