2017 ROOKIE STANDOUTS WILL BATTLE IN FIRST NEF EVENT OF NEW YEAR
POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE: Lewiston, Maine (Novembre 30, 2017) - Combats Nouvelle-Angleterre (NEF) retourne à LewistonSamedi, Février 3, 2018 avec prochain événement mixte martiaux d'arts de la promotion de la lutte, “NEF 32: Super Samedi.” Plus tôt aujourd'hui,, NEF announced the addition of an amateur middleweight bout to the card. Josh Jones (2-2) doit se réunir Marc Gardner (1-0) à un poids de combat de 185 livres-.
Josh Jones’ rise to the top of the NEF middleweight division in 2017 was nothing short of meteoric. A former basketball star at Erskine Academy in South China, Maine and draftee of the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the NBA Developmental League, Jones has honed his craft in the martial arts at First Class MMA of Brunswick. It took him a mere 24-seconds combined to knock out his first two opponents this past year. Jones’ four-second knockout of Anthony Spires (0-3) went viral worldwide and was featured on major websites like Bleacher Report. After back-to-back losses to finish the year, Jones is looking to rebound with a win to open 2018.
“I am very honored and blessed to have the opportunity to compete against Mark,” dit Jones. “Mark has shown to be an awesome competitor. I look forward to the challenge on February 3rd. As an MMA fighter and competitor, it is always a privilege to step into the cage and perform under the lights for New England Fights.”
Mark Gardner made his debut in the NEF cage earlier this month in Portland. Gardner faced another up-and-coming middleweight in the form of Carlton Charles (1-1). L'été dernier, it was Charles who handed Josh Jones his first loss. Gardner impressed many in attendance with his gutsy performance against Charles. He had an answer for everything Charles threw at him early in the fight, dispatching Charles in the second round by technical knockout. For those who have followed Maine combat sports for some time, Gardner’s toughness comes as no surprise. His gritty, workmanlike style has been the hallmark of his team, the Academy of MMA in Portland, for many years.
“I’m excited to get back in the cage for my next fight,” declared Gardner. “I learned a lot from my first fight and have been working on my technique. I can’t say much about my opponent, I don’t really know anything about him – I just fight who my coach tells me to fight.”
prochain événement mixte arts martiaux de NEF, “NEF 32: Super Samedi,” verra la société faire son retour à la Androscoggin Bank Colisee à Lewiston, Maine. The event is scheduled to take place on Samedi, Février 3, 2018. Les billets sont en vente en ligne àwww.TheColisee.com.

MOUNTAIN VALLEY WRESTLING ALUM TO MEET IN NEF MMA CAGE
Lewiston, Maine (Novembre 29, 2017) - Combats Nouvelle-Angleterre (NEF) retourne à Lewiston Samedi, Février 3, 2018 avec prochain événement mixte martiaux d'arts de la promotion de la lutte, “NEF 32: Super Samedi.” Plus tôt aujourd'hui,, NEF announced the addition of an amateur flyweight bout to the card. Ryan Burgess (2-2) fera face Nate Boucher (2-1) à un poids de combat de 125 livres-.
Ryan Burgess is wrestling royalty at his alma mater, Montagne Valley High School, in Rumford, Maine. Burgess is one of only four Mountain Valley wrestlers to ever win triple state crowns in wrestling. He amassed an amazing 151-23 overall high school record before graduating and turning his focus to mixed martial arts. He is currently a member of Berserkers MMA based in Rumford. Burgess is the former NEF amateur flyweight champion. NEF 32 will see him return to the cage after a year’s absence.
“I’m very excited for this opportunity to get back in the cage,” Saïd Burgess. “I’ve taken some time off to make proper adjustments and focus on my career that started not long before my last fight. I’m ready to take my belt back and right now only one guy stands in my way. It’s not every day you can go to an MMA fight and watch two men who saw each other grow up scrap. Comme February 3rd, Nate, we will see what you’re made of.”
Nate Boucher began wrestling at five-years old and due to some off-the-mat issues, never achieved the high school statistics of his upcoming adversary, Bourgeois. Cependant, Boucher’s wrestling skills were on full display back in August 2017at NEF 30 when he defeated Maine wrestling legend and four-time state champion Jeremiah Barkac (0-1) par soumission au premier tour. Boucher, who grew-up admiring Burgess’ prowess on the mat, is anxious to test himself against such a decorated grappler and prove that his wrestling stands up against the best. He will be looking to rebound from a split decision loss to Justin Witham (4-4) earlier this month in an unsuccessful bid for the vacant flyweight title. It was a fight many in attendance felt Boucher had won.
“The disappointment of the decision going against me on November 3rd still stings,” said Boucher. “I’m confident that I beat Justin Witham that night, even though two of the three judges didn’t see it that way. Si, I’m going to get right back on the horse—it’s what we do—and take on the guy that holds a win over Witham in Ryan Burgess. I grew-up watching Ryan wrestle. We’re from the same town and I know what he brings to the fight. je serai prêt. I’m coming for my title and no one is going to get in my way.”
