NEF TURNS THE OLD PORT INTO KING’S LANDING FOR A NIGHT OF NONSTOP MMA BATTLES

Оставете коментар

Портланд, Maine (Април 28, 2019) - New England Битки (NEF) returned to Aura in Portland on Saturday night with its latest mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 38: STORMBORN.”  The event was in homage to the HBO seriesGame of Thrones complete with ring girls attired as the “Mother of Dragons” Daenerys Targaryen and Sansa Stark, as well as a cello player opening the event with music from the hit show’s soundtrack. A capacity crowd of over 1100 was on hand for the action.

В основното събитие, Рас Хилтън (4-2) defeated Charles Penn (0-1) in a heavyweight contest. The ringside physician stopped the bout in the first round when a cut on Penn’s forehead could not be closed. Hylton landed a perfectly-placed straight right hand that opened the gash on Penn’s head and left blood pouring to the mat in a gruesome stream of crimson.

Калеб Hall (3-0) remained undefeated to start his professional career with his third straight win. Hall submitted journeyman Jay Ellis (15-86) in the first round of the co-main event of the evening.

On the amateur portion of the fight card, four titles were at stake.

In the first championship bout of the evening, Tom Pagliarulo (3-1) captured the vacant NEF Amateur Featherweight strap with a unanimous decision victory over Zac Richard (3-1-1).  In doing so, Pagliarulo, a native of Haverhill, Massachusetts, handed Richard the first loss of his career.

Duncan Smith (5-3) defended the NEF Amateur Welterweight Title against Jon Tefft (2-1).  After five hard-fought rounds, Smith was declared the winner on all three judges’ scorecards. It was a good night for Smith’s team of Evolution Athletix. The Saco, Maine-based team went 4-0 on the evening with Smith’s teammates Adina Beaudry (3-0), Keegan Hornstra (4-11), and Megan Rosado (1-1) all picking up wins.

Taylor Thompson (4-0) made short work of Michigan’s Andrea Howland (2-1) to become the first-ever NEF Women’s Amateur Bantamweight Champion. Thompson submitted Howland in the first round with an armbar. The fight was brought to Portland by NEF in conjunction with Queen MMA Media.

В четвъртия, and final, championship bout on the amateur card, Кам Арнолд (5-0) kept his knockout streak alive with a first-round downing of Henry Clark (5-5).  It was the fifth straight knockout for Arnold who retained the amateur bantamweight belt.

The fight promotion also announced several fights for its long-awaited return to Lewiston on June 22 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. The event is titled “NEF 39: ALL-AMERICAN.”

Hometown favorite Jesse Erickson (9-7) will take on Lewis Corapi (8-5) that evening in a lightweight contest. Erickson is a mainstay of the NEF cage and a perpetual top contender to the promotion’s professional 155-pound title. Massachusetts’ Corapi is a seasoned veteran of the New England MMA circuit, finally making his NEF debut on June 22.

Джош Харви (6-0-1) announced that he would return to the cage at “NEF 39” to take on Jordan Downey (5-4) from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Harvey will defend the NEF Pro Featherweight Title that evening looking for his first successful defense since capturing the belt last February in Bangor. Downey is on a two-fight win streak.

Нейт Баучер (4-3) will take on Robert Presley (5-4) for the vacant NEF Amateur Flyweight Title. Boucher has finished his last two opponents in the first round to move himself back into contention for another shot at the 125-pound belt. Presley represents the Lancaster Academy of MMA in Lancaster, Ohio.

In a solemn moment to open the event, NEF paid tribute to longtime staff member Casey Main with a ten-bell salute. The Wiscasset, Maine resident passed away unexpectedly late last week. The promotion dedicated the event to his memory.

CHAMPION ‘KILLA’ KAM ARNOLD – ‘I WANT A BLOODBATH’

Оставете коментар

New England Битки (NEF) bantamweight champion “Killa” Kam Arnold has been perfect so far in his mixed martial arts (MMA) кариера, carving out a flawless 4-0 record with four knockouts since he debuted in the promotion just over a year and a half ago

През месец април 27тата, the 135-pound “King in the North” makes his highly anticipated return to the cage when he is scheduled to defend his title against longtime bantamweight mainstay, Henry Clark (5-4).

