The fight will take place at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds.

 

A member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine, Aaron Lacey had a phenomenal start to his amateur career, finishing his first three opponents before dropping a decision to Matt Tullos (7-0) on a card in New Hampshire. Lacey fired back, winning his next two in a row over Dom Cofone (5-5) and Nick Spencer (5-4) masing-masing. Lacey is a perfect 4-0 in the NEF cage and he will look to continue that streak and take home the featherweight title on June 13.

 

“It’s an honor to be fighting for the first ever NEF amateur featherweight belt,” stated Lacey when reached for comment. “Alex is a game opponent who likes to be in your face. He presents a very interesting challenge he is aggressive and powerful. It just so happens I fight the same way. Be sure not to miss it this fight has fireworks written all over it.”

“Saya gembira dengan peluang, but it’s just a small step on the path to my big goals,” said Johnson. “Ia hanya perjuangan lain, and when they close the cage door in June it doesn’t matter who’s in front of me. I’m ruthless in every aspect and that’s what I’ll be bringing in June. I train with the best around and nothing will surprise me. I’ll be ready for wherever the fight goes. Ruthless all the way baby!”
