LUPO AND HART BOTH LOOKING TO GET IN THE WIN COLUMN AT NEF 32

Lewiston, Maine (Janeiro 3, 2018) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) retorna para Lewiston emSábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018 com o próximo evento misto de artes marciais da promoção luta, “NEF 32: Super Sábado.” Hoje cedo, NEF announced the addition of an amateur lightweight bout to the card. Stacy Lupo (0-1) vai assumir David Hart (0-2) com um peso de combate de 155 libras-.

Stacy Lupo made his NEF cage debut in the summer of 2016, facing fellow forty-something athlete Dr. Steve bang (1-1). Lupo and Bang went deep into the third round in a grueling, back-and-forth battle before Bang was able to finish the fight by TKO. Prior to stepping in the cage that night, Lupo, a former wrestler at Nokomis Regional High School in Newport, Maine, already had more than three decades worth of martial arts experience. He holds black belts in both Taekwondo and Shotokan karate. Lupo competed in amateur boxing and kickboxing in the 1980s and 1990s. Atualmente, he is a member of The Outlet based in Dexter, Maine and also operates Lupo’s Mid Maine Karate.

I’m very unhappy with my first showing in the MMA ring,” said Lupo. “I feel I let down my fans and my students. I’m hoping to redeem myself in this next match. I heard Mr. Hart wants a stand-up fight, and that’s what I’m hoping for too. I’d like to showcase my skills, so I look forward to 3 de fevereiro.”

Tal como o seu adversário, David Hart is also looking for his first victory in the MMA cage. He made his debut last summer at “NEF 30” in Bangor in a losing effort against Zach Faulkner (1-0). Hart took Faulkner into the second round before getting submitted. He returned a few weeks later at “NEF 31” in Portland and lost again via submission against 56-year-old Gary Carr (1-0). Agora, Hart is looking forward to testing his striking skills against another striker in the form of Lupo. Hart represents Kenney’s MMA of Lisbon, Maine.

I look forward to fighting in Lewiston,” said Hart. “Lupo looks like a tough opponent and has good striking. I am up to the challenge and want to get my first win and the first win for Kenney’s MMA. It will be a great fight.

BOYINGTON RETURNING TO NEF CAGE AFTER TWO-YEAR ABSENCE

Lewiston, Maine (Dezembro 29, 2017) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) retorna para Lewiston em Sábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018 com o próximo evento misto de artes marciais da promoção luta, “NEF 32: Super Sábado.” Hoje cedo, NEF announced the addition of a professional catchweight bout to the card. Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (14-11) assinou a cara Taylor Trahan (7-8) com um peso de luta de 150 quilos.

The fight will be the first for Boyington in the NEF cage since February 2016 when he successfully defended the NEF Lightweight Title against Jon Lemke (7-8). It was Boyington’s third defense of the belt since winning it in the late summer of 2014. After the Lemke defense, Boyington relinquished the championship in order to sign with the World Series of Fighting (WSOF).

While he has fought on many of the largest stages in the world over the past two years, including Madison Square Garden in New York City and halfway across the globe in Russia, Boyington is looking forward to his homecoming and the opportunity to once again fight before his many Maine fans.

“Cara, I couldn’t possibly be more excited to get inside the NEF cage, where I have molded my career, built my fan base and learned so much about myself over the years,” Disse Boyington. “I am so hungry to entertain people that I can guarantee everyone will want to see what’s going down! I live for this, e na 3 de fevereiro, there will be some of the best MMA that has ever been on display from the State of Maine, and I’m grateful and humbled by the opportunity. My opponent is a respectable guy that I believe loves to fight and I want that in there. I wish him the very best in preparation, and I thank (NEF owners) Matt (Peterson) e Nick (DiSalvo) once again for providing me a platform.

Boyington currently owns and operates Boyington’s Taekwondo of Bangor, Maine. He also trains with Young’s MMA in the same city.

Taylor Trahan is a familiar face to NEF fans. He has competed twice for the promotion in the past. Trahan submitted Matt Denning (5-7) in the first round of their meeting at “NEF 25.” He returned to Maine just weeks later at “NEF 26” in a losing effort to Aaron Lacey (4-1). Trahan is coming off a win over Conor Barry (3-2) last month in New Hampshire. He represents Team Link of Hooksett.

“I’m looking forward to returning to NEF,” said Trahan. “They always put on a good show and treat the fighters right. I’m really looking forward to fighting Bruce. He definitely is the most experienced fighter I’ll be going up against so far.”

