ALL ROADS LEAD TO MONUMENTAL FIGHT CARD IN LEWISTON

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (Márta 31, 2016) - Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF), Meiriceá uimhir a haon a chur chun cinn gcomhrac réigiúnach, Beidh Tionólfar ócáid ​​seo chugainn, “NEF 22: GACH ROADS PRÍOMH ANSEO” ar Dé Sathairn, Aibreán 23, 2016 ag an Colisée Androscoggin Banc i Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Níos luaithe inniu, NEF announced the full fight card for the event. The fight card is scheduled to feature three professional boxing matches, six professional MMA bouts, and twelve exciting amateur MMA contests.

 

On the professional boxing side of the card, Northeast Junior Welterweight Champion, and the pride of West Forks, Maine, Brandon “An Cannon” Berry(11-1, 7 Kos) returns to the ring for a six-rounder with Detroit, Michigan’s James Lester (10-9, 4 Kos). Berry, one of the most popular boxers to ever come out of Maine, will look for his fourth consecutive victory since returning from a shoulder injury last year.

 

That will prove easier said than done with Lester standing in the opposite corner. Lester is a product of the world-famous Kronk Gym in Detroit where world champions like Thomas “Hitman” Hearns (61-5-1, 48 Kos), Oscar De La Hoya (39-6, 30 Kos), Lennox Lewis (41-2-1, 32 Kos) and Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 Kos) have trained under the late Emmanuel Steward. Lester was ranked number-two nationally as an amateur. He presents a dangerous threat to Berry, one that could very well play the role of “spoiler” go “An Cannon” and his legion of fans.

 

After a bloody war of a professional boxing debut at “NEF 21” an mhí seo caite, NEF MMA regular Crowsneck Boutin (0-0-1) will once again step into the boxing ring, this time facing Brandon Montella (3-0, 2 Kos). Montella, now a resident of Massachusetts, grew up in Maine and served in the United States Marine Corps.

 

Headlining the professional MMA portion of the fight card will be Jesse “An Lochlannach” Erickson (6-4) agus Devin Powell (5-1) in a lightweight contest. Both fighters are currently on a three-fight win streak.

 

“I try to focus on what is right in front of me,” said Erickson during a recent interview on The MMA Report Podcast. “I never looked past my opponents but I like to think what the reward is going to be when I beat this guy.”

 

Neither athlete can afford to overlook the other, but a win for either could very well mean a call from one of the national promotions. Erickson has been there before with Bellator. Powell is an all-around talent with some slick finishes to his credit.

 

“This is the type of MMA fight we absolutely love,” said NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “You have two guys who match up so well. They’ve both been racking up the wins. They’ve faced some of the same opponents. They’re both solid on the mat and on their feet. I expect this to be yet another crazy, wild NEF MMA main event!”

 

“Crazy” agus “wild” do not even begin to describe the grudge that has developed between Josh “Hook On” Harvey (0-0) agus Matt “Ken Doll” Denning (2-1). The bitter rivals will meet at a fight weight of 150-pounds at “NEF 22” in an MMA bout. The bout will be Harvey’s professional debut after a stellar 5-1 amateur career that saw him capture the NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Title, as well as the northeast regions number-one ranking. The well-publicized personal issues between Harvey and Denning will be settled in the cage on April 23rd.

 

The professional portion of the MMA card will also feature the pro debut of Harvey’s Young’s MMA teammate Aaron “Gan staonadh” Lacey (0-0) as he takes on veteran “Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey (3-5) i bout featherweight. Lacey vacated the NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Title in order to turn professional.

 

That title will not stay vacant very long as Caleb Hall (6-3) agus Erik Nelson (2-2) face off to determine a new champion at the top of the amateur MMA card. Hall is coming off a first-round submission win at “NEF XX” titim anuas, while Nelson recently picked up a unanimous decision victory at “NEF 21.”

 

The amateur MMA card will also feature a women’s fight between Angela Óga(0-1) agus “Hollywood” Hannah Sparrell (1-0). Young and Sparrell made their respective debuts last year at “NEF XIX.”

AMATEUR MMA CHAMPION VACATES TITLE TO MAKE PROFESSIONAL DEBUT AT NEF 22

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (Márta 9, 2016) - Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF), Meiriceá uimhir a haon a chur chun cinn gcomhrac réigiúnach, Beidh Tionólfar ócáid ​​seo chugainn, “NEF 22: GACH ROADS PRÍOMH ANSEO” ar Dé Sathairn, Aibreán 23, 2016 ag an Colisée Androscoggin Banc i Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Níos luaithe inniu, NEF announced the addition of a professional featherweight contest to the MMA portion of the “NEF 22” cárta troid. Aaron “Gan staonadh” Lacey (0-0) will make his professional debut against tough veteran “Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey(3-5) ag troid meáchan de 145-punt.

