安吉拉年輕的克里斯楊的妻子 – owner and founder of Young’s MMA. She views her debut fight as a way of testing herself.
“It’s important for me to test myself,” 說年輕, “不僅在轎廂來9月12日, but also through the fight that’s happened the last eight weeks leading up to the NEF event. I feel the fight is essentially a showcase and representation of the grueling training sessions and endless hours in the gym that took place prior to fight night. Living the MMA lifestyle to me meant more than diet modifications and strict training schedules. Athletically, 這是更多的通過障礙持久，推動自己的極限作為競爭對手在沒有經過測試的方法. 這是關於證明自己, 我的教練和我的隊友，我已經贏得了我的正確步驟在籠子裡。”
而在過去婦女被淪為打擊體育賽事的雜耍和新奇的部分, 像拳擊, 女子MMA不僅上升到平等的地位與男人的MMA, 它有, 在某些方面, surpassed it. One has to look only to the highest level of the sport to see this trend. Women’s fights are now routinely present on the main cards of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The promotion’s top star, 其薪酬最高的運動員, 它是女性的最輕量級冠軍龍達·魯西 (12-0). The women competing on the September 12 卡會在運動的前列，擴大婦女的機會在區域一級.
“MMA對於女性來說是非常不不同於它是男性,” 說年輕. “明顯, MMA是一個以男性為主的運動, but successful women in the MMA world are on the rise. 通過這場戰鬥營我一直在設法解決, 對打搏鬥與年輕的MMA戰鬥的球隊，他們已經無情的支持. 作為第一個女戰士之一了楊氏肯定有壓力 (還有結婚先生. 年輕) but it’s also a spotlight I’m hoping will inspire other women who otherwise wouldn’t have pursued MMA. I would bet the women’s fights on September 12th won’t be unlike the others we’ve seen at prior NEF events. 我希望女人把一個偉大的演出，因為我們確實有一些東西需要證明. 我已經把血, 汗水和淚水成培訓和你最好相信我假設我的對手做同樣的. 話雖這麼說，, 女人是要來後，種植他們在NEF籠股份。”
“女子MMA是在上升,” 說因諾琴蒂. “每個學科教女人的東西，她不知道自己. 我已經看到它在我和其他許多人建立信心. 越女在墊子, the better. Fans can expect my teammate, 安吉, 和我自己給它我們的一切，去打仗就像男戰士年輕的MMA做. 我們一直在努力，代表我們的健身房. 我們將與驕傲戰鬥, 情, 和最強的角落找出來給我們. 我可以向你保證，女性的較量將是令人難忘的。”
“女子MMA是一種運動，就像任何其他,” 說Reinheimer埃弗雷特, 馬薩諸塞州. “這不是的英雄耗盡進入樹林三天訓練與武林高手的動作片，然後擊敗一支整個軍隊. 這不是一個酒吧鬥毆. 這不是一個後巷伏擊. 這些婦女都是用最好的培訓嚴重的運動員誰訓練努力了多年, 設備和可用資源. 婦女誰在戰鬥中的體育競爭，花幾千血小時, 汗水和淚水完善他們的運動. 他們做出犧牲. 此外, 有規則和時間限制和安全注意事項. 當有人不熟悉婦女MMA的想法, 我把它比作拳擊或擊劍, something else that people are more familiar with. The pool of women fighters in New England is deepening fast and the fact that there are more women’s bouts on fight cards reflects that. 我的對手和我都是嚴重, 勤奮營. 我們都是母親，它需要很大的決心和驅動做這項運動，而雜耍的工作和兒童. 我一直在努力不懈地與我的團隊，因為我的最後一戰，以提高我的比賽在各個方面. 我很感謝驚人的培訓和隊友在Sityodtong是把我逼得這麼難. 九月 12, 你可以期待一戰。”
大多數人, 男人和女人, who join MMA gyms do not do so initially intending to become an active cage fighter. On any given day, one can walk into any MMA gym and find a diverse population of trainees. Men and women, 古老而又年輕, 藍領和白領, all train side by side. Most will never step foot in a cage in front of thousands of screaming fans. Most are there to get in shape or learn self-defense. Some, 然而, 在競爭的bug被咬住.
“我被介紹給世界MMA簽約我的女兒了對柔術班以為這將是她利於參與這項運動的自衛方面後，,” 回憶起漢娜Sparrell. “我看著她愛上遊戲, 獲得力量和信心, and was quick to decide that it was something I needed to be doing too. It didn’t take long before I fell in love with Jiu Jitsu myself, 然後最終要探索MMA世界的其他方面. 作為一個在健身房已經變成了第二個家，我和我的女兒, 我的訓練夥伴, a second family. Every day I walk through the doors of the gym is a test, 它的運動能力測試, 以及心理和情緒驅動的測試. 自從被引入到混合武術的世界，我已經把我的身體, 心臟, 和靈魂培訓, 而在這一回合的競爭對我很重要的原因有很多, 不僅代表我自己和我的辛苦, 同時也代表所有的辛勤工作, 奉獻, 和鼓勵我從我的朋友收到, 教官, 培訓合作夥伴, and fellow fighters along the way. I think MMA training for woman is a great outlet for many reasons, 它實際是一個很好的鍛煉, 也是“治療”的一個可能是緊張的一天結束的一種好形式. 我有很多女性我一起訓練, 不是所有的人都打算戰鬥, 但這項運動的好處仍然存在, 他們喜歡它一樣的。”
因諾琴蒂, 像許多, 開始參與打架的運動，以此來得到, 而留在, shape. Little did she know when her journey started some two years ago that it would take her into an MMA cage with thousands watching her compete.
“混合武術是人類精神的各個層面的終極考驗: 物理, 精神上, 和情感,” 說Reinheimer. “我有一個強烈的願望要知道多遠我可以去. I like exceeding expectations and pushing my limits and that’s MMA in a nutshell. Since I started training in martial arts, 我的生活變得邊界少. 我在墊子上的生活改善了我的生活離墊子，反之亦然. 它剝奪了一切不必要的干擾和蒸餾水將我打倒真正的問題, 進出環. 我覺得它讓我變得更接近我的真實的自我. 這是最好的古武術和現代生活。”
四個女人的戰鬥 “第十九NEF” 卡, only Reinheimer has actively competed in the past. She dominated her opponent this past spring on her way to a unanimous decision victory in her debut. All of the women fighting on September 12 在劉易斯頓很高興有機會.
“NEF是一個堅實的推廣有巨大的聲譽,” 說Reinheimer. “I was a spectator at their very first fight card back in 2012. I love Maine and the crowd is awesome there. 我不能等!”
“我認為，球迷們可以期待一個偉大的演出的確,” 驚呼Sparrell. “往往不是女人的戰鬥已經被證明是非常有趣, 我們當然想證明自己無愧于這個顯著的男性為主的運動. 這是出道四分之三的婦女在此卡上, 所以我知道那裡將是一個很大的心臟和決心丟到這些鬥爭. 我知道, 親自, 我很高興能代表! I couldn’t be more excited to be making my MMA debut in the NEF cage; 我看過這麼多我崇拜的戰士，並期待在這項運動從安德羅斯科銀行Colisée酒店的看台, 有機會，現在這裡來了跟他們確實是一個真正的榮譽。”
路易斯頓, 緬因 (八月 17, 2015) - 新英格蘭戰鬥 (NEF), 美國的頭號地區拼促銷, 將舉行第十九屆混合武術 (MMA) 事件, “第十九NEF: HOMECOMING,” 週六, 九月 12, 2015 在安德羅斯科銀行Colisée酒店在路易斯頓, 緬因.