M-1 Arena grand opening and M-1 Challenge 100 to highlight 21st season for M-1 Global

In January the new M-1 Arena is scheduled to open in Saint Petersburg
SÃO PETERSBURGO, Rússia (Dezembro 29, 2017) — The grand opening of the state-of-the-art M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburgh, in addition to the celebration of M-1 Challenge 100 later in 2018, will highlight M-1 Global’s 21st estação.
Plans in 2018 also include more events, expansion into new countries and, como o n. 2 MMA organization in the world, to keep giving its fans world-class competition, entertaining match-ups, innovative developments and even a few surprises.
Presidente M-1 Global Vadim Finkelchtein discussed a few of these subjects (Veja abaixo) prior to the holidays.
Can you tell us about the new M-1 Arena?
VF: “M-1 Arena is an absolutely unique structure seating a maximum of 3000. It is built in the form of the Colosseum, stone and wood, with an incredible dome made of glulam, which gives the place perfect acoustics. Not only can we promote sporting events, but also music concerts. M-1 Arena allows us to have even more events and realize new ideas like, por exemplo, a reality show. M-1 Arena will be multifunctional but martial arts will be the main form of entertainment held there.
M-1 Challenge was more international last year in terms of showcasing more fighters from different countries like USA, Portugal, Reino Unido, Canadá, Coreia Do Sul, China, etc. Do you plan to expand your fighter base even more this year and, if so, what countries are you targeting for fighters?
VF: “Usualmente, we hire fighters from countries where our events are being broadcasted. If we have new contracts with the countries from where we don’t have representative fighters, or only have a few of them, we are going to increase their number. The same for countries where we’ve held events because fans desire to see the local athletes fighting in the Rage. We give them an opportunity to see that.
With the success of female MMA stars around the world do you plan to add a female division in 2018?
VF: “One day we will probably create a female division in M-1 Global. Agora, embora, we don’t have enough strong female fighters to do it, ainda. As soon as we are ready to make this happen, it will be done, but we don’t want to open a new division just to check the box. We want the best fighters to compete at the highest level.
M-1 Global is closing in on your 100th M-1 Challenge event. Do you plan to promote your 100th event in 2018? If so can you provide any additional information about when, onde, special plans, etc.
VF: M-1 Global has already promoted more than 200 eventos, Incluindo 85 M-1 Challenges, which was created in 2008. I think that this event will happen either in Saint-Petersburg or in Moscow, but we still have a lot of time left and a dozen other events before it. We are going to take care of it a bit later.
M-1 has developed fighters who’ve moved on to the UFC and other organizations. How do you feel about that trend? Does it frustrate you that you to spend time building a fighter and then have him move on, or do you look at it as a compliment that M-1 Global develops fighters who can compete in the UFC and any other organization?
VF: “We can consider this situation from different perspectives. I’m not happy to let my best fighters go, claro, Mas é o que é, and we are not ready to compete with UFC yet. Sometimes our fighters leave us. From another perspective, we are happy that our fighters who leave keep winning fights and become the top competitors in other promotions. It proves that the level of M-1 Global fighters is equal to the level of UFC fighters. The top athletes who left M-1 Global for UFC are in top positions there and other promotions don’t have such results. Other organization may make their fighters popular but, as soon as they move to UFC, they start losing and get released.
Our company is probably the second MMA promotion in the world and when some fighters move to the strongest league on the planet, they take a step forward, which I like much better than when they move to weaker promotions than M-1 Global just to make more money.
Any plans to do anything different this year than in the past, outside of the grand opening of the M-1 arena and possible 100th event?
VF: “The main difference will be that we are going to have our own home, M-1 Arena, which means we will be able to hold even more events. We’d like to have two events each month, 24 events a year. We opened our own TV channel (M1global.tv) and next year, MMA fans from former Soviet Republics will have an opportunity to watch all the fights. Using our iOS and Android App, viewers from all over the world can watch old and new fights right now, and next year we are going to make it even better. We are also going to create our own studio to produce different content, probably a new reality show with fighters from different countries.
Will you have showcase M-1 Medieval fights this coming year?
VF: “Apparently, we will have some medieval fights in 2018, but the only issue is that we have a lot of fighters under contract, so it is not easy to find a place for M-1 Medieval fights on our cards. We make knight fights in regions where they are popular, like in Ingushetia and Finland in 2017, because fans demonstrated to us that they want to see them. I hope one day we’ll have more resources for them.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced the promotion will kick off 2018 with an action-packed event in southern California.
O evento principal do LFA 30 will feature the long-awaited clash between southern California kingpins and top LFA welterweights “Curtious” Curtis Millender and NickThe Phoenix” Barnes. LFA 30 – Millender vs. Barnes takes place Sexta-feira, January 12th at the Costa Mesa Hall at the OC Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, Califórnia. Todo o cartão principal do LFA 30 – Millender vs. Barnes will be televised live and nationwide on AXS TV at 10 p.m. E / 7 p.m. PT.
I’m excited to kick off 2018 by bringing LFA back to southern California”, stated Soares. “Curtis Millender and Nick Barnes are coming off big wins in LFA headlining bouts where they won in enemy territory. Now they get to face each other in the main event of LFA 30 on their home turf in a perfect headliner to start the new year.
Ingressos para LFA 30 – Millender vs. Barnes are available for purchase NOW at CageTix.com/LFA.
Mill Ends (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner this past August at LFA 20.
While the main event will feature a rivalry between two of the top welterweights in LFA, the co-main event will feature a rivalry between two of the LFA featherweight division’s most talented jiu-jitsu practitioners.
Fernando Padilla (10-1) put the division on notice in October, when he submitted longtime RFA vet Darrick Minner with a Triangle-Armbar in the first round of their co-main event bout at LFA 25. Padilla, who is a 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu brown belt, has now won 90% of his fights by first round stoppage. He will now face a man equally dangerous on the ground when he meets Talison Soares (9-2) in the co-main event of LFA 30. Soares is a jiu-jitsu black belt from the famed Checkmat BJJ team who has made a name for himself competing in his native Brazil. Soares has a 100% finishing rate in the nine bouts he has won and will now make his international debut in the co-main event of LFA 30.

