Bangor, Maine (August 6, 2017) –There was no place like homeSaturdaynight for C.J. Ewer, Ryan Sanders and Fred Lear of Young’s MMA in Bangor.
Fighting in front of a sold-out ballroom a stone’s throw from their training headquarters, the three fighters atop the card at “NEF 30” Rumble in Bangor” all posted impressive victories at Cross Insurance Center.
Ewer defeated Mike “The Mustache” Hansen by submission at1:46of the first round to capture the vacant NEF pro middleweight title. Lear landed the NEF amateur bantamweight belt, while Sanders tightened his grip on New England’s pro lightweight scene in a non-title triumph.
It was the second consecutive August sellout in the Queen City, a tradition that began with “NEF Presents Dana White: Lookin’ For a Fight” last summer.
After his hard-fought win over the much-traveled Jay Ellis, NEF pro lightweight champion Sanders, kaalinta No. 1 ee gobolka, kept his comments short and sweet while calling out the aforementioned Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Madaxweynaha.
“You took the wrong guy last year,” Sanders said. “Come get me now.”
Sanders (15-8) didn’t have an easy road against Ellis, a veteran of more than 80 pro bouts. Ellis had Sanders under control for most of the fight but left himself vulnerable to a triangle choke at2:34 wareegga koowaad.
Ewer dispatched Hansen with a similarly swift maneuver.
“It’s a great feeling to win it in front of the home crowd,” Ewer said. “As hard as we worked (in training camp), I didn’t think anything could stop me.”
The sudden ending spoiled Hansen’s hopes of winning a title for the first time in his 13-year mixed martial arts career.
“This was by far the best training camp I ever had. We were just getting warmed up,” Hansen said. “I had a lot more to give, and I’m sure C.J. had a lot of more to give. But hey, we could do it again.”
Lear highlighted the amateur portion of the card with an authoritative second-round knockout of Walt Shea.
Only the bell saved Shea from Lear’s onslaught at the end of the opening chapter. Lear gained the advantage with a kick to the head midway through that round. After nearly locking in an arm bar that could have ended the fight, Lear bloodied the previously unbeaten Shea with a series of strikes.
The end appeared inevitable when Shea needed Lear’s help to find his corner between rounds, and another interrupted attack hastened the finish only 14 ilbiriqsi ka dib.
An emotional Lear lauded his coach, Chris Young of Young’s MMA, before fastening the belt around the teacher’s waist.
“A lot of people around here know his name, but they don’t know the man,” Lear said. “He’s the first guy in the gym in the morning and the last one to leave at night. He’s the reason we’re all here. He’s the reason we’re successful. He’s the reason some of us aren’t in jail.”
In the first two fights of Josh Jones’ amateur MMA career, Jones dispatched his opponents by one-punch knockout in a total of 24 seconds. It took Carlton Charles one fewer tick of the clock to take out Jones in the stunning conclusion to a touted tangle of former star collegiate athletes.
Charles, a product of the University of Maine football program taking his initial walk to the NEF cage, turned the tables on Jones (2-1) in a middleweight scrap. Jones again went for the early stoppage with a pair of looping shots, but Charles calmly ducked them before landing one of his own and taking the issue to the mat.
“I just love the competition,” Charles said. “You don’t get hit in the face like this on the football field.”
When the combatants regained their feet, Charles backed Jones against the cage and landed two right hands to the jaw. Jones dropped to one knee and absorbed a sharp left to the head. That persuaded the referee to step in and stop the fight, a verdict that left Jones and his First Class MMA camp visibly puzzled.
It was Charles’ second one-sided combat sports victory in a week’s time. He previously delivered a first-round TKO in the amateur boxing ring. Jones suffered his first defeat since making the transition from basketball, which he played professionally in Europe after starring at Bangor’s Husson University.
One look atFriday eeofficial weigh-in suggested that the bout between Roger Ewer (251 pounds) and Dustin Freeman (220) might be the typical stand-up, slug-it-out heavyweight affair. Halkii, it turned into a ground-and-pound showcase that was right in Ewer’s wheelhouse. C.J.’s older brother, making his debut in the NEF hexagon at 44 sano jir, hammered out the advantage throughout and earned a TKO via unanswered strikes at2:31of the second stanza.
Nate Boucher improved to 2-0 with a first-round stoppage of Jeremiah Barkac, who was making his cage debut. Barkac gained an early advantage in the bantamweight bout with a barrage of strikes, but Boucher cleverly gained leverage with his legs and locked in a triangle choke.
Ku guuleysto iyo haddii, Bangor’s Angela Young announced that her battle with Jessica “The Black Widow” Borga would be the final fight of her career. Borga (6-3) erased any hopes of a Hollywood ending with a decisive TKO at2:16 ee furitaanka wareega. Young (2-3), wife of Chris, had never gone less than the distance in any of her prior wins or losses.
In a mutual NEF and MMA debut, Zach Faulkner delighted his home crowd with a second-round victory over David Hart via rear naked choke. Ugu dambeyn ayaa yimid 1:42.
Jesse Hutchinson also enjoyed a triumphant debut in the amateur ranks. He stopped Anthony LaPointe at2:43of the first round in a welterweight skirmish.
NEF also announced that the promotion’s next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 31: The Old Port,” will see the company make its long-awaited debut in Portland, Maine at the brand new, state-of-the-art venue Aura. The event is scheduled to take place onFriday, November 3, 2017. Tickets will go on sale this Wednesday, August 9 at www.auramaine.com.

