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.

Hall is on a five-fight win streak in the NEF cage going back to his amateur days. His last loss for the promotion was more than four years ago at “NEF 16” against current professional featherweight champion Josh Harvey. Hall closed out his amateur career with three straight wins, including capturing the amateur 145-pound strap.

He continued that success into the professional ranks in 2018. In his pro debut last spring, Hall submitted veteran John Ortolani in the first round with a Von Flu Choke. He followed up that performance with another first round submission, this time over CJ Ewer via D’Arce Choke this past September at “NEF 35.”

Hall cut his teeth on the wrestling mats of Dirigo High School in Dixfield, Maine where he was a two-time state champion. He now represents the Choi Institute based out of Recon Fitness in Portland.

“I am happy to be fighting in Portland at Aura again,” said Hall of the upcoming April 27 bout against Jay Ellis. “I am looking to pick up where I left off in 2018 and continuing my winning streak.”

MONTOYA STEPS UP TO FACE SANDERS ON SEPTEMBER 8 В БАНГОР

Оставете коментар

Бангор, Maine (Август 8, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) ще проведе следващото си събитие за смесени бойни изкуства, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” на Септември 8 в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор. По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional welterweight bout to the card. “The” Райън Сандърс (16-9) ще се изправят Armando “Big Chino” Монтоя (10-6) в бой тегло от 170 паунда.

The bout will be the third for Sanders in front of his hometown friends, family and fans. He is undefeated in the Queen City, where Sanders trains at Young’s MMA. He scored a decision over Derrick Kennington (13-11) two years ago at “NEF представя Dana White: Погледни вътре’ за битка” and a submission of Jay Ellis (15-78) last year at the Cross. Общо, Sanders is on a roll, having won six of his last seven. During that stretch, he captured the NEF Professional Lightweight Title, knocked out veteran John Ortolani (8-13) in a mere 15-seconds, and literally tore Vince McGuiness’ (5-8) arm out of its socket earlier this summer at “34” в Портланд, Maine.

Unfortunately for Sanders, his meteoric rise to the top of New England’s 155-pound division over the course of the last two years has come with consequences. He has called out virtually every other top lightweight prospect in the region in recent months with the sound of crickets as the only response. It is a testament to both Sanders’ skill and the respect, (or fear for that matter), that his peers hold for him. Hence Sanders’ move to the heavier welterweight division to find opponents willing to step in the cage across from him.

“I am excited that I get another chance to fight in my backyard,” said Sanders. “I appreciate Montoya for taking this fight because not many men are willing to fight me regionally. I look forward to displaying my ever evolving tool set come Септември 8 and getting another step closer to being the best in the world. It’ll be a great night for Young’s MMA and myself.”

Armando Montoya is a longtime veteran of the MMA cage. He started his professional career back in 2009 on the West Coast and has competed extensively throughout the Southwest over the years. Montoya has fought for national promotions like King of the Cage and the Resurrection Fighting Alliance. Наскоро, Montoya relocated to Maine where he trains with First Class MMA in Brunswick. The bout with Sanders will be his first fight back from a layoff that began in early 2017.

“I’m excited to be fighting again after a year and a half off,” said Montoya. “Thanks to NEF and Maine for the opportunity to be able to fight for an awesome promotion. Thanks to Sanders. It’s exciting to fight a worthy opponent in September. God is good, God bless us all!”

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” ще види компанията да се завърне в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор, Maine. Предвидено е събитието да се състои Събота, Септември 8, 2018 с време звънец на 7 ч. Билетите са в продажба сега в www.CrossInsuranceCenter.com.

ДЖОШ ХАРВИ ДА СЕ ДЪЛГОЧАКВАНО ВРЪЩАНЕ В ММА КЕЙЗА НА NEF 35 В БАНГОР

Оставете коментар

Бангор, Maine (Юли 16, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) ще проведе следващото си събитие за смесени бойни изкуства, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” на Септември 8 в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор. По-рано днес, промоцията на борбата обяви добавянето на професионален олекотен двубой към бойната карта. Закачка “Закачете” Харви (4-0) ще се върне в клетката, за да поеме Джей Елис (15-79) в бой тегло от 155 паунда.

Борбата с Елис ще се проведе малко след това 16 месеци от последния път, когато Харви се бие в клетката на NEF. Бившият аматьорски шампион в лека категория е непобеден досега в професионалната си кариера. Харви е влязъл в клетката четири пъти в професионалните редици и е завършил и четиримата опоненти в първия рунд с два нокаута и две подавания в своя кредит. Той е член на ММА на Йънг със седалище в Бангор, и “NEF 35” ще бъде първата възможност на Харви да се бие пред феновете на родния си град, семейство и приятели оттогава “NEF представя Dana White: Погледни вътре’ за битка” което се проведе в кръстосания застрахователен център през август 2016.

„Радвам се да покажа подобренията, които направих от последната ми битка,” Каза Харви. “Благодарен за всеки противник, готов да се закачи, със сигурност ще бъде една за макара!"

Противник Харви, Джей Елис, е дългогодишен ветеран в спорта, базиран от Милуоки, Уисконсин, където тренира с Екип Нокаут. Елис редовно пътува до Нова Англия, за да се състезава и е придобил култ в целия регион. Миналото лято, той шокира феновете на Бангор, като се бори с Райън Сандърс (16-9) и почти разстрои фаворита на родния град с опит за подаване, преди Сандърс да успее да спечели победа отзад.

“Толкова се радвам, че се връщам в Мейн, за да изиграя още едно страхотно представление,” заяви Елис, когато беше достигнат за коментар. “Този път ръката ми ще бъде вдигната високо като победителката.”

