559 Fights brings 50th event to Visalia

Skryf 'n opmerking

VISALIA, Kalifornië. – When 559 Fights first opened it’s cage doors to amateur mixed martial artist in 2012 the vision was simple – grow and develop local talent.

Op Vrydag, September2 at the Visalia Convention Center the locally-grown and operated MMA promotion will host it’s 50th event.

“When Joey (Perez), Mots (Jon Motsenbocker) and I sat down and started the idea of 559 gevegte, we knew that this day would come,"Sê 559 Fights president Jeremy Luchau. “Our goal from the beginning was not to have the biggest, brightest, fanciest, but rather to be the most consistent and give more opportunities for young, local amateurs to compete.”

Sedert 2012 559 Fights has hosted the California Amateur Mixed Martial Arts Organization State Championships, Northern California Regional Championships twice and had hundreds of competitors step foot in their cage.

“559 Fights has become the most consistent MMA platform in the country which is demonstrated by the vast number of rising professional stars that developed their talent in the 559 cage,” CAMO President JT Steele said.

559 Fights has produced events in 18 different venues over the past three years and in cities all across the Central Valley from Bakersfield to Fresno.

Kaartjies vir die 50ste event can be purchased at the Visalia Convention Center box office and start at just $25. Vir meer inligting besoek www.559fights.com

“Often times we’ve done things against the grain. We charge a much smaller ticket price than other shows throughout the country and we put together sometimes triple the events,"Luchau gesê. “We try our best to give these fighters and fans the best possible experience. We’ve fought in venues all over the Valley trying to promote mixed martial arts and our fighters to a variety of different communities.”

Long-time 559 Fights staple Visalia’s Jonathan DeLeon will headline the event in a Featherweight Title bout against Bakersfield’s David Mendoza. In die mede-hoofren, Visalia’s Steven Robinson takes on Ridgecrest’s Jacobo Longoria for the Welterweight Championship.

“There’s so many great amateurs throughout the Valley that it’s been really easy to showcase these fighters, get them the exposure that they need and have them move on to the professional level,"Luchau gesê. “We’ve had a large number of fighters essentially graduate from amateur ranks at 559 Fights and into the pro ranks.”

559 gevegte 50 will have over 10-action packed bouts.

IT WILL BE CHAMPION VS. CHAMPION ON SEPTEMBER 10 IN LEWISTON

Skryf 'n opmerking

Lewiston, Maine (Augustus 9, 2016) – In a rare occurrence, two champions from two different weight divisions will square off onSeptember 10, 2016 when New England Fights presents “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS” in Lewiston. Reigning NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Champion Johnny Crafts (4-0) will come up in weight to challenge Kaleb Hall (7-3) for Hall’s NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Title.

 

Caleb Hall was a two-time Maine state champion wrestling for Dirigo High School in Dixfield. He would go on to wrestle for Plymouth State University in New Hampshire, as well as the University of Southern Maine. Op “NEF 22” this past spring, Hall captured the vacant featherweight title by submitting Erik Nelson (2-3) in die tweede ronde. In the upcoming bout with Crafts, Hall will be looking to not only retain his title, but to also gain a measure of revenge against Crafts who defeated Hall’s teammate Henry Clark (3-2) laaste val.

 

“Johnny’s making a big mistake coming up in weight trying to take my belt,” said Hall. “I will avenge my teammate, Henry Clark, and put him away early.”

 

Johnny Crafts is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu brown belt with Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ). As mentioned, Crafts defeated Henry Clark of the Choi Institute last fall to claim the amateur bantamweight title. Op September 10, Crafts hopes to make history by becoming the first competitor to simultaneously hold two championships in two different weight divisions.

 

“I’m honestly just excited to get in there and have a brutal, fun fight,” gesê Crafts. “It’s going to be a guaranteed war versus Caleb. It’s less focus on cutting weight at 145 for me and more on the training camp. I’m going to be the most technical and strong I have ever been for this fight.”

