Portland, Maine (Mei 3, 2018) - New England Fights (NEF) keert terug naar Aura in Portland, Maine met zijn volgende mixed-martial-arts-evenement, “NEF 34: Huis van de dapperen,” op zaterdag nacht, Juni 16, 2018. Eerder vandaag, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur bantamweight bout to the card. Killian Murphy (1-0) ontmoet Gabriel Diaz (0-1) bij een gevecht gewicht van 135 pond.

Murphy made his cage debut last month at “NEF 33” in Portland with a first-round technical knockout of Krishna Scott (0-1). He followed the footsteps of his older brother Connor Murphy (1-2) into the NEF amateur ranks. Killian trains with Nostos MMA of Somersworth, New Hampshire under the tutelage of UFC signee, and former NEF Pro Lightweight Champion, Devin Powell (8-3). Prior to joining Nostos, Murphy was a standout on the wrestling mats for Marshwood High School in Elliot, Maine where he won a Class A state championship in 2015.

“I’m really excited for my second fight,” zei Murphy. “I’ve got an amazing coach and team behind me. As for the finish, I won’t predict anything. I’ll let all my work in the cage speak for itself.”

Gabriel Diaz is a member of F2 Arena in Gainesville, Florida. Op juni 16, he will not only be looking to avenge his own loss at “NEF 33” to Murphy’s Nostos teammate Zac Richards (1-0), but Diaz will also have the opportunity to avenge his own F2 Arena teammate, Krishna Scott, who was defeated by Murphy at “NEF 33.”

NEF's volgende mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 34: Huis van de dapperen,” vindt plaats in Aura in Portland, Maine op zaterdag, Juni 16, 2018. Tickets zijn nu online te koop op www.AuraMaine.com.