Young, the wife of Young’s MMA founder and head coach Chris Young, made her MMA debut in the fall of 2015. Somehow finding the time to fight while being a fulltime mother and working overnight as a registered nurse, Young would compete three times in just an eight-month period. Ku guuleysto iyo haddii, she has been known to put on “fight of the night” performances, including Young’s last bout with Kylie O’Hearn (1-2) at “NEF 23” in Hyannis, Massachusetts this past May.
“I’ve taken some time off from the cage since my last fight, but I’ve never stopped training,” said Young when reached for comment. “Young’s is growing, and team training has been elevated to a higher standard because of the new talent. I’m looking forward to stepping back in the NEF cage in February. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while, and you better believe I’m coming for a win.”
Like her opponent, Brothwell is a registered nurse. She is based in New Hampshire and is a member of team Bucket Brigade in Nashua. While she will be making her NEF debut onFebruary 11, Brothwell is no stranger to the MMA cage. She has competed twice previously and she promises a memorable fight for both Young and the fans in Lewiston.
“I fully respect my opponent, her abilities and training, but I train with the best in New England,” stated Brothwell. “Ku guuleysto iyo haddii, you will always remember the time you fought me. This won’t just be the best female fight on the card, it’s going to be fight of the night.”

The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Goor hore oo maanta, 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 “Cannon ayaa” Berry(11-1, 7 KOs) returns to the ring for a six-rounder with Detroit, Michigan’sJames 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 “Gooldhaliyaha” 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 “Baabbi'iyihii” si ay u “Cannon ayaa” and his legion of fans.
After a bloody war of a professional boxing debut at “NEF 21” bishii la soo dhaafay, NEF MMA regularCrowsneck Boutin (0-0-1) will once again step into the boxing ring, this time facingBrandon 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 beJesse “Viking The” Erickson (6-4) iyo 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 onThe 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,” ayaa sheegay in NEF co-milkiilaha iyo horumariyaha 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” iyo “wild” do not even begin to describe the grudge that has developed betweenJosh “Hook On” Harvey (0-0) iyo 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 onApril 23rd.
The professional portion of the MMA card will also feature the pro debut of Harvey’s Young’s MMA teammateAaron “Hagar” Lacey (0-0) as he takes on veteran“Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey (3-5) in culeyskooda featherweight. Lacey vacated the NEF MMA Amateur Featherweight Title in order to turn professional.
That title will not stay vacant very long asKaaleeb Hall (6-3) iyo 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” dayrta la soo dhaafay, while Nelson recently picked up a unanimous decision victory at “NEF 21.”
The amateur MMA card will also feature a women’s fight betweenAngela Young(0-1) iyo “Hollywood” Hannah Sparrell (1-0). Young and Sparrell made their respective debuts last year at “NEF XIX.”

