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 جمعہ کو."

LACEY TO TAKE ON BELLATOR VETERAN AT NEF 28

ایک تبصرہ چھوڑ دو

 

فوری رہائی کے لئے: Lewiston, مین (مارچ 7, 2017) – نیو انگلینڈ لڑائی (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” ہفتہ کے روز, اپریل 29, 2017 Lewiston میں Androscoggin بینک Colisee میں, مین. آج پہلے, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. ہارون “لگاتار” Lacey میں (4-0) چہرے پر دستخط کئے ہیں Walter “All-Day” Smith-Cotito (4-5) 145-پونڈ کے ایک لڑائی کے وزن میں.

ہارون Lacey میں, undefeated as a professional, has won seven in a row going back to his amateur career. He was prepared to compete at “NEF 27” گزشتہ ماہ, 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, مشکل میں کام. 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) میں “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) میں “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,” ہفتہ کے روز, اپریل 29, 2017. Tickets are on sale now at the Colisee box office 207-783-2009 ایکس 525 اور آن لائن میں www.TheColisee.com.