Boutin and Peterson touched on their first meeting some three-and-a-half years ago, 前不久布廷做了他的業餘亮相 “NEF三。”
“我掛了誰拿到門票幾個哥們你 (NEF) 第一個事件, 所以我去了，這是最偉大的事情,” recalled Boutin. “I remember talking with people and then contacting you. I really wasn’t doing anything at that time. I was feeling kind of lost. I was kind of clinging to the feeling of want. I just wanted to do something. 更多, I liked to fight and scrap. I always watched the sport. I guess it just all came together at that time.”
由於沒有正規的培訓, Boutin would lose his first bout. 此後不久, 彼得森把布廷接觸與財研究所在波特蘭的教練喬恩·皮內特, 緬因. It is there that Boutin found his footing in the martial arts while, 同時, 鍛造深厚的友誼和關係與隊友.
“這是一個相當真棒氛圍,” said Boutin of the Choi Institute. “我從來沒有停留在一個地方很長我的整個生命, except for this place. I don’t see myself leaving. It’s a great atmosphere over here. I called Jon. I remember being really nervous to call Jon, 我想這個早期, 但他真的邀請… 大家在這裡已真正吸引人, really supporting. There’s a really good mix of people here. We have young to old. We have everything in between. It’s a very accepting place to be. It’s a great place to train. Everyone gets along inside and outside the gym.”
布廷提出轉專業今年早些時候在總共有競爭後決定 13 業餘打架. He would defeat MMA Athletix head coach Ryan Cowette (2-3) in his debut. 在這樣做, 布廷獲得了復仇的措施，因為它已經Cowette的門生布倫特迪靈漢 (1-1) 誰遞給布廷在布廷的業餘亮相他的首次虧損，在 “NEF三。” Boutin says that there really was no animosity between himself and Cowette, 但布廷和迪靈漢之間的戰鬥後的交流 “NEF III” 在 2012 is still in the back of his mind. He admits that he would love a rematch with Dillingham in the near future.
該事件被恰當地名為 “歸國” as it will feature the returns of several athletes who have either been recently inactive or competing outside the NEF umbrella. One such return will featureDarrius Heyliger (5-2) 伊薩卡, 紐約. Maine and the NEF cage became a home-away-from-home for Heyliger and several of his Bombsquad teammates during the early days of the promotion. Heyliger competed regularly for NEF in 2012 和早期 2013. His last appearance in the cage was in May 2013 對馬庫斯 “愛爾蘭手榴彈” 戴維斯 (22-11) 在主要事件 “NEF七。” Heyliger will make his return on九月 12 針對 布蘭登·查岡 (5-4) Sityodtong的.

