FIRST NEF WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP WILL BE AWARDED ON NOVEMBER 3RD

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Augustus 23, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) will make its long-awaited debut in Portland on Vrydag, November 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Vroeër vandag, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts title bout to the card. Alex Walker (4-1) sal plaasvind op Hilarie Rose (4-3) to crown the first-ever NEF MMA Amateur Strawweight Women’s Champion. The fight is scheduled to be contested at the strawweight limit of 115 pond.

Alex Walker is a three-fight veteran of the NEF cage. Since losing her debut in the spring of 2015, Walker has been on a tear throughout the New England MMA circuit. She has won her last four in a row with three of those victories coming by way of submission. Op “NEF 29,this past June in Lewiston, Maine, Walker forced Sarah Ziehm (1-1) to tap to an arm bar. She trains with Team Kaze of Lancaster, New Hampshire. According to Walker, she is excited to have an opponent to strike with in the form of Rose.

This girl is a more than a game opponentshe’s also a good striker,” exclaimed Walker. “She won’t back down. This will be a hell of a stand up fight! We’re going to put on a good bout. I’m looking forward to having an opponent that will trade punches and not back down!”

If it is a striking match Walker is looking for, she will indeed find it in Hilarie Rose. Rose, who trains at USMMA in Bellingham, Massachusetts, burst onto the local fight scene in late 2014 with an ultra-brutal switch kick knockout of Tiffany McCoy (2-1). She has won her last two fights, and Rose is determined to end Walker’s streak to become the first-ever NEF women’s champion.

I’m looking forward to fighting Alex for NEF’s first woman’s strawweight championship,” said Rose. “Alex has won her last few fights and looks like she’s got quick arm locks. Met wat gesê het, her winning streak ends on November 3rd, and I’m bringing the NEF belt home with me. I’m excited to show Maine and the NEF fans my skills.

NEF se volgende gemengde martial-kuns gebeurtenis, “NEF 31: The Old Port,” will see the company debut in Portland, Maine at the brand new, state-of-the-art venue Aura. The event is scheduled to take place on Vrydag, November 3, 2017. Kaartjies is te koop nou op www.auramaine.com.

LAS VEGAS (Augustus 22, 2017) – Voormalige wêreldkampioen Juan Carlos Payano (19-1, 9 Uitklophoue) scored an impressive decision victory over Alexis Santiago (24-5-1, 8 Uitklophoue) in die belangrikste gebeurtenis vanPremier Boxing Champions TOE-tot-toon DINSDAE op FS1 en Boxing Championsop Fox Sports, Dinsdag night from Sam’s Town Live in Las Vegas and presented by Mayweather Promotions.
Payano set the pace early, closing the distance with Santiago and delivering consistent flurries of punches. Santiago was unable to keep Payano from charging forward early and seemed focused on landing a big counter.
The fight was defined by its rough nature and constant fighting on the inside. This led to a cut above Payano’s left eye after round three, but his corner was able to manage it and the cut was never a problem.
I felt like I was winning every single round,” said Payano. “There were small moments on the inside that I gave away but I think I did the better work each round.
Santiago had moments in the fight and landed big right hands late in the fourth and fifth rounds that got Payano’s attention, but the former champion was able to throw back with high volume and regain control of the fight.
The strategy was to wear him down and then really try to walk him down and take him out,” said Payano. “Santiago was a little too tough for his own good so I kept some distance at times and controlled the fight.
I felt the long layoff when I got in there,” said Santiago. “I was a little tight and I loaded up too much instead of using my speed.
Even when Santiago was able to corner Payano, the slippery fighter was able to fight his way off the ropes and turn the tide back in his favor. After the end of 10 rounds of super bantamweight action all three judgessaw the fight in Payano’s favor by scores of 100-90 en 99-91 twee keer.
I want my titles back,” said Payano. “I don’t care who is holding which titles at 118 en 122 pond. I’ll fight anyone and show I’m still a champion.
I thought the fight was a little closer,” said Santiago. “He did more work than me but I thought I had good moments. I wanted to box him a little more but I couldn’t find my range so I just tried to close down the gaps. We just have to go back to the drawing board and stay more active. I want to get a tune-up fight then get right back to fighting top guys.
The co-main event saw once-beaten Ladarius Miller (14-1, 4 Uitklophoue) score a unanimous decision victory over 2012 U.S. Olimpiese Jamel Herring (16-2, 9 Uitklophoue) in their 10-round lightweight bout.
The southpaws began the fight carefully, with Miller looking to establish his jab while Herring showed great movement early and tried to catch Miller in the pocket. The exchanges picked up in round two, although both men were still primarily throwing one punch at a time.
I know I out-jabbed him,” said Miller. “When we jabbed each other, I thought my jab was stronger than his. I gave him two different styles. There were times where I walked him down and times where I boxed him.
Miller began to pick up the aggressiveness in round three, following up his jab with a straight left hand over the top that snapped Herring’s head. Herring continued to focus on his movement and mixed-in good body work several times to finish off exchanges.
In round five Herring began to plant himself inside and looked to counter Miller, but was unable to do enough clean work to get the attention of the judges as Miller continued to throw back with left hands and movement that occasionally frustrated Herring.
“Ek het gedink dit was 'n goeie stryd,” Said Herring. “I thought when I came forward and pressed the fight he started retreating and moving.
Both men squared-off in the center of the ring for the final three rounds, as each looked to deliver a shot that would seal the fight in their favor. The flurry of action led to judgesdisagreements on all three of the final action-packed rounds.
In the end it was Miller’s consistent work throughout the fight that got him the nod from all three judges by scores of 98-92 en 97-93 twee keer.
“Ek dink 97-93 was the right score,” said Miller. “I took it easy in round nine and felt him out in the first two rounds. But the rest of the fight I felt like I dominated. It’s a process. I’m just climbing the ladder right now. I want to get another test and fight more strong fighters. I want to be on the biggest stages. I’m ready for the step up.
I thought I landed some heavy shots in there and was more aggressive,” Said Herring. “Obviously the judges saw it differently. I’ll get back with my team and see what’s next, but I did think I won the fight. I thought I won the last two rounds and pulled it out.

