“I’m very happy to be here. I want to say thank you to my opponent for accepting this fight. And I’m ready to show you what I do best, which is to punch his face.”

Leandro Higo:

“Thank you to Bellator for the opportunity. ਤੁਹਾਡਾ ਧੰਨਵਾਦ, Budapest, for the reception. I’m very happy to be here and I’m looking forward to putting on a good show ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ੁੱਕਰਵਾਰ ਨੂੰ!"

“I feel no extra pressure because I’m here to do what I love, which is fighting. I’m looking forward to winning another championship belt.”

Adam Borics:

“I’d like to welcome all of you. This is one of the biggest opportunities of my life. I’m very much looking forward to the fight and I’m well prepared, so I can’t wait. I was fortunate enough to prepare for this fight in America with great professional coaches like Henri Hooft.”

“I’m ready. I can hardly wait for my arm to be lifted at the end.”

Anthony ਟੇਲਰ

“Welcome! Welcome! How’s it going? I am the “Pretty Boy”, the prettiest of them all. I definitely want to thank Budapest and Bellator for bringing me in. ਜ਼ਰੂਰ, I bring numbers, ਤੈਨੂੰ ਪਤਾ ਹੈ, so I’m expecting this should bring over a million viewers, hands down.”

“This is the most important fight of my life because there has been much more promotion here in Budapest leading up to the event. I realize that most people in the arena will be cheering for me, and for Hungary. I’ve done my preparation and my homework. I’m excellently prepared and I’m looking forward to this challenge.”

Karim Ghajji

“Thank you for the rematch. It was a big mistake in the first fight. Now I’m going to make it right and bring the belt back home to France.”

“Two days before the first fight I was sick and I had dealt with injuries during that camp, but this time I had a great camp, I’ve prepared myself very well, and this will be an explosive fight ਸੁੱਕਰਵਾਰ ਨੂੰ."

Matt Mitrione remains poised to make an impact in the Bellator heavyweight division following two emphatic wins since signing with Bellator in 2016. The Illinois native and standout defensive end at Purdue University earned All-Big Ten honors in 2000 and subsequently earned his way into the NFL where he played six seasons as a member of the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings. Mitrione ultimately found his way into MMA where he became a high-level competitor, defeating the likes of the late Kimbo Slice, Derrick Lewis and Gabriel Gonzaga.

A known finisher, the pride of Riverside, Calif. will make his promotional debut a winner of four out of five.

Chandler will look to defend his belt for the first time since successfully defending it in a “Fight of the Year” candidate against Benson Henderson ਪਿਛਲੇ ਨਵੰਬਰ. A 16-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Chandler has consistently proven that he belongs among the world’s elite, riding into his bout on ਜੂਨ 24 on a streak of four straight victories.

Also a native of Oregon, the surging Primus remains unbeaten after five consecutive wins to begin his Bellator MMA career. 'ਤੇ ਸਿਰਫ 31, Primus has been committed to honing his craft since he was 13, going as far as to sell his landscaping business to keep his hopes of someday becoming a champion alive. 'ਤੇ ਜੂਨ 24, he finally has the opportunity to make his dreams come to fruition.

LACEY TO TAKE ON BELLATOR VETERAN AT NEF 28

Leave a comment

 

ਤੁਰੰਤ ਰੀਲੀਜ਼ ਲਈ: Lewiston, Maine (ਮਾਰਚ 7, 2017) – New England ਲੜਦਾ ਹੈ (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” ਸ਼ਨੀਵਾਰ ਨੂੰ, ਅਪ੍ਰੈਲ 29, 2017 Lewiston ਵਿਚ Androscoggin Bank Colisee 'ਤੇ, Maine. ਪਹਿਲੇ ਨੇ ਅੱਜ, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. ਹਾਰੂਨ “ਜਾਨੀ” Lacey (4-0) ਚਿਹਰੇ ਨੂੰ ਹਸਤਾਖਰ ਕੀਤੇ ਹਨ Walter “All-Day” Smith-Cotito (4-5) 145-ਗੁਣਾ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਲੜਾਈ ਭਾਰ 'ਤੇ.