Arnold recently joined Jason Floyd onThe MMA Report podcast to discuss his origins in the sport, his reign at the top of the New England 135-pound division, and his goals for the future.

“I fell in love with combat sports at a very young age, mostly boxing,” Arnold explained to Floyd. “I was the youngest of all boys. I grew up in a pretty rough family, and I had to be tough growing up, and my love for combat sports came into the fold. I also played hockey as a kid, so I had a physical upbringing. And I also wrestled when I was in school and it transformed into this. I never thought I was going to be doing MMA as a kid, although I loved it.

“I hit rock bottom when I was a young teen,” Arnold continued. “I hit rock bottom, and my mother came from out-of-state and picked me up, and we moved to Lewiston [Maine]. And I always swore to myself as a kid I’d never move there because I thought it was the worst place in the world. But it was actually the best move I ever made in my entire life.”

When Arnold’s parents—whom he credits for “making me the man I am today”–brought him to his adopted hometown of Lewiston, Maine, he also found a gym family at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (CMBJJ) where he has started training under longtime NEF veterans Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (9-7) and former NEF flyweight champion Dustin Veinott (5-4).

“I’m trying to become a whole complete martial artist,” Arnold stated. “I’m not trying to be known as just this brawler that’s going to go out there and bang with anybody.”

“Bang,” обаче, is exactly what Arnold did in April 2018 when he knocked out David Thompson at “NEF 33: Riptide” in a lighting fast 11-seconds.

“I mean yeah, it was a hell of a knockout highlight reel,” Arnold confessed. “But I’ve been doing that my whole life, man.”

“We were working that overhand right, we knew that was going to be there right from the beginning,” Arnold continued. “I spoke it into existence and that’s exactly what happened. I cracked him with a jab, I saw his head snap back, and then as he’s coming in, he’s coming in very aggressive, he dropped his hand, he’s coming in for an upper cut and he left his chin right on a shelf for me.”

Arnold solidified his position at the top of the New England bantamweight division in June 2018 at “NEF 34: Home of the Brave” when he defeated Killian Murphy (1-2) via fourth-round knockout to become the NEF bantamweight champion. Despite a back and forth battle that brought the crowd to its feet that night, and the culminating moment he landed the knockout punch that iced the win for him, Arnold looks back and still sees room for improvement.

“I just haven’t been able to find that perfect fight, Предполагам,” Arnold pondered. “A lot of people would point to Killian Murphy maybe being that fight for me, but in my eyes that was a very poor performance for myself. I kept my hands very low for a reason, and a lot of people said, ‘Oh, you looked tired.’ If I was so tired, I wouldn’t have knocked him out in the fourth round. I kept my hands low for a reason because of his wrestling ability. And people seem to forget that I used to wrestle too, and I outwrestled him that whole fight. But I was still upset that I shouldn’t have been able to take that many shots as I did with Killian. I should have put him out earlier in the fight.

“It’s hard to get the perfect fight,” Arnold continued. “I talk to other people about it and they’re like, “Dude, it’s so hard.” Even guys that have been fighting for 10, 15 years they’re like, “It’s so hard to find that perfect fight.” Because I was like, “Мъж, is there something wrong with me? I feel disappointed in myself after a win.”

So what does Arnold want out of one of his fights in order to walk away satisfied?

“I want to have a bloodbath,” he admitted. “I want to split somebody wide open, have a doctor stoppage, because I’m beating somebody so badly. I love seeing people’s eyes roll in the back of their heads, I like making people stiff as a board.”

Currently still competing as an amateur, Arnold is already being discussed as a future threat in the professional bantamweight division. Before he turns pro, обаче, he has plans set to defend his title on April 27тата against a very experienced and crafty veteran in Henry Clark, who comes into the bout riding a two-fight win streak.

“Henry’s tough, един,” Arnold warned. “He has a chin on him, he’s a gamer, he’s not going to back down and he’s solid all the way around.”

With his two-year anniversary since his debut still four months away, Kam isn’t anxious and is confident that he has a lot left to contribute to the sport.

