Crespo byl původně naplánován na obličeji Kam Arnold (3-0) na volné NEF MMA Amateur Championship Bantamweight. Killian Murphy (1-0) zvýšilo nahradit Crespo a vzít na Arnold v Aura o titul 135 liber v plánovaném pěti kole záležitost.

Murphy debutoval “NEF 33” minulý měsíc v Portlandu s působivým vítězstvím nad Krishna Scott (0-1) via prvním kole technický knokaut. On není cizí kruhu vítězů. Murphy je bývalý Maine státní wrestling šampion, co zachytil titul třídy A pro Marshwood High School v Elliott v 2015. Dnes, trénuje s Nostos MMA v Somersworth, New Hampshire pod vedením UFC signee, a bývalý NEF Professional Lehká Champion, Devin Powell (8-3). Murphy byl původně naplánován konkurovat Gabriel Diaz Floridy na “NEF 34,” ale Diaz vytáhl z tohoto boje na začátku tohoto měsíce.

„Je to vzrušující vývoj událostí skončit boji za 135 liber pásem,” Said Murphy. “Cílem když jsem začal tuto cestu bylo vyhrát tento pás – a jsem vděčný za tuto příležitost. Chci poděkovat NEF, moji trenéři, mí kolegové a příznivci. 16.června, Beru ten opasek domov Nostos.“

Snad žádný jiný člen NEF kalendáři má běžet v posledních dvanácti měsících, které Kam Arnold měl. Má proplout třemi oponenty v prvním kole jako horký nůž máslem přes zahrnující jedenáct sekund vyrážení veterán David Thompson minulý měsíc při “NEF 33.” Arnold je členem Central Maine Brazilské Jiu Jitsu Lewiston, Maine.

"Za prvé, Chci jen říct ‚děkuji‘ to Killian pro přijetí tohoto boje, a také Matt Petersona pro zjištění mi další soupeře,” řekl Arnold, kdy dosaženo komentář. “Killian to up-and-nadcházející, vzrušující bojovník – a já jsem nadšený, že v rozporu s ním. Vím, že to přijde připraven a on bude mít zájem, aby rošádu toto rozdělení a učinit prohlášení. Budu i nadále tvrdě pracovat, provést úpravu strategii a jít koule-to-the-zeď odtamtud. To bude velký boj – a budu NEF příští 135-pound šampión.“

„Nic vzrušuje mi víc, než když sportovec stupňuje v krátké době a chytí příležitost chytit slávě – a to je to, co Killian Murphy vykonal tím, že souhlasí, aby tento zápas proti neporažený zvířete jako Kam Arnold,” prohlášen za NEF spolumajitel a dohazovač Matt Peterson. “Kam se podíval nezastavitelný, protože debutoval méně než před rokem – a teď se dostáváme k vidět ho vyzkoušet sám proti zdobené zápasníka o šanci na zlato NEF. Jako kdyby tato karta nebyla již v létě ohňostroj – Nyní se dostáváme k vidět dva neporažené cvoky snažit srazit jeden druhého v průběhu pěti kole mistrovství boje s. Není nic lepšího než tohle!"

UFC STAR’S WIFE IN DOUBLE MMA DEBUT ON NOVEMBER 3RD IN PORTLAND

Zanechat komentář

TISKOVÁ ZPRÁVA: Portland, Maine (Září 12, 2017) -Nové Anglie Boje (NEF) uskuteční svůj dlouho očekávaný debut v Portlandu Pátek, Listopad 3, 2017 v Auře s “NEF 31: Starý přístav.” Dneska, bojová podpora oznámila přidání amatérského smíšeného bojového umění na zápas. Carol Linn Powell (0-0) je naplánováno na Francesca Morabito (0-0) in a women’s bantamweight contest.

Carol Linn is the wife of former NEF Lightweight Champion, a současný bojovník UFC, Devin Powell (8-3). Devin earned a contract with the UFC after impressing the company’s president, Dana White, on his web series Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight at an event promoted by NEF in Bangor, Maine last year. Spolu, the Powells own and operate Nostos MMA & Conditioning Facility in Somersworth, New Hampshire. Minulý měsíc, they were awarded the “Best Martial Arts Gym” na “2017 Best of the Seacoast” Ocenění.

“Fighting has been something I’ve fantasized about for a few years and now that it is finally happening, I couldn’t be more excited,” said Carol Linn when reached for comment. “I was supposed to have my first fight in June and it ended up falling through, and I think this fight is a much better match up and is in one of my very favorite towns. Francesca and I have trained together a few times and we were really excited to be a part of each other’s camps, but after realizing what a good matchup we are, we decided to put our friendship aside and both get in there for our first fights. We are very similar, and I’m excited to put a great show on for everyone.”

