Lewiston, Maine (Mei 23, 2016) - Perkelahian New England (NEF) kembali ke Androscoggin Bank Colisée di Lewiston, Maine pada Bulan Juni 18, 2016 dengan “NEF 24: PROMISED LAND.” The fight promotion will put on another full night of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) cage fights and pro boxing bouts. Sebelumnya hari ini, NEF executives announced the addition of an amateur lightweight matchup to the MMA portion of the card. After a year’s absence, “Berbahaya” Penghakiman “Tangan dari Batu” Cofone (6-5) will return to the NEF MMA cage to face Steve Bang, Jr. (3-5) pada berat perjuangan 155-pound.
Dom Cofone was a Class A state wrestling champion out of Westbrook High School in Westbrook, Maine. He entered the MMA ranks in February of 2013. Sejak saat itu, he has been featured on nine NEF cards. Cofone’s last appearance in the promotion was in June 2015 di “NEF 18.” Malam itu, Cofone submitted Jason Lachance (2-3) di babak kedua. He is currently a member of the Academy of MMA in Portland, Maine, training under MMA pioneers Jay Jack and Amanda Buckner.
“I’m so thankful for the opportunity to step into the NEF cage once again,” kata Cofone. “With my coaches and teammates from the Academy behind me, I know I’ll be able to have a great performance. June 18th is going to be an awesome night for the NEF fans and an even better night for the Westbrook wrestling alumni!”
Steve Bang is a member of the famous Bang fighting family of Auburn, Maine. Pada Tanggal Bulan Juni 18, he will join his father and brothers in the NEF MMA cage. Bang wrestled as an independent during his years at Edward Little High School in Auburn, Maine. He is currently a member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ). Bang will look to rebound from a second-round submission loss to Fabian Miranda (2-0) last week at “NEF 23” in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
“I’m super pumped to fight with all of my family,” Kata Bang. “It’s always a great experience. This past year has been a rough year for me in many different ways and I feel like I am just – as of a month or two ago – coming out of it. I feel great in all aspects; mental, rohani, and physically. I am fired up and ready to do battle with so much of my family doing what Bangs’ do just fires me up more. I’m excited to fight alongside Shawn again who I haven’t seen dalam dua tahun and have only spoken to three times. I’m excited to fight Dom. I think it will be a great match up. I don’t get to fight many wrestlers. And I want to thank him for the opportunity to allow me to do what I love to do.”