“I still have some amateur goals that I want to accomplish and we’re only scratching the surface of my career, наистина,” Arnold stated. “I don’t want to make too much of a premature jump into the next group of talent. But I’m not afraid either, I’ve got to make the decision here coming up shortly, I’d like to get at least a couple more fights in. Depending on how those fights go—I’m one fight at a time—but if I keep on remaining successful, then I can’t see why I wouldn’t go pro after a sixth or a seventh fight.

“I’m very excited for the next chapter,” Arnold concluded.

NEF’s next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 38: БУРЯНА,” will take place on Saturday, Април 27, 2019 в Aura в Портланд, Мейн с час на камбана от 7 следобед Билетите са в продажба сега наwww.AuraMaine.com.

TOP BANTAMWEIGHT CONTENDERS TO SQUARE OFF AT NEF 36 IN PORTLAND, MAINE

Оставете коментар

Портланд, Maine (Септември 17, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) ще проведе своето окончателно събитие от смесени бойни изкуства на 2018, “NEF 36: Битката за златото,” в събота, Ноември 17 в Aura в Портланд, Maine. По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur bantamweight bout to the card. Хенри Кларк (4-4) трябва да се срещне Killian Murphy (1-1) in a battle of top contenders to the promotion’s 135-pound amateur title.

Henry Clark is a member of the Choi Institute based in Portland. След като се започне аматьорски си кариера в 3-1, Clark would lose his next three in a row. He would bounce back this past June with a first-round submission of Jack Greene (2-6) via D’Arce choke at “34” в Портланд. It was a return to form as Clark had picked up all three of his previous wins by submission – all various forms of chokeholds. He previously challenged for the amateur bantamweight title in early 2016 in a losing effort to Johnny Crafts (4-1).

“I’m hyped about this fight with Killian,” Кларк. “He’s as game as they come, but he is nowhere near ready for me. I’ll smash him up, and then next I’ll take that belt and put it around my waist with my own hands. This is my time to shine.”

Killian Murphy is a former Maine state wrestling champion. He captured a title for Marshwood High School in Elliott in 2015. Murphy made his amateur MMA debut earlier this year at “NEF 33” in Portland with a technical knockout of Krishna Scott (0-1). Like Clark, he would also make an unsuccessful bid for the amateur bantamweight title. Murphy lost to current champion Kam Arnold at “34” in a hard-fought battle that will certainly be a contender for “Fight на годината” at the end of 2018. He trains with Nostos MMA of Somersworth, New Hampshire under former NEF Professional Lightweight Champion, и настоящ UFC боец, Девин Powell (9-3).

“I’m excited to fight Henry,” каза Мърфи. “Beating Henry gives me another shot at the title – and winning that belt has always been my goal.”

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 36: Битката за златото,” ще видите, компанията направи своето завръщане Aura в Портланд, Maine. Събитието е планирано да се проведе събота, Ноември 17, 2018 с време звънец на 7 ч. Билетите са в продажба сега в www.AuraMaine.com.

Портланд, Maine (Юни 17, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) made its return to Portland, Maine on Saturday night with the fight promotion’s latest mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave.” A jam-packed house of fight fans took in the action as NEF fighters delivered the non-stop excitement from bell to bell in what many are calling one of the best events the company has ever produced.

БУТ БАНТАМВЕЙТ, ДОБАВЕН ВЪВ ВЕЧЕ СКЛАДЕНА ПОРТЛАНДСКА БОРБА

Оставете коментар

Портланд, Maine (Май 24, 2018) - Миналата седмица се бори в Нова Англия (NEF) пусна официалната карта за предстоящото си завръщане в Aura в Портланд, Maine. Събитието за смесени бойни изкуства, озаглавена “NEF 34: Дом на смелите,” е планирано да се проведе в събота вечер, Юни 16, 2018 със звънец на 7:00 ч EDT. Сватовници на NEF, обаче, все още работеха усилено за добавяне на битки към картата, и по-рано днес те обявиха добавянето на аматьорски двубой в състезанието. Хенри Кларк (3-4) ще се изправят Дейв Браун (1-3) в бой тегло от 135 килограма.