ਹਾਰੂਨ 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” ਪਿਛਲੇ ਮਹੀਨੇ, 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 though – the tougher the opponent, ਔਖਾ ਕੰਮ. 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) 'ਤੇ “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) 'ਤੇ “NEF 25” last September.

“I’m super excited to fight this kid that they’re all talking about,” exclaimed Cotito. “He has a lot of potential, they keep saying – good, this just makes it more exciting for me! Nobody has seen the real Walter Cotito in the cage yet. Don’t miss this fight because ‘All-Day’ is coming for you!”

New England Fights returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE,” ਸ਼ਨੀਵਾਰ ਨੂੰ, ਅਪ੍ਰੈਲ 29, 2017. Tickets are on sale now at the Colisee box office 207-783-2009 x 525 ਅਤੇ ਆਨਲਾਈਨ 'ਤੇ www.TheColisee.com.

Leave a comment

 

Julia Budd (10-2) ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ Marloes Coenen (23-8) TKO ਰਾਹੀ (punches) 'ਤੇ 2:42 of round four

 

Quotes: “I have dreamt about this moment forever. ਮੈਨੂੰ ਸੀ, ਜਦ 21 and first started kickboxing, I dreamt about being a champion and I didn’t make it, I lost.” Budd said. “ਇਸ ਲਈ, this is my dream come true. The moment I signed with Bellator, I saw all the champions up there on the banners and I said to myself that i want to be up there with them some day. Now it feels like everything has come together.”

“Theres only one message that I want to give out to all the fighters out there and that’s please listen to your body. I’m very proud of all the women in MMA and I’m very grateful for Bellator,” Coenen said. “This company picked me up when I was in a dark place and Scott Coker has given me so many opportunities throughout my career. Bellator MMA will always be my home.”

Fernando Gonzalez (26-14) ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ Brandon Girtz (14-6) ਸਰਬਸੰਮਤੀ ਦਾ ਫੈਸਲਾ ਰਾਹੀ (29-28, 29-27, 30-26)

 

Quote: “Everything I thought was going to happen ਅੱਜ ਰਾਤ, happened. Every time he was going to go for a take down, I wanted to make him pay for it.” Gonzalez ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ ਕਿ. “I had to keep him busy and make him scramble. My plan was to box with him and then keep him away with the leg kicks. I wanted to make him work and get him tired and it proved to be effective in the third round. My next fight, ਮੈਂ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਹਾਂ Andrey Koreshkov. He is one of the best and Bellator’s former champion. I think I will win that fight, which will put me right in line with ਡਗਲਸ ਲੀਮਾ next.”

ਜਸਟਿਨ Wren (13-2) ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ Roman Pizzolato (8-9) ਅਧੀਨ ਰਾਹੀ (arm triangle) 'ਤੇ 2:35 of round one

 

Quote: “I’m so grateful for Bellator and Spike to be able to come out here, do what I love and perform. ਪਰ, for me, it’s about so much more than the competition, it’s all about knocking some dude out, so that we can knock out the water crisis with my team out there in the Congo,” Wren said. “They are so incredible. I just train them and put the tools in their hands. They are much better fighters than I ever could be in this cage, so I want to be as good as I can, so that I can give them a voice.”

Rafael Lovato Jr. (5-0) ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ Charles Hackman (4-5) via TKO at 0:13 of round one

 

Quote: “I was completely prepared for this fight and had an incredible camp," Lovato Jr. ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ ਕਿ. “I’m just so happy and thankful to be with Bellator now. I’m so excited about my future, so let’s ride this wave.

Quote: "Jonathan Gary is a class act, a great guy, and I’m glad that I had the chance to compete against him ਅੱਜ ਰਾਤ. My retirement caught a lot of people by surprise," Pfister said. “I’m going to take time off to focus on other aspirations, but who knows, maybe I’ll be back. Bellator is a class company and I’m honored that my last fight will be with them. Scott Coker and Bellator know how to take care of the fighters and I really like what they’ve done with the company.”
