HEAVYWEIGHT CLASH ADDED TO NEF 22 BOJ CARD

Lewiston, Maine (Marec 10, 2016) - New England zápasu (NEF), Číslo jedna regionálna podpora boj Ameriky, sa bude konať ďalšie udalosti, “NEF 22: Všetky cesty vedú TU” na Sobota, Apríl 23, 2016 na Androscoggin Bank Colisée v Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Dneska, NEF announced the addition of an amateur heavyweight bout to the MMA portion of the “NEF 22” boj karta. Nick Gulliver (2-0) sa stretne Dave Smith (2-1) at a fight weight of 265-pounds.

 

Nick Gulliver is a product of John Raio’s First Class MMA gym of Brunswick, Maine, as well as the Foundry – Brazílčan Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) academy located in Farmington, Maine. He made his amateur debut last June at “NEF XVIII,” submitting Sonny Spratt (0-2) v prvom kole. Gulliver followed up that victory with a technical knockout (WHO) win over Jason Field (0-2) this past November a mere 12-seconds into the first round. He hopes another win on April 23rd will put him in line for a shot at the NEF MMA Amateur Heavyweight Title currently held by Billy Leahy (3-1).

 

I’m looking forward to fighting again for NEF on April 23rd, and I’m thankful for the opportunity that Matt Peterson and Nick Disalvo give me to fight for their amazing organization,” said Gulliver. “I’ll be fighting who I think is now the number one heavyweight fighter fighting for NEF, Dave Smith. This kid is a great fighter and good athlete. I’m looking forward to a great fight. I fight for two amazing schools and organizations, the Foundry and First Class MMA. This fight will be the first time I won’t be fighting in front of my father who is sick. It’s a lot for him to go to these events being so sick and on oxygen all the time. But my father stated he would make it to one last fight if I get a title shot. I think fighting Dave Smith and winning would put me in a good spot to fight for a title. I’m looking to get that fight in front of my father who pushes me to be the man I am today. Tak, for three rounds on April 23rd, I’ll be pushing harder than I have in the past to get that opportunity. I’m always looking to impress the crowd. I think fighting someone like Smith will keep the crowd on their feet.

 

Dave Smith is a member of Berserkers MMA based out of Rumford, Maine. Smith has an extensive wrestling background, having gone 147-17 while competing for Mountain Valley High School (MVHS) and winning two state titles in the process. He also wrestled for Plymouth State University (PSU) in New Hampshire. Like Gulliver, Smith finished his first two opponents in the opening round. He is looking to bounce back from a loss to Brendan Battles (2-0) na “NEF 21” minulý mesiac.

 

I’m glad to be on another NEF card,” exclaimed Smith. “I am also very excited to be fighting Nick Gully. Nick has had a couple impressive wins and I think this will be a good fight! So get ready because it’s going to be a hell of a show.

As announced this past Sobota noc na “NEF XIX,” Táborový kotlík “Bigfoot” Leahy (3-1) je naplánovaný brániť NEF MMA Amateur heavyweight titul ten večer proti výzve Dave Smith (2-0).

 

Leahy vyhral inauguračnú amatérsku heavyweight titul na “NEF XVIII” tento rok v júni, keď porazil Smith Berserkers MMA spoluhráčov Ryan Glover (2-1) via jednomyseľným rozhodnutím. Leahy’s decision to take time off from competing rather than to defend the title against number-one contender Smith at “NEF XIX” earlier this week was met with criticism from the Berserkers camp. The heavyweight champion splits time training between Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) v Auburn, Maine a Youngov MMA v Bangor, Maine.

 

Berserkers wants to say I’m avoiding fights?” spýtal sa rozzúrený Leahy. “I’ll clean their whole damn gym out one-by-one. They want to come and try to take my belt from me? Good luck, I’ll see you in November.

 

Dave Smith robil jeho MMA debut tento rok na jar na “NEF XVII” v Lewiston. That night, porazil Sonny Spratt (0-2) by prvom kole technický knokaut (WHO). He followed up that victory with another win at “NEF XVIII” v júni. Tentoraz, to bolo Gravina Guillen (2-4) who fell to Smith in the first round by submission. Smith is confident that he will take the heavyweight title from Leahy on November 21 v Lewiston.

 

“Prvý, Rád by som poďakoval všetkým zúčastneným pri vytváraní tento boj sa stalo,” povedal Smith. “Som si istá, že to nie je ľahké sa dostať Billy spáchať na november, he wouldn’t do it for September. I respect anyone who gets in the cage, vrátane pána. Leahy. I really hope he isn’t expecting a win. Hovorím rovno do Billy–pripravte sa a priniesť svoj pás.”
