Lewiston, Maine (August 31, 2015) - New Ingarangi whawhai (Nef), Tau-kotahi whakatairanga whawhai rohe Amerika o, Ka mau i ona tekau ma iwa whakauru-hōia-toi (MMA) takahanga, “NEF XIX,” i runga i Rāhoroi, Mahuru 12, 2015 i te Androscoggin Bank Colisée i Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature two amateur women’s bouts. Angela Young (0-0) o te MMA o Young i roto i te Bangor whakaritea ki te hanga ia tuatahi ki Rahera Reinheimer (1-0) from team Sityodtong. Young’s teammate Kira Innocenti (0-0) Kei te whakaritea hoki ki te hanga ia tuatahi ki Hana Sparrell (0-0) i Tuatahi Class MMA i Brunswick.

 

Ko Angela Young te wahine o Chris Young – owner and founder of Young’s MMA. She views her debut fight as a way of testing herself.

 

It’s important for me to test myself,” ka mea Young, “e kore anake i roto i te whare herehere maiMahuru 12, but also through the fight that’s happened the last eight weeks leading up to the NEF event. I feel the fight is essentially a showcase and representation of the grueling training sessions and endless hours in the gym that took place prior to fight night. Living the MMA lifestyle to me meant more than diet modifications and strict training schedules. Athletically, ko reira atu e pā ana kātaki i roto i te mau fifi, me aki oku rohe rite i te whakataetae i roto i te ara kihai i i i whakamatautauria. Ko te pā ana ki ata mohiotia ki ahau, oku kaiako me oku hoa tākaro i roaa e ahau toku tika ki te manga i roto i te whare herehere.”

 

Hea i roto i te wahine mua kua parea ki te mataraharaha, me te minamina ana wahi o ngā hākinakina whawhai, rite mekemeke, e kore kua MMA wahine a ara anake ki te rite tahi te mana ki a te tangata MMA, te mea, i roto i te tahi mau rave'a, surpassed it. One has to look only to the highest level of the sport to see this trend. Women’s fights are now routinely present on the main cards of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The promotion’s top star, me ona kaipara rawa utua, Ko o ona wahine whā toa Ronda Rousey (12-0). The women competing on the September 12 ka hei kāri i te aronga o te kaupapa ki te whakawhānui i ngā whai wāhitanga mō wahine i te taumata-rohe.

 

“E kore he tino rerekē atu i te mea mo te tangata MMA mō wahine,” kī Young. “Oia mau, MMA Ko te hākinakina nuinga tane, but successful women in the MMA world are on the rise. Na roto i tenei puni whawhai ua uiui e ahau, sparred a nonoke ana raua kapa whawhai a te Feia Apî MMA me kua ratou unrelentingly tautoko. Te riroraa tetahi te whawhai wahine tuatahi o roto o Young o tino nei ona tenge (me te mali ki Mr. Young) but it’s also a spotlight I’m hoping will inspire other women who otherwise wouldn’t have pursued MMA. I would bet the women’s fights on September 12th won’t be unlike the others we’ve seen at prior NEF events. Titau ahau nga wahine ki te hoatu i runga i te whakaatu nui no te e tatou i te tahi mea ki te whakamatau. Kua waiho e ahau te toto, werawera me te roimata ki te whakangungu, me te koe pai whakapono ka whakaatu ahau ki oku hoariri mahi te taua. E te mea, nga wahine e haere ana ki te haere mai i muri i ki reira whakato ratou tĭtĭ i roto i te whare herehere NEF.”

 

Hoa tākaro o rua Young, Kira Innocenti, me te nei tona hoariri i “NEF XIX,” Rahera Reinheimer, titiro ki te whakaae ki te whakaaro a Young i runga i te tupu tere o MMA o te wahine.

 

“Ko Women o MMA i runga i te ara,” Said Innocenti. “Haapii ia ako te wahine te tahi mea e kore ia e mohio e pā ana ia. Kua kite ahau i hanga reira te ti'aturiraa i roto i ahau, me te tini ke atu. Ko te atu wahine i runga i nga whariki, the better. Fans can expect my teammate, Angie, a ki ahau hoatu te reira i to tatou katoa, me te haere ki te whawhai kia rite ki noa te toa tane i MMA o Young e rave. Kua mahi matou pakeke ki te tohu i to tatou omaoma. Ka whawhai matou ki te whakakake, weriweri, a ki te koki kaha titiro atu hoki ia tatou. Ka taea e ahau haapapû atu ia outou e, e pāngia te wahine a fakangalongata'a.”

