BOYINGTON RETURNING TO NEF CAGE AFTER TWO-YEAR ABSENCE

Lewiston, Maine (December 29, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) vender tilbage til Lewiston på Lørdag, Februar 3, 2018 med kampen fremme næste mixed-martial-arts begivenhed, “NEF 32: Super Lørdag.” Tidligere i dag, NEF announced the addition of a professional catchweight bout to the card. Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (14-11) har underskrevet til ansigt Taylor Trahan (7-8) på en kamp vægt på 150 pounds.

The fight will be the first for Boyington in the NEF cage since February 2016 when he successfully defended the NEF Lightweight Title against Jon Lemke (7-8). It was Boyington’s third defense of the belt since winning it in the late summer of 2014. After the Lemke defense, Boyington relinquished the championship in order to sign with the World Series of Fighting (WSOF).

While he has fought on many of the largest stages in the world over the past two years, including Madison Square Garden in New York City and halfway across the globe in Russia, Boyington is looking forward to his homecoming and the opportunity to once again fight before his many Maine fans.

“Mand, I couldn’t possibly be more excited to get inside the NEF cage, where I have molded my career, built my fan base and learned so much about myself over the years,” Said Boyington. “I am so hungry to entertain people that I can guarantee everyone will want to see what’s going down! I live for this, og February 3rd, there will be some of the best MMA that has ever been on display from the State of Maine, and I’m grateful and humbled by the opportunity. My opponent is a respectable guy that I believe loves to fight and I want that in there. I wish him the very best in preparation, and I thank (NEF owners) Matt (Peterson) and Nick (DiSalvo) once again for providing me a platform.

Boyington currently owns and operates Boyington’s Taekwondo of Bangor, Maine. He also trains with Young’s MMA in the same city.

Taylor Trahan is a familiar face to NEF fans. He has competed twice for the promotion in the past. Trahan submitted Matt Denning (5-7) in the first round of their meeting atNEF 25.He returned to Maine just weeks later atNEF 26in a losing effort to Aaron Lacey (4-1). Trahan is coming off a win over Conor Barry (3-2) last month in New Hampshire. He represents Team Link of Hooksett.

“I’m looking forward to returning to NEF,” said Trahan. “They always put on a good show and treat the fighters right. I’m really looking forward to fighting Bruce. He definitely is the most experienced fighter I’ll be going up against so far.”

NEF næste mixed-martial-arts begivenhed, “NEF 32: Super Lørdag,” vil se virksomheden gøre sin tilbagevenden til Androscoggin Bank Colisee i Lewiston, Maine. The event is scheduled to take place on Lørdag, Februar 3, 2018. Tickets are on-sale now online at www.TheColisee.com.

M-1 Arena grand opening and M-1 Challenge 100 to highlight 21st season for M-1 Global

