Mey 24, 2018 FNU47 Leave a comment

Portland, Maine (Mey 24, 2018) – Last week New England Fights (NEF) released the official card for its upcoming return to Aura in Portland, Maine. The mixed-martial-arts event, mitondra ny lohateny hoe “NEF 34: Home of the Brave,” is scheduled to take place on Saturday night, Jona 16, 2018 with a bell-time of 7:00 pm EDT. NEF matchmakers, na izany aza, were still hard at work on adding fights to the card, and earlier today they announced the addition of an amateur bantamweight bout to the event. Henry Clark (3-4) hiatrika Dave Brown (1-3) amin'ny ady lanjan'ny 135-kilao.

The lead-up to “NEF 34” has been somewhat of a wild ride for Henry Clark. He was originally scheduled to face Florida’s Krishna Scott (0-1) on the card. Just prior to the announcement of the full fight card, Scott’s camp informed NEF that he was pulling out of the fight. Clark remained in training camp at the Choi Institute in Portland in the hope that NEF matchmakers would find him a replacement opponent. When Dave Brown stepped up to the plate, Clark was quick to accept the opportunity to fight in front of his hometown fans and friends once more.

“I’m so grateful that Dave Brown stepped up,” Hoy Clark. “It takes a lot of guts to take a short notice fight. I would have fought anyone on a week’s notice if it meant fighting in Portland. It’s great motivation for me to finish up my camp knowing who I’m fighting. I’m coming to showcase and steal the show.”

Ny tera-tany Morondava, Massachusetts, Dave Brown is a three-fight veteran of the NEF cage. Prior to his time competing in MMA, Brown wrestled for Plymouth State University in Plymouth, New Hampshire. He will return to NEF after a three-year absence following his loss to Norman Fox in the spring of 2015. Brown, “‘Downtown’ Dave Brown” as he is known to his fans and friends, is looking forward to his return to action.

“I’ve seen Henry Clark in action and I have a lot of respect for his abilities,” said Brown when reached for comment. “But come June 16, I’m gonna take him down… all the way afovoan-tanàna!”

NEF manaraka mifangaro-miaramila-zavakanto hetsika, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave,” will take place at Aura in Portland, Maine on Saturday, Jona 16, 2018. Tickets are on-sale now online at www.AuraMaine.com.

His streak was brought to a halt by the tough Wayne Ahlquist (1-1) later that fall. Ewer would take more than a year off to serve his country in the United States Air Force security forces. Now back home and training with his teammates at Young’s, Ewer andrin'i naka fanahy ny tenany indray mandeha indray tao amin'ny tranom-borona MMA NEF.

Barry has become known as a “Mpanefa” any amin'ny faritra, rehefa resy ny mpanohitra telo ara-teknika amin'ny alalan'ny knockout (WHO) and one via submission. His only loss to date came by judge’s decision. Already having put in two fight camps for a planned pro-debut that never happened, Barry no matoky fa izy no ao amin'ny tsara indrindra ny asa endrika ary hahita fahombiazana amin'ny Ewer NEF fanjanahan'i ny vola.

“Noraisiko ady izany, satria efa nisy ny mpomba ny fanjanahan'i latsaka in-droa,” Hoy Barry. “Efa mampiofana ho an'ny mpanohana ady nandritra ny dimy volana izao, izany eo amin'ny lafiny-pana, he’s gonna be in for a surprise. In terms of fighting, Heveriko outclass azy aho isaky ny lafiny tokana. From watching his fights, dia toa natahotra ny Bang, ary raha izy no natahotra ny Bang amiko, dia hantsoiko nandondona avy haingana.”