 

“Women o MMA he tika rite he hākinakina tetahi atu,” kī Reinheimer o Everett, Massachusetts. “Ehara i te he kiriata mahi i reira rere te hero ki te ngahere ki te toru nga ra te whakangungu ki te ariki toi hōia, me te ka patu te ope katoa. Ehara i te he whawhai pae. Ehara i te he pehipehi kūiti hoki. Enei wahine he kaitäkaro nui nei whakangungu ata mo tau mā te whakamahi i te whakangungu pai, taputapu me ngā rauemi e wātea ana. Women nei whakataetae i roto i te hākinakina whawhai fakamoleki mano o haora o te toto, werawera me te roimata te tino ratou hākinakina. Hanga ana e ratou patunga tapu. I tua atu, reira ture me ngā tepe wā me whakatūpatotanga haumaru e. A, no te tangata he tauhou ki te whakaaro o MMA o te wahine, Whakarite e ahau ki te mekemeke taiapa ranei, something else that people are more familiar with. The pool of women fighters in New England is deepening fast and the fact that there are more women’s bouts on fight cards reflects that. Toku hoariri, me te ahau he i nui e rua, puni pukumahi. He whaea e rua matou, a e te reira te rota o te faaotiraa, me te puku ki te mahi i tēnei hākinakina i te hunga maminga, mahi me ngā tamariki. Kua mahi ahau i kaha ki taku rōpū mai i toku whawhai whakamutunga ki te whakapai ake i toku kēmu i roto i nga āhuatanga. Na mauruuru no te whakangungu mīharo me hoa tākaro i Sityodtong e pana ahau kia pakeke ahau. I te Mahuru 12, Ka taea e koe e mahara he whawhai.”

 

Te nuinga o te taata, e rua nga tangata me nga wahine, who join MMA gyms do not do so initially intending to become an active cage fighter. On any given day, one can walk into any MMA gym and find a diverse population of trainees. Men and women, tawhito, e te taitamariki, kara puru, me te kara ma, all train side by side. Most will never step foot in a cage in front of thousands of screaming fans. Most are there to get in shape or learn self-defense. Some, Heoi, E ngaua e te bug whakataetae.

 

“I whakaurua e ahau ki te ao MMA i muri i te hainatanga taku tamahine ki he ngaahi kalasi Jiu Jitsu te whakaaro 'e' aonga ki a ia mo whai wāhi i roto i te hākinakina te āhuatanga korero whaiaro,” haamana'o Hanna Sparrell. “I ahau i tiaki rite hinga ia i roto i te aroha ki te kēmu, whiwhi kaha me te māia, and was quick to decide that it was something I needed to be doing too. It didn’t take long before I fell in love with Jiu Jitsu myself, a ka mutunga hiahia ki te tūhura i te tahi atu mau tuhaa o te ao MMA. Te riroraa i roto i te omaoma hei kua he whare tuarua mo ahau me taku tamahine, oku hoa whakangungu, a second family. Every day I walk through the doors of the gym is a test, te reira i te tamataraa o te tākaro, me te pai, hei whakamatautau ano i te puku hinengaro, ā-whatumanawa. Mai i whakaurua ki te ao toi hōia whakauru kua hoatu e ahau toku tinana, ngakau, me te wairua ki te whakangungu, a whakataetae i roto i tenei a'ee he nui ki ahau mo te maha ngā take, e kore anake ki te tohu ahau me toku mahi pakeke, engari ki te hoki tohu katoa te mahi pakeke, fakatapui, me te faaitoitoraa i riro mai i ahau i oku hoa, e tohutohu ana, hoa whakangungu, and fellow fighters along the way. I think MMA training for woman is a great outlet for many reasons, te reira i te pae tino ko te īngoa nui, a ka he ano hoki he ahua pai o "therapy" i te mutunga o te ra pea taumaha. I ahau he tini nga wahine whakangungu ahau ki, e kore e whakamahere i katoa o ratou i runga i whawhai, engari nga painga o te hākinakina e tonu i reira, a ka aroha ratou i te reira noa te taua.”

 

Innocenti, rite maha, ka whai wāhi i roto i te hākinakina whawhai rite te ara ki te tiki i roto i, a noho i roto i, shape. Little did she know when her journey started some two years ago that it would take her into an MMA cage with thousands watching her compete.