EWER TENTARÁ FAZER HISTÓRIA DE CAMPEONATO NO NEF 32

Lewiston, Maine (Dezembro 28, 2017) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) retorna a Lewiston no sábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018 com o próximo evento misto de artes marciais da promoção luta, “NEF 32: Super sábado.” Hoje cedo, NEF anunciou a adição de uma luta pelo campeonato profissional ao card. CJ Ewer (3-0) se reunirá Kemran Lachinov (5-2) para o título vago NEF MMA Professional Welterweight.

 

 

A luta colocará Ewer em uma posição única – para manter títulos simultaneamente em duas divisões de peso. É um feito que já foi tentado, mas nunca realizado no NEF. Ewer é o principal detentor do título profissional de peso médio da organização. Ele conquistou o título com uma vitória sobre Mike Hansen (5-8) último verão em “NEF 30” em Bangor, Maine. Ewer levou menos de dois minutos para finalizar Hansen com um estrangulamento em triângulo de braço. A vitória não só rendeu a Ewer o título dos médios, mas também uma indicação para “2017 Apresentação do ano.” Se Ewer sair vitorioso sobre Lachinov em fevereiro 3, ele ficará no topo das categorias de meio-médio e médio. Ele representa o MMA de Young em Bangor.

 

 

“Meu oponente é feroz com uma mandíbula de granito e uma vontade de ferro,” disse Ewer. “Ele é de longe o lutador mais difícil que já enfrentei, e vai haver muita pressão indo para essa luta, já que é uma luta pelo título. Eu sempre subo ao nível da competição e prometo que você verá o melhor, CJ mais preparado que você já viu. ”

 

 

Kemran Lachinov é um veterano de sete anos no cenário de MMA da Nova Inglaterra. Ele também é um veterano de duas lutas da jaula do Bellator, onde permanece invicto. Lachinov está atualmente em uma seqüência de três vitórias consecutivas, que começou no início 2017. Ele tentará continuar esse sucesso em 2018 começando com sua luta contra Ewer. Lachinov representa o Team Link de Ludlow, Massachusetts.

 

 

próximo evento misto de artes marciais do NEF, “NEF 32: Super Saturday,” vai ver a empresa fazer o seu retorno ao Colisee Androscoggin Bank em Lewiston, Maine. O evento está programado para acontecer no sábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018. Os ingressos já estão à venda online em www.TheColisee.com.