FLOYD Mayweather
“Wanneer daar 'n geveg van hierdie omvang is, dit gaan alles daaroor om kalmte te behou en dit is wat ek doen. Ek gaan daar uit en doen my werk en laat die res vir homself sorg. Dit is groot, die syfers waarvan ons gehoor het, hulle was mal.
“McGregor is 'n taai mededinger. Hy staan ​​onoorwonne op. Hy is nooit verlore wanneer hy slaan nie. Ek weet ek is in vir 'n taai stryd. Maar daar is een ding wat ek wel weet, hierdie stryd gaan nie die verte nie. Maak nie saak wat enigiemand sê, dit gaan nie die verte nie.
“Dit is werk. Dit is my werk. My werk is om teen die beste ouens te veg en mee te ding. Jy weet wanneer jou liggaam genoeg gehad het en dit is dit vir my. Ek het reeds my woord gegee dat dit my laaste geveg is. Ek het eenkeer my woord aan my kinders gegee, en een keer het ek my woord aan Al gegee, Ek het geweet dit is dit. Dit is 'n groot geleentheid. Watter beter manier om uit te gaan as met 'n knal?
“Ek gaan net daarheen en baklei. Ek bekommer my nie oor my rekord nie. Ek is geseën met hande en vinnige voete en 'n geweldige verstand. Dit sal alles uitgestal word Saterdag nag.
“Baie vegters wil nou net die geld hê. Hulle wil nie die harde werk vroeg in hul loopbane insit nie. Ek het die lang roete geneem en ek is al 'n rukkie hier. Ek is net mal oor die sport en om teen die beste ouens mee te ding.
“Dit gaan alles oor die toekoms en die bou van sterre. Mayweather Promotions is die toekoms van sport en vermaak. Dit sal hierdie week 'n wonderlike vertoning wees.
“Ek doen dit vir myself en my gesin, maar ek wil vir almal 'n wonderlike vertoning gee. Almal verdien 'n goeie vertoning. Die Pacquiao-stryd was nie opwindend genoeg nie. Dit was op Pacquiao, maar ek moet hierdie keer vir die aanhangers 'n wonderlike vertoning gee.”
CONOR MCGREGOR
“Floyd kan praat waaroor hy ook al wil praat. Hy kan enige soort rommel praat wat hy wil, want hy praat met die nuwe God van boks.
“Ek hou van die skuif van vyf tot drie minute rondtes. Ek voel asof ek 'n soliede enjin gebou het wat my deur die res van my loopbaan gaan hou en my in die stryd gaan help. Ons het die werk ingesit. Ek het al baie 12-ronders geveg.
“Die Iere rol in en wanneer ons ook al inrol, ons neem oor. Dit was ongelooflik om al die Ierse ondersteuners vandag te sien. Dit gaan 'n groot skouspel wees.
“As mense my grootte miskyk, krag en jeug, hulle behoort nie te wees nie. Ek is baie vol vertroue in daardie eienskappe. Ek glo ek sal hom vroeg uitslaan.
“As jy kyk na die manier waarop ek veg, Ek is 'n vinnige beginner. Ek kom uit en stamp mense dadelik. Met agt ons handskoene, Ek sien hom nie meer as een of twee rondtes hou nie.
“Ek is my eie man en ek voel ek is beter as Floyd. Wanneer dit kom by Saterdag nag, hy sal nie vir my voorbereid wees nie.
