VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Desember 19, 2019) - New England Fights (NEF) sal sy volgende gemengde vegkuns hou (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis, “NEF 42: Simfonie van vernietiging,” Saterdag, Februarie 8, 2020, by Merrill Auditorium in Portland. Vroeër vandag, NEF announced the addition of an amateur catchweight bout to the card.Garry Carr(2-1) sal in die gesig staarAustin Hamilton (0-1) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 165 pond.

Garry Carr currently holds the record for the oldest athlete to ever win a fight in the NEF cage. It is a record Carr first set at the age of 56 in 2017, broke at age 57 in 2019, and will attempt to break again at age 58 on February 8. Last summer, Carr defeated Clifford Redman (0-11) via first-round technical knockout at “NEF 39” in Lewiston, Maine. Carr looks to pick up his third win in the MMA cage at “NEF 42” in Portland. He currently represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) based in Lewiston.

I cannot wait to get back in the NEF cage for the fourth time,” said Carr.  “This one will bring the house down or tear the roof clean off. It’s an honor to train and fight for team CMBJJ. Be sure to keep your eyes peeledyou’re going to see a lot of us on this card, including our fight team manager, Jesse “Die Viking” Erickson. I’m looking to set another new NEF record by being the oldest man to win in the NEF cage at the age of 58. You’ve got to see this one, mense. Hit me up for tickets!”

Austin Hamilton made his cage debut at “NEF 41” last month in Portland. He lost to Carr’s CMBJJ teammate Nate “The Mule” White (4-0) by first-round technical knockout. He will now have the chance to avenge that loss when he meets Carr on February 8 in Portland.

“I’m really looking forward to getting a chance to redeem myself after the last fight,” said Hamilton. “I have nothing but respect for Garry, as so should anyone else in this game. I only hope that when I’m his age, I can still be doing this!"

JASON LANDRY LOOKS TO AVENGE FIRST LOSS WHEN NEF RETURNS TO PORTLAND

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Desember 18, 2019) - New England Fights (NEF) sal sy volgende gemengde vegkuns hou (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis, “NEF 42: Simfonie van vernietiging,” Saterdag, Februarie 8, 2020 by Merrill Auditorium in Portland. Vroeër vandag, NEF announced the addition of an amateur welterweight bout to the card.Jason Landry(2-1) is scheduled to take onDustin Carrier(0-0) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 170 pond.

Jason Landry burst onto the NEF fight scene earlier this year making more noise than any rookie had in some time. Landry dominated and submitted a much more experienced Justin Boraczek (4-3) in Landry’s debut at “NEF 38” last spring. In his follow-up effort, Landry nearly took Dan Seigars’ (0-1) face off with a single punch knockout just seven seconds into the first round.

Landry’s momentum, egter, would come to a screeching halt this past September when he met Mike “Boogaloo” Bezanson (4-0) in Orono, Maine. After a wild opening exchange, Bezanson would stop Landry via technical knockout within the first minute of the first round. Not one to let a loss get him down, Landry has used it as a learning experience and motivation to return to the cage in the New Year.

“Fighting has always been a passion of mine,” stated Landry. “Going into that cage where it’s just man-to-man—there’s no better adrenaline rush than that. Losing is learning and is great fuel for the fire. I can’t wait to get back out there and put on one hell of a show for the NEF fans. Expect action-packed chaos!"

Dustin Carrier will be making his amateur debut on February 8, but he his team at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) will undoubtedly have him ready for the cage. Carrier trains at the Lewiston, Maine-based gym alongside longtime NEF competitors like Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (9-8) and former amateur flyweight titleholder Dustin Veinott (5-4).

Undefeated Mike Bezanson returned to NEF this past September after more than a three-year absence from cage competition. Bezanson, known for his flashy striking style and showmanship during fights, handed Jason Landry (2-1) his first loss at “NEF 40” in Orono, Maine. It took Bezanson only 41-seconds to pick up the technical knockout victory. He went on to capture a title in New Hampshire with a fourth-round knockout just weeks later. Bezanson has finished all four of his previous opponents with his striking prowess. He represents Team Kaze based in Lancaster, New Hampshire.