 

volgende byeenkoms New England veg ', "NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS,” takes place on Saterdag, September 10, 2016 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. Tickets start at just $25 en is nou te koop by www.TheColisee.com of deur die Colisée loket by 207.783.2009 x 525. Tickets will also be available at the door the night of the event.

LAWTON GETS NEW OPPONENT ON BANGOR FIGHT CARD

Skryf 'n opmerking

Bangor, Maine (Julie 30, 2016) - Jarod “Last Minute” Lawton (4-2) has a new opponent this Friday night in Bangor at “NEF Presents Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight.” Lawton’s original opponent, Mike Hansen (4-4), pulled out of the middleweight contest with an injury just days before the start of fight week. NEF officials scoured the country for someone to step up on a mere week’s notice and face the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Lawton. Not an easy task, om die minste te sê. NEF matchmaker Matt Peterson was able to secure a replacement opponent in the form of David “Redneck” Mundell (5-1) of Dunedin, Florida.

Mundell is a purple belt fighting out of Gracie Clearwater. His only loss as a professional came in his last fight this past spring. In werklikheid, Mundell had not lost a single round in any of his previous five professional fights to that point. He is the reigning Florida State Professional MMA Welterweight Champion. Mundell held several titles in the amateur ranks before turning pro.

While most competitors would shy away from the prospect of facing a black belt on a week’s notice in front of UFC President Dana White, Mundell approaches the fight with a workmanlike outlook.

“It’s just another day at the office,” said Mundell when reached for comment.

“I am excited to still be a part of the show and thankful Dave Mundell was willing to step up on short notice to take the fight,” Said Lawton. “He is a well-rounded fighter, and I am expecting to put on one of the best fights of the night as always!”

volgende byeenkoms New England veg ', “NEF bied aan Dana White: Looking for a Fight” vind plaas op Vrydag, Augustus 5, 2016 at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor, Maine. Kaartjies is te koop nou op www.CrossInsuranceCenter.met of deur die loket te skakel by 800.745.3000.

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR TOP MAINE LIGHTWEIGHTS

Skryf 'n opmerking

Bangor, Maine (Julie 29, 2016) – Devin Powell was enjoying an evening off from his demanding life as a mixed martial arts instructor and fighter.

He was surrounded by food that probably isn’t on his normal training menu. There were celebratory beverages to fit the loud music and party atmosphere at Xfinity Center, the outdoor concert venue in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

Somehow, Powell heard his phone ring, or felt it vibrate in his pocket. The impending conversation altered his day-after plans considerably.

Powell accepted a return engagement with Jon Lemke at “NEF Presents Dana White: Looking for a Fight,” to be held Vrydag, Augustus 5 by Cross Insurance Centre in Bangor.

“I found out my good friend Jesse Erickson got hurt,” Powell said, “and they asked me to fill in. I said ‘of course.’ Anybody representing UFC, never mind Dana White, if you ever have a chance to fight in front of them, it’s something you want to do if you’re able. It should be a nice, intimate setting.”

Powell (7-1) is the NEF lightweight champion, having secured the strap with a technical knockout of Erickson at “NEF 22: All Roads Lead Here” in April. Lemke (5-5) lost to previous champion Bruce Boyington in a bid for that belt.

The fight will take place five pounds above the lightweight limit at a catch weight of 160.

“It’s a huge opportunity,” said Lemke, who lives in neighboring Brewer. “I’m very grateful. I’m looking forward to fighting in front of probably the most influential person in MMA.”

Their bout is one of eight professional skirmishes to be showcased in front of White, a native of nearby Hermon, and cohorts Din Thomas and Matt Serra. The trio travels the country in pursuit of undiscovered MMA talent in a reality show that is broadcast on White’s YouTube page as well as the UFC Fight Pass subscription-based streamed video service.

Neither man is known to shy away from the spotlight. Lemke stopped Erickson at Bellator 93 in Lewiston two years ago. Powell pushed his winning streak to five with a split-decision triumph Junie 17 over Tommy Marcellino on the World Series of Fighting stage at Foxwoods.

