Ħalli kumment

Lewiston, Maine (Ġunju 28, 2016) – Less than 24-hours after the announcement of the amateur light-heavyweight title fight between Young’s MMA’s Victor Irwin (2-0) and First Class MMA’s Nick Shea (2-0), fight promotion New England Fights (NEF) released a second championship bout between the two gyms at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS.” Undefeated Rafael “Air Guard” Velado (3-0), Shea’s teammate at First Class MMA, Huwa ppjanat li jiffaċċjaw Jimmy Jackson (3-2), a teammate of Irwin at Young’s MMA, for the vacant NEF mixed-martial-arts (MMA) amateur lightweight title. The title was previously held by Josh Harvey (1-0) of Young’s MMA and vacated last April when he moved up to the professional ranks.

 

“L-ewwelnett, I appreciate the opportunity that NEF has given me to show my skills in the cage,” Said Velado. “There are other promotions in New England, but nobody puts on a show like NEF. I’ve made it very clear that I am here to fight the toughest guys I can and once again I’m getting my way.”

 

In Velado’s last fight, he took on and defeated Mike Peitersen (3-1). In doing so, Velado handed him the first loss of his career. Peitersen is another teammate of Jimmy Jackson at Young’s MMA.

 

“Leading up to the Mike Peitersen fight, he and I respectfully challenged each other to train hard and bring it,” Velado continued. “I believe that we did that and then some. Now I have another Young’s fighter in front of me and I couldn’t be happier. Jimmy Jackson has been looking good in his last few outings and I believe we are a good match-up. I see a trend of BJJ players who come over into MMA and think they are just going to jits their way through every fight. I can assure you that I am not that guy and you will see a constant evolution of skills in my fights.”

 

Jackson will have the opportunity to gain a measure of revenge for his team against Velado. After starting his amateur career at 1-2, Jackson has won his last two in a row, including a submission victory over Kris Welch (0-1) fi “NEF 16” sena li għaddiet.

 

“Fighting Raf is a huge opportunity for me – an opportunity I am very grateful for,” said Jackson when reached for comment. “This is the time for me to show how far I’ve come and how much time and work Chris Young (Young’s MMA head coach) and the rest of the coaching staff and team have put into making me the best version of myself. I do dan għalihom, my team and my family.”

 

“I am pumped to be fighting alongside my First Class MMA brothers and sisters in September and I will be so proud to hand that 155 NEF Championship belt to John Raio (First Class MMA head coach) and tell him, ‘There’s more where that came from,"” said Velado in closing. “As far as ‘Heroes & Villains,’ I believe every man or woman who steps in that cage is a hero, but you have to have a little villain inside you to do what’s necessary to win.”

Ewwel Klassi

Lewiston, Maine (Ottubru 7, 2015) - Tissielet New England (NEF), Amerika Numru ta 'wieħed promozzjoni ġlieda reġjonali, se torganizza avveniment li jmiss tagħha, “NEF XX: A STORJA TA 'VJOLENZA” fuq IS-SIBT, Novembru 21, 2015 fil-Androscoggin Bank Colisée fil Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – mħallta marzjali arti- (MMA) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. On the amateur portion of the fight card, Tim Ewwel Klassi MMA John Raio ta 'Brunswick, Maine se tibgħat inqas minn erba 'kompetituri għall-gaġġa NEF li filgħaxija.

 

Għadhom relattivament fil-bidu tagħha, Ġinnasju Raio kibret, kemm figurattivament u litteralment, since its inception in 2013. Aktar reċentement, it-tim mċaqalqa ġo ġodda, larger space at Fort Andross in Brunswick. With his own base in wrestling, Raio wkoll miżjuda riċentament iħarreġ u klassijiet f'dixxiplini differenti arti marzjal biex jespandu l-tagħlim tal-istudenti tiegħu.

 

“I kellhom viżjoni meta I fetaħ il-gym biex tkun tip ta 'Università ta' tagħlim arti marzjali mħallta,” Said Ray. “A school that included all of the different components of MMA and fitness so that students could pick and chose classes they were interested in. We are adding another fitness class this month and a yoga class soon. Having the same instructor teach everything can be boring to some and instructors that teach every night can burn out. Xi skejjel istruttur waħda li jħoss huma jafu lotta, BJJ (Brażiljan Jiu-Jitsu), Kickboxing, Karate, judo, eċċ. tajjeb biżżejjed biex jgħallmu lilhom kollha f'livell għoli. Jekk inti limitu taħriġ tiegħek għal dak li individwu ma jaf, you can only learn as much as that one individual is able to relay to you. We have a black belt that teaches BJJ-Tim Fawber, ċinturin iswed Kempo li tgħallem impressjonanti -Shawn Tardif, a Boxer pro li tgħallem boxing- James Carville, u I kien wrestler champion stat, I wrestled fil-kulleġġ għal erba 'snin, and I competed in MMA several times. Chris McBean and Katie Baker also teach BJJ. I attend all of our classes. As an instructor and coach, Jien dejjem jkomplu jitgħallmu aktar dwar l-isport.”