“Ek kan nie wag om in die Saterdag aand en tree voor my aanhangers op en neem my plek bo-aan hierdie sport in.”
FRANCISCO FONSECA
“Ons is gereed vir enigiets wat Gervonta Davis sal bring. Ons het 'n wonderlike oefenkamp gehad en ek is in 'n optimale toestand om daardie titel te gaan wen.
“Ek is gereed en opgewonde om hier in Las Vegas te wees vir hierdie groot uitdaging. Dit is ongelooflik om 'n kans te hê om vir 'n wêreldtitel te veg.
“Dit was nog altyd my droom om hier in Las Vegas te veg. Ek gaan sterk begin van die eerste rondte af. As 'n uitklophou kom, dit kom, maar wat ek wel weet is, is dat ek die ring gaan verlaat met daardie wêreldtitel Saterdag nag.”
NATHAN slim
“Ek is net mal oor hierdie plek. Dit is my gunsteling stad op die planeet. Om hier in Las Vegas te veg en my wêreldtitel te verdedig, is wonderlik. Badou is 'n topvegter en dit gaan 'n taai stryd wees. Hy veg teen 'n gevestigde ligte swaargewig soos ek. Ek is 'n tweemalige kampioen van die wêreld en hy gaan uitvind waaroor ek gaan.
“Ek het net vir hom gesê welkom by die afdeling. Hy gaan op die harde manier uitvind. Ek gaan hom 'n onbeskofte inleiding tot die afdeling gee en hom wys hoe 'n wêreldkampioen dit doen.
“Dit is 'n interessante geveg met twee wêreldklas vegters. Ek gaan hier weg met die oorwinning Saterdag nag.
“Dit is reeds 'n groot geveg met Badou Jack, maar om deel te wees van hierdie geleentheid, dit is werklik histories. Dit is 'n spesiale gevoel.”
JACK Badou
“Op die oomblik is ek net opgewonde om hier voor die aanhangers te wees. Ek kan nie wag om 'n show op te stel nieSaterdag nag. Ek gaan Nathan Cleverly uitslaan.
“Dit is die beste kamp wat ek van my loopbaan gehad het. Ek het 'n wonderlike span en ons het goed saamgewerk. Ek is gereed om in die ring te klim.
“Dit is die grootste verhoog waarop jy kan wees. Al my spanmaats het hard geoefen en die hele Mayweather Promotions-stal is gereed om te veg.”
ANDREW TABITI
“Ek is baie opgewonde en ek is dankbaar vir almal wat vandag hier uitgekom het. Dit is 'n wonderlike kans vir my om te skyn.
“Dit is wonderlik om hierdie kaart met my Mayweather Promotions-stal te deel. Ons werk hard en ons is regtig besig om hard te oefen vir hierdie geleentheid.
“Steve Cunningham het goeie werk in sy loopbaan gedoen, maar dit is tyd vir 'n nuwe gesig van die Amerikaanse cruiserweights. Ek kry die oorwinning, dis al wat daar is.”
STEVE CUNNINGHAM
“Ek voel baie jonger as my ouderdom. Ek voel wonderlik en ek is gereed om te rock. Ek doen my praatwerk in die ring en ek kan nie wag om daar in te kom nie.
“Dit is wonderlik om op hierdie verhoog te wees. Dit is my eerste keer op 'n betaal-per-kyk en dit is ongelooflik. Dit is 'n groot geveg en dit is 'n seën om daar te wees.
“Ek maak nie voorspellings nie maar ek kom baklei en ek kom wen. Jy het 'n jong vegter wat my kom afhaal, maar ek gaan hom wys wat ek weet.”

