FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO A SHOT AT THE GOLD, JACKSON AND VELADO TAKE MMA CAREERS TO A NEW LEVEL AT NEF 25

 

By: Kalle Oakes

Humility is the undertone for any conversation with Jimmy Jackson about his mixed martial arts career. It was a humbling experience that twisted Rafael Velado’s arm into the world of combat sports in the first place.

One of the men will depart Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston wielding a source of pride – the New England Fights amateur lightweight championship belt – after their clash at “NEF 25: Heroes and Villains” this Laugardagur, September 10.

Mention the idea of his earning a title shot in the hexagon and Jackson (3-2) almost can’t withhold a laugh.

“It’s a big opportunity for someone like me,” Jackson said. “I never thought I would be fighting for a title. I’ve had a ton of teammates come up to me and say, ‘You deserve this! Way to go!’ I just never thought of myself as that top-tier fighter. I’ve always been the guy kind of behind the scenes.”

Easy enough for the Bangor fighter to blend in, considering that he trains at Young’s MMA with the likes of Aaron “Relentless” Lacey, “The” Ryan Sanders, and Josh “Hook On” Harvey.

Fighting for the belt vacated by stablemate Harvey isn’t an endeavor that would have entered Jackson’s mind back in 2012, when he accepted a fight in Vermont on a relative lark. He won via submission, with a choke, í 96 sekúndur.

“My training started out as me and a few other guys messing around in a basement,” Jackson said. “My first fight was spur of the moment. I won and it sort of got the adrenaline going, eins, ‘I can do this. I did pretty good.’”

Through a co-worker, he connected up with Young’s MMA.

After a learning curve that included back-to-back losses in 2013, Jackson steadily improved and defeated two consecutive opponents to earn his title opportunity.

“It’s a blessing and a curse. It’s truly a family. These are guys who truly stand by each other, in hard times, bad times, in and out of the gym,” Jackson said of wearing Young’s colors. “But on the flip side, everybody’s watching you, expecting a certain amount of entertainment from you. I want to perform at such a level that people are excited to watch me fight.”

While most fighters go through the drudgery of training in order to bask in the glory of fight night, Jackson contends that it’s the training he loves most. And entering the cage, he claims, is not about him.

“Fighting, mér, is just what I can do to show everybody what my coaches have accomplished,” Jackson said. “They sacrifice so much to give us fighters the recognition and they get very little recognition in return. The only reason I get in the cage is to represent them.”

Jackson gravitated to MMA with minimal experience in combat sports. Velado, of Norridgewock, brought a decade of jiu-jitsu and a black belt to the table.

That journey had less glamorous beginnings, þó.

“In July 2005, I was playing basketball and a guy on my own team, if you can believe it, punched me in the face. He took exception to something and he messed me up pretty good,” Velado said. “From watching UFC, I thought I knew what to do to defend myself, and I pulled him down with an arm bar. Pathetically, but I pulled him down.”

Velado called it a reality check, one that led him to enroll in jiu-jitsu classes taught by Aaron Blake in Boothbay Harbor.

“I think all guys think they will be able to defend themselves in a situation, and most of those guys are wrong,” Velado said.

In more than three years of tournament competition, Velado said he fought more than 50 times and lost only three matches.

He grew restless and sought a new challenge. It led him to John Raio’s First Class MMA in Topsham. Velado was primed for his debut, but a sparring session with heavyweight teammate Nick Gulliver led to a torn MCL in his knee.

“That took about six to eight months before I fully recovered,” Velado said. “I dropped in on John again in April 2015, and we got a plan together. He got me in there with a lot of good wrestler types, including himself. He let me train with Marcus Davis and some other guys to expand my skill set.”

Velado has won three times in NEF, capped by a split decision over Mike Peitersen of Young’s.

“You’re in for a war. Young’s guys, they’re great. They’re all respectful. They train like savages,” Velado said. “Look who he’s training against…Those guys could fight anywhere in the United States and do well. You can’t not get better training against guys like that. You can’t not be a stud.”

Jackson, who said that MMA has lowered his stress level while reminding him that there is nothing else in life he can’t handle, hinted that he is the underdog on paper.

“He went three rounds with Mike Pietersen, and Mike is a tough dude. I know he’s a black belt in jits,” Jackson said. “I’m taking a realistic approach. I’m more focused on what I need to do and can’t worry about what he’s going to do. I don’t think he’s going to show me anything that I can’t handle.”

The question, Velado said, is whether or not Jackson’s modesty suggests any level of uncertainty.

“The difference between us is that I know I have jiu-jitsu in my tool box. He doesn’t have anything like that in his tool box that I know of,” Velado said. “He’s going to see what level he’s at in this fight. He’s going to find a way to get past me, or he’s going to take a step back and say is this something I really want to be doing? He definitely has to have confidence if he wants to beat me.”

The opening bell on this Laugardagur, September 10 er sett fyrir 7 p.m. The current docket for “NEF 25: Heroes and Villains” includes three professional boxing matches, five pro mixed martial arts bouts and five amateur MMA scraps.

