El regreso a las MMA de Franco Tenaglia, el Rey de la Calle

Franco Tenaglia (3-2) se ha convertido en una auténtica superestrella de los deportes de contacto. El peleador argentino es el protagonista de un historia de película, de película digna de Oscars. ‘El Rey de la Calle’ cruzó el charco para vivir una vida de gángster ligada a la mafia, pero su talento para el combate le dio un futuro mejor. El reputado peleador del Climent Club de Alicante ha ido alternando las peleas de MMA con las de Bare Knuckle -boxeo a puño descubierto-, donde es campeón de peso ligero. En esta ocasión, Tenaglia volverá al octágono de WAR para medirse a Mikolaj Banasiewicz.

Antes de su debut profesional en MMA, Tenaglia ya sabía lo que era vencer en BKFC. Allí acumuló tres victorias -dos por KO- hasta que el pasado octubre tuvo la oportunidad de pelear por el cinturón mundial de las 155 libras ante Tony Soto. Tras protagonizar uno de los mejores combates de la historia de la compañía, Tenaglia se impuso por decisión unánime recibiendo la felicitación del mismísimo Conor McGregor -copropietario de BKFC-.

A su vez, el peleador argentino afincado en España también ha seguido creciendo en el mundo de las artes marciales mixtas. Tras debutar en 2023 con dos victorias en dos meses, Tenaglia perdió sus dos siguientes combates por finalización. Uno de ellos fue en el WOW 10 ante Theo Bashford. En ese momento, ‘El Rey de la Calle’ se alejó del octágono durante casi un año, pero volvió en verano de 2024 en WAR 2 con otra victoria por KO. Despues de alcanzar el estrellato con las peleas a puño limpio, Franco regresa a la acción en el evento estelar del WAR 5 en Cartagena.

La calle siempre formará parte de Franco

Tenaglia se hizo viral después de su paso por el canal de Jordi Wild, donde relató su vida e inicios, así como por su participación en DWT -el evento de MMA del famoso creador de contenido-… sin olvidar las peleas en caravanas de gitanos en Gales o ‘King of the Streets’, una liga clandestina de la que se desconoce organizadores o días de grabación. Es, tal cual, el Rey de la Calle. “MMA sin reglas. Es lo más salvaje que existe hasta el momento. Eso fue mi medio para llegar ahora a dónde estoy”, contó a MARCA el año pasado. 

Tras haber visto cosas de todo tipo, no hay nada que asuste a Franco. Por ello, el Pabellón Municipal Wssell de Guimbarda será testigo de una pelea estelar con violencia asegurada. Agustín y Jorge Climent, entrenadores entre otros de Ilia y Aleksandre Topuria -y del propio Franco-, ya han mostrado el orgullo que supone tener en WAR a alguien como el argentino. BKFC, MMA, peleas clandestinas… No hay nada que se le resita a un Tenaglia cuyo sueño es acabar recalando en la UFC.

Jutanugarn suffers dramatic stumble as Saigo wins Chevron in five-way play-off

Ariya Jutanugarn dramatically fluffed a chip at the final regulation hole before losing in a five-way play-off as Mao Saigo won The Chevron Championship after a remarkable finish in Texas.Jutanugarn attempted to dink onto the 18th green from the adjacent rough but stubbed her shot and the ball only moved a matter of inches. She went on to suffer a bogey six to lose her one-shot lead, drop to seven under and slip into an overtime shootout with Saigo, Hyo-Joo Kim, Ruoning Yin and Lindy Duncan at the first major of the season.Yin, Duncan and Saigo all nailed birdie putts on the final green to reach the play-off but Kim missed one of her own that would ultimately have seen her victorious in regulation time after Jutanugarn's bizarre moment at the last.

Hugo Souza sinaliza melhor goleiro do mundo ao abordar falha em Flamengo x Corinthians

Hugo Souza, em jogo do Corinthians (Rodrigo Coca/ Ag. Corinthians) Hugo Souza, no reencontro com o Flamengo, teve um jogo para ser esquecido pelo Corinthians. Além do placar de 4 a 0, o goleiro falhou no primeiro gol anotado por Pedro, que recebeu uma bola de “presente” do camisa 1. Apesar disso, houve uma lembrança que até mesmo Courtois, eleito como melhor do mundo na posição, também é passível de cometer erros, algo visto na final da Copa do Rei. Neste cenário, situações pontuais de infelicidade não definem o nível de qualidade em campo. “Eu estava vendo a final da Copa do Rei e o Courtois acabou falhando. Eu falei que ele continua sendo o melhor goleiro do mundo. Óbvio que não estou me comparando, mas o erro de hoje não me faz ser o pior do mundo e o […]
