NEF RETURNS TO LEWISTON ON SUPER BOWL WEEKEND WITH AN MMA SUPER CARD

Lewiston, Maine (January 19, 2018) – The night before the National Football League (NFL) delivers its 2017-2018 season finale, New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) will return to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston for the first time in eight months as the fight promotion presents “NEF 32: Super Saturday.” And while New England football fans will have to wait until this Sunday’s AFC championship game to find out whether their beloved Patriots will play in the Super Bowl, area mixed-martial-arts fans learned today which of their favorites will compete atNEF 32as promotion executives released the full fight card for the February 3rd omume.

 

 

Ke isi omume nke mgbede, Bruce “Mara Nwa” Boyington (14-11) na-ewe ke Taylor Trahan (7-8) at a catchweight of 150-pounds. One of the biggest MMA stars ever to come out of Maine, Boyington will make his return to the NEF cage after a two-year absence that saw him compete on the global stage in places like Russia and New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden. Trahan makes his third trip to Maine to compete. He is coming off a win over Connor Barry (3-2) ikpeazụ ọdịda.

 

 

Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-1) chere ihu anya na Josh Parker (6-9) na a featherweight tuanu. Lacey suffered the first loss of his pro career in November when a fight he was arguably on the way to winning was stopped by a doctor due to a cut on Lacey’s head. Parker will look to continue his recent success in the MMA cage after recent victories over Andre Belcarris (0-2) na Derek Shorey (4-9).

 

 

CJ Ewer (3-0) is out to make history by becoming the first competitor to hold NEF championships simultaneously in multiple weight divisions. Ewer is the reigning NEF Pro Middleweight Champion. Mgbe “NEF 32,” he has the opportunity to capture the NEF Pro Welterweight Title when he meets Kemran Lachinov (5-2) for the vacant strap.

 

 

Also in professional welterweight action will be Mike “The afụ ọnụ” Hansen (5-8) na Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (9-7) in a fight billed asThe Berserker vs. The Viking.Hansen and Erickson have developed a rivalry as coaches of local gyms Berserkers MMA and Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), karị.

 

 

Speaking of which, Nate Boucher (2-1), a product of CMBJJ, na Ryan Burgess (2-2) of Berserkers MMA will headline the amateur portion of the fight card. The flyweights, former teammates on the Mountain Valley High School wrestling squad, have engaged in a recent war of words heading into the bout. The winner will be in line for a shot at the amateur flyweight title later this spring.

 

 

2017 NEF “Rookie nke Afọ” Jayda “Lil Killah” Bailey (1-0) returns to the cage on February 3rd to meet Florida’s Amanda France (0-1). Bailey made history in November atNEF 31by becoming the youngest competitor ever to compete, (and win), na NEF onu. She turned 18, the legal age for competing in MMA in Maine, just a week prior to the event.

TWO MAINE MMA FAN-FAVORITES WILL SQUARE OFF AT NEF 32

Lewiston, Maine (January 4, 2018) - New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) laghachi Lewiston onSaturday, February 3, 2018 na agha nkwalite ọzọ mbuaha-mara-nkà ihe omume, “NEF 32: Super Saturday.” Earlier today, NEF announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-1) ka aka na ihu Josh Parker (6-9) na a ọgụ arọ nke 145-pound.

After making his professional debut in the spring of 2016, Aaron Lacey rose quickly through the ranks of the NEF featherweight division. With wins over veterans like Derek Shorey (4-9) and Taylor Trahan (8-9), the year belonged to Lacey. 2017, Otú ọ dị, was filled with frustration. Lacey lost two scheduled opponents to injuries and had to pull out of one fight with an injury of his own. Late in the year, he took a fight in New Hampshire against Vovka Clay (8-2). Many felt Lacey was winning a close fight, but a deep cut on his head forced the doctor to stop the fight in the second round and the bout was awarded to Clay. It was the first loss of Lacey’s professional career. The product of Young’s MMA is looking to rebound from that loss and get back on track towards the major leagues of the sport beginning withNEF 32.