 

“Te whakamatautau i ahau i roto i te a'ee toi hōia whakauru he nui ki ahau i roto i maha i te pā. E rua tau ki muri, Ko ahau te taumaha, me te aro ki te kitea he hauora, ara fakahoko. Kotahi ra, Ara ahau ki runga ka mau ki te ora i nga kingi, i roto i te hawhe tau, ngaro e ono tekau pauna i runga i toku ake. Pōwhiritia ahau e wero, muri, e ua hinaaro te tahi. Arona “He whakangungu” Lacey korerotia ki ahau e pā ana ki MMA o Young, a meinga ana e ahau ki te taki i te reira i roto i. I muri takahi i roto i te tatau, tamata i katoa o te akomanga, me te whakatutuki i te whānau nei i hanga te reira na motuhake, I potae, ahau. Hanga e ahau te reira i te opuaraa ia kia kotahi te whawhai wahine tuatahi i runga i te rōpū whawhai Ninety tino whaimana i roto New England o. Kua tonu ahau i te kaiwhakataetae. He pārekareka ki ahau wero ahau me aki rohe e whakaaro ki te e taea ki te whakatutuki i. Te oraraa i te āhua toi hōia whakauru he uaua. E titau te reira nui atu fakatapui atu ahau ake whakaaro taea. Wawahi te reira koutou ka hanga i a koutou hoki ki te tangata e koe pono e. He mea nui tenei whawhai, no te mea kua pahuatia ano e ahau ki te kapa mīharo i toku taha whakaako e te i te kaiako te nuinga o whakaihiihi me te akiaki. Ko ahau fakapapau'i ki te hanga whakakake ratou, ka whakawhetai ki a ratou ki toku ringa i ara.”

 

“Mixed Arts ko te whakamātautau hopea o te wairua o te tangata i runga i nga taumata: te pae tino, hinengaro, , ā-waiora,” Na ka mea a Reinheimer. “I ahau i te hiahia tahu ki te mohio pehea te tawhiti e taea e ahau te haere. I like exceeding expectations and pushing my limits and that’s MMA in a nutshell. Since I started training in martial arts, hei toku ora, kua rohe-iti. Kua pai ake toku ora toku ora i runga i te whāriki atu te whāriki me te hurihia. Ngā huia te reira atu i te mau faaoaoaraa faufaa katoa me maturuturu iho ana aku ora ki raro, ki te mea faufaa tino, i roto i a roto o te whakakai. Ite e ahau kia rite ki ngā tauturu te reira riro ahau nui ofi ki toku whaiaro tūturu. Ko te te pai o toi hōia tahito, me te ora hou.”

 

O nga wahine e wha whawhai i runga i te “NEF XIX” kāri, only Reinheimer has actively competed in the past. She dominated her opponent this past spring on her way to a unanimous decision victory in her debut. All of the women fighting on September 12 i roto i te Lewiston e oaoa no te rave'a.

 

“NEF Ko te whakatairanga totoka ki te ingoa nui,” Na ka mea a Reinheimer. “I was a spectator at their very first fight card back in 2012. I love Maine and the crowd is awesome there. E kore e taea e ahau tatari!”

 

“Whakaaro ahau e taea e te pā e titau i te whakaatu nui pono,” ka mea Sparrell. “More maha atu i te kore i kï whawhai nga wahine a ki te kia tino ngahau, e hiahia ana o te akoranga tatou ki faaite ua ti'amâ tatou i roto i tenei hākinakina paitia tane-te nuinga. Ko te tuatahi hoki e toru i roto o wha o nga wahine i runga i tenei kāri tenei, na e mohio ana ahau ki reira kei te haere ki te waiho i te rota o te ngakau, me te faaotiraa maka ki enei whawhai. E mohio ana ahau ki, fakatāutaha, Ko ahau rawa fiefia ki te tohu! I couldn’t be more excited to be making my MMA debut in the NEF cage; I ahau i tiaki pera maha nga whawhai ngākaunui ahau o ka titiro ake ki roto i tenei hākinakina i te turanga o te Androscoggin Bank Colisée, i te whai wāhi ki te inaianei hei i roto i reira ki a ratou tino ko te honore pono.”

 

“Ka rite ki Mahuru 12 tere whakatata, Au hoko e ahau ake oaoa, me te rite ki te tiki i roto i te whare herehere,” ka mea Young. “Kua tēnei rawa i te haere, me te mauruuru nei au no te rave'a o te toku tuatahi MMA amateur ki te NEF.”

 

“Ahau miharo ki te hanga i toku tuatahi MMA ki te NEF i runga i Mahuru 12 ahau,” Said Innocenti. “Kua mahi ahau kaha ki te tiki i tenei faingamālie me ahau oaoa kua tae mai e te wa e ahau.”

