NO APRIL FOOLIN’: BOYINGTON VACATES TITLE, ERICKSON FIGHTS POWELL FOR THE STRAP

ZA immediate release: Lewiston, Mejn (April 1, 2016) – The earth-shattering announcement came late last night. New England Borbe (NEF) Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Professional Lightweight Champion Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (13-8) took to Facebook to notify his fans that he had vacated the title belt. Some speculated that it could be an April Fools’ vic, but those rumors were later quelled when Boyington himself stated under the thread that his decision had been made for personal and medical reasons, citing recent surgeries and a host of longstanding injuries.

 

“After one of the most inspirational and exhilarating rides of my life, I have talked with my wife, my coaching staff and teammates and have decided it’s now time to let go of one chapter and turn the page for another,” Boyington stated when reached for official comment. “NEF has been there for me since the start and I couldn’t ask for a better group to get me where I want to go. I like the thought of vacating the belt on top and handing it off to one of my teammates, hopefully Josh Harvey (0-0) and I will be excited to watch a couple other lightweight warriors going after the strap. Obviously Jon Lemke has quite a claim to that shot and I see my friend Jesse Erickson in the mix as well. Whatever should happen, I will always cherish every battle I’ve had in the NEF cage. Thank you sincerely to Matt Peterson and Nick DiSalvo.”

 

NEF executives acted quickly and formulated a plan by ponoć to fill the title that sits atop the fight promotion’s most hotly contested professional division. As a new day dawned, that plan had come to fruition.

 

Bruce was a great champion,” rekao je NEF suvlasnik i promoter Nick DiSalvo. “He was the face of this promotion for two years. The 155-pound title is our most coveted championship and there is no shortage of worthy challengers. The decision to fill it as soon as possible was an easy one to make.

 

Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (6-4) i Devin Powell (5-1) will now meet in a five-round contest at “NEF 22: Svi putevi vode OVDJE” to crown a new champion. The bout was already signed as a non-title three-rounder to headline the MMA portion of the April 23rd fight card in Lewiston, Mejn. Both athletes quickly agreed to go five rounds with the title on the line. Both athletes have each won their last three fights in a row respectively.

 

I am honored to be able to fight for the title which I saw Bruce Boyington recently defend against Jon Lemke (5-4) in the best local fight I’ve ever gotten to see,” said Powell. “I hope Jesse and I can put on a show for the fans that can be talked about for years to come. I’ve been training too hard and too long to not hop on this opportunity. I can’t wait to get in that cage April 23rdin front of an always amped up NEF crowd!”

 

Speaking of Lemke, NEF executives placed one condition on the upcoming Erickson-Powell bout – the winner must make his first defense of the lightweight title against Lemke. Lemke lost a very close split decision in an attempt to claim the title from Boyington earlier this year. That fight has been calledthe greatest fight to ever take place in the NEF MMA cageby many observers.

 

Jon Lemke more-than deserves another crack at the strap,” said NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson. “His bout with Bruce at ‘NEF 21was nothing short of epic. I was completely spellbound watching that fight for the full 25-minutes it was contested. It’s a bittersweet time at NEF. Bruce was a great fighting champion and despite the high stakes every time he stepped into the cage, he was always one of the most active competitors on the NEF roster. Bruce’s warrior spirit and memorable performances in the NEF cage will be dearly missed, but we are fortunate to have so many superb athletes waiting in the wings right behind him to fill that void. There will be no shortage of upcoming action in the NEF lightweight division.

 

“It was a privilege and honor to fight Bruce for the lightweight title,” stated Lemke when reached for comment. “After the fight, I was pretty confident I did enough to win. Sada, after watching the fight numerous times, there is no doubt in my mind that I won that fight. If Bruce doesn’t want to fight me again and vacate his belt, I understand and respect that decision. Međutim, I am hungrier than ever and want what I believe is rightfully mine. It would be an honor to fight the winner of Erickson versus Powell for the title and I very much look forward to it.”

 

The April 23rd bout will be Jesse Erickson’s third attempt to capture the lightweight title. He had competed against Boyington twice previously unsuccessfully for the championship.

 

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to compete once again for the NEF lightweight title,” stated Erickson. “I was embarrassed postponing my first fight with Devin due to injury, but it seems everything happens for a reason. To bleed for gold and glory. My Viking ancestors would be proud. Give me the battle I crave, Devin. Victory or Valhalla!”