 

 

 

Воденето до “34” е донякъде дива езда за Хенри Кларк. Първоначално той трябваше да се изправи срещу Кришна Скот от Флорида (0-1) на картата. Точно преди обявяването на пълната битка, Лагерът на Скот информира NEF, че се оттегля от битката. Кларк остана на тренировъчен лагер в института Choi в Портланд с надеждата сватовниците на NEF да му намерят заместник противник. Когато Дейв Браун пристъпи към чинията, Кларк бързо прие възможността да се бие пред феновете и приятелите на родния си град още веднъж.

 

 

 

“Толкова съм благодарен, че Дейв Браун се засили,” Кларк. “Необходими са много смелости, за да се проведе кратка битка за предизвестие. Щях да се бия с някого преди седмица, ако това означаваше да се бия в Портланд. За мен е страхотна мотивация да завърша лагера си, знаейки с кого се бия. Идвам да покажа и да открадна шоуто.”

 

 

 

Родом от North Andover, Massachusetts, Дейв Браун е ветеран от три битки в клетката на NEF. Преди да се състезава в ММА, Браун се бори за държавния университет в Плимут в Плимут, New Hampshire. Той ще се завърне в NEF след тригодишно отсъствие след загубата му от Норман Фокс през пролетта на 2015. Кафяв, “'В центъра’ Дейв Браун” тъй като е известен на своите фенове и приятели, очаква с нетърпение завръщането му в действие.

 

 

 

“Виждал съм Хенри Кларк в действие и много уважавам способностите му,” каза Браун, когато беше посегнат за коментар. “Но ела юни 16, Ще го сваля… по целия път Център!”

 

 

 

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 34: Дом на смелите,” ще се проведе в Aura в Портланд, Мейн в събота, Юни 16, 2018. Билетите се продават вече онлайн на адрес www.AuraMaine.com.

Събитието за смесени бойни изкуства, озаглавена “NEF 34: Дом на смелите,” е планирано да се проведе в събота вечер, Юни 16, 2018 със звънец на 7:00 ч EDT.

 

 

 

The main event will feature two rising East Coast prospects when Bangor, Maine’s own Арон “Безмилостен” Lacey (5-1) meets Fayetteville, North Carolina’s Da’Mon “The Diamond” Blackshear (4-1) в категория перо мач. Lacey is coming off a dominant win over veteran Josh Parker (6-9) рано тази година, while Blackshear looks to rebound from the first loss of his professional career last August.

Langston and Ornelas initially met last month at “NEF 33” with Ornelas coming out on top via unanimous decision. Langston immediately requested a rematch blaming his performance on nerves surrounding his pro debut. Ornelas obliged and has promised to finish Langston this time out, leaving no room for question.

 

 

 

The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a pair of title fights. Undefeated Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) перспектива Кам Арнолд (3-0) ще се изправят Michael Crespo (3-3) of First Class MMA for the vacant NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Championship.

Three women’s bouts will take place on the amateur card.

Хенри Кларк (3-4) и Killian Murphy (1-0) both had opponents pull out on them prior to press time. NEF matchmakers are working on finding replacement opponents. Bantamweight and featherweight amateurs interested in either fight are asked to contact NEF via email at newenglandfights@gmail.com. Serious inquiries only please.

HOMETOWN PRIDE IS ON THE LINE IN BANTAMWEIGHT BATTLE AT NEF 31

Оставете коментар

За незабавно освобождаване: Портланд, Maine (Август 24, 2017) -Нови Англия Битки (NEF) will make its long-awaited debut in Portland onПетък, Ноември 3, 2017 at Aura with “NEF 31: The Old Port.” По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur mixed-martial-arts bantamweight bout to the card. Хенри Кларк (3-3) е планирано да се изправят Carl Лангстън (6-9) в бой тегло от 135 килограма.

Henry Clark is a member of the Choi Institute based in Portland. Since his debut in the fall of 2014, Clark has been known for producing exciting moments in the NEF cage. In a memorable bout with Langston’s Young’s MMA teammate, and current NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Champion, Fred Lear (6-2), Clark held onto a triangle choke while Lear viciously slammed him not once but twice. He will look to break a two-fight losing streak with what Clark predicts to be a dominant performance against Langston in front of his hometown fans.

“Portland is my town,” declared Clark. “На November 3rd, I’m showing up to prove that. I’ve got a great opponent in Carl who always shows up to fight, but I’m planning on keeping it a dominant, one-sided affair. Truly my only desire is that of violence, my only intention is victory. Both will be achieved.”