In January the new M-1 Arena is scheduled to open in Saint Petersburg
SANKT PETERSBORG, Rusland (December 29, 2017) — The grand opening of the state-of-the-art M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburgh, in addition to the celebration of M-1 Challenge 100 later in 2018, will highlight M-1 Global’s 21st årstid.
Plans in 2018 also include more events, expansion into new countries and, som nr. 2 MMA organization in the world, to keep giving its fans world-class competition, entertaining match-ups, innovative developments and even a few surprises.
M-1 Global præsident Vadim Finkelchtein discussed a few of these subjects (se nedenunder) prior to the holidays.
Can you tell us about the new M-1 Arena?
VF: “M-1 Arena is an absolutely unique structure seating a maximum of 3000. It is built in the form of the Colosseum, stone and wood, with an incredible dome made of glulam, which gives the place perfect acoustics. Not only can we promote sporting events, but also music concerts. M-1 Arena allows us to have even more events and realize new ideas like, for example, a reality show. M-1 Arena will be multifunctional but martial arts will be the main form of entertainment held there.
M-1 Challenge was more international last year in terms of showcasing more fighters from different countries like USA, Portugal, UK, Canada, Sydkorea, Porcelæn, etc. Do you plan to expand your fighter base even more this year and, if so, what countries are you targeting for fighters?
VF: “Usually, we hire fighters from countries where our events are being broadcasted. If we have new contracts with the countries from where we don’t have representative fighters, or only have a few of them, we are going to increase their number. The same for countries where we’ve held events because fans desire to see the local athletes fighting in the Rage. We give them an opportunity to see that.
With the success of female MMA stars around the world do you plan to add a female division in 2018?
VF: “One day we will probably create a female division in M-1 Global. Lige nu, selv, we don’t have enough strong female fighters to do it, endnu. As soon as we are ready to make this happen, it will be done, but we don’t want to open a new division just to check the box. We want the best fighters to compete at the highest level.
M-1 Global is closing in on your 100th M-1 Challenge event. Do you plan to promote your 100th event in 2018? If so can you provide any additional information about when, hvor, special plans, etc.
VF: M-1 Global has already promoted more than 200 begivenheder, Herunder 85 M-1 Challenges, which was created in 2008. I think that this event will happen either in Saint-Petersburg or in Moscow, but we still have a lot of time left and a dozen other events before it. We are going to take care of it a bit later.
M-1 has developed fighters who’ve moved on to the UFC and other organizations. How do you feel about that trend? Does it frustrate you that you to spend time building a fighter and then have him move on, or do you look at it as a compliment that M-1 Global develops fighters who can compete in the UFC and any other organization?
VF: “We can consider this situation from different perspectives. I’m not happy to let my best fighters go, selvfølgelig, men det er hvad det er, and we are not ready to compete with UFC yet. Sometimes our fighters leave us. From another perspective, we are happy that our fighters who leave keep winning fights and become the top competitors in other promotions. It proves that the level of M-1 Global fighters is equal to the level of UFC fighters. The top athletes who left M-1 Global for UFC are in top positions there and other promotions don’t have such results. Other organization may make their fighters popular but, as soon as they move to UFC, they start losing and get released.
Our company is probably the second MMA promotion in the world and when some fighters move to the strongest league on the planet, they take a step forward, which I like much better than when they move to weaker promotions than M-1 Global just to make more money.
Any plans to do anything different this year than in the past, outside of the grand opening of the M-1 arena and possible 100th event?
VF: “The main difference will be that we are going to have our own home, M-1 Arena, which means we will be able to hold even more events. We’d like to have two events each month, 24 events a year. We opened our own TV channel (M1global.tv) and next year, MMA fans from former Soviet Republics will have an opportunity to watch all the fights. Using our iOS and Android App, viewers from all over the world can watch old and new fights right now, and next year we are going to make it even better. We are also going to create our own studio to produce different content, probably a new reality show with fighters from different countries.
Will you have showcase M-1 Medieval fights this coming year?
VF: “Apparently, we will have some medieval fights in 2018, but the only issue is that we have a lot of fighters under contract, so it is not easy to find a place for M-1 Medieval fights on our cards. We make knight fights in regions where they are popular, like in Ingushetia and Finland in 2017, because fans demonstrated to us that they want to see them. I hope one day we’ll have more resources for them.