 

Raio retired from MMA competition this past June to spend more time with his family and to focus his efforts on developing his students at First Class. He notes the differences between coaching and fighting and the personal sense of satisfaction each provides him.

 

“Dawn huma żewġ annimali totalment differenti,"Raio stqarr. "I imħabba tagħhom kemm għal raġunijiet differenti. I love jikkompetu minħabba I tista 'tpoġġi kollha ta' fokus tiegħi u t-taħriġ fil-ġlieda tiegħi. I love coaching għaliex I tista 'tpoġġi kollha ta' li jiffukaw fuq persuna oħra. I jħossuhom hekk tajjeb kull darba wieħed mill-istudenti tiegħi tirbaħ, huwa daqs li kieku I kien hemmhekk ġlied. Inħoss bħal I tista kaċċa pjan tajjeb u jafu l-logħba tajjeb biżżejjed biex isibu matchups tajba bħala ġellieda progress tiegħi.”

 

Il-prova hija fil-pudina, kif jgħidu, when it comes to finding the right matchups for his students. Fil “NEF XIX” aħħar xahar, Raio’s team went undefeated with three big wins. Nick Shea (2-0) rebaħ tieni MMA tiegħu bout li bil-lejl waqt Hannah Sparrell (1-0) u BJJ ċinturin iswed Rafael Velado (1-0) were victorious in their respective cage debuts. Raio credits cross-training with other gyms and the quality of instruction from First Class coaches for the team’s recent success.

 

“Dan jibda mal-familja atmosfera ta 'ħbiberija tagħna,” Said Ray. “Aħna jippermettu gidjien u l-irġiel u n-nisa ta 'kull età li jattendu kollha ta' klassijiet tagħna ħlief sparring. Mara Jody tiegħi kien ta 'ghajnuna kbira. Għalliema tagħna huma eċċellenti. Ġejna mbierka li jkollhom atleti talent, wrestlers, attakkanti u grapplers jimxu permezz bibien tagħna. They all work hard and put in the time. They all work together and want each other to win. They have positive attitudes and treat each other with respect. We are trying to match seven fighters for NEF next February and have 15-20 istudenti li jfittxu b'mod attiv ġlied fis-sena li jmiss. Many of our students are here to learn and not compete. All of our students are helpful on giving advice and tips. Aħna ferrovija wkoll cross kemm nistgħu. Għandna diversi studenti li ferrovija permezz tas-sistema Foundry BJJ għall BJJ u l-ivvjaġġar biex iħarrġu fil-ġinnasju tagħna għall impressjonanti, wrestling and MMA. Our BJJ coaches are all Foundry BJJ members. Nippruvaw li spar ma Tim Irlandiż birra ta 'kull xahar u għadni ferrovija fil Choi ta (l-Istitut Choi ta Portland, Maine) darba fil-ġimgħa. Hannah Sparrell tmur lil darba fil-ġimgħa Choi wisq.

 

“Meta I-ewwel fetħet il-ġinnasju I was very iffukat fuq it-taħriġ tiegħi stess u ħalli l-istudenti l-oħra jippreparaw għall tissielet tagħhom li xtaqu huma. Now I am fuq quċċata ta 'ġellieda ma sparring obbligatorju, klassijiet minimi kull ġimgħa u obbligatorji iżen-ins. Jekk inti ma tistax tilħaq il-ħtiġiet minimi, inti ma tistax ġlieda għall-ġinnasju tagħna. Inti tista ġlieda bħala indipendenti jew tista 'ssib skola li japprova minnkom taħriġ meta tħoss bhalu. Ilna suċċess kbir peress I bidlu r-regoli.”

 

Fuq Novembru 21, Membru tat-tim Ewwel Klassi MMA Nick Gulliver (1-0) se jkun fl-azzjoni heavyweight kontra Gravin Guillen (2-2). Gulliver won his amateur debut last June in the NEF cage over Sonny Spratt (0-2).