在卡的業餘球隊, 喬希·哈維 (4-1) is scheduled to headline in the first defense of his NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Title. Harvey will meet the stiff challenge of瑞安Dibartolomeo (4-2) 從納舒厄約翰·費恩的團隊凱旋/波士頓巴西柔術, 新罕布什爾. Harvey won the vacant title this past June with a first-round submission of Ricky Dexter (3-1).
該卡的業餘部分也將有沒有一, but two women’s contests. Young’s MMA of Bangor, Maine will be represented in both bouts with安吉拉年輕 (0-0) 和 基拉因諾琴蒂 (0-0) making their respective debuts.

Heyliger impressed many with his victories over Jarod Lawton (4-2) 和喬希波紋管 (1-2). He would go on to headline “第七NEF” 對傳說中的馬庫斯·戴維斯 (22-11) in one of the biggest fights in NEF history. 這回合, 在五月 2013, 是最後一次Heyliger將在競爭NEF, 或者晉升為此事, 直到 “第十九NEF。”
“我覺得像時間遠離這項運動需要, 我現在已經準備好接管並主導,” said Heyliger. “而為了讓我復出的鬥爭中的緬因州球迷面前和NEF, 其中，支撐是如此強烈, 使得它好得多。”
“我們真的高興能有Darrius回來,” 說NEF共同所有者和媒人馬特·彼得森. “He’s one of those fighters the fans are always asking us to bring back. His fight with Jarod Lawton was one of the most brutal to ever take place in the NEF cage. He’ll have his work cut out for him with Brandon Chagnon though.”

“我很高興我得到了一個狀態我以前沒有參加過競爭的機會, 而在新的觀眾面前誰可能還沒有機會看到在我面前展開競爭,” said Chagnon. “這是我的第十個職業MMA戰鬥, so it is important to me to go out make a statement. I train with what is highly regarded as the best team in the northeast and they are like family to me. With them standing behind me, 我知道，如果我在我的全部潛力打, I am trouble for any 170-pound fighter. From what I know, Darrius seems like a tough opponent and we have similar records on paper. 然而, 我在我的腦海毫無疑問，我會走開與另一個勝利。”

I’ll be ready and I know he will be coming hard and dangerous with bad intentions behind everything and when that cage door closes, 他沒有朋友 – 它的所有業務. Be ready Derek, 因為我會. Let’s give these fans a show and test ourselves to the limit.”