Her er hvad de krigere havde at sige om deres januar 20 dueller og mere:
ROBERT PÅSKE (20-0, 14 KOS) – Gør tredje forsvar af IBF Letvægts verden titel
“Denne kamp kan definitivt sat en god tone for mig i 2018. Jeg har tænkt mig at være at gøre en erklæring med denne kamp. Mine sidste tre kampe, jeg har ikke fået en knockout. Jeg har tænkt mig at være at give mine fans og kæmpe fans et godt show.
“Jeg har tænkt mig at bruge min rækkevidde og længde og ødelægge denne fyr udefra. Alle min karriere har jeg kæmpet kortere fyre. Hver kort fyr kæmper ikke det samme. Men du får i ringen, og du føler ham ud og foretage justeringer.
“Der er ikke noget særligt, at jeg er nødt til at forberede sig til med Fortuna. Jeg tager hver kamp de samme. Hver fighter kæmper forskellige, så du komme derind, føler ham ud og foretage justeringer, som du går sammen. Jeg er ikke bekymret for ham at være en southpaw. Jeg har konfronteret masser af venstreorienterede i min karriere, og i de amatører. Det er ingen problemer overhovedet.
“Jeg tror det, der gør mig mere farlig bokser i denne kamp er at have den højde, jeg gør, og det stansning magt og hastighed og den tankegang samt. Min tankegang er, at jeg ikke har tænkt mig derind for at lege med ham. Jeg er klar til at ødelægge.
“Mine mål for 2018 er til at fange flere titler og få forening anfald. Vi havde et par mestre i vægtklassen, men det lader til, at ingen er villig til at kæmpe de andre mestre. Vi er villige til at gøre, hvad det tager, kæmpe den, der har titlerne. Vi er villige til at indfange alle de titler, når de andre gutter er villige til at melde sig til kampene.”
JAVIER FORTUNA (33-1-1, 23 KOS) – Tidligere Super Fjervægt verdensmester
“Min forberedelse til denne kamp går meget godt. Jeg har arbejdet i Den Dominikanske Republik, men jeg er kommet tilbage til Boston til at afslutte min uddannelse. Lige nu er vi ved 75% og lukker på 100%. Jeg vil være helt forberedt, når det er tid til at kæmpe. Min forberedelse og min strategi gør mig mere farlig fyr.
“Jeg ser dette som ingen anden kamp, ​​som jeg har haft før, fordi hver modstander er anderledes. Alle har deres egen niche på dette niveau, noget, der virker for dem. Hans niche er, at han er høj. Han bruger det til sin fordel. Men det er ikke noget, som jeg ikke kan overvinde. Jeg har kæmpet høje fyre før.
“Jeg foretrækker mine modstandere til at være højere. Det spiller ind, hvad jeg er i stand til at gøre. Jeg har aldrig haft et problem med højere modstandere. Abner Cotto (5-10) er en af ​​høje fyre, jeg kæmpede. Jeg kæmpede i Chicago og lægge på en stor præstation. (Fortuna scorede et 5th runde KO mod Cotto)
“Mit mål for 2018 er at bekæmpe alle de øverste elite krigere i min vægtklasse, og jeg prøver at blive nævnt som en af ​​de bedste i sporten. Jeg vil virkelig gerne vinde en anden verden titel i en anden vægtklasse. Det ville være den største øjeblik hidtil i min karriere at få en anden verden titel.”
MARCUS BROWNE (20-0, 15 KOS) – Top 10 Vurderet på 175 lbs. (WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF)
“Min modstander (Francy Ntetu, 17-1, 4 KOS) ligner en holdbar, hård fyr. Jeg ser denne kamp bliver meget spændende for fans, så længe det varer. Jeg så en lille smule af tape på ham. Jeg ved, han kommer altid i tip-top form, og jeg hører, at han er konsekvent i sin præstation i ringen. I just know I’m going to have to be sharp on Jan. 20.
“Det er altid en ære at kæmpe her i hjemmet og på Barclays Centre. Det er særligt at være i stand til at udføre foran disse fans, og jeg kan ikke vente med at sætte på en god præstation fører op til Spence vs. Peterson kamp.
“Denne kamp kunne sætte mig i den position, som jeg har brug for at være i at kæmpe for en verden titel. Jeg kan ikke mangle på nogen måde. Jeg er nødt til at komme ud stærk med en stor præstation fra start til slut og efterlader ingen tvivl derinde.
“For 2018, Jeg ønsker at blive en verdensmester. Jeg er fast besluttet på tomake det ske i år. That vision starts on Jan. 20 at Barclays Center against Francy Ntetu.
