The bout will be the first in the newly-created NEF 225-pound cruiserweight division which will fall between the light-heavyweight (205-mapaundi) ndipo heavyweight (265-mapaundi) classes.

 

 

 

Also on the professional card will be a flyweight contest between Portland fan-favorite Ernesto Ornelas (4-7) and undefeated Massachusetts prospect Jose Lugo (3-0). Ornelas is riding a two-fight win streak while Lugo, nicknamed “El Salvaje,” has finished all three of his opponents.

 

Matt Probin (2-0) is scheduled to make his long-awaited debut with NEF when he meets veteran Lionel Young (7-15) mu mpikisano featherweight. Probin has won back-to-back bouts in Vermont via knockout to start his professional career.

Interested featherweights should contact NEF matchmakers via email at newenglandfights@gmail.com. Serious inquiries only please.

BANTAMWEIGHT REMATCH SIGNED FOR NEF 34 IN PORTLAND

Kusiya ndemanga

Portland, Maine (April 30, 2018) - New England Kumenyana (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland, Maine with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave,” lachiwelu usiku, June 16, 2018. Poyambirira lero, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional bantamweight bout to the card. Ernesto Ornelas (3-7) wakhala alembedwa nkhope Carl Langston (0-1) pa nkhondo kulemera 135-mapaundi.

The bout will be a rematch of their fight in Portland earlier this month. Ornelas and Langston initially met at “NEF 33” pa April 14 at Aura. Ornelas, a member of Portland’s The Choi Institute, put on an impressive showing for the duration of three rounds on his way to a unanimous decision win on the judges’ scorecards. The victory was Ornelas’ first in the NEF cage with four previous attempts since the promotion’s inception in February 2012. (He holds a record of 1-0 as a professional in the NEF boxing ring as well.) Not only is Ornelas predicting another win over Langston on June 16 – he promises to finish his foe this time.

“Carl said his nerves got the better of him that night. Osa, they didn’t – Ine got the better of him, once I stepped into that cage and took the center and looked him in the eye,” said Ornelas imperatively. “I saw fear. A true fighter has no fear. June 16, he will see what a true fighter looks like, as he looks up at me from the flat of his back.”

The “NEF 33” bout with Ornelas was Langston’s pro debut after a lengthy amateur career that spanned 16 fights and more than four years. Many of his friends and family had turned out for the event in his hometown of Portland. And while Langston did force Ornelas to the scorecards, the Young’s MMA member was disappointed in his own performance, blaming the loss on nerves. He immediately asked NEF matchmakers for a rematch against Ornelas on the June 16 Portland card.

“I couldn’t be more excited about getting this rematch,” declared Langston. “I asked for this rematch the same night I lost to Ernie. I just wasn’t me that night. It was my first pro fight and my nerves got to me. I just didn’t feel like myself in there. Ndiye anati, I still took him to a decision being that he had nine pro fights and I was making my pro debut. He still doesn’t bring the skill set and talent that I bring to the cage. This was a big mistake for Ernie to accept this rematch. He got lucky the first time, and I promise I will finish him this time. I know what it feels like being in there with him now, and I will make him fold without a doubt in my mind. He’s a mouthpiece, and I’m going to silence him and his groupies.”

STRIKERS WILL BE THROWING BOMBS AT NEF 33 IN PORTLAND

Msanga KUMASULIDWA: Portland, Maine (February 6, 2018) - New England Kumenyana (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland onApril 14, 2018 ndi losakanizika karate-luso lotsatira chochitika Kukwezeleza nkhondo a, “NEF 33: Riptide.” Poyambirira lero, NEF announced the addition of a professional bantamweight bout to the card. Carl Langston (0-0) is scheduled to make his professional debut against Ernesto Ornelas (2-7) pa nkhondo kulemera 135-mapaundi.

 

 

 

 

Carl Langston is one of the longest-active members of the NEF roster, having made his debut with the promotion as an amateur in the fall of 2013. Langston brought an extensive background in Taekwondo with him to the cage, resulting in many exciting striking battles over the years. Langston finished his amateur career with a record of 7-9 and a win over Ornelas’ Choi Institute teammate Henry Clark (3-4) pa “NEF 31″ in Portland last fall. Langston is currently a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

 

 

 

“I couldn’t be more pumped to be making my pro debut in the city of Portland where I grew up,” said Langston when reached for comment. “I’ve been waiting four years for this moment, and I’m going to capitalize on it by finishing this guy, beating him just like I beat his teammate.”

 

 

 

 

There are very few MMA competitors with hands as fast as Ernesto Ornelas. Now residing in Portland, Ornelas was a multi-time Golden Gloves champion during his amateur boxing days in his home state of California. He is currently 1-1 katswiri womenya nkhonya. Ornelas will return to the cage after more than a year-and-a-half absence from MMA competition.

 

 

 

 

“I’m excited to be fighting in Portland, especially under the NEF banner this time,” said Ornelas. “I’ve lived in Portland for about six years and have adopted the city, working and training out of the Portland downtown. I’ve come to know everyone and the city so well, and I’m excited to give Portland a show and show them what’s brewing in downtown at the Portland Choi Institute. As for welcoming Carl into the pro ranks, I know it’s going to an exciting fight. I’ve coached against Carl three times and seen the opportunities he presents stylistically. Ndiye anati, I’ll be two steps ahead of Carl on this one. It’s going to be some thunder and lightning in Portland that night, but everyone knows lightning strikes first and thunder just makes noise. Ndipo April 14 lightning is going to strike—and I’m the one bringing the lighting.”