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” ще види компанията да се завърне в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор, Maine. Предвидено е събитието да се състои Събота, Септември 8, 2018 с време звънец на 7 ч. Билетите са в продажба сега в www.CrossInsuranceCenter.com.

NEF SELLS-OUT AGAIN IN BANGOR AS LOCAL FIGHTERS SHINE IN THE CAGE

Оставете коментар

Бангор, Maine (Август 6, 2017) –There was no place like home Събота night for C.J. Кана, Ryan Sanders and Fred Lear of Young’s MMA in Bangor.

Fighting in front of a sold-out ballroom a stone’s throw from their training headquarters, the three fighters atop the card at “NEF 30” Rumble in Bangor” all posted impressive victories at Cross Insurance Center.

Ewer defeated Mike “The Mustache” Hansen by submission at 1:46 of the first round to capture the vacant NEF pro middleweight title. Lear landed the NEF amateur bantamweight belt, while Sanders tightened his grip on New England’s pro lightweight scene in a non-title triumph.

It was the second consecutive August sellout in the Queen City, a tradition that began with “NEF Presents Dana White: Погледни вътре’ For a Fight” last summer.

After his hard-fought win over the much-traveled Jay Ellis, NEF pro lightweight champion Sanders, Не е класиран. 1 в региона, kept his comments short and sweet while calling out the aforementioned Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) президент.

“You took the wrong guy last year,” Sanders said. “Come get me now.”

Сандърс (15-8) didn’t have an easy road against Ellis, a veteran of more than 80 професионални пристъпи. Ellis had Sanders under control for most of the fight but left himself vulnerable to a triangle choke at 2:34 на първия кръг.

Ewer dispatched Hansen with a similarly swift maneuver.

“It’s a great feeling to win it in front of the home crowd,” Ewer said. “As hard as we worked (в тренировъчен лагер), I didn’t think anything could stop me.”

The sudden ending spoiled Hansen’s hopes of winning a title for the first time in his 13-year mixed martial arts career.

“This was by far the best training camp I ever had. We were just getting warmed up,” Hansen said. “I had a lot more to give, and I’m sure C.J. had a lot of more to give. But hey, we could do it again.”

Lear highlighted the amateur portion of the card with an authoritative second-round knockout of Walt Shea.

Only the bell saved Shea from Lear’s onslaught at the end of the opening chapter. Lear gained the advantage with a kick to the head midway through that round. After nearly locking in an arm bar that could have ended the fight, Lear bloodied the previously unbeaten Shea with a series of strikes.

The end appeared inevitable when Shea needed Lear’s help to find his corner between rounds, and another interrupted attack hastened the finish only 14 секунди по-късно.

An emotional Lear lauded his coach, Chris Young of Young’s MMA, before fastening the belt around the teacher’s waist.

“A lot of people around here know his name, but they don’t know the man,” Lear said. “He’s the first guy in the gym in the morning and the last one to leave at night. He’s the reason we’re all here. He’s the reason we’re successful. He’s the reason some of us aren’t in jail.”

In the first two fights of Josh Jones’ amateur MMA career, Jones dispatched his opponents by one-punch knockout in a total of 24 секунди. It took Carlton Charles one fewer tick of the clock to take out Jones in the stunning conclusion to a touted tangle of former star collegiate athletes.

Charles, a product of the University of Maine football program taking his initial walk to the NEF cage, turned the tables on Jones (2-1) in a middleweight scrap. Jones again went for the early stoppage with a pair of looping shots, but Charles calmly ducked them before landing one of his own and taking the issue to the mat.

“I just love the competition,” Charles said. “You don’t get hit in the face like this on the football field.”

When the combatants regained their feet, Charles backed Jones against the cage and landed two right hands to the jaw. Jones dropped to one knee and absorbed a sharp left to the head. That persuaded the referee to step in and stop the fight, a verdict that left Jones and his First Class MMA camp visibly puzzled.

It was Charles’ second one-sided combat sports victory in a week’s time. He previously delivered a first-round TKO in the amateur boxing ring. Jones suffered his first defeat since making the transition from basketball, which he played professionally in Europe after starring at Bangor’s Husson University.

One look at Петък official weigh-in suggested that the bout between Roger Ewer (251 паунда) and Dustin Freeman (220) might be the typical stand-up, slug-it-out heavyweight affair. Вместо, it turned into a ground-and-pound showcase that was right in Ewer’s wheelhouse. C.J.’s older brother, making his debut in the NEF hexagon at 44 годишна възраст, hammered out the advantage throughout and earned a TKO via unanswered strikes at 2:31 of the second stanza.

Nate Boucher improved to 2-0 with a first-round stoppage of Jeremiah Barkac, who was making his cage debut. Barkac gained an early advantage in the bantamweight bout with a barrage of strikes, but Boucher cleverly gained leverage with his legs and locked in a triangle choke.

Печелят или губят, Bangor’s Angela Young announced that her battle with Jessica “The Black Widow” Borga would be the final fight of her career. Borga (6-3) erased any hopes of a Hollywood ending with a decisive TKO at 2:16 на кръг за отваряне. Млад (2-3), wife of Chris, had never gone less than the distance in any of her prior wins or losses.

In a mutual NEF and MMA debut, Zach Faulkner delighted his home crowd with a second-round victory over David Hart via rear naked choke. Краят дойде при 1:42.

Jesse Hutchinson also enjoyed a triumphant debut in the amateur ranks. He stopped Anthony LaPointe at 2:43 of the first round in a welterweight skirmish.

NEF also announced that the promotion’s next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 31: The Old Port,” will see the company make its long-awaited 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. Tickets will go on sale this Wednesday, Август 9 при www.auramaine.com.
