THE FLYWEIGHTS WILL COMPETE FOR GOLD IN REMATCH AT NEF XVIII

Lewiston, Maine (Aprile 24, 2015) - Combattimenti New England (NEF), Numero uno di promozione lotta regionale dell'America, terrà la sua XVIII-arti marziali miste (MMA) evento, “NEF XVIII: Fatto in America,” su Sabato, Giugno 13, 2015 al Androscoggin Bank Colisee a Lewiston, Maine. Proprio oggi, the promotion announced that the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Flyweight Champion will be determined that evening when Dustin Veinott (3-3) rivincite “Assonnato” Norman Fox (4-1) at the flyweight limit of 125-pounds. Veinott and Fox initially met in their double amateur debut at “NEF IX” a Biddeford, Maine nearly two years ago with Fox taking the win via first-round technical knockout (WHO).

 

Dustin Veinott, a striking coach at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) a Auburn, Maine, got off to a slow start in his MMA career, losing his first three bouts in the NEF cage. Not one to give up due to a setback, Veinott came roaring back and is currently on a three-fight win streak. Infatti, he has defeated all three of his most recent opponents in the first round, two by submission and one by TKO. Veinott was considering retiring from the cage after his most recent victory over Dave Brown (1-3), but decided against it when the chance to fight for the flyweight title was presented. Regardless of the outcome this time around, Veinott predicts an exciting contest against Fox.

 

This is going to be a very entertaining fight,” said Veinott of the rematch. “Don’t blink though because this fight will not go the distanceeither Norman or myself will be finished during the fight. So expect a high-action fight between two guys that are at the top of their game right now.

 

Norman Fox is undefeated in the NEF cage. The only loss of his career to date came on a fight card in Plymouth, Massachusetts on which Fox was competing for a regional title. He is currently a member of Ryan Cowette’s (2-2) MMA Athletix gym, as well as Cowette’s Victory Church ministry. Fox realizes that he and Veinott are not the same fighters who stepped into the cage for the first time on that balmy night in the summer of 2013.

 

Normally I don’t like rematches, but Dustin and I have grown as fighters so anything can happen,” said Fox when reached for comment. “Once they lock the cage door, it’s all in God’s hands.

 

Prossimo evento di MMA di NEF, “NEF XVIII: Fatto in America” sarà provenire dal Androscoggin Bank Colisee a Lewiston, Maine giugno 13, 2015. Biglietti “NEF XVIII” partono da soli $25 e sono già in vendita su www.TheColisee.com o chiamando il botteghino Colisee a207.783.2009 x 525.

Collina, President of Programming, BET Networks. “Roc Nation is doing very exciting things in the entertainment space and we are excited to partner with them on this groundbreaking deal positioning BET Networks as a go-to destination for premier live boxing events.

"On Giugno 20, we will once again provide fans a night of exciting trono di boxe combattimenti, live musical entertainment and an unprecedented fan experience.”

 

“I’m very excited to be coming back on Giugno 20 at Oracle Arena in my hometown of Oakland which has been a long time coming,"Ha detto Ward. “I’m equally excited to be fighting on BET in front of a potential viewership of over 90 milioni di case. Come un combattente, this diversifies my portfolio and puts me in front of a whole different audience. I have an extremely tough fighter in front of me in Paul Smith who’s looking to pull the upset, but I can’t let that happen. I have to be on my best game to turn Smith away and beat him the way I want to beat him. Come sempre, I’m ready to put on a tremendous performance in front of my hometown fans and those watching on BET. This is a fight you don’t want to miss.”

 

“I cannot wait to get back in the ring and test myself against a class act like Andre Ward. I proved that I belong at the top level with my performances against Arthur Abraham and this is a challenge that I am relishing,"Ha detto Smith. “Andre is a top pound-for-pound fighter and someone I respect a lot, but he has only boxed once in almost three years and I will give it everything I have got. I am fresh and confident going into this fight. It’s a massive opportunity for me and one that I took with both hands when it was offered. I have spent a lot of time boxing in the United States and I look forward to returning for this fight.”