M-1 Global’s 20th anniversary a smashing success in 2017

Presidente M-1 Global Vadim Finkelchtein
SÃO PETERSBURGO, Rússia (Dezembro 27, 2017) — M-1 Global celebrated its 20thanniversary in style this past year, reestablishing itself as the preeminent mixed-martial-arts organization in Europe and Russia.
M-1 promoted 13 Challenges in 2017, 11 across Russia, as well as one each in China and Finland. Fighters from around the world competed including MMA superstars such as Sergey Kharitonov e Alexander Shlemenko, as well as rising stars Alexey Kunchenko e Artem Frolov.
M-1 Global founder and president Vadim Finkelchtein reviewed the 2017 estação, answering a series of questions below:
Global, how do you evaluate the 2017 M-1 Challenge season in terms of achievements and accomplishments as a promotional company?
VF: “Em primeiro lugar, we increased the number of events. Some were even rated among top 5 monthly sporting events on television, which is really an incredible achievement. We’ve almost finished building our new M-1 Arena and produced our own M-1 Be Strong Protein milkshake.
You promoted events in different countries this past year like Finland. Was M-1 embraced by those fans and, if so, why do you think so?
VF: “We held our first event in Finland and it was really successful. M-1 Desafio 82took place in Hartwall Arena, one of the largest venues in Finland, located in the capital of Helsinki. Many fans came to watch our promotion’s debut in that country and it became one of the biggest MMA events in Finland history. Scandinavia is a very interesting region for us. We have many fighters from Finland and next year we are going to hold another event there.
We also had a big event in Harbin, China, which was a part of cultural program of Economic Forum. Many VIP visitors and thousands of fans gathered to watch the fights and it was a superb event. China is a prospective MMA market and we are going to work further, featuring more fighters from this country, and promote one or two event a year there.
“Próximo ano, we are going to promote even more events in other countries, planning to hold M-1 Challenge shows in Georgia, Azerbaijão, Cazaquistão, Turquia, China, Finlândia, Germany and the USA.
What was the M-1 highlight of the year?
VF: “This past year we had a lot of remarkable events and fights, so it’s very difficult to choose just one highlight. If I had to choose, the rematch between Alexander Shlemenko and Brandon Halsey was the highlight of the year. Thousands of people in Saint Petersburg on June 1st came to see the rematch and that liver-kick Alexander delivered made the crowd go crazy. In the first fight, Brandon won in 35 segundos, so Alexander wanted to revenge fast and it took him just 25 segundos. That was unbelievable and unforgettable!”
Compared to past years in what areas did M-1 improve in 2017?
VF: “Each year we have more high-level fighters and that is the main difference. MMA has been developing around the world and the competition is always getting tougher. Only the best fighters receive an opportunity to sign a contract with M-1 Global. We have an opportunity to choose the best fighters, increasing the level of fights, to make it impossible to predict the winners in advance. Além disso, we increased the number of events and TV coverage with some new TV contracts worldwide.
This was your 20th year. When you started 20 years ago did you envision the success M-1 has had in MMA?
VF: “I could not imagine MMA would become so popular. I went through the entire MMA evolution and the past 20 years I’ve been working on the promotion to make it better each year. The path was not easy because many years ago this kind of sport was considered criminal. Many called it fights without rules and I had to work hard to make people think about it as a legitimate sport.
M-1 added the flyweight division this past year. Why and was it successful in the eyes of fans?
VF: “Flyweight fighters can produce incredible performances. It was necessary for us to create this division because we knew that there were lot of good flyweight fighters. They wanted to fight in M-1 and we made it happen. We already have the first champion and a several tough contenders. Em 2018, the flyweight division will be very interesting.

2017 Rookie of the Year Voltando ao CAGE AT NEF 32

Lewiston, Maine (Dezembro 27, 2017) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) retorna para Lewiston emSábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018 com o próximo evento misto de artes marciais da promoção luta, “NEF 32: Super Sábado.” Hoje cedo, NEF anunciou a adição de uma luta amadora de peso galo feminino ao card. Jayda “Lil Killah” Colherão(1-0) está programado para enfrentar Amanda Gallo (0-1) com um peso de luta de 135 quilos.

Jayda Bailey ganhou as manchetes este ano quando se tornou a mais jovem atleta a competir em uma luta de MMA sancionada no Maine. Apenas oito dias após seu 18º aniversário, a idade mínima legal para um participante MMA no estado, Bailey montar um desempenho dominante em sua estréia contra Danae Dostie (0-1) em “NEF 31.” Demorou pouco mais de 90 segundos para atingir a vitória por TKO. A vitória foi tão impressionante que rendeu a Bailey uma indicação para “Recruta do Ano.” Os fãs concordaram e votaram no Hermon, Adolescente do Maine como ganhador do prêmio. Bailey é atualmente um membro do Young’s MMA de Bangor. Este Verão, após a formatura no ensino médio, ela pretende mudar para Albuquerque, Novo México, onde ela vai entrar Jackson Wink MMA Academy – o lar de muitos dos melhores do UFC estrelas.

“Eu não posso esperar para entrar no cage novamente e mostrar minhas habilidades,” disse Bailey. “Eu olho para obter melhor cada vez que eu lutar, e eu estou animado para estar diante de um novo desafio.”

Esse novo desafio virá na forma de Amanda Gallo. Gallo treina com Robson Moura Nations United (RMNU) com sede em Tampa, Florida. Ela fez sua estréia na gaiola no outono de 2016 contra Laine Orabona (2-2) em um card de luta na Geórgia. A competição emocionante foi para longe e viu Gallo perder uma decisão dividida muito próxima dos juízes’ scorecards. Ela virá ao Maine em busca da primeira vitória de sua jovem carreira.

próximo evento misto de artes marciais do NEF, “NEF 32: Super Sábado,” vai ver a empresa fazer o seu retorno ao Colisee Androscoggin Bank em Lewiston, Maine. O evento está programado para acontecer em Sábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018. Os ingressos já estão à venda online emwww.TheColisee.com.