“In 2020, I have to do some belt shopping—the one I currently hold is getting lonely and needs some friends,” said Bezanson.  “I’ll make sure the tickets are worth buying!”

Since losing his debut to Jordan Norman (2-1) verlede April, Greg Ishihara has been on a roll, winning his last two MMA bouts in the NEF cage and a Muay Thai Kickboxing fight in Vermont. Last month, Ishihara picked up his most recent win against Dylan Williams (0-3) with a knee to the body just over a minute into the first round at “NEF 41” in Portland. Ishihara represents Recon Fitness based in Westbrook, Maine.

NEF has always treated me well,” noted Ishihara. “It means a lot to meto be able to compete here in Maine. The NEF staff is always professional making for a great experience. I look forward to competing inside the NEF cage in 2020. I’m excited for this upcoming fight with Mike. He’s flashy and his movement is impressive. This fight will give me the opportunity to display the full range of my skill set. I’m diligent in my preparation and I take pride in my work and performance. My goal is to hold the NEF title at 170-pounds and defend it.

CALEB AUSTIN EN DILLON HENRY OM TE VERGADER IN VLIEGGEWEGKAMP OP NEF 42

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Desember 13, 2019) - New England Fights (NEF) sal sy volgende gemengde vegkuns hou (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis, “NEF 42: Simfonie van vernietiging,” Saterdag, Februarie 8, 2020 by Merrill Auditorium in Portland. Vroeër vandag, NEF het die toevoeging van 'n amateurvlieggewigstryd op die kaart aangekondig.Caleb “Dr.. Feelgood ”Austin(3-0) sal voldoenDillon Henry(0-3) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 125 pond.

Die onoorwonne Caleb Austin het die afgelope herfs na meer as twee jaar na NEF teruggekeer. Dit het Austin net meer as 'n minuut geneem om 'n oorwinning oor Cory Richards te beklink (0-1) in September by “NEF 40”. In November, Austin het die tweede ronde saam met Ryan Fogg aangegaan (0-1) voordat u nog 'n tegniese uitklopoorwinning behaal. Met die huidige amateurvlieggewigkampioen Nate Boucher (6-3) Austin word 'n pro as 'NEF 42', en word beskou as een van die beste kandidate vir die vakante band as hy verby Henry sou kom.

Sukses in atletiek is niks nuuts vir Caleb Austin nie. Hy het 'n indrukwekkende rekord van 208-11 stoei vir die Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine en verower staatstitels op 126 pond sy junior en senior jaar. Die Lewiston Sun Journal het Austin aangewys as die "worstelaar van die jaar" in 2017. Na die gradeplegtigheid, Austin het voortgegaan om te stoei terwyl hy aan die Universiteit van Suid-Maine gegaan het. Hy verteenwoordig tans die Brasiliaanse Jiu-Jitsu in Sentraal-Maine (CMBJJ) van Lewiston, Maine.

'Die hoeveelheid ondersteuning wat ek sedert September gekry het toe ek na die MMA-hok teruggekeer het, was vernederend,”Het Austin gesê. 'Ek is in die gimnasium en hardloop elke dag met Februarie in my gedagtes. Gaan 2-0 hierdie herfs seisoen was wonderlik, maar ek het groter dinge voor my 2020. Ek sal volgende jaar die NEF vlieggewigkampioenskap wen en Dillon Henry is net die volgende hindernis voor my op pad na die doel. Ek wil vinniger en meer skoon wen elke keer as ek in die hok kom. Dit is 'n eer elke keer as ek voor die NEF-aanhangers veg - en ek kan nie wag om dit weer op 8 Februarie in die Merrill-ouditorium te doen nie. '

Dillon Henry kom op Februarie na die hok 8 op soek na die eerste oorwinning in sy amateurloopbaan. Henry debuteer verlede Februarie teen die bogenoemde Nate Boucher, wat toe reeds ses gevegte gehad het. Die afgelope September het Henry teen Stephen Desjardins deelgeneem wat as sewe-veg-veteraan in die stryd getree het. Henry was besig om die oorhand oor Desjardins te kry totdat hy sy eie skouer ontwrig het en in die eerste ronde 'n hou geslaan het. Hy verteenwoordig tans First Class MMA van Brunswick, Maine.