KONAČNO! LONG-AWAITED BATTLE FOR BANGOR TO TAKE PLACE AT NEF 21

Lewiston, Mejn (Decembar 8, 2015) - New England Borbe (NEF), Amerike broj jedan regionalni promociju borbe, će održati svoj sljedeći događaj, “NEF 21: The Immortals” na Subota, Februar 6, 2016 na Androscoggin banke Colisée u Lewiston, Mejn. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Ranije danas, NEF announced the main event of the MMA portion of the fight card. Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (12-8) će braniti NEF MMA Professional Lagani prvenstvo protiv izazov broj jedan kandidat Jon Lemke (5-3). Both Boyington and Lemke are veterans of the United States Marine Corps (USMC).

 

Boyington is riding high on a three-fight win streak. Earlier this fall, debitira na nacionalnoj pozornici, porazivši Rodrigo Almeida (13-3) na World Series of Fighting (WSOF) card in Connecticut. Boyington followed up that win with a decisive third-round TKO victory over Jimmy Davidson (7-2) prošlog mjeseca na “NEF XX” in a successful defense of his title. A product of Young’s MMA, i šef Boyington je Taekwondo Academy, se nalaze u Bangor, Mejn, Boyington je bio na nezaustavljiv suza od gubitka ne-naslov borba za Jamie Harrison (6-1) early in 2015. He has won six of his last seven in the MMA cage, i drži drugo pobjede u NEF bokserski ring tokom koje staze.

 

“Ne bih želeo da budem Jon Lemke ide u kavez sa mnom upravo sada, to je ono što ja mislim, ako sam iskren,” Said Boyington. “Ja stvarno ne razumijem zašto bi on sada želi borbu sa mnom, i ja vjerujem da će se pojaviti i dati sve od sebe napor, ali ne bih želim da se borim me sada. Ja sam opasan, i moje samopouzdanje je kroz krov i kada je ovako, će to uzeti svjetske klase sportaš me zaustaviti, i moj fokus cijeli ovaj kamp će biti na preostale ponizan i fokusiran. Kada 6. februar dolazi, Ja ću biti najopasniji Bruce Boyington koji je ikada zakoračio nogom u kavezu, i znam da ako želim da bude tamo sada, Ja ću to stvarno biti gladni do tada.”

 

The bout is one that Maine fight fans have waited a long time to see. Boyington and Lemke have stood atop the NEF lightweight division together for several years now, their careers paralleling one another. With Lemke competing out of Marcus Davis’ Tim irski u najbližoj Brewer, Mejn, cross-grad rivala mladih MMA, Boyington and Lemke seemed like natural rivals. But they often passed like ships in the night, and the stars never aligned for an encounter between the two. That was until “NEF XX” prošlog mjeseca kada, samo nekoliko trenutaka prije nego što Boyington odveo u kavez protiv Davidson, Lemke uništile Matt Denning (2-1) in that evening’s co-main event. It was an impressive performance that saw Lemke overwhelm a game Denning as the first round went on. With both Lemke and Boyington scheduled to appear on the February card, a ni nakon protivnika potpisan, vrijeme bilo zrelo za “Bitka za Bangor,” kao navijači su ga nazvali, da konačno preuzme mjesto.

“Ja sam tako nevjerojatno zahvalan i uzbuđen da se bore za NEF opet a posebno priliku da se bori za titulu,” rekao je Lemke. “Oni koji znaju moju priču znam šta je dug put to je bio za mene, which makes it all the more special. Bruce is the man and has done a phenomenal job promoting himself as champion, and in the process brought a lot of attention to the rest of the MMA community in the area. He has a couple of titles with different promotions and had fights on the national stage. He presents a unique and explosive set of challenges that I very much look forward to rising up and meeting that challenge head on. Ovo će biti veliki borba da navijači neće želite propustiti, tako da se ulaznice i doći na dole.”

 

“Ja ne znam da li je to bilo jednom navijači borbu zatražiti da vidi više od ovoga,” exclaimed NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “Čini se da je barem nekoliko puta tjedno ulazimo poruka pitaju 'kada ćemo vidjeti bitku za Bangor između Lemke i Boyington?’ Dobro, to se dešava naFebruar 6 at ‘NEF 21,’ i svi unutar naše organizacije je samo uzbuđeni kao navijače da ga vidim!”

 

“Na poleđini priča ovog meča je neverovatan,” izjavio NEF suvlasnik i provodadžija Matt Peterson. “Ništa se ne proizvodi – it’s completely authentic and gut wrenching.
