班戈, 緬因 (八月 20, 2018) - 新英格蘭戰鬥 (NEF) will hold its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 35: Wicked Season,” 九月 8 at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor. 今天早些時候，, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional middleweight bout to the card. Crowsneck布廷 (2-3) will return to the cage to take on 標記 “Pockets” Gardner (0-0) 在185磅重的戰鬥.

 

 

 

It will have been two years almost to the day since Boutin last competed in the NEF cage. That September night in 2016 he was defeated by Jesse Erickson (9-7) 在 “NEF 25.” 自那時以來，, Boutin has become an instructor with a new team, Bad Little Falls Dojo, based in Machias, Maine and has concentrated on raising his young daughter. He will look to recapture the glory of his 2014 season when he went 3-0, including two first-round knockouts, in the NEF cage and was voted “年度戰鬥機” by fans.

 

 

 

“I am blessed with this opportunity to go to war inside the NEF cage,” 說布廷. “Past two years, I’ve been fighting for my sweet princess, Iola Soule. I possess new light, and I’d whoop the old me’s ass. I am still aboard this ride. I am a revenant.”

 

 

 

Mark Gardner has had a stellar first year with NEF. 去年十一月, he debuted with a second-round technical knockout of Carlton Charles (2-2) 在 “NEF 31。” He would follow up that success with a pair of first-round finishes this year, including a submission victory by arm bar earlier this summer at “NEF 34.” 在所有, he finished his amateur career a perfect 3-0. Gardner is a product of the Academy of Mixed Martial Arts based in Portland, 緬因.

 

 

 

“I can’t wait to fight Crowsneck in September,” said Gardner. “To be able to make my pro debut so soon after three good fights is pretty rad. I’ve been training hard for this and I can’t wait to see it pay off in there.”