FRANCY NTETU (17-1, 4 KOS) – Kæmpede David Benavidez på Barclays Centre i juni 2015
I know Marcus Browne is probably taking me lightly and thinks he will simply go through me. Jeg håber, det er tilfældet, fordi det vil være et chok for ham, fans og hans team, når jeg tager hans plads i linje for en titel. Jeg ønsker at møde Eleider Alvarez i vores hjemby Montreal, efter at jeg får denne sejr.
“Min tidligere kamp på Barclays Center mod den nuværende WBC mester David Benavidez var naturligvis en meget dårlig beslutning af dommeren til at stoppe kampen, især når jeg var ved at vinde runden og Benavidez blev langsommere. Jeg var ved at blive stærkere, mens han var ved at blive svagere.
“Jeg har aldrig været skadet og aldrig blevet tabt i en kamp. Jeg vil have Marcus at udfordre sig selv og se, om han kan gøre noget ingen andre har. Jeg er spændt på at være i en kamp af denne størrelsesorden. Marcus, er det tid for os at give fans, hvad de ønsker!”
ADAM Kownacka (16-0, 13 KOS) – Oprindeligt fra Polen & kæmper ud af Brooklyn
“Denne kamp vil være endnu et skridt mod at blive en mester. Jeg ved, at jeg har tænkt mig at skulle arbejde meget hårdt og bevise, at jeg fortsætter med at bygge videre på min sejr mod Szpilka. Fra videoen har jeg set på Iago Kiladze (26-1, 18 KOS), Han bevæger sig meget, så jeg vil være behov for at afskære ringen. Uanset hvad han bringer til ringen, Jeg vil gerne have et svar til.
“Tre år i træk nu har jeg kæmpet i januar. Jeg elsker starter ud året stærk. Min kone og jeg startede faktisk en tradition for “Kownacki Family Run” på midnat on New Year’s Eve. Da jeg altid forbereder en kamp omkring nytår, vi var vi kunne lige så godt have det sjovt, mens vi arbejder. Så, vi har nogle venner komme ud og køre et par miles med os rundt i kvarteret i løbet af fyrværkeri. Det er sjovt og hjælper med at få mig klar.
“I sidste ende, Jeg glæder mig til at blive den bedste i den tunge afdeling. Det endelige mål for i år er at blive verdensmester. Men det allerførste skridt tager Iago Kiladze meget alvorligt. I can’t look past Januar 20 lige nu. Jeg har en hård modstander, som vil udfordre og gøre mig til en bedre fighter i det lange løb.”
Iago Kiladze, Tredje kamp siden flytte op til tunge division (2-0, 2 KOS)
I feel great and my training has been terrific. Min træner er Freddie Roach nu. Jeg diskuteret med (IBF cruiservægt Champion) Murat Gassiev tre gange for nylig, som er fantastisk forberedelse til mig. I believe I can knockout Kownacki but if I have to go the distance I’m prepared for that. Uanset, Jeg vil være sejrrig. Jeg er føler, at jeg er den mere kvalificerede fighter og der vil vise i ringen.
“Dette er en stor kamp for min karriere og en fantastisk start for 2018. I know that if I win this fight I’ll be that much closer to a world title opportunity.
“Mit mål er at være en verdensmester i slutningen af 2018. I want to continue improving and learning under Freddie and with his guidance I’m confident of success.

Billetter til LFA 30 – Millender vs. Barnes are available for purchase NOW at CageTix.com/LFA.
Millender (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner this past August at LFA 20.
While the main event will feature a rivalry between two of the top welterweights in LFA, the co-main event will feature a rivalry between two of the LFA featherweight division’s most talented jiu-jitsu practitioners.
Fernando Padilla (10-1) put the division on notice in October, when he submitted longtime RFA vet Darrick Minner with a Triangle-Armbar in the first round of their co-main event bout at LFA 25. Padilla, who is a 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu brown belt, has now won 90% of his fights by first round stoppage. He will now face a man equally dangerous on the ground when he meets Talison Soares (9-2) in the co-main event of LFA 30. Soares is a jiu-jitsu black belt from the famed Checkmat BJJ team who has made a name for himself competing in his native Brazil. Soares has a 100% finishing rate in the nine bouts he has won and will now make his international debut in the co-main event of LFA 30.