YOUNG’S & FIRST CLASS MEET IN SECOND TITLE FIGHT AT NEF 25

Lewiston, Maine (Júní 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 GuardVelado (3-0), Shea’s teammate at First Class MMA, er áætlað að takast 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.

 

“Fyrst af öllu, 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) á “NEF 16” á síðasta ári.

 

Fighting Raf is a huge opportunity for mean 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. Ég gera þetta fyrir þá, 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.

 

New England Berst 'Næsta atburður, "NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS,” takes place on Saturday, September 10, 2016 á Androscoggin Bank Colisée í Lewiston, Maine.

NEF XVI ágrip: KING heldur; WOOD dethroned; Young MMA Goes 8-1

Tyler King after retaining the Heavyweight Title on Saturday night

The native of Bucksport, Maine hafði flutt til Suður-Karólína í 2014 að stunda markmiði sínu um að keppa í Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Morrison was considered Wood’s toughest challenge to date, hafa sjálfur keppti á landsvísu stigi í Bellator og World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). Enn, Wood var viðurkennd sem uppáhalds fara í bardaga Laugardagur nótt.

The loss was also the sole blemish on what was otherwise a perfect night for Young’s MMA. The Bangor, Maine-undirstaða liðið hafði unnið sín fyrri átta lota á meðan kvöldsins, an amazing feat considering that the Young’s corners were often running back and forth from the cage to the locker room to prepare their fighters for bouts that were mere moments apart from each other. Of particular note, opnun berjast á kortinu lögun Josh Harvey (3-1) af ofsafenginn Young gegnum Top tíu sæti áhugamaður Featherweight Caleb Hall (5-2) með tæknilegum knockout (WHO) victory a mere 36-seconds into the first round.

Marcus Davis Team Irish fór 2-0 á nótt með Ricky Dexter(2-0) tína upp annað sigur af áhugamaður feril hans og Rick Matthews (1-1) getting his first victory. 44-year old Matthews won a decision over Emmett Huber (0-1) en Dexter skoraði stórt knockout á Cory Trial (0-1) í síðari umferð, senda Réttarhald á nærliggjandi sjúkrahús í ferlinu.

 

Highlight-spóla knockouts voru par fyrir námskeiðið á “NEF XVI.” Among them, UFC, Bellator og Strikeforce öldungur Nah-Shon “The Rock-n-Rolla” Burrell (11-5) hafði þegar bloodied Ryan Hodge(6-10) before knocking him out in the first round of their professional middleweight contest. The most-talked-about knockout of the evening, þó, fór til Caleb Farrington (2-0) af Team New England United (NEW) sem lækkaði Brandon “The Enigma” Russell (0-1) with a single right hand just 8-seconds into the first round. The knockout broke the all-time record of 11-seconds previously set by Buck “Knuckles” Pineau (7-4) í apríl 2012.

 

Meira sögu var gert á “NEF XVI” þegar faðir og ekki einn, but two of his sons competed on the same MMA card. Following losses by his sons, Sheldon og Steve Bang (3-3), Dr. Steve Bang(1-0), aðili Mið Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), entered the NEF MMA cage to a loud ovation from the crowd. The bariatric surgeon wasted little time in going to work on his opponent, Matthew Hanning (0-1), taka hann niður og þungur út sigur gegnum dómarann-stöðvun.

 

NFL og UFC The Ultimate Fighter öldungur Tyler konungur (8-2) tókst varði NEF MMA Heavyweight Titill í samstarf helstu viðburði nótt, sigra Terry “The Polar Bear” Blackburn (5-3). King stormed into the arena with a determined fire in his eyes. Mid-way through the first round, Konungur tók Blackburn niður á gólfið og vann fullt Kimura uppgjöf, forcing Blackburn to tap-out.

“Stíll okkar er einfalt, við eins og að standa og Bang,” Parker elaborated. “Þegar við silfurbergi, við eins og til að sjá hver getur ýtt erfiðasta. Mike Tyson said it best ‘everybody’s got a plan- þangað til þeir fá högg.’ We want to give the fans exciting fights. We’re looking for knockouts.

 

“Krakkar á miskunnarlaus koma frá öllum ganga af lífi- hvort sem það var götu berjast eða búr berjast komu þeir allir með reynslu henda greipar. They each approached me after hearing I was building a gym. Okkar gildi eru einföld- þegar þú kemur í þér eftir ég þinn á dyr. When you’re a part of the Ruthless team, þú ert gert ráð fyrir að bera þig eins og a faglegur- drenglyndi og virðing er a verða.”

” Being a þjálfari hefur kennt mér að hægja hann niður og koma með hana aftur til grunnatriði,” Parker sagði. “Berjast í raun er frekar einfalt, högg hina manneskjuna út og þú vinnur. I demand 100% frá bardagamenn mínum, og ég gef þeim 100% aftur. Fighting is not a hobby, það er lífsstíll.”
