Lewiston, Maine (Jiyè 15, 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 a professional bout to the fight card. Tollison Lewis (0-4) te siyen nan figi “Enkasabl 2.0” Derek Shorey (2-2) nan yon pwa batay nan 150-liv. NEF further announced that Lewis had signed a long term, kontra milti-batay ak konpayi an.
Apre yon karyè long amatè ki wè l 'patisipe nan konpetisyon nan kalòj la trèz fwa, Tollison Lewis got off to a slow start in his professional career. He has been known throughout his career to take the toughest fights he can find, ak kat pèt Lewis a te tout vini nan men yo nan avyon de gè ki genyen kounye a genyen dosye, ak yon konbine genyen-pèt tally nan 16-6. Last fall, nan premye evènman boksè nef an, Lewis defeated veteran boxer John Webster (8-7-1) after taking the bout on just a day’s notice. With a brand new NEF contract in tow, yon timoun sou wout la, ak yon relèv soti nan espò a dèyè do l ', Lewis will now look to carry his success from the NEF boxing ring over to the MMA cage. The 150-pound catchweight will be the first step in Lewis’s transition from the lightweight to featherweight division.
“Premye a mwen ta renmen di mèsi pou opòtinite nef an ankò,” Di Lewis. “Mwen te sou yon ti repo long ak ti bebe mwen an ti fi sou wout la ap resevwa pare pou patènite, men mwen tounen kounye a. I’m super excited for this fight and also making my way down in weight. Shorey se yon nèg difisil ak tou moun trè otantik. He’s as dangerous as any man who steps in that cage. I’ll be ready and I know he will be coming hard and dangerous with bad intentions behind everything and when that cage door closes, li se pa gen okenn zanmi – li nan tout biznis. Be ready Derek, paske mwen pral. Let’s give these fans a show and test ourselves to the limit.”
Fondatè a ak tèt nan Club la konba enkasabl, Derek Shorey is looking to bounce back from what he considers the worst loss of his career. Vreman vre, Jeremy dikyara (2-0) deklannche yon baraj ofansif sou Shorey nan “Nef XVIII Atik” last month that resulted in a first-round stoppage. Like Lewis, Shorey is also an NEF-signed athlete. Also like Lewis, Shorey se kap bay fanatik nef yon montre yo sonje nan “Nef XIX.”
“Sa a se yon batay mwen te wè ap vini ak mwen te te vle pou yon tan long,” Di Shorey. “Tollison pa pral tounen desann, ak li se pa bezwen pè yo jwenn frape. I’m coming off the worst performance of my career, ak fanmi m, zanmi ak fanatik merite pi bon pase sa. I’m excited to get in there and mix it up with Lewis and give the NEF fans the best performance of my career.”