Saaxiibkiis Young Kira Innocenti (0-0) waxaa sidoo kale la qorsheeyay in la sameeyo iyada ugu horeysay ee ka dhanka ah Hannah Sparrell (0-0) ka First Class MMA in Brunswick.
Angela Young waa naagtii ee Chris Young – milkiilaha iyo aasaasaha ururka dhalinyarada ee MMA. Waxay u aragtaa dagaalkeedii ugu horreeyay inay tahay hab ay isku tijaabiso.
“Aniga ayey muhiim ii tahay inaan is tijaabiyo,” ayaa sheegay in Young, “ma aha oo kaliya in qafis ku soo12-kii September, laakiin sidoo kale iyada oo loo marayo dagaalkii dhacay ee dhacay sideedii toddobaad ee la soo dhaafay taasoo keentay dhacdadii NEF. Waxaan dareemayaa in dagaalku asal ahaan yahay bandhig iyo matalaad kalfadhiyada tababarka murugada leh iyo saacado aan dhamaanayn oo jimicsiga lagu qabtay ka hor dagaalka habeenka. Ku noolaanshaha qaab nololeedka MMA aniga waxaa loola jeedaa in ka badan wax ka beddelka cuntada iyo jadwalka tababarka adag. Ciyaaraha fudud, waxa ay aheyd badan oo ku saabsan abaal marinin waxaad iyada oo caqabado ah oo riixaya xad aan sida tartan hab aan loo tijaabiyey. Goortaas waxay ahayd abbaaraha caddaynaya inaan aniga qudhaydu, tababarayaasha iyo asxaabteyda aan kasbadeen aan xaq u leeyihiin in ay faragalisaa qafis.”
Halkee in haweenka la soo dhaafay ayaa lagu heerka labaad u laabatay si ay bandhig iyo cibaaro ah qaybo ka mid ah dhacdooyinka ciyaaraha dagaal, sida feerka, MMA haweenka ayaa soo sara kacay ma aha oo kaliya in ay u siman tahay inuu la jiro ragga ee MMA, waxa ay leedahay, siyaabo qaar ka mid ah, dhaaftay. Mid waa inuu fiiriyaa oo keliya heerka ugu sarreeya ee cayaaraha si uu u arko isbeddelladan. Dagaallada haweenka ayaa hadda si joogto ah loogu soo bandhigayaa kaararka ugu muhiimsan ee Horyaalka La-dagaallanka Ultimate (UFC). Xiddiga sare ee dallacaadda, iyo ciyaaraha fudud ugu mushaarka badan, waa horyaalka bantamweight ay haweenka Ronda Rousey (12-0). Haweenka tartamaya bisha Sebtember 12 card noqon doono safka hore ee dhaqdhaqaaq in ay ballaariso fursadaha dumarka ee heer gobol.
“MMA loogu tala galay dumarka ma aha weyn ka duwan yahay waa rag,” sheegay Young. “Sida iska cad, MMA yahay sport uruureen koox rag ah, laakiin haweenka guuleysta ee dunida MMA ayaa soo kordhaya. Iyada oo xerada dagaalka taas ayaan la taahaysay, sparred iyo dadba ka Young ee MMA kooxda dagaal oo ay unrelentingly taageero. In ay mid ka mid ah dagaalyahanada hore dumar ah oo ka mid Young ayaa dhab ahaan waxay leedahay cadaadiska ay (iyo sidoo kale la guursaday in Mr. Young) laakiin sidoo kale waa iftiiminta waxaan rajeynayaa inay dhiirigalin doonto dumarka kale ee aan si kale u daba socon lahayn MMA. Waxaan sharad ku dhigi lahaa dagaallada haweenka bisha Sebtember 12 ma noqon doonto mid ka duwan kuwa kale ee aan ku aragnay dhacdooyinkii hore ee NEF. Waxaan filayaa in haweenka si ay u soo bandhiga weyn sababtoo ah waxaan haysan wax ay u caddeeyaan. Waxaan dhiig dhigay, dhididka iyo ilmo tababarka iyo inaad si fiican u aaminsan yihiin inaan loo maleeyo soo horjeeda aan sameeyo isku mid. Taasi lagu sheegay, Haweenka ku jira waa in ay yimaadaan ka dib markii ay u aasaan ay saami ku qafis NEF ah.”
Labada Young ayaa saaxiibkiisii, Kira Innocenti, sidoo kale waxa uu leeyahay iyada soo horjeeda ee “NEF XIX,” Rachel Reinheimer, u muuqdaan in ay waafaqsaneyn views Young ayaa si weynna u kobcay MMA haweenka.

