promotions to fight not serious and they're already feels his ultimate goal is on the horizon. in the company was and i don't care who i face in the ring i fight anyone and even now i feel ready to fight for the champions belt a couple more fights before the title bout would be perfect i think if i have a three no record in the u.f.c. i'll be given a title shot. to finish here. in terms of skill he's ready he has great books in a good ground game to me nobody in the u.f.c. flyweight division is better a stronger king or grappling than him he's also a very strong athlete based weight but it's just not the right time yet he's only just made his debut in style and will soon have a second fight on the seas anniversary such a lot of emotion and drive he needs to experience it and get used to his new environment have safe for fights in the year and only then the u.f.c.

champions title will become his sole motivation and that will be the right time. well the chance to become the undisputed best flyweight in the world really is what waiting for. our city. now moving on to freestyle wrestling and russia fought back from three nil down to be rivals georgia four three after a gripping final ballot at the six nation moscow lites cup michael graf janko was there. the sport of wrestling is on a high after keeping its traditional spot of the lympics and rushes freestyle wrestling team was also in a confident mood after finishing second at the recent world championships in budapest yet this time around they went into the bouts against rivals georgia already one nil down as they missed the likes of olympic champion jamal dawson time off and failed to register a single wrestler in the hundred twenty kilogram category they then face another

uphill task i think the lighter weights fail to handle their opponents and give to them made this a put three milly's on their fighting spirit was finally found at some us some accordion produces a strong performance this is called by and nothing gets done i'm still using gold medalists sauce one slip to leave to tie in the balance at the mall then ask anyone from. the house on my sixty. to have a russian time but this is a seven point six victory. of course georgia has a strong team they're great at traditional wrestling as well as freestyle and it was a pleasure to meet them in the final and even though we had a younger reserve side that day fortune was in our favor and that with the help of desire if we won this thanks to everyone involved and thanks to all the fans it was the. earlier in the graeco-roman final turkey also beat

a determined georgia team forty three but again only after getting their opponents a three new lead. with the deciding victory coming through veteran wrestler to lose a. russian made up for not making the finals by slashing boag area seven zero however head coach this really was still proud of his young squad. but only said is it in this last hour we came with a reserve team as we let our limping champions have a rest after their efforts at the world championships our three heaviest weight categories work at the youngsters so of course we knew it would different be. goal is to win everything but you can win the move will be sure though with women the next olympics and the world championships so for thirty years running the moscow lights european nations cup has been a good way for europe's resting elite to end the calendar year this year however seems to be a little bit more significant what with olympic but now sealed and a revamp of the rules and many here will be hoping that it will stay in the olympic

sports well beyond twenty twenty four like a coach and go moscow. and after surviving that a lympics scare wrestling was among the forty one sports whose pictograms were unveiled for the rio olympics in twenty sixteen these images were first used at the nine hundred forty eight london games and have since become key symbols along with the a limping rings. while brazil also marked one thousand days to go before the games by opening an observatory at the rio and big park the nine me to tower over the construction site where nine venues will host ten and then pick and ten paralympic sports in twenty sixteen rio games all the first to be staged in south america. and there's less than ninety days to go before russia host their maiden winter olympics in sochi and the torch to light up those games was taken on a space walk for the first time in history russian cosmonauts called off and so

again it is an ski pass the torch to each other to complete the first ever relay in outer space that torch will light the cauldron at the opening ceremony on february the seventh. and let's finish with a host of spectacular stunts from the night trace circus show which wowed the crowd here in moscow and michael kraft met some of the stars to find out what a night rose all about. gravity defying tricks jaw dropping stunts and a bit of slapstick entertainment is all in a day's work for the night to sixty people started just over a decade ago as a bunch of guys explains motor sports a strong feeling good bye and base jumps down the range of. it's now a global and from going to t.c. on the street as well as the pub. but despite the rapid rise of change still comes

across as a bunch of guys doing stunts circus is you know it's like you know time a group of friends are pretty much a family and i we're just like helping each other push each other's limits and just like you know support number one and you know this is a great way that you know how to motivate your people to see what your true potential isn't that they can really do anything and push their sport really hard. twenty two year old down for the ring i'm has spinal bifida and he's used the wheelchair since he was three he's the forms tricks adapted from skateboarding the next you know like customized chant with full suspension which cushions his landings. the most high octane stance by the freestyle motocross riders with their crazy tricks high in the air drawing the biggest gusts from the crowd like a circus team or a close knit family as much as they are crazy individuals but they are all professionals and they include some of the best in the world just like exclaims

blake williams so well as contests and. you have to push push the progression of the sport every single tony rodham after doing that i usually had a lot of crashes charland stuff and other people have a donna and even doing tricks that all done over the years that were pretty hard with this is more or less. so it's more about. not just being the best as an individual but running together as a group and you know that really counts because they were all together all the time on the need that when you go on upside down three people water cross a downer. like i said it's more relaxed approach but it's still very dangerous and that's why. the group isn't exclusive to guys record breaking stuff joe levy was the first canadian women's motocross champion and the first woman to backflip a full sized bike i never feel pressure i just and being i know it everyone

always thinks oh you're the only girl you must feel some type of pressure being the only girl but i don't i see myself as one of them and i'm always just trying to push myself and do awesome stuff like they are all the time and i just kind of you know have a focus on certain stunts that i want to do for my own personal being and i just go out there and get them. and that view is just one member of a very cost as the knights of crew action sport collective includes extreme sports mountain bike and scooter idea to ski the base jump as snow in skateboarders and roller skaters plus a range of contraptions performed by experts in the field who want you to enjoy a truly unique show. and that's all the sport i find. this is obviously more for the latest because it's pink. women wanted to avoid rate

they really needed to buy guns environs how to use them. this is the one that i want to go away from once again it's the fear factor when the definitely the target of the gun lobby you don't kill them when you're killing money but if somebody would you would just prefer. i'm noticing more and more and that's really scary marketing tactics which implies that women have some sort of moral obligation to protect their family and young girls shoot out here too so we do have a pink or. more kids young kids choke on food than are killed by firearms if being armed made us safer in america we should be the safest nation on earth were clearly not the safest.

right on the scene. first for you and i think that you're. on our reporters twitter. and instagram. to be in the know. if you look before that to see that somebody is manipulating it the bruises the palestinians is. deliberate torch is on it's a big journey to such. one hundred and twenty three days. through two thousand nine hundred towns and cities of russia. relayed by fourteen thousand

people or sixty five thousand killings. in a record setting trip by land air sea an outer space. a limp a torch relay. on r t r g dot com. we're not psyched to active camps. where patients are worse. after a mouse or strike never turn world's attention to the point that some. of our minds

. we are not blind and i don't think we're stupid the us shrugs off israel's condemnation of a proposed nuclear agreement with iran as tensions among. progress and elusive deal . big money big trouble brussels negotiates a free trade deal with the u.s. that could mean billions in profit but critics say it will ruin european democracy and make corporations more powerful than governments plus. it would be torture to successfully return to earth after a historic trip and now the longest torch relay in olympic history is set to continue we'll bring you the details.