 

“Jien hekk eċċitati għall-ġlieda mill-ġdid għal organizzazzjoni kbira bħal NEF,” exclaimed Gulliver. “Huwa ħass hekk aqwa biex tirbaħ ewwel ġlieda tiegħi quddiem tal-familja u ħbieb tiegħi fil-Androscoggin Bank Colisee f'Ġunju. I ħadmu verament diffiċli għall-ewwel ġlieda tiegħi, imma inħoss bħal I għandhom ħafna li jipprova li myself. Peress naħa tiegħi tqajmet lura f'Ġunju, I ġew taħriġ iebes bl-Ewwel Klassi MMA u Il-Funderija. Instructors tiegħi u coaches huma l-aħjar kulħadd jista 'titlob għal. I ferrovija fl Farmington, Maine mal-Funderija taħt Brianne Genschel u Seth Harris. Huma poġġew tant żmien fit-taħriġ tiegħi matul is-snin u ma nistax nirringrazzjahom biżżejjed. Xi ħadd ieħor Nixtieq nirringrazzja għall-imbuttar me tkun ħabib kbir tiegħi u għalliem Shawn Smith. Shawn hija persuna li qed dejjem taħriġ iebes u nipprova u ferrovija bħat hu ma. Huwa pushes kulħadd fil-ġinnasju li jħarreġ hard. I wkoll ferrovija fl-Ewwel Klassi MMA ma 'John Raio. John hija r-raġuni I jkollhom din l-opportunità għall-ġlieda kontra. John kien tali rwol mudell aqwa u ħabib li myself u ġellieda kollha tiegħu. Kulħadd fiż-żewġ skejjel I ferrovija huma aqwa u huma għalliema kbira. Jien hekk kuntenti niġi għall-ġlieda għall-Foundry u l-Ewwel Klassi MMA. Ħerqana li jkollna lura fil-gaġġa u li juru familja u ħbieb tiegħi kif hard I ilhom jaħdmu. I tixtieq li tkun l-aħjar persuna I jista 'jkun u jien se tagħmel dan. Irrid li jkollhom idejn tiegħi mhux mqajma biss għalija, iżda għall-persuni li jpoġġu daqstant ħin fil dak li tara fil-gaġġa. Ħerqana li jkollna l-opportunità għall-ġlieda mill-ġdid għall NEF u juru l-fannijiet dak li għandi. I wegħda I se ferrovija iebes u tagħtiha kollox I għandek tagħmel l-folla kuntenti. I ma jistgħux jistennew biex tara kulħadd fuq 21 Novembru. Grazzi għall-familja tiegħi u l-ħbieb u instructors għall kollox.

 

Gulliver extols-virtujiet ta 'stil taħriġ Raio fiż-Ewwel Klassi, b'repetizzjoni l-sentimenti ta 'ħaddieħor dwar instructors tqegħid l-ħtiġijiet tal-istudenti ewwel.

 

“Kulħadd fl-Ewwel Klassi MMA għandu l-istess għan u li huwa li tirbaħ,” Gulliver kompliet. “But what separates First Class from any other gym is that everyone will sacrifice their needs and goals to help you win. What is so unique about First Class MMA is that any gym can teach you to fight, iżda bl-Ewwel Klassi, John enseigne inti qalb. Ħares lejn l-aħħar prestazzjoni Ewwel Klassi fil NEF. Li l-qalb kienet. We’re looking to do the same this time around. John Raio is a class act. Hu mhux biss qlubija jew coach, I wkoll jikkunsidraw lilu ħabib kbir. John ma biss jgħidlek biex tagħmel xi ħaġa, hu ma miegħek. Jekk inti qed tegħreq, he’s sweating—and that goes back to my statement that our school has heart. Dan kollu jirriżulta mingħand il-kowċ tagħna, John.”

 

Rafael Velado, li kien l-aħħar xahar rebbieħa fil “NEF XIX” fuq Trial Cory (1-2), se jerġa jirrappreżentaw Ewwel Klassi MMA fuq Novembru 21 meta passi fil-gaġġa oppost Ken Dunn (0-2). Like Gulliver, Velado krediti is-suċċess tat-tim li coach Raio.

