THE FIGHTING FIREMAN WILL MAKE NEF DEBUT ON JUNE 17
FOR UMIDDELBAR RELEASE: Lewiston, Maine (Mai 16, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Lørdag, Juni 17, 2017with the fight promotion’s next event, “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” The event will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Tidligere i dag, NEF announced the addition of a professional boxing bout to the fight card. Jason “The Fighting Fireman” Quirk returnerer til ringen mot Borngod Washington i en fire-runde super mellomvekt bout.
The fight will represent the first appearance for Quirk in the NEF boxing ring. After a stellar amateur career, Quirk turned pro in late 2014. He has been perfect (5-0, 3 KOs) over the course of his pro career thus far. When Quirk steps into the ring onJuni 17, it will have been more than a year-and-a-half since his last fight, and he is looking forward to competing once again. He trains out of the Portland Boxing Club (PBC) and works as a firefighter with the Portland Fire Department – Local 740 IAFF. Quirk also served his country for four years as a member of the Coast Guard.
“I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring and getting to work,” said Quirk immediately following a training session at PBC. “We’ve had a good camp so far, and I’m training hard for this fight. I’m grateful for NEF considering me for this card and I’m ready to put on a show.”
Borngod Washington is about as seasoned of a veteran as one will find in the boxing world. The native of Queens, New York has fought in the pro ranks since 2007. Washington’s career highlight came in 2011 when he scored a fourth-round TKO victory over Ricky Dawson (4-1, 1 KO), brother of former light-heavyweight champion of the world Chad Dawson (34-5, 19 KOs). Washington also took current light-heavyweight contender Sean Monaghan (28-0, 17 KOs) the distance in a four-round bout, losing a majority decision on the judges’ scorekort. He currently trains with John Wesley Meekins (25-5-2, 17 KOs) i New York. Meekins challenged Meldrick Taylor (38-8-1, 20 KOs) for the IBF Junior Welterweight Title in 1989.
“I’m excited to come to Maine and fight with my new trainer John Wesley Meekins in my corner,” sa Washington. “I’m returning to form and ready to go, and I thank NEF for the opportunity to fight in Maine. I’ve got people from different areas coming to see the fight, and I know I’ll be ready”.

KRAMLICH LOOKING TO PUT ON A SHOW FOR HOMETOWN FANS ON JUNE 17
FOR UMIDDELBAR RELEASE: Lewiston, Maine (Mai 15, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Saturday, Juni 17, 2017with the fight promotion’s next event, “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” The event will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Tidligere i dag, NEF announced the addition of a professional boxing bout to the fight card. Casey “Buzzsaw” Kramlich (7-0-1, 3 KOs), a native of nearby Gray, Maine, will take on Bryan Goldsby (4-3) in a super welterweight match scheduled for four rounds.
Kramlich is coming off the biggest win of his young career. Last month in Rhode Island, Kramlich handed Ray Oliveira, Jr. (7-1, 1 KO), son of former world title challenger Ray Oliveira, Sr. (47-11-2, 22 KOs), his first loss. The majority decision victory was considered somewhat of an upset in that Kramlich had traveled to Oliveira, Jr.’s turf and spoiled the local prospect’s win streak.
Now back in Maine and training with the Portland Boxing Club, Kramlich is looking forward to once again competing before his hometown fans. He is a two-fight veteran of the NEF ring with two TKO wins to his credit in Lewiston.
“I’m really looking forward to fighting back in Maine and on an NEF card,” said Kramlich. “I always love to put on a good show for the home town fans and that’s exactly what your gonna get June 17th. Goldsby seems like a seasoned veteran with good experience, but come fight night, he’s in the ring with a young hungry lion. I’ll be ready for war.”
Og, make no mistake about it, Bryan Goldsby will give Kramlich a war on June 17. A native of Macon, Georgia, Goldsby will be right at home fighting next to an MMA cage. He holds a record of 17-16 as a professional mixed-martial-artist. Faktisk, Goldsby is a four-fight veteran of the Bellator cage and even competed in the promotion’s Season Three bantamweight tournament. Goldsby has had success transitioning to the boxing ring. He won four of his first five bouts via decision before dropping his last two.
