לעוויסטאָן, מיין (אַפּריל 20, 2015) – When קראָווסנעקק בוטאַן (0-0) makes his professional debut on יוני 13, 2015 בייַ די אַנדראָסקאָגגין באַנק קאָליסעע אין לעוויסטאָן, it will be just days shy of the three-year anniversary of his amateur debut in the very same building. On that warm, late-spring evening in 2012, a crowd of more than 3,000 had assembled to witness the Maine debut of former UFC World Heavyweight Champion Tim “די מיין-יאַק” סילוויאַ (31-10) at New England Fights’ (נעף) third mixed-martial-arts (ממאַ) געשעעניש. Earlier that night, on the amateur portion card, Boutin was in action against Brent “Frosty” Dillingham (1-1). Dillingham won via technical knockout (וואס) אין דער ערשטער קייַלעכיק. That was not the end of the action, אָבער, as Boutin and Dillingham exchanged in a heated post-fight confrontation, having to be separated by officials.
The bad blood has continued over the course of the past three years, with occasional barbs being hurled by both sides on social media. Boutin’s opponent on יוני 13 will be none other than Dillingham’s coach at MMA Athletix, “די דזשאַנגקיאַרד דאָג” ריאַן קאָוועטטע (2-2). When he met Dillingham, Boutin was an independent fighter with no formal training in the martial arts. In the months that followed, Boutin would join the Choi Institute of Portland, Maine and transform himself into a prolific striker. Boutin is clear that the fighter who will step in the cage on יוני 13 opposite Cowette is not the same undisciplined street fighter who lost to Dillingham three years ago.
“As an amateur with zero days in a gym, I debuted against MMA Athletix,” recalled Boutin of his amateur debut. “Fast forward three years later, three years straight at the Choi Institute. Here is your throat back, thanks for the loan.”
Not only is Cowette the head of MMA Athletix, but he is also the founder and pastor of Victory Church in Bath, מיין. Having suffered a major disappointment when his opponent backed out of their scheduled bout during fight week of “נעף קסוויי” earlier this month, Cowette is optimistic in regards to the יוני 13 fight with Boutin.
“This should be a great fight for the fans,” האט קאָוועטטע. “We both show up to fight and put on a show. I’m looking to push forward in the 185-pound division. Crowsneck will be a good test. I’m thankful for the opportunities NEF gives me.”