Like Clark, Carl Langston calls Portland home. With a background in Taekwondo, Langston has thrilled NEF fans on numerous occasions with his prolific striking abilities. He knocked out Alex Johnson (2-3) with a series of violent kicks to the body in Langston’s last NEF appearance. Langston says this will be his last amateur fight before turning professional.

“This will be my last amateur fight and there isn’t any better way to go out fighting for NEF’s first card in my hometown in Portland,” stated Langston. “I’m super pumped to be part of this card! Що се отнася до моя опонент, he’s a good guy and I have nothing bad to say about him, but come fight time, I’m going to walk through him. He won’t make it out of the second round. He has nothing to offer me.”

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 31: The Old Port,” will see the company debut in Portland, Maine at the brand new, state-of-the-art venue Aura. The event is scheduled to take place on Петък, Ноември 3, 2017. Билетите са в продажба сега в www.auramaine.com.

За незабавно освобождаване: Lewiston, Maine (Декември 6, 2016) -Нови Англия Битки (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Февруари 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE.” По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the first amateur fight confirmed for the card. Хенри Кларк (3-2) е планирано да се изправят Alex Clark (3-2) при catchweight от 140 паунда.

 

Henry Clark fights out of the Choi Institute in Portland, Maine. With wins over the likes of Sheldon Bang (2-2) and Fred Lear (4-2), Henry earned a shot at the NEF Amateur Bantamweight Title earlier this year. The finish of the bout was mired in controversy as Henry contended that the referee stoppage resulting in a technical knockout victory for Johnny Crafts (4-1) was actually the result of an illegal eye poke suffered by Clark.

 

“I’m coming into to this fight with an iron will and a desire for violence,” declared Henry Clark. “After my last loss, I can guarantee it will not go that way for me again. I’m the best 135-pounder in Maine, and I’m here to prove that. After I take what I want from Alex, there’s only one place for me to go and that’s a championship fight. I look forward to facing the challenges Alex will bring.”

 

Alex Clark is a member of Young’s MMA based in Bangor, Maine. He recently returned to the NEF cage after an extended leave of nearly three years from active competition. При “NEF 26” миналия месец, Alex lost a hard-fought battle against Florida’s Shawn Lunghi (2-0). He will be looking to bounce back from that loss at “NEF 27,” and he promises an exciting contest for fight fans.

 

“I’m super excited about this fight,” said Alex Clark. “Henry is a tough guy with absolutely no quit in him. He’s not afraid to stand and exchange and has good BJJ to back it up. This is an awesome matchup between a couple of strong willed warriors, but I think my strength and athleticism is going to be the difference. Styles make fights and there’s no doubt that this one will be a crowd pleaser.”

 

NEF’s next event, “NEF 27: RESURGENCE” ще се състои на Събота, Февруари 11, 2017 при 7 p.m. Билетите започват от $25 и са в продажба сега в www.TheColisee.com или като се обадите на боксофис Colisee в 207.783.2009, extension 525.

TRASH TALK BEGINS AROUND FEATHERWEIGHT BOUT AT NEF 22

Lewiston, Maine (Февруари 12, 2016) - New England Битки (NEF), Номер едно регионално промоция борбата на Америка, ще проведе следващото си събитие, “NEF 22: Всички пътища водят ТУК” на Събота, Април 22, 2016най Androscoggin Bank Colisée в Lewiston на, Maine. Бойната карта ще включва комбинация от смесени бойни изкуства (MMA) и професионални боксови мачове. По-рано днес, NEF announced the addition of a featherweight contest to the amateur portion of the “NEF 22” борбата карта. Bantamweight Champion Джони занаяти (4-0) will move up in weight to face Taylor Costantino (2-1) при 145 паунда.

 

Crafts was successful last Saturday in his attempt to capture the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Title. He took out Henry Clark (3-2) in the third round of their bout in Lewiston. Crafts is a decorated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) brown belt out of Team New England United (NEW). He also cross-trains with Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) в Lewiston.