Ayaa haween badan sariiro ah, ka fiican. Taageerayaashu way filan karaan saaxiibkey, Angie, iyo inaan naftayda in ay naga siin iyo inay dagaal ugu baxaan sida ugu dagaalyahan lab ee Young ee MMA sameeyo. Waxaan ka soo shaqeeyay adag si ay u matalaan noo gym. Waxaan u dagaalami doonaa kibirka, hamiday, iyo labada geesood Adag raadinayaa noo. Waxaan idiin xaqiijin karaa in roonaadaan haweenka noqon doonaa la ilaawi karin.”
“Haweenka MMA waa ciyaar jecel oo kaliya kale oo kasta,” sheegay Reinheimer ee Everett, Massachusetts. “Ma ahan filim action ah halka ay geesiga ku egyahay duurka dhexdiisa muddo saddex maalmood ah inuu tababar la qaato ah sayidkiisa fanka legdinta iyo markaas guuldarro ciidan oo dhan. Ma ahan markii Police-baar. Ma ahan gaadmo ah wadiiqo dib. Haweenkan waxaa ay yihiin ciyaartoyda halis ah kuwaas oo tababar ku dadaashaan inaad muddo sanado ah la isticmaalayo tababar wanaagsan, qalabka iyo khayraadka la heli karo. Haweenka tartanka ciyaaraha dagaal ku qaataan kumanaan saacadood oo dhiig ah, dhididka iyo ilmo kaamilayna oo ay cayaaraha. Waxay allabaryo. Intaas waxaa sii dheer, waxaa jira sharciyo iyo xuduud waqti iyo tallaabooyinka nabadgelyo. Marka qof aqoon leh fikradda MMA haweenka, U ekaysiiyaa inay feerka ama dayrka, wax kale oo dadku aad u yaqaannaan. Barkadda haweenka dagaalyahannada ah ee ku yaal New England ayaa si xawli ah u sii kordheysa iyo xaqiiqda ah in ay jiraan haween badan oo kaararka kaararka dagaalka ka tarjumaya taas. My soo horjeeda iyo ayaan yihiin labada kooxood ee halis ah, xerooyinka kar ah. Waxaan nahay labada hooyooyinka iyo waxa ay qaadataa badan oo go'an iyo drive inay sameeyaan ciyaartan halka halmar isla shaqada iyo carruurta. Waxaan la uga shaqaynayay, iyadoo aan kooxda tan iyo markii aan dagaalka ee la soo dhaafay si ay u hagaajiyaan aan ciyaarta dhinac kasta. Waxaan si weyn ugu mahadcelinyaa tababarka la yaab leh iyo saaxiibadiisa ee Sityodtong in si adag igu riixdo ahay. On September 12, waxaad filan kartaa dagaal.”

Qaar, Si kastaba ha ahaatee, qaniino cayayaanka tartanka.
“Waxaan la soo bandhigay in adduunka MMA ka dib saxiixa gabadhayda ilaa fasallada Jiu Jitsu fekerayo waxa ay ahaan laheyd faa'iido iyada loo arrin ku lug leh cayaaraha is difaaca,” dib loogu soo yeeri Hanna Sparrell. “Waxaan daawadey sida waxay ku dhacday in jacayl la ciyaarta, helo xoog iyo kalsooni, oo dhakhso ayaan u go'aansaday inay tahay wax aan u baahnahay inaan sameeyo sidoo kale. Muddo dheer ma qaadan ka hor intaanan jacayl u qaadin Jiu Jitsu naftayda, dibna ugu dambeyntii doonayay inay sahamiyaan dhinacyada kale ee adduunka MMA ugu. In gym waxa uu noqday guri labaad aniga iyo gabadhaada, waayo,, hawlgalayaasha tababarka aan, reer labaad.

Waxaan soo dhaweeyay tartan in, guulaysteen, iyo mid kale oo doonayay. Aaron “Hagar” Lacey ii sheegay oo ku saabsan Young ee MMA iyo waxaan la qasbi karo in aad iska baarto. Ka dib markii la labanlaabo iyada oo ay albaabbadu, isku dayaya oo dhan ee fasalada, iyo wax ka qabashada qoyska kuwaas oo ka dhigtay in ay si gaar ah, Waxaan la khali.

“Mixed Martial Arts waa imtixaanka kama dambaysta ah ee ruuxa aadanaha oo heer kasta: jidh ahaan, maskax ahaan, iyo dareen,” ayaa sheegay in Reinheimer. “Waxaan aad u jecel yihiin gubanaya si uu ku ogaado fog ayaan u tegi kartaa. Waxaan jeclahay inaan ka badnaado waxyaabaha laga filayo oo aan riixo xuduudaheyga taasina waa MMA si kooban. Tan iyo markii aan bilaabay tababarka fanka dagaalka, noloshayda waxa uu noqday xuduud-yar. My nolosha ku derin uu wanaajiyey noloshayda iska qeybsanaan derin iyo ku xigeenkiisa.
