NO APRIL FOOLIN’: BOYINGTON VACATES TITLE, ERICKSON FIGHTS POWELL FOR THE STRAP
POU PIBLIKASYON IMEDYAT: Lewiston, Maine (Avril 1, 2016) – The earth-shattering announcement came late last night. New England Goumen (Nef) Melanj Martial Arts (Mma) Professional Lightweight Champion Bruce “Joli ti gason” 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’ blag, 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 minwi 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,” said NEF co-owner and 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.”
Izayi “Viking a” Erickson (6-4) ak Devin Powell (5-1) will now meet in a five-round contest at “Nef 22: Tout wout mennen isit la” 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, Maine. 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 called “the greatest fight to ever take place in the NEF MMA cage” by 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 21’ was 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. Koulye a,, 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. Sepandan, 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.”
Nan 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!”

Sou New England Goumen
New England Goumen ("Nèf") se yon batay evènman pwomosyon konpayi. Misyon nef la se yo kreye evènman yo bon jan kalite pi wo a pou avyon de gè Maine a ak fanatik sanble. Egzekitif ekip nef an gen anpil eksperyans nan jesyon espò konba, evènman pwodiksyon, medya relasyon, maketing, legal ak piblisite.
Finalman! LONG-AWAITED BATTLE FOR BANGOR TO TAKE PLACE AT NEF 21
Lewiston, Maine (Desanm 8, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe evènman pwochen li yo, “Nef 21: Imortèl yo” sou Samdi, Fevriye 6, 2016 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisée nan nan Lewiston, Maine. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed-martial-arts (Mma) and professional boxing bouts. Earlier today, NEF announced the main event of the MMA portion of the fight card. Bruce “Joli ti gason” Boyington (12-8) pral fè defans nef mma Pwofesyonèl lejè Chanpyona nan kont defi a nan nimewo-yon sèl contender 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, li te fè premye l 'sou sèn nan nasyonal, bat Rodrigo Almeida (13-3) sou yon Seri Mondyal la nan Goumen (WSOF) card in Connecticut. Boyington followed up that win with a decisive third-round TKO victory over Jimmy Davidson (7-2) mwa pase a nan “Nef XX” in a successful defense of his title. A product of Young’s MMA, ak tèt la nan Taekwondo Akademi Boyington la, tou de ki sitiye nan Bangor, Maine, Boyington te sou yon chire irézistibl depi pèdi yon batay ki pa Peye-tit nan Jamie Harrison (6-1) early in 2015. He has won six of his last seven in the MMA cage, ak kenbe yon lòt viktwa nan bag la boksè nef nan kou a pandan ke kouri.
“Mwen pa ta vle yo dwe Jon Lemke pral antre nan ki kaj avè m 'dwa sou kounye a, sa a, se sa m ap panse, si mwen yo rete onèt,” Di Boyington. “Mwen pa reyèlman konprann pou ki sa li ta vle yon batay avè m 'kounye a, e mwen kwè li pral montre moute epi bay pi bon efò l ', men mwen pa ta vle al goumen m 'kounye a. Mwen se danjere, ak konfyans mwen an se nan do kay la ak lè li a tankou sa a, li se pral pran yon atlèt mond-klas yo sispann m ', ak konsantre m 'kan sa a tout antye pral sou rete enb ak konsantre. Lè Fevriye 6th vini, Mwen pral pi danjere Bruce Boyington a ki te janm te demisyone pye nan kalòj la, e mwen konnen si mwen vle yo dwe nan gen kounye a, Mwen vrèman pral fè grangou pa lè sa a.”
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’ Ekip Ilandè nan Brewer ki tou pre, Maine, rival li a kwa vil-a Mma Young nan, 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” mwa pase a lè, jis moman anvan Boyington pran nan kalòj la kont Davidson, Lemke venkr 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, ak ni li te gen yon advèsè siyen, tan an te mi pou la “Batay pou Bangor,” kòm fanatik te ame li, finalman pran plas.
“Mwen se konsa èkstrèmeman rekonesan ak eksite yo dwe goumen pou nef yon lòt fwa ankò epi sitou yon opòtinite pou goumen pou tit la,” di Lemke. “Moun ki konnen m 'konnen ki sa istwa gen yon wout ki long sa a te pou m', 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. Sa a se pral yo dwe yon gwo batay ke fanatik yo pa ale nan vle manke, se konsa jwenn tikè ou ak vin sou desann.”
“Mwen pa konnen si gen nan nenpòt ki fanatik batay sèl mande nou sou yo wè plis pase yon sèl sa a,” exclaimed NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “Li sanble tankou omwen yon fwa kèk yon semèn nou ap vin mesaj mande 'lè yo nou pral wè batay la pou Bangor ant Lemke ak Boyington?’ Oke, li nan pase souFevriye 6 at ‘NEF 21,’ ak tout moun nan òganizasyon nou an, se menm jan eksite kòm fanatik yo wè li!”
“Istwa a tounen nan bout sa a se enkwayab,” deklare nef ko-pwopriyetè ak promoteur Matt Peterson. “Se Pa gen anyen manifaktire – it’s completely authentic and gut wrenching. This fight has been a long time coming, ak mwen gen yon santiman ki plon an-an nan Fevriye 6th yo pral kontrèman ak anyen nou te janm temwen nan dekont la nan yon konfwontasyon nan grandè sa a kote pou pi plis pase jis dwa vante yo sou liy.”