“I am very excited for my wife to make her debut,” noted Devin. “She’s been around the sport for almost half a decade, but is just recently getting into hard training and the competitive aspect of it. I never told her to fight or said I thought she should. She was very independent in this choice and when somebody chooses to do something on their own and they commit all of themselves to it, I think that is a great equation for a successful person in anything they do. She is going to find out a lot about herself on the 3rd. Happy to have a cage-side seat for it.”

Francesca Morabito trains at the Choi Institute in Portland, Maine. Her true passion lies in her work with non-profit organization Speak About It. Morabito has toured the world as a theatre artist with the Portland-based group, educating high school and college students on affirmative consent, healthy relationships, and sexual assault prevention.

“It is such an honor to make my debut just a couple blocks from where I’ve been training for the past two years,” said Morabito. “I’m elated to fight in my hometown – on the same street where I’ve trudged home on countless Maine winter nights, with my gym bag slung over my shoulder and my wet hair freezing solid underneath my Choi hoodie. My time has come. And I came to win.”

Nef příští událost smíšených bojových umění, “NEF 31: Starý přístav,” uvidí debut společnosti v Portlandu, Maine ve zcela novém, nejmodernější místo Aura. Akce je naplánována na Pátek, Listopad 3, 2017. Vstupenky jsou již v prodeji v www.auramaine.com.

Zanechat komentář

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR TOP MAINE LIGHTWEIGHTS

Zanechat komentář

Bangor, Maine (Červenec 29, 2016) – Devin Powell was enjoying an evening off from his demanding life as a mixed martial arts instructor and fighter.

He was surrounded by food that probably isn’t on his normal training menu. There were celebratory beverages to fit the loud music and party atmosphere at Xfinity Center, the outdoor concert venue in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

Somehow, Powell heard his phone ring, or felt it vibrate in his pocket. The impending conversation altered his day-after plans considerably.

Powell accepted a return engagement with Jon Lemke at “NEF Presents Dana White: Looking for a Fight,” to be held Pátek, Srpen 5 v Cross Insurance Center v Bangoru.

“I found out my good friend Jesse Erickson got hurt,” Powell said, “and they asked me to fill in. I said ‘of course.’ Anybody representing UFC, never mind Dana White, if you ever have a chance to fight in front of them, it’s something you want to do if you’re able. It should be a nice, intimate setting.”

Powell (7-1) is the NEF lightweight champion, having secured the strap with a technical knockout of Erickson at “NEF 22: All Roads Lead Here” in April. Lemke (5-5) lost to previous champion Bruce Boyington in a bid for that belt.

The fight will take place five pounds above the lightweight limit at a catch weight of 160.

“It’s a huge opportunity,” said Lemke, who lives in neighboring Brewer. “I’m very grateful. I’m looking forward to fighting in front of probably the most influential person in MMA.”

Their bout is one of eight professional skirmishes to be showcased in front of White, a native of nearby Hermon, and cohorts Din Thomas and Matt Serra. The trio travels the country in pursuit of undiscovered MMA talent in a reality show that is broadcast on White’s YouTube page as well as the UFC Fight Pass subscription-based streamed video service.

Neither man is known to shy away from the spotlight. Lemke stopped Erickson at Bellator 93 in Lewiston two years ago. Powell pushed his winning streak to five with a split-decision triumph Červen 17 over Tommy Marcellino on the World Series of Fighting stage at Foxwoods.

“I know they’re probably here to watch the guys in the main event,” Powell said of White and his entourage, “but I plan to put on a show that they won’t be able to sleep on. With my fighting style, very aggressive and unorthodox, I believe I definitely will get their attention. This sport is a lot about getting the right opportunity and taking advantage of it.”

When asked if he perceived any edge because Powell took the fight on three weeks’ notice, Lemke politely pointed out that he only began preparing for Erickson two weeks prior to that.

Lemke lost to Josh LaBerge na Červen 10.

“I only had a couple extra weeks to prepare. I was still training, but that’s all. I was in pretty good shape but not in fight shape,” Lemke said. “It’s one of those things where they ask you and you’re like, ‘Oh, jeden, I really want to do this, but.’ It’s just too big an opportunity not to. It’s not necessarily ideal, but as a fighter, absolutely you’re looking for that challenge, and Devin is one of the best guys in the game around here.”

He learned that first-hand, and in resounding fashion, when the two fighters previously clashed on May 10, 2014. Powell prevailed via choke-out in only 23 sekundy.

