Lewiston, मेन (नवंबर 29, 2017) - न्यू इंग्लैंड लड़ता (NEF) पर Lewiston रिटर्न शनिवार, फ़रवरी 3, 2018 लड़ाई पदोन्नति की अगली मिश्रित मार्शल-कला घटना के साथ, “NEF 32: सुपर शनिवार.” आज पहले, NEF announced the addition of an amateur flyweight bout to the card. रयान बर्गेस (2-2) सामना करेंगे Nate Boucher (2-1) 125 पाउंड के एक लड़ाई वजन पर.
Ryan Burgess is wrestling royalty at his alma mater, माउंटेन घाटी हाई स्कूल, in Rumford, मेन. Burgess is one of only four Mountain Valley wrestlers to ever win triple state crowns in wrestling. He amassed an amazing 151-23 overall high school record before graduating and turning his focus to mixed martial arts. He is currently a member of Berserkers MMA based in Rumford. Burgess is the former NEF amateur flyweight champion. NEF 32 will see him return to the cage after a year’s absence.
“I’m very excited for this opportunity to get back in the cage,” सईद बर्गेस. “I’ve taken some time off to make proper adjustments and focus on my career that started not long before my last fight. I’m ready to take my belt back and right now only one guy stands in my way. It’s not every day you can go to an MMA fight and watch two men who saw each other grow up scrap. जैसे कि February 3rd, नैट, we will see what you’re made of.”
Nate Boucher began wrestling at five-years old and due to some off-the-mat issues, never achieved the high school statistics of his upcoming adversary, बर्गेस. हालांकि, Boucher’s wrestling skills were on full display back in August 2017at NEF 30 when he defeated Maine wrestling legend and four-time state champion Jeremiah Barkac (0-1) by first-round submission. बाउचर, who grew-up admiring Burgess’ prowess on the mat, is anxious to test himself against such a decorated grappler and prove that his wrestling stands up against the best. He will be looking to rebound from a split decision loss to Justin Witham (4-4) earlier this month in an unsuccessful bid for the vacant flyweight title. It was a fight many in attendance felt Boucher had won.
“The disappointment of the decision going against me on November 3rd still stings,” said Boucher. “I’m confident that I beat Justin Witham that night, even though two of the three judges didn’t see it that way. इतना, I’m going to get right back on the horse—it’s what we do—and take on the guy that holds a win over Witham in Ryan Burgess. I grew-up watching Ryan wrestle. We’re from the same town and I know what he brings to the fight. I will be ready. I’m coming for my title and no one is going to get in my way.”
