Lewiston, Maine (Februar 12, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Ameriški številka ena regionalna promocija boj, vrne na ANDROSCOGGIN Bank Colisée v Lewiston, Maine na April 11, 2015 s svojimi sedemnajstem mešane borilne veščine- (MMA) Dogodek. Že danes, the company announced the addition of a professional catchweight bout to the fight card. “Odporna 2.0” Derek Shorey (1-1) se bo sestal vrača John “First Class” Ray (2-6) v “gume tekmo” pri teži, boj za 150 funtov.
Shorey zmagal na zadnji sestanek med njima na “NEF XIV” last September via first-round submission. He gained revenge for a submission loss suffered at the hands of Raio when the pair had fought as amateurs two years earlier. The “NEF XIV” bout je napredoval kot starostne tekmi za Raio ki so se odločili za korak stran od aktivnega tekmovanja, da se osredotoči na njegovo družino in fitnesa First Class MMA v Topsham, Maine. Raio says that he has now found the balance in his life to return to the NEF MMA cage.
“Sem se upokojil od boja proti lanskega septembra, ker sem želel preživeti več časa s svojo družino,” Said Ray. “They were really supportive during my career and I owed it to them. I have found a balance with my new job at BIW. I am able to train, spend time with my family and operate my gym each day. I love MMA and never stopped training. I was not happy with the way my last fight ended and when the opportunity to compete against Derek Shorey again presented itself, Nisem mogel obrniti navzdol. The idea to fight Derek came from a post on FB that Ben Raven made on Matt Denning’s page a few months ago. Derek seemed interested in a rubber match. Ko bomo dobili podporo od moje družine, Stopil sem v stik z Matt Petersen in nas ujema.”
The two previous bouts between Shorey and Raio had been agreed to at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds. Shorey feels he will have an advantage due to the 150-pound catchweight where he will have to cut very little or even no weight at all.
“I’m excited to fight John again,” je vzkliknil Shorey. “There’s almost no weight to cut for a fight at 150, so I’ll be fighting him at full strength, and ultimately as the best version of myself that I’ve ever known. I’m very confident that I will be in the best shape of my life, in zaradi nedavnih osebnih dogodkov, I think I’m a little colder now than I’ve ever been. Training at Young’s MMA in Bangor as often as I can, da sta starša samohranilca zdaj, bo prav tako občutno izboljšala mojo igro, in every aspect of the sport. John is a really good wrestler and a lot stronger than me, but no one has ever seen what I know I’m capable of, in nameravam to spremeniti.”