“Ek gaan baie sê, maar die lewe kan onverwagte draaie neem en jy begin om nuwe redes baklei,Sê Henry.  'Ek sien uit na 8 Februarie, genoeg gesê."

'N Vegter is meer as sy rekord en Dillon Henry is 'n uitstekende voorbeeld daarvan,”Het Matt Peterson, mede-eienaar en pasmaat van NEF, opgemerk.  'Dillon voer altyd harde gevegte met die doel om as amateur beter te word, sodat hy uiteindelik sy stempel as 'n pro kan afdruk. Caleb is sy volgende uitdaging en ek is seker dat Dillon die stryd sal meebring en dit 'n prettige uitdaging vir ons as aanhangers sal maak. Caleb het binnegekom vinnig 'n impak gemaak gedurende die herfsseisoen. Kan hy sy onoorwonne reeks voortsit om 'n nuwe jaar en 'n nuwe dekade te begin?? Ons sal dit op 8 Februarie uitvind. '

Justin Middleton burst onto the NEF fight scene with an upset victory over Jon Assam (1-2) last month at “NEF 41” in Portland. Middleton came into the bout as the underdog as it was both his debut against the more experienced Assam and Assam represented an established fight team while Middleton was an independent competitor. He submitted Assam via rear-naked choke in the first round. Middleton is a longtime, distinguished, and heavily-decorated Army Ranger that served the United States proudly in Iraq.

“I’m honored to have such a seasoned and accomplished opponent so early in my career,” said Middleton.  “I know that it’s going to be a challenge, and I will be training accordingly. 155 is the optimum performance weight for me, and I will be coming with everything I’ve got. I’m sure Mo and I will give the fans a war.

2019 was a banner year for Boucher. He finished his amateur career with a stellar 6-3 record and captured NEF’s amateur flyweight title at “NEF 41” last month in what would be his final amateur fight. Boucher has won his last four fights in a row – all by first round rear-naked choke submission. Shortly after his title victory, Boucher engaged in a heated exchange on Facebook with Fox who challenged Boucher to enter the pro ranks to fight him. Boucher was quick to accept the challenge. He currently represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) van Lewiston, Maine.

“I closed out 2019 by doing exactly what I said I was going to do,” stated Boucher.  “I went 3-0 and won the New England Fights Amateur Flyweight Title. I planned on taking time off to focus on my unborn child’s arrival. Egter, Norman had quite a mouthful to say and asked for the fight. So, I did what fighters do and took the fight immediately. Norman is in for a long night on February 8th. I hope for his sake that he fully prepares for this. The way I see it, I was given a gift to kick off my pro career. Thank you to Cure Cannabis and the rest of my loyal sponsors and supporters for helping me get to this point in my career—I look forward to the next level with all of you.”

Norman Fox returns to the NEF cage after a four year hiatus from competition. He was last seen at “NEF 21” in February 2016 in a losing effort in his professional debut. Fox went 4-2 as 'n amateur, finishing his opponents in all four of his wins. Fox is currently a member of First Class MMA based in Brunswick, Maine.

Nate is one-dimensional,” declared Fox.  “All he can do is wrestle. If he doesn’t immediately shoot for a takedown, he will as soon as my hands touch his face. I’m dangerous everywhere. If he does get the fight to the ground, he will regret it.

The catchweight bout joins an already star-studded lineup on the professional portion of the card. Previously announced for “NEF 42” is a five-round professional lightweight title fight between former NEF champion and World Series of Fighting veteranBruce "Pretty Boy" Boyington (17-11) and WEC and UFC veteranJosh “The Fluke” Grispi(14-5).  Another lightweight fight announced for “NEF 42” will feature two Maine fan-favorites as reigning NEF Professional Featherweight ChampionJosh “Hook On” Harvey(7-0-1) sit sy onoorwonne rekord op die lyn teenJesse “The Viking” Erickson (9-8) in a non-title encounter.
