VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Lewiston, Maine (April 10, 2017) – New England Fights (NEF) bied die volgende geleentheid vir gemengde vechtkunste aan “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” Saterdag, April 29, 2017 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine. Vroeër vandag, the fight promotion announced that “Onsplinterbaar 2.0” Derek Shorey (4-8) would step in to face Rob “The Beast” Best (0-0) in a featherweight bout after Best’s original opponent, Matt Probin (0-0), fell out due to medical reasons.
For Shorey, the opportunity to fight came at the perfect time. The head of the Dexter, Maine-based Shatterproof Combat Club had planned to take an extended leave from competition after a loss to Josh Parker (5-8) last fall at “NEF 26.” Fate intervened recently, egter, when tragedy beset Shorey’s family. Verlede week, four of his children and their mother were left homeless after a two-alarm fire in Somersworth, New Hampshire.
“I wasn’t planning on fighting this soon,” Said Shorey, “but when something like this happens, we do what we can. I asked Matt (Peterson, NEF matchmaker) for a fight to try and get some money to help rebuild after the fire and as fate would have it, a spot opened up. Rob Best is a grinder, nothing but respect for him. This would be a tough fight for me even with a full camp, but I believe everything happens for a reason, and I still have a lot of fight left in me – especially when my heart gets involved.”
NEF further announced that the promotion would be raising funds at the “NEF 28” event to help assist Shorey’s family.
A Gofundme campaign has been established for the family at www.gofundme.com/15summerst/
