Lewiston, Maine (Jiyè 23, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe diznevyèm melanje-masyal-boza li yo (Mma) evènman, “Nef XIX,” nan Samdi, Septanm 12, 2015 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisée nan nan Lewiston, Maine. Earlier today, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur lightweight bout to the fight card. Cory Jijman (1-1) la pwograme yo fè fas a debu nan Rafael Velado (0-0) nan yon pwa batay nan 155-liv.
Jijman an ap vini sou yon gwo genyen nan “Nef XVIII Atik” mwa pase a. He knocked out Corey Hinkley (2-4) in just seven seconds of the first round. In doing so, Trial became the new holder of the NEF fastest knockout record. The finish was so brutal that Hinkley was taken from the cage on a stretcher by paramedics. Trial trains under coach Josh Parker at Ruthless MMA & Boksè nan Benton, Maine. He is confident that he will repeat his knockout performance on Velado at “Nef XIX.”
“Mwen se eksite yo ka resevwa tounen nan kalòj la,” di Jijman. “Having a seven second knockout and breaking the NEF record was nice, men li pa t 'ase. I’ve been busting my ass in the gym with the best coach and I’m ready for anything – men li la inevitab. Sa a batay pral fini menm jan an yon sèl ki sot pase a te fè sa.”
Pandan ke Rafael Velado ka fè ofisyèl li mma premye a “Nef XIX,” he is no stranger to combat sports. Velado is an accomplished practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). Training in the sport since 2005, Velado touche senti nwa li nan 2012 soti nan mond pi popilè lejand BJJ, ak ch veteran, Joe Moreira. He was raised in Skowhegan, Maine and now resides in neighboring Norridgewock. Velado represents John Raio’s First Class Fitness & Mma nan Brunswick, Maine.
“Li te difisil jwenn yon amatè ki pral pran yon batay kont yon senti nwa BJJ, so I decided to call out the guy who is riding high from an impressive victory,” Di Velado. “Mwen si ke li te santi l irézistibl kounye a, e ke ta dwe fè sa a batay trè enteresan. I don’t know if I would call it a classic striker versus grappler match-up, men si sa a, se li montre kouman li a voye bòdwo bay konpayi, Mwen pa fache a sa.”
