las vegas Ronda Rousey

LAS VEGAS – It took Ronda Rousey just 16 seconds to defend her UFC women’s bantamweight title against Alexis Davis.



One solid right hand, one knee to the body, then a hip toss followed by a machine gun battering of short rights on the ground. With that, Davis (16-6 MMA, 3-1 UFC) was out and Rousey (10-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) was still the champ.


The women’s bantamweight title bout was the co-main event of today’s UFC 175 event at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. It aired on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.


The lone bright spot for Davis came immediately at the start of the bout, as she marched to the center of the cage and promptly landed a straight punch that popped Rousey’s back ever so slightly. After that, things got bad for the Canadian challenger.


Rousey stunned Davis with a right hand of her own, then dug a knee into her body before tossing her like a rag doll and going to work with short right hands on the ground. After half a dozen or so, Davis’ body went momentarily limp, prompting referee Yves Lavigne to step in and call a halt to the bout at 0:16 of the first round. Davis’ body appeared to be on auto-pilot by then, as she continued to cling to Rousey’s body and then attempted a single-leg takedown on Lavigne, who struggled to make her understand that the bout was over.

Even after such a quick and dominant performance, Rousey insisted there was still room for improvement.


I got clipped once, and I don’t want to let that happen again,” Rousey told UFC color commentator Joe Rogan.


The drama for Rousey didn’t end there, however, as Rogan said he was being told to ask whether she’d be willing to step in at UFC 176 in August, an event that recently lost its headliner when UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo withdrew due to injury. Rousey appeared slightly stunned by the question, and said she already has a knee surgery scheduled, but she’d consult her coaches on the matter.


f they say it’s cool with them, it’s cool with me,” said Rousey. “I’ll do it.”

With the win, Rousey remains perfect in her MMA career. Davis suffers the first loss of her UFC career.http://youtu.be/c8HhvH2qYN4

ROBERTO DURAN hall of fame

ROBERTO DURAN CONFIRMS ATTENDANCE
NEVADA BOXING HALL OF FAME CEREMONY/DINNER AUGUST 9
LEGENDARY “HANDS OF STONE” WILL FLY FROM PANAMA
TO LAS VEGAS FOR HIS INDUCTION
 One of boxing’s most iconic figures, 4-Division World champion Roberto Duran, has announced that he and family members will travel the long distance from Panama to Las Vegas for his induction into the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame. Duran will be among 18 inductees feted at the gala NVBHOF Induction Ceremony and Dinner August 9 at The New Tropicana, Las Vegas. Duran was selected by the 35-member voting panel in the “Non-Nevada Resident” category which honors those who have come from outside Nevada to fight in the state at least 10 times or in 7 world title bouts, and distinguished themselves at the highest levels.
Reached in Panama, Duran said, “It’s an honor and a true privilege to be inducted into the Nevada Hall of Fame with great boxing legends like Mr. Foreman and Mr. Holyfield”.
Duran embarked on his legendary 33 year career in 1968. He made his Nevada debut in devastating fashion, stopping rival Esteban De Jesus, the first man who had ever defeated him, in 12 rounds. Duran would fight 14 times in Nevada, many of them during the era of the big outdoor fights in Las Vegas. Ironically, one of his greatest Nevada fights resulted in a loss, a razor-thin decision defeat to bigger and heavily-favored Marvelous Marvin Hagler, two judges having Hagler ahead by only 1 point at the fight’s conclusion.
Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame President/Founder Rich Marotta said, “We are excited that Roberto will travel to join us for his induction. I have seen how boxing fans continue to idolize Manos De Piedra. If you look at Roberto’s third fight of a legendary trilogy against Sugar Ray Leonard, you will see why the Nevada Boxing HOF is a family. Roberto’s opponent Leonard was inducted into the NVBHOF last year, as was the fight’s promoter Bob Arum, and judged by still another inductee from last year Joe Cortez. It opened the Mirage Hotel of Steve Wynn, was refereed by Richard Steele and they both will enter the NVBHOF along with Duran.
Tickets are now on-sale for the August 9 Induction. Cocktails and Silent Auction begin at 6PM, with dinner and ceremony beginning at 7:15. Tax deductible tickets can be purchased on the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame website: nvbhof.com   Ticket prices are $300 for Gold Level Vip seating, and $175 for Silver Level. Tickets include dinner, program and souvenir gift.
The Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame is an IRS 501-c-3 non-profit charitable organization. Ticket purchases, donations, auction and raffle tickets are tax-deductible.

Las Vegas.

Starting in the early1940s, resort hotels and fancy casinos were the big tourist attractions in Las Vegas. But there were plenty of small bars and casinos, too. The red, white and blue Victory Club was one of those. From the look of it, it was a rough place.

Located on the Boulder Highway near Henderson, it was built in the early years of WWII to serve the workers at the enormous Basic Magnesium plant that was nearby. The hand-painted sign above the front door reads, Through These Portals Pass The Finest People in the World, Our Customers." Uh-huh.

I drove past the Victory Club nine jillion times to use one of my mom's phrases, but never stepped foot inside. One evening in 1970 I stopped to shoot this photo of the exterior because I thought the building probably wouldn't be there much longer.

My friend Stephen Kopels' father brought him here sometime around 1950 and introduced him to Jim Thorpe, renowned as the world's greatest athlete during the first half of the twentieth century. Jim Thorpe worked briefly as a bartender here. He died in 1953 at age sixty-five.

The sign next to the "V" reads "Coors." The window signs advertise Seagram's gin and bourbon.