 

Known for his strong character and integrity outside the ring and his killer instinct inside it, Andre Ward’s skill and talent were apparent early in his outstanding amateur career. Ha collezionato tutti i titoli nei libri, culminante con una medaglia d'oro nella divisione dei pesi massimi leggeri al 2004 Giochi Olimpici di Atene. Come l'unico pugile americano di sesso maschile per rivendicare l'oro olimpico dal 1996, Ward è entrato del calibro di Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard e Oscar De La Hoya. Egli è diventato professionista nel dicembre 18, 2004, segnando una seconda vittoria per KO tecnico rotonda su Chris Molina allo Staples Center in una lotta che è stata trasmessa in diretta su HBO. Egli ha continuato a racimolare 26 più vittorie da allora, la costruzione di una legione sempre crescente di fan nel processo. Dopo essere diventato il medio campione Ring Magazine e WBA Super Mondiale, in aumento al posto numero due sulla lista libbra-per-pound e vincendo il 2011 Fighter of the Year Award (ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Ring Magazine e Boxing Writers Association of America), è stato annunciato che Ward ha firmato un accordo esclusivo di promozione con Roc Nation Sport nel mese di gennaio 2015, l'apertura di un nuovo capitolo della sua carriera leggendaria boxe. Now the Bay Area product is ready to return to the ring on Giugno 20 alla Oracle Arena di fronte ai suoi fans città natale a Oakland, California.

 

Paul “Real Gone Kid” Smith enters his fight against pound-for-pound star Ward coming off of two heroic performances against WBO Super Middleweight World Champion Arthur Abraham. Smith challenged the Armenian-German for his title in Kiel, Germany in September 2014 and put on the performance of his career in his world title first shot. The 32-year-old native of Liverpool was the clear winner of large parts of the fight and celebrated at the bell in front of a hushed partisan crowd that thought that Abraham had been dethroned. Smith was not expecting the wide scorecards that were read out in favor of the hometown fighter and, judging by the far-reaching outrage at the lopsided numbers, neither were the majority of the boxing world and beyond, with Smith receiving support from some of Britain’s biggest sports stars on social media. A rematch was the only possible scenario and, like a true champion, Abraham duly obliged. Smith returned to Germany in February of this year to face Abraham again, this time in Berlin, but Abraham was a different fighter the night of their second fight, successfully defending his belt against a brave challenge from Smith. Once again the judges’ were forced to give a verdict and this time a decision win by Abraham was met with no outcry of controversy. Su Giugno 20, “Real Gone Kid” will return to the ring and once again venture into hostile territory to take on one of boxing’s best, looking to silence the crowd.

 

Ward vs. Fabbro, un 12 round presentato da Roc Nation Sports, si svolge Sabato, Giugno 20 a Oracle Arena di Oakland, California, sarà trasmessa in diretta su BET e streaming globale su TIDAL.com a 10:00 PM ET/7:00 PM PT ed è presentato in collaborazione con Matchroom Sport.

‘It’s Really Happening’ Builds on Original ‘Week of Greatness’ Spot


Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE: FL)
Aprile 23, 2015

NEW YORK, Aprile 23, 2015 - Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE: FL), the New York-based specialty athletic retailer, today debuted a new television spot, "It’s Really Happening,” in celebration of the highly-anticipated and long-awaited bout between champion boxers on Sabato, Maggio 2.

The new spot builds on Foot Locker’s “Week of Greatness” commercial from November 2014, which played on enduring attempts to schedule the oft-rumored mega fight, ending with Pacquiao believing that the fight was happening back then. In this newest commercial, Pacquiao’s business manager tells him that the fight really is going to happen, which at first surprises Pacquiao, then he again reacts with his signature elation made famous in the original spot.

“Our original ‘Week of Greatness’ spot with Manny Pacquiao last November was a big hit with our customers. It parodied the well-documented opposition of the fighters to agree upon a deal,” said Stacy Cunningham, Executive Vice President of Marketing for Foot Locker. “So when the two sides finally announced that a deal had been made, we saw an opportunity to follow up, tapping into the hilarity of the original spot. We are excited to launch ‘It’s Really Happening,’ as part of Foot Locker’s signature ‘Approved’ marketing platform.”

The spot was created by worldwide agency BBDO.