“I’m excited to be returning to the NEF cage,” sị Lacey. “Last year was not my year, but it’s over and I’m looking to start 2018 off with a bang! This fight is going to be fun and I love that I get to come home and perform in front of the NEF fans! The best ones around! I’m coming in prepared and looking for the finish!"

Josh Parker has been a mainstay of both the NEF MMA cage and boxing ring since his debut with the promotion back atNEF I” na February 2012. Since turning his focus back to MMA from boxing in late 2016, Parker has had two solid victories in Lewiston. Mgbe “NEF 26” na November 2016, Parker submitted Derek Shorey. Oge okpomọkụ ikpeazụ, na “NEF 29,Parker was again successful, this time taking a unanimous decision victory over Andre Belcarris (0-2). He will look to make it back-to-back wins for the first time in his career since 2011 when he steps into the cage against Lacey. Parker is the head of Ruthless MMA & Boxing based in Benton, Maine.

“I want to thank NEF for the opportunity, and thank Aaron for taking the fight,” kwuru Parker. “M obi ụtọ maka agha. I missed out on the last show, so I’m itching to get back in there . Aaron has had an awesome career so far, and I’m looking forward to the challenges he presents, but I think I match-up well against him. Don’t miss this oneit’s gonna be one to remember.

BELLATOR VET REPRESENTS BIG TEST FOR LACEY AT RUMBLE IN BANGOR

Ozugbo tọhapụ: Bangor, Maine (June 23, 2017) - New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) alaghachikwuru Cross Insurance Center na satọde n'abalị, August 5, 2017 na agha nkwalite ọzọ mbuaha-mara-nkà ihe omume, “NEF 30: Rumble na Bangor.” Earlier today, NEF announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the fight card. Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-0) ga-on Bryan Goldsby (18-15) na a ọgụ arọ nke 145-pound.

Goldsby will be the most experienced fighter Bangor-area prospect Aaron Lacey has ever faced in the cage. He has four Bellator bouts under his belt and has faced national stars such as Will Campuzano (14-6) and Jeff Curran (36-17-1). Goldsby made his NEF debut earlier this month, not in the MMA cage but in the boxing ring. The August 5th bout will represent his return to the cage after more than a three year absence.

Lacey put on a “agha nke abalị” performance last year in Bangor in a brutal back-and-forth war against John Santos (3-5). It was the only fight of Lacey’s pro career thus far to make it to the judges’ scorecards. He has finished all three of his other opponents via first-round submission. The fight with Goldsby will be Lacey’s first since last November.

Fighting in Bangor last year was a dream come true, but it also showed me I have a lot to work on,” said Lacey. “I have been nonstop since then and have made giant improvements. Goldsby is a seasoned opponent who has fought at some of the highest levels the sport has to offer. This will be a big test for me and I’m looking forward to showing everyone just how dangerous I can be!”

LACEY TO TAKE ON BELLATOR VETERAN AT NEF 28

 

Ozugbo tọhapụ: Lewiston, Maine (March 7, 2017) – New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” na satọde, April 29, 2017 na Androscoggin Bank Colisee na Lewiston, Maine. Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-0) ka aka na ihu WalterAll-DaySmith-Cotito (4-5) na a ọgụ arọ nke 145-pound.

Aaron Lacey, undefeated as a professional, has won seven in a row going back to his amateur career. He was prepared to compete at “NEF 27” ikpeazụ nke ọnwa, but Mother Nature had other plans when a snowstorm prevented his opponent from making the trip to Lewiston from Florida. The setback has made Lacey even hungrier to return to action, but the Young’s MMA standout knows that he has his toughest test to date in front of him in the form of Cotito.

This is going to be an amazing fight,” said Lacey. “Walter is a skilled and dangerous opponent, and he is realistically one of the most dangerous people I have fought to date. That’s alright with me thoughthe tougher the opponent, na ike m ọrụ. After what went down in February, I’m chomping at the bit to get back in there.

The fight for Cotito will represent a rubber match of sorts with Young’s opponents. In the spring of 2013, Cotito took Ray Wood (8-3) deep into the third round before Wood, then Young’s standout featherweight prospect, was able to finish the fight. Cotito would gain a measure of revenge against the Bangor gym when he submitted Bruce Boyington (14-10) na “NEF X” later that year. Between a pair of recent appearances for global fight promotion Bellator, Cotito scored a second-round submission of Elias Leland (3-2) na “NEF 25last September.