“I know they’re probably here to watch the guys in the main event,” Powell said of White and his entourage, “but I plan to put on a show that they won’t be able to sleep on. With my fighting style, very aggressive and unorthodox, I believe I definitely will get their attention. This sport is a lot about getting the right opportunity and taking advantage of it.”

When asked if he perceived any edge because Powell took the fight on three weeks’ notice, Lemke politely pointed out that he only began preparing for Erickson two weeks prior to that.

Lemke lost to Josh LaBerge op Junie 10.

“I only had a couple extra weeks to prepare. I was still training, but that’s all. I was in pretty good shape but not in fight shape,” Lemke said. “It’s one of those things where they ask you and you’re like, ‘Oh, een, I really want to do this, but.’ It’s just too big an opportunity not to. It’s not necessarily ideal, but as a fighter, absolutely you’re looking for that challenge, and Devin is one of the best guys in the game around here.”

He learned that first-hand, and in resounding fashion, when the two fighters previously clashed on May 10, 2014. Powell prevailed via choke-out in only 23 sekondes.

That setting was Lemke’s comeback fight after his abrupt withdrawal from a title match against John Ortolani eight months earlier.

“It didn’t go very well last time. There were a lot of distractions and different circumstances for me leading up to that fight. I had to pull out of a title fight before that, which you never want to do. Three-quarters of the battle for me was just getting back in the cage,” Lemke said.

“I’m a completely different fighter now,” he added. “I think I’ve progressed everywhere, not just with my skills but with the approach I take. I’ve had quite a few fights and I’ve learned from both the wins and the losses. You always learn. Sometimes you learn the hard way.”

Lemke and Powell each enter the cage for the fourth time in less than a year. That activity is the reason neither man feels uneasy about accepting such a stern challenge after an abbreviated training camp.

In Powell’s case, fighting is simply a natural extension of his everyday life as owner and head instructor at Nostos MMA in Somersworth, N.H.

“I’m grateful for everything I have. I have a 4-year-old daughter and she likes to come to the academy and train jiu-jitsu,” Powell said. “I have a pretty amazing life. I only have to teach, train and fight. A lot of people don’t get more than a couple hours with their kids every night. We sacrifice a lot for this sport. People only see the 15 minutes of hell. They don’t see everything else.”

Powell is pleased to represent NEF for only the third time in his blossoming career.

“NEF is one of the biggest promotions in the country. They make superstars out of guys from Maine,” Powell said. “I fought for World Series of Fighting, and I don’t want to sound like I’m knocking them, but it was a much smaller show. NEF has a huge following, and now you see them going places like Cape Cod and Bangor, and that can only grow it even more. They do it right, and I’m glad to be able to step in there for them.”

Lemke faces the added pressure of fighting in front of not only White but his hometown fans from the Bangor area.

Many of them are not accustomed to the four-hour round trip for his encounters in Lewiston.

“A fight is still just a fight, and the next fight is the biggest fight regardless. You never know who could be there watching or what could happen as a result,” Lemke said, suggesting that he is more concerned with his opponent. “Devin is a phenomenal fighter. He has a great skill set. He’s highly touted and he has a great record to back it up. It’s definitely the challenge of a lifetime for me. He’s also a great guy outside the cage. I get along with him well. I think we respect each other.”

Powell confirmed those suspicions, although he reiterated that his objective is nothing less than another decisive victory.

“He’s a good guy. I don’t have to go to that deep, dark place. I understand that my job is to hurt someone so badly that the referee has to step in to save his life. It’s a beautiful, violent sport. I respect anyone who has the courage to get in there with the same goals as me,” Powell said. “I’m expecting a brouhaha with Lemke. Hy is aggressief. He comes to fight. I like to do the same things. The first fight was short-lived. If I’m able to repeat that, I’m sure Dana White will be happy.”

JONG'S MMA HET TUISVELDE VOORDELE OP AUGUSTUS 5 IN BANGOR

Skryf 'n opmerking

Bangor, Maine (Julie 28, 2016) – Die toegewyde afvaardiging van Young se MMA van Bangor hou gewoonlik van hul reputasie as vegkrygers in die New England Fights.

