Japanese mixed martial arts promotion RIZIN FF will host a 16-man openweight tournament starting Sept. 25 in Tokyo, and two formerly retired legends are scheduled to compete, an official told ESPN.Former PRIDE Grand Prix champion Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic and former PRIDE middleweight champion Wanderlei Silva have both agreed to participate in the tournament, the official said.The tournament will take place over the course of three dates: Sept. 25, Dec. 29 and Dec. 31. The rest of the field is expected to be announced soon.Filipovic (31-11-2) is still serving a two-year suspension after admitting he used human growth hormone to the United States Anti-Doping Agency in November 2015. The suspension applies to Filipovics career in the UFC, the promotion for which he was competing at the time his sanction began.That suspension prohibits him from fighting in the UFC, but not from a RIZIN competition in Japan. According to RIZIN officials, Filipovic secured his contractual release from the UFC in order to participate in the tournament. On Friday, UFC officials did not respond to a request for confirmation.Silva (35-12-1), 40, will be one of four tournament participants to receive a bye in the opening round. He successfully negotiated his release from the UFC in January.Cheap Jerseys 2020 . Louis Blues absence from top spot in the TSN. China Jerseys 2020 .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one.

In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Fake Nike NFL Jerseys .J. Ellis hit two-run homers and the NL West champion Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Diego Padres 4-0 Saturday night.ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Trevor Siemians biggest takeaway from his career-best performance wasnt the masterpiece of pinpoint passes in the face of heavy pressure but a sprained left foot he suffered on one of five sacks.It will sideline him this weekend.The Denver Broncos ruled out Siemian for Sundays game at Jacksonville, meaning rookie Paxton Lynch will make his second career start.Siemian had hoped to return to practice Friday but head athletic trainer Steve Antonopulos informed coach Gary Kubiak his starter wasnt ready.Hell be in a walking boot Sunday when the Broncos (7-4) turn to Lynch, who lost his debut eight weeks ago, against the Jaguars (2-9).The Broncos are scrambling for a playoff spot after their loss to Kansas City in which Siemian threw for a career-best 368 yards with three TDs and no interceptions. He was injured on his last sack, when Tamba Hali powered past Russell Okung to drop the second-year QB.The Broncos are hopeful Siemian returns next week when they travel to Tennessee.I think its still a day to day process, Kubiak said. When we tried to get him going a little bit today we realized it was time to go ahead and make a decision to start Lynch this weekend.Lynch lost to Atlanta in Week 5 when Siemian was out with a bruised left shoulder. Lynch, a first-round pick out of Memphis, had a poor performance against the Falcons, and four days later, Siemian was back in the lineup at San Diego even though he lacked mobility and zip on his throws.Siemian finally returned to health last week following the bye, when he was able to get some rest and a second injection in his non-throwing shoulder.Now hes hurt again.Kubiak said Lynch had a good week of practice but stressed we need to play good around him. Thats our job as a football team, to help him out.So, expect to see Lynch in the shotgun a lot Sunday. Hes much more comfortable there rather than under center, where the Broncos have him lining up with one foot farther back to help with his raw footwork.Siemian won the job in camp in big part because he can digest Kubiaks entire West Coast offense while Lynch is limited after operating such a basic spread offense in college.The coaching staffs message to Lynch is more go winn the game than go win the job.ddddddddddddhe biggest thing is to not overload him too much, let him be free and play. And like I said, the key is the football team playing well around him, Kubiak said.Lynch said Friday hes glad hes gotten his first game and the accompanying butterflies out of the way already: It feels good to have game reps under your belt and Im excited to go get another one, he said.Siemian will make the trip although he might sit in the coaches box with offensive coordinator Rick Dennison rather than stand on the sideline because of the boot.The Broncos also promoted speedy wide receiver/punt returner Kalif Raymond from the practice squad with rookie fullback Andy Janovich (ankle) going on injured reserve.Raymond could supplant Jordan Norwood as the Broncos punt returner. Norwood had two muffs last week, one of which led to a safety and the other to a turnover at midfield and a shove in the back from teammate Aqib Talib.Kubiak wouldnt commit to a change at punt returner, saying only that Raymond would play.Really its a reward more than anything. I mean, this kid does everything, scout team, theres not a rep he misses, whether hes playing DB, wide receiver. So, he deserves an opportunity to help us out, Kubiak said.His speed is just crazy, said Lynch, who has worked with Raymond on the scout team.Raymond, an undrafted rookie from Holy Cross, was promoted five days after the Broncos watched another speedster, Tyreek Hill, score against them on a rush, a reception and a return.Raymond aims to give the Broncos a similar spark.With my size and stature, speed is one of my assets, said Raymond, whos 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds. If I can make that impact from a speed standpoint, thats what I plan to do.Although receiver Bennie Fowler (knee) is out for Sunday, Raymonds promotion gives the Broncos an astonishing eight wide receivers on their active roster to go with two long snappers and just five D-linemen.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton ' ' '