Harvey Waitohungia te whawhai ki te mutu TE DIBARTOLOMEO

Kia tukuna tonutia atu: Lewiston, Maine (August 21, 2015) - New Ingarangi whawhai (Nef), Tau-kotahi whakatairanga whawhai rohe Amerika o, Ka mau i ona tekau ma iwa whakauru-hōia-toi (MMA) takahanga, “NEF XIX: Ho'iraa,” i runga i Rāhoroi, Mahuru 12, 2015 i te Androscoggin Bank Colisée i Lewiston, Maine. Headlining the amateur portion of the fight card will be Josh Harvey (4-1) te parururaa i te Ingoa NEF MMA Amateur Kōmāmā ki Ryan Dibartolomeo(4-3). Aita i maoro a'e, Harvey ko te āheinga o NEF tahi-rangatira, me te matchmaker Matt Peterson i runga i te NEF Podcast.

 

Harvey was introduced to the mats early in life. He started wrestling in junior high school and continued through his high school years. He began boxing at the age of 15 and trained in the ring for the next seven years. It was not until he attended “NEF VIII: Iwi tuki” i roto i te Bangor i ite Harvey i taea e ia te he kaha'ú i te hākinakina o MMA.

 

“A, no te haere mai NEF ki Bangor ka titiro ahau Ray Wood hopu i te taitara, ka mahara ia e ahau i te mamau kura nui, Ko e toku cue ki te tiki i roto i runga i tenei,” Said Harvey. “I knew it was a true possibility to go somewhere in MMA. I muri i te kāreti, there’s nowhere for wrestlers to go. MMA, that’s the outlet. That’s why you see wrestlers dominating in MMA all the way to the top.

 

Aita i maoro i muri i te hui, then Young’s MMA wrestling coach Mark Heathcote reached out to Harvey through Facebook to invite him to train with the team. Harvey quickly found a home at the Bangor gym founded by Chris Young. He joined in on the massive success the team had already found in the MMA cages of New England.

 

“I oha ahau rawa māfana i Young o,” Harvey recalled. “Everyone was very kind over there. Bruce (Boyington, MMA NEF nāianei Ngaio Kōmāmā Champion) Ko te tangata tuatahi ki te tango i ahau, e kore e ki te mea i raro i tona parirau, but to get together outside of the gym and we became friends. As far as the success Young’s has had as a team, E kore ahau ka whaikupu mea e taea e tioka e koe i te reira katoa ki runga ki te tohutohu pai, engari kua ka tatou i te pai a tawhio noa, i te iti rawa i roto i tenei āhua, pea i roto i te New England.”

 

I runga i tona ara ki te kī i te NEF MMA Amateur Kōmāmā Championship i tenei Pipiri mua, Harvey finished all three of his NEF opponents in a total of just over three minutes. Harvey, Heoi, kite tona heke mai i roto i te hākinakina i roto i te wehenga tekau mā.

 

“E kore ahau e ako ki te whakaoti ia ratou katoa i roto i te taka noa tuatahi,” Said Harvey. “That’s just how it wound up. Maybe you’ll see me go the distance as the competition gets thicker. That’s why I love this fight with Ryan (Dibartolomeo). Ko ia, Whakapono ana ahau, tau-rua runga, so this is a good way to find out where I lay in that level. I’m not a 55er. As far as I’m concerned, I’m a 45er that’s fighting at 55. Best 45er? Amateur in New England? Ae. The game’s gonna change when I go professional. We’ll see where I stack up there.

 

A, no te timata Harvey matapaki pūmanawa hoariri mo “NEF XIX” ki te matchmakers NEF, he was very clear that he wanted the toughest opponent they could find for him. If he wanted tough, he will get just that in Ryan Dibartolomeo. Dibartolomeo is out of John Fain’s Team Triumph/Boston BJJ of Nashua, New Hampshire. After dropping his first three, Kua riro Dibartolomeo tona wha whawhai whakamutunga i roto i te rarangi, he pūkenga faahiahia i timata i “NEF X” i roto i te Mahuru 2013.

 

“Ana whawhai katoa i ngā riro ia i te taha o te whakatau,” Said Harvey. “I roto i toku ngakau, he let the judges win those fights for him. Fights aren’t won by judges. Fights are won by fighters. My prediction is it’s gonna be a finish. I’m gonna go out there, kill or be killed. He’s either gonna finish me or I’m gonna finish him. That’s how it’s gonna happen.
