FEATHERWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

发表评论

 

路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 21, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the fight card. The matchup will feature 杰里米·泰勒 (4-3) 面对 约翰尼工艺品 (3-0) at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds.

 

Jeremy Tyler will be making his return to the NEF cage after an extended absence of nine months. A member of Marcus Davis’s famed Team Irish gym in Brewer, 缅因, Tyler will look to rebound from the first back-to-back losses of his career. Both of those losses came to Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) 竞争者. It is a gym affiliated with Johnny Crafts’ team New England United (NEW), so the 六月 13 fight will be an opportunity for Jeremy to gain a measure of revenge as well. Like his opponent at “NEF XVIII,” Tyler has proven himself a submission specialist with all four of his victories coming by way of capitulation.

 

“I’m very excited to be stepping into the NEF cage for the first time in 2015,” said Tyler. “I am looking forward to the opportunity to fight John Crafts who is a highly ranked MMA fighter with a very good Jiu Jitsu game. I believe the NEF fans will be very happy with the match-up and feel this will make for an entertaining fight. Expect to see an improved performance from me. I took some time off after my last fight to focus, build upon my technique and add to my overall skill sets. I am ready to unleash the game I’ve been developing in the cage so 6月13日 can’t get here fast enough.”

 

Originally scheduled to challenge for the NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Championship at “NEF XVIII,” Johnny Crafts was left without a fight after his original opponent pulled out due to injury. That was until Jeremy Tyler stepped up to the challenge this week. This fight will mark the first time Johnny Crafts, who holds a brown belt in BJJ, has competed above the bantamweight limit of 135-pounds. Crafts was voted the “2014 年度最佳新秀” by NEF fans.

 

“I’m very excited to be fighting Jeremy Tyler,” said Crafts. “He’s a well-rounded fighter with good experience. I’m looking to test the waters at 145 for my first time and see how I feel fighting up. I was pretty disappointed in the title fight falling through, but I assure everyone that this fight will be just as exciting to watch.”

 

门票 “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA” 开始只是 $25 而在销售现在 www.TheColisee.com or by calling the Colisee box office at 207.783.2009 X 525. 有关事件，并拼牌更新的详细信息, 请访问推广的网站 www.NewEnglandFights.com. 此外, 你可以在观看视频NEF www.youtube.com/NEFMMA, 按照他们的Twitter @nefights并加入官方Facebook集团“新英格兰战斗。”

BIG-TIME BOXING RETURNS TO BOSTON ON SATURDAY, MAY 23 WITH PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS ON NBC

发表评论

TAKE A LOOK BACK AT BOSTON’S RICH BOXING HISTORY

波士顿 (五月 20, 2015) – Boston is known for being home to some of the most passionate sports fans in the country, but many may not know that it is also a city that has had a long and rich history with the sweet science. 上 星期六, 五月 23, world championship boxing is officially back in Beantown when 总理拳击冠军 上 NBC returns with a showdown between 安德烈Dirrell 和 詹姆斯DeGale at Boston University’s Agganis Arena with coverage on NBC beginning at 4:30 P.M. AND/1:30 P.M. PT.

 

The last time Boston saw a world championship fight was May 23, 2006 when two world title fights took place at TD Bank Garden, formerly the Boston Garden. That night saw British superstar 瑞奇 “杀手” 哈顿 败 路易斯·科拉佐 in a welterweight world title fight, 而 埃里克·艾肯 心烦此前不败 Valdemir Pereira for a featherweight world title.

“Fighting in the Boston Garden was a great honor, never mind in a world title fight, but even a four rounder,” 说 托尼·德马科, who won the welterweight world title in 1955 at the Boston Garden. “I had more fights there than anybody (28), including my pro debut. It’s always good fighting at home. You’re more comfortable at home. The fans know and honor you. Boston fans were real fight fans.”

 

Boston has been deeply invested in boxing since the early 20日 世纪. 从 1902-1908 the small town of Chelsea that borders Boston became the mecca for boxing as the sport was banned throughout most of America. 然而, Chelsea had a special ordinance that legalized boxing. It was during this time that Jack Johnson was faced with what he admitted was the toughest fight of his career, when he defended his heavyweight title against Sam Langford on April 6, 1906. Johnson won by a 15-round unanimous decision and refused to fight Langford again.

 

此外, Fenway Park, famed home of the Boston Red Sox, 托管 29 professional boxing cards between 1919 和 1956. Beyond just hosting big fights, Boston has also produced a slew of Hall of Fame talent who were either born in Massachusetts or called the state home.

 

Noteworthy names include Roxbury heavyweight champions John L. 沙利文, Brockton heavyweight 洛矶马尔恰诺and Brockton resident and middleweight champion 奇妙的马文·哈格勒. Boston’s own featherweight champions桑迪萨德勒 和 乔治·狄克逊 plus Boston promoter Rip Valenti have all been enshrined in the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

 

“Fighting in Boston was a great experience,” 说 约翰·鲁伊斯, a two-time heavyweight world champion from Chelsea. “Like any sport, Boston sports fans are true fans who follow your progress. I could feel their emotion wherever I fought. I will never forget them. I fought in Las Vegas a lot and there were always Boston fans there supporting me. I always appreciated them traveling all over the country to my fights.”

 

A father-son duo from Arlington, 质量. both had an impact on the heavyweight landscape decades after each other. 汤姆·麦克尼利 fought heavyweight world champion 弗洛伊德帕特森 在 1961 and dropped the champion before eventually succumbing to a fourth round knockout. 以上 30 多年后, 他的儿子 彼得 was the first man to fight 迈克·泰森 after he was released from prison, with the fight ending in McNeeley being disqualified.

 

One of the more unique athletes to come out of Boston, 博士. Wilbert “Skeeter” McClure was an Olympic Gold medalist, a doctor of psychology and a Massachusetts boxing commissioner. While at the 1960 奥运会, McClure served as the co-captain for Team USA and was the roommate of fellow gold medalist 卡修斯·克莱. While he never reached his potential as a professional, he received opportunities against world class opponents Luis Manuel Rodriguez 两次，何塞·托雷斯, losing all three by decision. He also lost a decision and fought to a draw against 鲁宾 “飓风” 卡特. After his professional boxing career, McClure served as a Massachusetts boxing commissioner before eventually retiring in the Boston area where he resides to this day.

 

Another greatly revered fighter to come out of the Boston-area is Lowell’s 米奇沃德. Hugely popular for his exciting style, Ward compiled a 38-13 亲记录 27 击倒. He was most known for the three epic fight of the year award-winning battles with the late Arturo Gatti. Ward’s life and career was portrayed in the award-winning film “The Fighter”, which starred Mark Wahlberg as Ward.
