Lewiston, Maine (Mai 23, 2016) - Lupte New England (NEF) revine la Colisée Androscoggin Bank din Lewiston, Maine pe Iunie 18, 2016 cu “NEF 24: TEREN PROMIS.” The fight promotion will put on another full night of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) cage fights and pro boxing bouts. Mai devreme astăzi, NEF executives announced the addition of an amateur lightweight matchup to the MMA portion of the card. After a year’s absence, “Dangerous” Dom “Mâinile de piatră” Cofone (6-5) will return to the NEF MMA cage to face Steve Bang, Jr. (3-5) la o greutate de 155 luptă-lire sterline.
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. Din acel moment, he has been featured on nine NEF cards. Cofone’s last appearance in the promotion was in June 2015 la “NEF 18.” În acea noapte, Cofone submitted Jason Lachance (2-3) în al doilea tur. 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,” said Cofone. “With my coaches and teammates from the Academy behind me, I know I’ll be able to have a great performance. 18 iunie 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. Pe Iunie 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,” Said 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; mintal, sufletește, 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 in doi ani 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.”