Lewiston is lank gevestig as die middestad vir die organisasie, trek deelnemers en toeskouers uit albei rigtings op die Maine Turnpike. Vegters en aanhangers uit die Penobscotriviervallei vind dat vier tot vyf keer per jaar vir daardie vegkaarte verloof is, groter toewyding verg as die meeste.

Vir die tweede keer in sy geskiedenis, die plaaslike bevordering sal sy hok na die Queen City bring. “NEF bied aan: Dana White Lookin 'for a Fight' word beplan vir Vrydag, Augustus 5 by Cross Insurance Centre.

Young se, die gimnasium is net 'n paar blokke verder geleë 127 Hammondstraat, sal vier deur een van sy vegters in vier van die agt geskeduleerde beroepswedstryde ten toon te stel. Slaggetoets Ryan Sanders en relatiewe nuwelinge Aaron Lacey, Josh Harvey en CJ Ewer is almal gereed om hul beste skoot te neem met die ondersteuning van 'n skelm, partydige skare.

'Dit is die opwindendste deel vir my, afkomstig van Brewer. Ek het na Brewer High School gegaan,'Sê Lacey. 'Dit was beslis 'n reuse, groot trekking vir my, persoonlik te sien. Ek het geveg toe NEF by Darling's Waterfront Pavilion kom (Julie 12, 2013) en al wat ek kon dink, is, Die mens, Ek wil dit doen. 'Dit was al 'n lang doelwit van my.'

Sanders (10-7) sal teen Derrick Kennington veg (11-7) in 'n botsing van lelike liggewigte wat by die gewilde besienswaardighede op die dak sal wees.

Sy drie stalmate het elk gewen in hul enigste vorige pro-wedstryd. Lacey sal saam met John Santos sluit (3-3) van Derry, N.H., in 'n veergewig stryd. Harvey het 'n afspraak met veergewig. Ewer, wat 'n amateurwedstryd op die buitelugkonsertlokaal in Bangor gewen het, sal deur Ruben Redman getoets word (0-1) in 'n weltergewig afval.

Selfs met talle vriende wat bywoon, die vier mans weet dat dit die teenwoordigheid van White UFC-president is, wat in die nabygeleë Hermon grootgeword het, wat gevolge vir loopbaanveranderings kan hê.

'Dit is 'n wonderlike geleentheid. Dit is ongelooflik om te weet dat iemand soos 'n bakleiery in die gebou gaan wees,'Sê Sanders. 'Maar vir my is dit net nog 'n geveg. Ek wil nie in alles vasgevang raak nie. Laat dit net ontvou. ”

Wit en kohorte Din Thomas en Matt Serra reis die land in die strewe na onontdekte MMA-talent in 'n realiteitsprogram wat op White se YouTube-bladsy uitgesaai word, sowel as op die UFC Fight Pass-inskrywinggebaseerde gestroomde videodiens.

Ja, die Maine-verbindings van die entrepreneur is goed gedokumenteer. White het ook voorheen UFC Fight Night gebring 47 aan Bangor. Young se talentpoel vermoed dat die jongste byeenkoms meer is as net 'n geval dat White 'n been na sy tuisbasis gooi, egter.

'Ek is dankbaar dat hy dit hierheen gebring het. Ek is seker hy het in sy vrye tyd film uit NEF gekyk. Hy moet iets sien in NEF waarvan hy hou om dit te doen,'Het Harvey gesê. 'Dit maak my nie meer senuweeagtig nie. Ek is opgewonde, want dit. Ek gaan probeer om dit alles opsy te sit en op die taak te fokus. ”

Onder toesig van mede-eienaars Chris Young en Ernie Fitch, Ongeveer vyf of ses professionele persone en 'n dosyn amateurs fiets deur die gimnasium in enige gegewe oefenkamp.

