Romano Fenati: "This is a team with which I am sure I will be happy. I realized during the tests and on the 2016 Honda, I was immediately at ease. The first few laps I must confess though I'm ashamed to admit, it was hard to get used to the speed! That is, I felt like I had my mum sitting at my side saying "slow down!" but then, lap after lap, I regained security and I got back into it. During the winter I did some special training to strengthen my shoulders, arms and back: I shoveled tons of snow. I’m from Ascoli and between earthquakes and incredible snowfall I haven’t stopped; in my small way, I have tried

Watch Bruins D-Man Colin Miller Fight Miles Wood, Tackle Him To Ice
Share this: Colin Miller doesn’t fight much. In fact, the Boston Bruins defenseman had only one fight on his NHL card entering Monday night’s road game against the New Jersey Devils. But Miller isn’t afraid to drop his gloves if needed, and that’s exactly what he did Monday when his defense partner Kevan Miller got rocked by a huge hit from Devils forward Miles Wood. Miller and Wood squared off at center ice, with both players landing some punches before the B’s defenseman got the takedown.

Here’s How Paige VanZant Won Previous Fight With Vicious Kick To Face
Share this: Paige VanZant has her doubters, but anyone who watched her last fight knows not to take her lightly. VanZant will take on Michelle Waterson in a five-round, women’s strawweight bout Saturday night that will headline UFC Fight Night Sacramento. The 22-year-old enters the fight with a 7-2 record in UFC, with perhaps her most impressive victory coming the last time she entered the octagon.

Share this: On Dec. 30 at UFC 207, Ronda Rousey will make her highly anticipated return to the octagon when she squares off against women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes. But despite all the hype, UFC legend Chuck Liddell told TMZ he wouldn’t bet on Rousey, as he believes she should have eased herself back instead of jumping into a match of this magnitude. “I wouldn’t take the chance on her being (recovered) from all the mental stuff,” Liddell told TMZ, as transcribed by FOX Sports. “Personally, as a coach, I’d like to have seen her come back — it’s harder at her stature to take a lower-level fight — but I would have liked to see her come back in a smaller fight. I would
Paige VanZant Ready To Prove Doubters Wrong At UFC Fight Night Sacramento
Because a lot of people feel like Paige VanZant was foisted upon them — declared the one to watch and the “next big thing” in the strawweight division — almost instantaneously following her first UFC victory, the narratives that have surrounded the 22-year-old fighter as she’s prepared to hit the cage have frequently carried a great doubtful tone. While young talents frequently are put in a position to prove themselves against more established veterans, the questions directed at VanZant rarely have been about the caliber of opponent she’s about to face. Instead, they have often been questions seemingly designed to get the Team Alpha Male representa... NESN.com
Ronda Rousey Is Out For Revenge In Intense Promo For UFC 207 Return
Ronda Rousey is back, and she’s not going down without a fight. The former UFC bantamweight champion is making her return to the sport Dec. 30 in a title fight against Amanda Nunes at UFC 207. And, if the possibility of seeing Rousey win her belt back after a year-long break doesn’t pump you up enough, UFC released a goosebump-inducing promo for the event through TMZ on Wednesday. Rousey last fought Nov. 15, 2015, when Holly Holm handed her the first loss of her career at UFC 193. However, no one has been able to hold onto the bantamweight belt since then, as Holm lost to Miesha Tate at UFC 196 and Tate