 

“Żewġ kelmiet, John Ray,” said Velado when asked to differentiate First Class from other gyms he has trained at. “Stajt mħarrġa f'diversi skejjel madwar l-arti marzjali tiegħi karriera, imma qatt ma jiena jiġu f'kuntatt ma 'coach li mixi il-mixja il-mod huwa ma. I ma jkollhomx biex jgħidlek dak qofol hu, and that work ethic is something that has translated well as a coach. It’s no surprise to most that John has been so successful as an MMA coach. Huwa jilbes kpiepel ħafna bħal mexxej, ħabib, mentor, partner taħriġ u avukat devil meta meħtieġ. Huwa ilu fil pretty ħafna kull sitwazzjoni li inti tista 'taħseb fil-gaġġa, u li tagħtih kredibilità. I trust his advice implicitly and you will see his MMA mind at work when I step in the cage to execute his game plan. Some gyms will destroy every new student that walks through the door, iżda Ewwel Klassi MMA huwa l-antiteżi ta 'dak l-approċċ. Aħna nilqgħu kulħadd u kulħadd li ġejjin ferrovija irrispettivament mill-isfond tagħhom jew l-ambizzjoni għall-ġlieda kontra MMA.”

 

Velado wegħdiet fannijiet li se tara ħafna aktar barra minnu fl bout jmiss tiegħu ma Dunn fil “NEF XX.”

 

“Parti mill me trid kull ġlieda tmur kif kitbu simili debutt tiegħi kontra Cory Trial, imma jien hawn għall-esperjenza kif ukoll. I wera dwar 1% ta 'dak I tista' tagħmel ġlieda aħħar tiegħi, hekk iżżomm għajnejk imqaxxar għal xi ħaġa inti stajt qatt dehru fil NEF.”

 

Pierce Wiegman (0-0) se jagħmel id-debutt tiegħu MMA dilettanti taħt l-awspiċji Ewwel Klassi fuq Novembru 21 fil Lewiston kontra David Thompson (0-1) of the Shatterproof Combat Club. Unlike Velado, Wiegman, li ser idur 30 qabel l-avveniment, has not trained at any other gym prior to joining First Class. Like Velado, madankollu, Wiegman jistgħu jaffermaw li l-irwol Raio jilgħab fis-suċċess ta 'l-istudenti tiegħu.

 

“Jien ma jmur biex jispekula fuq id-differenza bejn reġim taħriġ tagħna versus kwalunkwe ta gym oħra, imma dak li nista 'ngħid huwa li kull ġlieda ġellieda tagħna rebaħ daħal minħabba x-xogħol iebes, dedication and excellent coaching from all of our instructors,” stated Wiegman. “John Raio huwa verament raġel ewwel klassi. Dedikazzjoni tiegħu lill-familja tiegħu, ġinnasju tiegħu, u ġellieda tiegħu taqa unselfishly ħafna. John huwa ħafna appoġġ ta 'kulħadd li ferroviji fil tiegħu ġinnasju gidjien, irġiel u n-nisa u instructors tiegħu. "

 

“Jien biss xxurtjati li saħansitra jkun kapaċi jgħid jien ser tagħmel dan,"Wiegman kompla. "U huwa kollu grazzi għall John u Jody Raio u kollha ta 'għalliema tagħna fl-Ewwel Klassi li għandi din l-opportunità. Win jew jitilfu, Ich danke li NEF talli dawn ġlied u l-gyms madwar l-istat li qed jipprovdu l-pjattaforma għall-persuni li jirnexxi fit jsegwu ħolma tagħhom li ssir ġlied suċċess.”

 

Bryce Bamford (0-0) waslet għall-Ewwel Klassi MMA permezz tal-grupp Funderija BJJ, which cross-trains with Raio’s students. Bamford is scheduled to make his amateur MMA debut in the heavyweight division at “NEF XX.” Bamford sees many similarities between the two teams.

 

“Verità hija, Ewwel Klassi MMA, huwa verament simili għall-Funderija, fir-rispett li kulħadd hemm biex jgħinu kulħadd tikseb aħjar. Huwa simili taħriġ mal-ħbieb, mhux biss taħriġ imsieħba. That’s what attracted me down there. Steel sharpens steel. Il aħjar imsieħba taħriġ tiegħek huma, l-aħjar inti. John jagħti 100% lit-tim kollu tiegħu, u dan jagħmilha diffiċli li ma tagħti 100% lura minħabba li hu hekk involut.”

 

Meta mistoqsi għal previżjoni dwar il-ġlieda tiegħu fuq Novembru 21, Bamford wieġbet permezz ta 'kelma waħda – “Brutalità.”

 

“Għandek tistenna kollha ta 'ġellieda tagħna li jkunu kunfidenti, ippreparata sew, għall-kura avversarji tagħhom fir-rigward u jitilqu minnu kollu fil-gaġġa,” said Raio in closing. “Dawn guys kollha jagħmlu l-ħin tagħhom.”