2016 FIGHTER OF THE YEAR LOOKS TO CARRY MOMENTUM INTO NEW YEAR

Lewiston, Maine (December 21, 2016) -New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) alaghachikwuru na Androscoggin Bank Colisee na February 11, 2017 na ya na-esote mbuaha-mara-nkà ihe omume, “NEF 27: Bịaghachi.” Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight fight to the card. Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-0) ga-on Chris “Game Bred” Jacobs (1-0) na a ọgụ arọ nke 145-pound.

 

Voted “Agha nke Year” earlier this week by NEF fans, it would take a Herculean effort to argue that 2016 was not Aaron Lacey’s year. He made his professional debut in April at “NEF 22” defeating veteran Derek Shorey (4-8) and remained undefeated the rest of the year. Including his amateur career, Lacey is riding a seven-fight win streak. He has not lost a fight since the spring of 2014 (his only loss) – close to three years ago.

 

Ọtụtụ na-adịbeghị anya, Lacey struck down seasoned pro Taylor Trahan (6-7) with a vicious liver kick that made the entire crowd at the Colisee cringe. A win over Jacobs on February 11 would move Lacey that much closer to signing a contract with a major, national MMA promotiona fate long predicted by many insiders for the product of Bangor’s Young’s MMA gym.

 

I’m looking forward to 2017,said Lacey when reached for comment. “2016 was a big year for me and I am looking forward to carrying that momentum into the new year on February 11th. Chris Jacobs is a seasoned opponent who is making the trip up from Florida, so he will be prepared. I live in the gym and have been making huge gains, na 2017 will be the year I get to showcase those gains!”

 

Jacobs is based out of DeLand, Florida. “NEF 27” will see him make his first trip to compete in Maine, but Jacobs is no stranger to the MMA cage. He put together an impressive record of 8-3 dị ka onye na-amu amu, including capturing a regional title on a fight card in nearby Daytona Beach. Jacobs won his pro debut earlier this year in Tampa. He is looking forward to facing tough competition in the form of Lacey.

 

I must give thanks and praise to the most high for putting me in this position to fight in Maine,” Kwurula Jacobs. “It’s a blessing. It’s an honor to fight someone of a high caliber and stature like Aaron Lacey. I look forward to coming up there and competing with a top level athlete.

NEF 26 MMA CARD FEATURES WOMEN’S FIGHTS, TITLE FIGHTS, RETURNS, DEBUTS AND MORE

Lewiston, Maine (October 21, 2016) – New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 26: SUPREMACY,” na satọde, November 19 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Earlier today, NEF executives announced the full fight card for the event which will be the fight promotion’s grand finale for 2016.

 

Ke isi omume, “The” Ryan Sanders (10-8) ga- Jon Lemke (5-6) in a professional lightweight bout. It will be Sandersfirst fight in Lewiston since November 2014. Much has been made of the fact that Sanders and Lemke are former teammates. The bout is considered adream matchby Maine fight fans, especially those from the Bangor-area familiar with the rivalry between Sanderscamp Young’s MMA and Lemke’s camp Team Irish.

 

The co-main event of the evening will feature an interestingcoach vs. nchịkwa” agha. “Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey (4-7), head of the Shatterproof Combat Club, is scheduled to face Ruthless MMA & Boxing founder Josh Parker (4-8) in a professional featherweight contest. Shorey is coming off a big win in Rhode Island earlier this fall, while Parker will be returning to the MMA cage after spending the last three years competing as a boxer.

 

Rounding out the professional portion of the card will be undefeated prospect Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (3-0) na Taylor Trahan (6-6) na a featherweight tuanu. Lacey and Trahan both submitted their respective opponents atNEF 25” ikpeazụ nke ọnwa. Many local followers of the sport feel that Lacey is just a handful of wins away from getting the call to the major league of the sport.

The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a heavyweight title fight between Nick “The Guardian” Gulliver (3-0) na Yorgan DeCastro (2-2).