WWE SIGNEE TO CHALLENGE GULLIVER FOR HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE IN PORTLAND

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Augustus 22, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) will make its debut in Portland on Vrydag, November 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” Vroeër vandag, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts title bout to the card. Nick Gulliver (4-0) will defend the NEF MMA Amateur Heavyweight Title against Terrance Jean-Jacques (1-0).

NEF is an amazing organization and I love fighting for them,” said Gulliver. “This will be my fifth fight for NEF and to me, this fight is different. During my fighting career I’ve always been fighting for someone, or something, and I’ve never really had time or the energy to really enjoy it. This fight I’m fighting to prove to myself that I’m good enough to be the heavyweight champion. People tell me every day after sparring or training that I’m good, but I don’t see it yet. I don’t see what others see and this is a time for me to see and believe. This camp I’m going to work and find myself in the process.

Gulliver, a product of First Class MMA and the Foundry BJJ, has been nothing short of perfect over the course of his amateur career with NEF. “The Guardian,” as he is known amongst his fans and teammates, has finished all four of his previous opponents, including a third-round technical knockout of Yorgan DeCastro (2-4) last fall to claim the title belt. DeCastro is the first, and only, opponent to date to make it out of the first round with Gulliver.

I have a lot to prove to myself and I’m going to look into the mirror on November 3rd and see the man I’ve wanted to be in the cage and out,” continued Gulliver. “I’m going to work as much as I can and never give up. Something I always repeat to myself is ‘cowards never start, the weak never finish, winners never quit,’ and I’m not quitting on November 3rd.

Terrance Jean-Jacques brings a solid amateur wrestling background with him to the NEF cage. The Haverhill, Massachusetts native put together an impressive 22-6 record as the starting heavyweight for the NCAA Division I Iowa Hawkeyes as a freshman. He later transferred to Rhode Island College and was a runner-up at the 2015 Division III wrestling championships. Jean-Jacques signed a developmental deal with the WWE in the spring of 2016 to train at their performance center in Florida.

Everybody fights for different things,” remarked Jean-Jacques. “My ding is, I’m not doing this for anyone else but my daughter and myself. It’s much bigger than this fight. I’m reinventing myself and it’s kill or be killed. This will be the best version of myself to date. I have goals that I’m charging at in an unstoppable manner and I’m coming to get it. This is my destiny.

I want to thank my training partners and my family,” said Gulliver in closing. “I want to thank FirstClass MMA and The Foundry BJJ for everything they have given me. I’ve been training with FirstClass MMA and John Raio for almost three years now and I’ve been training with The Foundry BJJ going on eight years now. I appreciate all they do for me. I can name over 100 people that I train with every week that help push me, day in and day out, and I can’t thank them enough for it.

“Hierdie stryd sal 'n oorlog wees. If you put me and my opponent, Terrance, side by side and took bets, I’d be the loser all day. Shit, even I would bet against me if it was about size and looks. But this fight will be won by one thing and one thing only and anyone that knows me knows what I’m about to say. This fight will be won with heart. I’m not great at anything I do. I fail at most things, but I have a lot of heart and I push. Sometimes in life heart is what people need most. I’m looking to see what I’ve got on November 3rd and I’m looking forward to November 4th when I can wake up and see that I had enough heart and that I am the still the champ. Thank you to everyone involved in my life and thanks again for this fight I greatly appreciate it. Thank you to Terrance Jean-Jacques for coming to Portland to fight. Ook, just a quick thank you to my friend Josh Jones, who made me remember the fun in this game again. He got me motivated to fight in this one. I’m hoping this fight is just like watching fireworks at a baseball game. If you’ve never seen fireworks at a baseball game come to this fight and I’ll show you the feeling.

Marcos Hernandez gives his thoughts on training camp, his upcoming showdown with Newman, en meer.
On his current training camp with new trainer Henry Ramierz
This time around I was in better shape entering camp. I’ve brought on Henry Ramierz as the lead trainer in my corner and we are working great together. Riverside, Kalifornië, has been home for me for the last five weeks. Ramierz had me go back to working on the fundamentals of boxing. He’s not trying to change my style, he’s just letting me be myself, while working on some of my weaknesses. My dad Joseph will still be with me working my corner. He knows me best and I will always have him by my side when I fight. It’s been a very productive training camp to say the least.
On his matchup with Kevin Newman II
I know I’m facing a tough undefeated fighter in Newman, so my preparation is at an all-time high. Henry and I are focused on his tendencies, and we see some flaws that we feel we can exploit. It will be an exciting fight for the fans, that I can guarantee.
On moving up to the contracted weight of 163 £. …
I’ve never fought above the middleweight division. This will be my first time fighting this heavy at 163 pond. Persoonlik, I feel it’s going to a good thing for me to fight at this weight. I’m 6’1, so making 154 pounds was getting tough. I feel I can still make that weight but right now I’m right on weight and my body feels fantastic.
On rebounding from his first defeat
Going into this training camp, I feel a lot better. Nou, I feel my back is against the wall, so I’m going to give it my all when I step into the ring Saterdag. Looking back, I know I could have done better. Losing my first bout really has me motivated going into this fight.
On fighting in one of the biggest events in boxing history
I’m extremely excited to be fighting on a card that will be shown to millions around the world. It’s not everyday you get this type of opportunity. With the world watching, I’m going to leave everything in the ring on fight night. I’m going to show the world that I have what it takes to become an elite fighter.
