ΓΙΑ ΑΜΕΣΗ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΕΥΣΗ: Lewiston, Μέιν (Μάιος 25, 2019) - Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Saturday, Ιούνιος 22 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 39: ALL-AMERICAN.” One of the featured fights on the amateur portion of the pro/am card will see Nate Boucher (4-3) tangle with Robert Presley (5-4) for the vacant NEF Amateur Flyweight Title.
This will be Boucher’s second attempt at capturing the flyweight belt. Then-undefeated, Boucher met Justin Witham (4-4) το Νοέμβριο 2017 for the championship in Portland, Μέιν. Witham went on to win the bout, and the title, via split decision on the judges’ scorecards. Many in attendance, ωστόσο, felt that Boucher had dominated the bout.
The loss to Witham was the start of a three-fight skid for the former wrestler from Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Boucher has rebounded and put himself back in contention for the flyweight strap with back-to-back first-round submission victories at “NEF 36” και “NEF 37,” αντίστοιχα.
Boucher represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Lewiston, Μέιν.
“Since coming up short on the judges’ scorecards in my first title fight—a fight that many fans feel I won—I have been focused on one single goal: getting another shot at the belt,” said Boucher. “Τελικά, that opportunity is here and I don’t plan on allowing anything to stand in my way of achieving my main goal which is winning the flyweight title! I’m doing everything that I need to do in order to make sure that the judges don’t play a role in the outcome on June 22nd. Special thanks to all of my sponsors and supporters for helping me on my way back to the belt fight—I vow to make you all proud at ‘All-American’ in Lewiston.”
Robert Presley, known as “Ο πολεμιστής,” comes to Maine all the way from Lancaster, Ohio to challenge for the flyweight title. He was victorious in his most recent bout last January via unanimous decision. With this being his tenth amateur bout, Presley plans on turning pro soon after. He represents both 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu and the Lancaster Academy of MMA.
“On June 22nd, I will be flying in from the little town of Newark, Ohio to go to war with Nate Boucher for the NEF flyweight title,” said Presley. “I don’t know much about Nate, but I will be honored to share the cage with him. Μετά από αυτόν τον αγώνα, I am turning pro. I’ve learned a lot from my amateur career and am ready to showcase my talent. Many thanks to NEF for giving me a chance to please their home crowd. I hope everyone is ready for a battle!"