'Vier van ons veg, dit wys net dat ons die beste gimnasium in die omgewing is. Drie van ons is onoorwonne. Ons produseer studs. Mense sien dit en wil oefen met die beste ouens wat hulle kan,'Sê Sanders. 'Ons druk mekaar beslis. Julle het ouens wat elke dag u gat skop. Ons wil die beste vir mekaar hê. Daarom is ons hier. ”

Harvey verwag dat die getalle en toewyding sal groei ná White se besoek. Hy oefen al drie jaar by Young's. Die hok se sysitplek by die waterkant het hom geïnspireer om sy eie oefenprogram te verhoog. Dit is 'n ingeboude voordeel, Harvey het opgemerk, wat tot nou toe byna uitsluitlik aan Lewiston behoort het.

'Dit is wat die meeste mense aan die gang kry. Hulle gaan kyk na die gevegte en wil dit probeer,'Het Harvey gesê. 'Daarom sien jy plekke soos Central Maine BJJ (Lewiston) en Eerste klas MMA (Topsham) groei so baie. Die gevegte is daar in hul agterplaas. ”

Lacey karakteriseer Young's as ''n gimnasium vol moordenaars'.

Die statistiek beklemtoon die punt van Lacey. Die drie prosesse met ongeplakte rekords het almal hul debuut gewen oor twee minute of minder.

“Ryan het net een keer in sy loopbaan besluit wat ek dink. Hy is 'n afwerking. Josh het sy stryd gewen in die eerste ronde. CJ is super sterk,'Sê Lacey. 'Hulle daag my uit om die beste te wees wat ek elke dag kan wees. Hulle hou my gefokus, nie net in die gimnasium nie, maar ook in die spel buite die hok. ”

Alhoewel hy 'n teenstander met aansienlik groter ervaring in die gesig staar, Lacey verwag dat 'n nuttige adrenalienstormloop soveel bekende gesigte agterop sal hê.

'Dit is anders. Ek het in Lewiston sewe keer baklei tussen amateurgevegte en my prodebuut,"Het hy gesê. 'Dit gee my die kans om in my gemaksone te wees. En baie van my aanhangers kan dit nie daar benut nie. Teen die tyd dat u op reis is, die prys van die kaartjies, miskien oornag, hulle kan dit net nie doen nie. '

Harvey het ingestem, en daarop gewys dat dit die aanvanklike geveg is waarvoor hy nie nodig gehad het om 'n tas te pak nie.

'Dit is die eerste keer dat ek die aand voor 'n geveg in my eie bed geslaap het. Ek dink dit is 'n groot voordeel,'Het Harvey gesê. 'Party mense dink miskien dat daar meer druk by jou aanhangers is, maar ek dink dit bou jou net op. ”

GLOVER VACATES; A NEW LIGHT-HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION TO BE CROWNED AT NEF 25

Skryf 'n opmerking

It was a bitterly cold night in Lewiston last February when Ryan Glover (3-1) won the New England Fights (NEF) gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) amateur light-heavyweight title. The months to come would see Glover accept a new job that would take him up and down the East Coast. With little time to train to defend the title, and in the interest of doing right by the division, Glover recently made the difficult decision to relinquish the championship.

 

NEF executives were quick to act. Vroeër vandag, the fight promotion announced that Victor Irwin (2-0) would meet Nick Shea (2-0) to fill the vacancy. The two undefeated athletes are scheduled to face-off to determine a new light-heavyweight champion at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS” opSeptember 10, 2016 in Lewiston.

 

Irwin was a standout wrestler at Brewer High School in Brewer, Maine at 195-pounds where he was a Class-A state champion. His love for the sport is so strong that when Irwin attended Eastern Maine Community College (EMCC) and learned the school did not have a wrestling program, he created one himself. As a college freshman in 2014 Irwin went to Nationals and achieved All-American status. He currently trains out of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

“I’ve thought a lot about this fight and I’ve come to the conclusion that it doesn’t matter what I say,” said Irwin, “it matters what I do, en kom September 10thyou’re gonna see some serious doing.”

 

2015 was a great start to the MMA career of Nick Shea. In February of that year, he won his debut fight over the much more experienced Jacob Cameron (1-5) via die eerste ronde 'n tegniese uitklophou. Later in the year, Shea would go on to defeat Ruben Redman (0-1) by decision in a hard-fought contest. It would earn Shea a nomination for the “Rookie van die Jaar” in die 2015 NEF Year-End Awards. Op September 10 in Lewiston, Shea will attempt to become the first member of the First Class MMA fight team to capture gold in the NEF cage.