 

Aaron Lacey leaves behind a legacy of victory in the amateur ranks. He put together an impressive record of 6-1 since his debut in the fall of 2012. Lacey capped off his amateur stint by winning the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Championship last November, handing Caleb Horner (4-1) the first loss of his career in the process. Lacey is currently the number-one ranked amateur featherweight in the northeast. He is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine, agus ar April 23rd Lacey will make his professional debut alongside training partner, and NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Champion, Josh Harvey (0-0). Lacey will vacate the amateur featherweight title to enter the professional division. NEF executives are expected to make an announcement on the status of that championship in the very near future.

 

“I am super excited to finally be making my pro debut come April,” said Lacey. “This is a goal I have had for a long time and something I have always been working towards. Derek Shorey is a very tough challenge as a debut fight. He has a tremendous skill set and a ton of experience. As far as vacating my belt, I had always viewed capturing the title as the capstone to my amateur career. In the moment, it was an incredible feeling and it is something I will always be proud of. Part of what has made me successful is that I always keep looking forward for my next big challenge and my coaches along with myself believe that those challenges are within the professional ranks.”

 

After getting off to a 3-2 start in his professional career, Derek Shorey is looking to bounce back from a three-fight skid. Last September, Shorey scored a career-defining, highlight-reel knockout of Tollison Lewis (0-5), but would go on to taste defeat in his next three matchups. A 1998 Class-C Maine state wrestling champion for Foxcroft Academy, Shorey is the founder and head coach of the Shatterproof Combat Club based out of Dexter, Maine. He served his country in the United States Navy for four years of active duty and did a tour of Iraq with SEABEE Battalion NMCB 27. Shorey is hoping to find his rhythm in the cage against Lacey at “NEF 22.”

 

“Aaron is an incredibly tough, resilient fighter,” noted Shorey. “He keeps coming at you, solid technique. Nothing but respect for him and his skills. Sin á rá, I’ve been growing rapidly under new instruction, but have been unable to find my rhythm in the cage. I feel that Aaron will bring his steady, solid pace and be met by my speed and power. I’m excited to welcome him into the professional ranks.”

Lewiston, Maine (Deireadh Fómhair 15, 2015) - Troideanna Sasana Nua (NEF), Meiriceá uimhir a haon a chur chun cinn gcomhrac réigiúnach, Beidh Tionólfar ócáid ​​seo chugainn, “NEF XX: A STAIR NA FORÉIGEAN” ar Dé Sathairn, Samhain 21, 2015 ag an Colisée Androscoggin Banc i Lewiston, Maine. Beidh an ócáid ​​ghné chéad uair Maine – measctha-martial-ealaíon (MMA) bouts agus bouts dornálaíochta gairmiúil ar an teagmhas céanna le Cage MMA agus fáinne dornálaíochta arna chur ar bun taobh-le-taobh. Níos luaithe inniu, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight title bout to the fight card. Aaron “Gan staonadh” Lacey (5-1) sceidealta chun freastal ar Caleb Horner (6-2) for the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Championship. The bout will take place at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds.

 

Is Lacey ina bhall de MMA Óga i Bangor, Maine. He holds victories over tough opponents like Dom Cofone (6-5) agus Caleb Hall (5-3) sa Cage NEF. His only loss to date came in New Hampshire against Matt Tullos (7-0).

 

“Tá mé ar bís Super a bheith ag troid don crios,” Exclaimed Lacey. “It means the world to me that my hard work and dedication are paying off. There is no possible way I’m leaving that cage without that strap around my waist.”

 

Bhí Lacey sceidealta roimhe sin chun troid ar son an teideal, ach d'fhulaing gortú le linn na hoiliúna a iachall ar ceal an bout.

 

“Is dul gortaithe riamh spraoi agus tá sé beagnach i gcónaí míchaoithiúlacht,” Lean Lacey. “Tá sé an-frustrating a bhfuil am saor a thógáil mar gheall ar ghortuithe, but it has also shown me that this is exactly what I want to do with my life. The fans can expect a whole new animal. I may have been injured but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been working. I have transformed my game and I will show everyone just how good I am come November 21. Make sure not to blink this fight isn’t going the distance.”

 

Comhraic Lacey s, Caleb Horner, Beidh taisteal go dtí Maine ó Florida áit a traenacha sé amach as an F2 Arena i Gainesville faoi Ryan Hodge (6-10). Hodge and his students have gained a reputation as spoilers in the New England region, coming in from out of town to score upsets over local favorites. Horner will look to continue that tradition when he meets Lacey on Samhain 21 i Lewiston.