That setting was Lemke’s comeback fight after his abrupt withdrawal from a title match against John Ortolani eight months earlier.

“It didn’t go very well last time. There were a lot of distractions and different circumstances for me leading up to that fight. I had to pull out of a title fight before that, which you never want to do. Three-quarters of the battle for me was just getting back in the cage,” Lemke said.

“I’m a completely different fighter now," přidal. “I think I’ve progressed everywhere, not just with my skills but with the approach I take. I’ve had quite a few fights and I’ve learned from both the wins and the losses. You always learn. Sometimes you learn the hard way.”

Lemke and Powell each enter the cage for the fourth time in less than a year. That activity is the reason neither man feels uneasy about accepting such a stern challenge after an abbreviated training camp.

In Powell’s case, fighting is simply a natural extension of his everyday life as owner and head instructor at Nostos MMA in Somersworth, N.H.

“I’m grateful for everything I have. I have a 4-year-old daughter and she likes to come to the academy and train jiu-jitsu,” Powell said. “I have a pretty amazing life. I only have to teach, train and fight. A lot of people don’t get more than a couple hours with their kids every night. We sacrifice a lot for this sport. People only see the 15 minutes of hell. They don’t see everything else.”

Powell is pleased to represent NEF for only the third time in his blossoming career.

“NEF is one of the biggest promotions in the country. They make superstars out of guys from Maine,” Powell said. “I fought for World Series of Fighting, and I don’t want to sound like I’m knocking them, but it was a much smaller show. NEF has a huge following, and now you see them going places like Cape Cod and Bangor, and that can only grow it even more. They do it right, and I’m glad to be able to step in there for them.”

Lemke faces the added pressure of fighting in front of not only White but his hometown fans from the Bangor area.

Many of them are not accustomed to the four-hour round trip for his encounters in Lewiston.

“A fight is still just a fight, and the next fight is the biggest fight regardless. You never know who could be there watching or what could happen as a result,” Lemke said, suggesting that he is more concerned with his opponent. “Devin is a phenomenal fighter. He has a great skill set. He’s highly touted and he has a great record to back it up. It’s definitely the challenge of a lifetime for me. He’s also a great guy outside the cage. I get along with him well. I think we respect each other.”

Powell confirmed those suspicions, although he reiterated that his objective is nothing less than another decisive victory.

“He’s a good guy. I don’t have to go to that deep, dark place. I understand that my job is to hurt someone so badly that the referee has to step in to save his life. It’s a beautiful, violent sport. I respect anyone who has the courage to get in there with the same goals as me,” Powell said. “I’m expecting a brouhaha with Lemke. Je to agresivní. Přichází bojovat. I like to do the same things. The first fight was short-lived. If I’m able to repeat that, I’m sure Dana White will be happy.”

ERICKSON OUT, POWELL IN TO FACE LEMKE IN FRONT OF UFC PRESIDENT

Zanechat komentář

Bangor, Maine (Červenec 18, 2016) – When Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) President Dana White comes to Bangor onSrpen 5, 2016 to check out the local talent New England Fights (NEF) has to offer, Jesse “Viking” Erickson (7-5) will unfortunately have to watch from the sidelines. Erickson suffered an injury while training for his bout with Jon Lemke (5-5) previously-scheduled to take place that evening. White will be present to record a future episode of his web series Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight in which professional mixed-martial-artists have a shot at earning a UFC contract based on their performance.

 

Within mere hours of being informed of Erickson’s injury, NEF executives had found a replacement in the form of the promotion’s reigning professional lightweight champion Devin Powell (7-1). The bout will be a non-title contest scheduled for three-rounds at a catchweight of 160-pounds. It is a rematch of a May 2014 NEF fight which Powell won via first-round submission. Should Lemke win the rematch, he will be in line for a title shot in the rubber match.

 

“Opět, I am incredibly thankful and grateful to NEF for making this fight happen,” řekl Lemke. “Getting an opponent change last minute is usually pretty stressful. Not this time, nicméně, as the crew at NEF was on top of it, and the next day I had a new opponent. I am very much looking forward to getting another crack at Devin, as I had a horrible showing in our first fight. Devin is a highly-touted and talented fighter and I expect an all out battle for sure. I have been looking forward to another crack at him for some time and you will see the best Jon Lemke yet.”

 

“Taking a short notice fight against Lemke was a no brainer,” stated Powell. “No way could I pass on a chance to fight a fellow Mainer a few hours away from my mom’s hometown of Allagash, Maine. Dana, I hope you get your popcorn, because you’re about to see a show. Hell or high water, I’m getting my hand raised.”