 

“I’m excited to step up to 145 to fight Taylor,” said Crafts of the upcoming matchup with Costantino. “I will be very strong at that weight seeing as I cut pretty extensively to make 135. It will allow me to focus on different areas this camp instead of putting a lot of my energy into cutting weight.”

 

Costantino is himself coming off a big win last Saturday at “NEF 21.” It took him a mere 25-seconds to down Frank Johanson (0-1), a training partner of Crafts at CMBJJ, в първия кръг. Costantino is clear that he is coming to fight on Април 23, and he does not plan on engaging in a grappling contest with Crafts.

 

“Respect to him for coming up in weight,” said Costantino of Crafts. “He’s a glorified pajama warrior that has never been punched in the face with any type of authority. He will clinch quickly and look for the takedown. He’ll realize real quick that he has never fought or trained with anybody like me.”

 

Crafts and Costantino are not strangers to one another. Еха, the two met in a jiu-jitsu tournament with Crafts coming out on top.

 

“Taylor and I have competed before in a sport jiu-jitsu tournament,” recalled Crafts. “Taylor says I am a glorified pajama warrior who has never been punched in the face, but if I recall correctly, I submitted him without my ‘pajamas’ no-gi in that tournament pretty quickly. I train with a lot of very talented and tough fighters daily who punch me in the face very hard. People say the same thing about me not getting punched – добре, I have had four fights and they just haven’t had the chance to. Anyone who has trained with high-level fighters will tell you that gi jiu-jitsu only makes you more of a technical fighter. If he doesn’t believe that, that is fine – he will feel it on 23 април.”

 

“Johnny did submit me when I first moved to Maine,” Costantino admitted. “Legit submission, and his pure grappling is definitely high level. My grappling is MMA based, not slow jitsu. It’s grimy, grueling and punishing. Pure grappling, I would worry about his game. But it’s a fight, sport jiu-jitsu means next to nothing to me.

 

“I wish I could say people will get to see my whole game, but I can’t guarantee that. Johnny will feel my power and look to go to his comfort zone. I will break him, you will see quit in his eyes.”

 

“After Taylor won in impressive fashion at NEF 21, he immediately screamed at me while still inside the cage that he wanted a black belt for his next challenge,” каза NEF съсобственик и сватовник Мат Питърсън. “Добре, he’s getting a brown belt in Johnny Crafts who, by all accounts, is due to receive his black belt any day, е перфектен 4-0 in the cage and is the current NEF amateur bantamweight champion. This fight is dripping with drama and will define a future top contender for the featherweight title in NEF’s stacked 145-pound division.”

По-рано днес, the promotion announced the first amateur bout on the fight card. Fred Lear (3-1) трябва да се срещне Хенри Кларк (2-1) при catchweight от 140 паунда.

 

Lear made his amateur debut with NEF in the summer of 2013. He has accumulated a perfect record of 3-0 в клетката NEF, his only amateur loss coming outside the promotion on a fight card in New Hampshire this past spring. Two of Lear’s three victories in NEF have come by strikes while in mount position. He has exhibited one of the most effective ground-and-pound offenses of any amateur currently on the NEF roster. Lear is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

“При подготовката за Clark, ние ще се стремят да извлекат 1% по-добре всеки ден,” каза Lear на неговата борба лагер на Янг. “Съгласно обичайната, това ще бъде усилията на екипа и аз се разпознават и уважават предизвикателството пред нас. Henry is dangerous and versatile.”

 

Lear is correct in his conclusion. Henry Clark represents the Choi Institute in Portland, Maine, and he has shown a wide array of abilities in his first three bouts both on his feet and on the mat. In his debut fight at “NEF XV” миналата есен, Кларк беше рязко с поразително си в първия кръг срещу Sheldon Bang (2-2) prior to submitting Bang off his back in the second with a triangle choke. Clark recognizes that Lear is especially deadly in top position, но е уверен, че той може да дойде размине с победата на Септември 12 в Lewiston.

 

“Аз съм абсолютно луд по тази битка,” възкликна Clark. “Това е най-точната борбата Искам като все по-голям майстор по бойни изкуства. Fred is super tough and a nightmare once he gets on top of you. Това каза, I feel as though I have the skill and ability to ruin Fred’s night on 12 септември. I’m hungry for this challenge.”