 

“It’s an honor to fight someone from Young’s MMA,” said Shea. “I believe this will be my biggest test in the cage to date. I’m grateful and excited to compete for the amateur light heavyweight title. Victor and I will put on an exciting fight on Saterdag, September 10th!”

 

volgende byeenkoms New England veg ', "NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS,” takes place on Saturday, September 10, 2016 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. Tickets start at just $25 en is nou te koop by www.TheColisee.com of deur die Colisée loket by 207.783.2009 x 525. Tickets will also be available at the door the night of the event.

Byna 2,000 packed the hallowed halls where Muhammad Ali once defended the heavyweight championship of the world against Sonny Liston. A special video tribute was presented honoring Ali prior to the beginning of the event.

 

For the second time since April, Brandon Berry (11-2-1) en James Lester(11-9-1) het die afstand. Hierdie keer, unlike the last bout which was scored a draw, there was a winner. Lester is travelling back to his hometown of Detroit, Michigan the new Northeast Junior Welterweight Boxing Champion after winning a unanimous decision.

 

Alex Walker (1-1) en Nicole Burgess (0-1) kept alive the tradition of women’s fights stealing the show at NEF events. The two athletes battled back and forth in what can only be described as a “thriller” before a deafening crowd. Walker picked up the first win of her MMA career via an armbar submission in the third round.

MIKE HANSEN: GESIENDE VREES HOOFSTE

Skryf 'n opmerking

Mike Hansen

Lewiston, Maine (Junie 15, 2016) – Veg iemand, oral, te eniger tyd en onder enige omstandighede Mike Hansen se belkaartjie met New England Fights geword het.

Geen verrassing nie, dan, dat die 30-jarige vader van drie van Rumford, ME sal graag die idee van 'n gemengde vegkunswedstryd vermaak ... teen 'n teenstander van wie hy weliswaar kosbaar min weet ... aan die vooraand van Vadersdag.

Hansen (4-4) sal Robert Laroski die stryd aansê in 'n swaargewig-kragmeting by “NEF 24: Beloofde Land ”op Saterdag, Junie 18 by Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston.

Daar is geen vrees vir die onbekende in 'n man wat sy reputasie verwerf het met aansienlike groter vyande sedert sy dae as 'n stoeikampioenstoeier by die Mountain Valley High School nie.. Gedurende sy relatiewe kort tydjie in NEF, Hansen het as middelgewig geveg, ligte swaargewig en swaargewig.

'Toe ek die stryd voer (by NEF 23 in Massachusetts) teen Brendan Battles, mense het gesê, 'Jy is mal! Hy gaan jou kop breek!’ Ek verstaan ​​waarom die gewigsklasse bestaan, en ek respekteer dat dit gaan oor veiligheid en dit alles, maar ek het nog altyd gevoel dat 'n vegter gereed moet wees om met iemand te veg, maak nie saak wat nie,”Het Hansen gesê. "In Hoërskool, Ek sou twee liter water drink en lood in my uniform gooi, sodat ek tot die minimum gewig vir die onbeperkte klas kon kom. ”

Dit is die houding van 'n vegter wie se vaardigheid en talentvlak sy huidige rekord as beroep ver oortref.

Hansen se dossier bevat 'n oorwinning oor die voormalige NEF "Fighter of the Year" Crowsneck Boutin. Sy rekord bevat ook TKO-verliese aan Battles en Cody Anderson en 'n verstikking deur Zach Elkins.

As hy nadink oor sy unieke lewensverhaal, Hansen, wat as 20-jarige universiteitstudent twee keer vir die World Fighting League geveg het, verwonder dat hy ooit weer in die hok gekom het.

'Ek het die winter van 2004-05. Ek het begin oefen omdat ek weg is 187 te 242 pond in 'n paar maande. Ek het rekmerke gesien,”Onthou Hansen. 'Ek was nogal ontsteld oor myself omdat ek toegelaat het dat dit gebeur. Ek het twee aande per week Brasiliaanse Jiu-Jitsu begin doen om in vorm te kom. Toe is ek huis toe vir die somer en eindig met my eerste geveg in Augustus. My vriende het my die stryd aangesê sonder dat my afrigters daarvan weet. Hulle het vir my gesê dit is 'n goeie ding dat ek gewen het, of hulle sou my boude geskop het. ”

Hansen het 'n belofte aan sy vader om die sport te staak, na 'n uitklophou teen Alexander Chianurashvili in 2006. Hy studeer aan die Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, met die bedoeling om die mediese veld te betree.

Hy is met 'n bofbalkolf gesteek en aangeval in 'n geval van verkeerde identiteit, nie kort daarna nie. 'Ek het die volgende dag uit die hospitaal gestap, en al drie van hulle was nog daar binne van die pak slae wat ek hulle uit selfverdediging gegee het,”Het Hansen trots gesê.

Hierdie vasberade vasberadenheid het Hansen goed in die Amerikaanse weermag gedien, waar hy studeer aan die elite-strydprogram.

'Hulle vra jou' Wie wen die stryd?’En die antwoord is, ‘Wie se maatjie kom eers daar om hom te help opruim.’ Dit is wat Combatives my geleer het: Hoe om daardie ekstra te oorleef 30 te 60 sekondes,”Het Hansen gesê. 'Werksetiek is wat dit my geleer het. Dit het my gehelp om te groei en dinge te doen wat ek geestelik sou bevraagteken het of ek nie kon doen nie. Nie baie mense vind daardie ekstra min motivering nie. Die weermag het my geleer hoe om dit te vind en te gebruik. ”

N paar jaar later, Hansen het daardie innerlike vuur weer gevind. Al het hy teruggekeer om stoeiers in sy tuisdorp af te rig, sy eie liggaamlike fiksheid het gely as werk en vaderskap voorrang geniet.

Hansen beskryf lewendig sit in 'n boontjiesakstoel, peuselkos eet, TV kyk by 2:11 voormiddag. toe sy foon lui. Hy het aangeneem dat dit 'n vriend in die moeilikheid was.

'Dit was (NEF mede-eienaar) Matt Peterson. Ons gesinne het miskien grootgeword 200 meter uitmekaar. My stoeiafrigter op hoërskool het hom gebel, onbewus van my, om vir hom te sê hy moet my weer in die hok kry,”Het Hansen gesê.

Drie weke later en 20 pond ligter, Hansen het die super-swaargewig-wedstryd Artie Mullen na “NEF 16: Nuwe bloedstyg,”En die terugkeer was aan die gang.

In die 15 maande wat gevolg het, Hansen het 'n groot rol gespeel in die bekendstelling van Berserkers MMA en sy reputasie as vegter en instrukteur opgebou.

Die lewe blom by die huis, ook. Hansen is die vader van twee meisies, ouderdomme 5 en 2, en 'n seun van vier maande. Sy ouer dogter, Kaydn, vergesel pa gereeld na die gimnasium by die Greater Rumford-gemeenskapsentrum. Hy gee die guns terug deur vir haar kleuterskool klasbesoeke te doen.

'Sy en haar vriende sal op die speelgrond wees om boksposisies en dinge te oefen,”Het Hansen gesê. 'Haar juffrou sê dit is aanbiddelik. Hopefully she is learning to take care of herself so I don’t have to.”

Kaydn’s parents are making plans to take her to her first live NEF show after she turns 6. Vir nou, she is content to watch her Dad’s fights on YouTube.

“If we’re watching TV together,”Het Hansen gesê, “we have a thing where I get two shows and then she gets two shows. If I put in a fight tape, she’ll say, ‘Daddy, I know this doesn’t count as one of your shows, because this is your work.’”

Die opening klok op Junie 18 is vir 7 namiddag. Tickets for “NEF 24: Promised Land” start at $25 en is beskikbaar by www.TheColisee.com of deur die Colisee loket by 207.783.2009, uitbreiding 525.
