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

Ħalli kumment

 

Billi: 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 IS-SIBT, Settembru 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, fil 96 sekondi.

“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, bħal, ‘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, lili, 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, madankollu.

“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.”

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

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.”

The fight card, titolat “NEF XVI,” se karatteristika żewġ membri tal-aktar ġodda iskwadra ġlieda Maine, Bla ħniena MMA & Boxing, fl bouts dilettanti.

 

Bla ħniena MMA & Boxing twaqqfet fl 2014 by veteran fighter Josh Parker (4-8). Parker has a long history in the NEF MMA cage, wara li ikkompetew seba 'darbiet għall-promozzjoni ġlieda bejn Frar 2012 u Novembru 2013. Aktar reċentement, Parker baqgħet barra mill-gaġġa MMA li tiffoka fuq il-karriera tiegħu bħala boxer professjonali, kif ukoll il-bini ġinnasju tiegħu.

 

Parker fetaħ il-gym fil Benton, Maine as a way of giving back to the fight community. He sees Ruthless MMA & Boxing as a means to introduce young athletes from the area to the burgeoning world of combat sports and provide them with opportunities to compete. That includes his own sons.

 

“Stajt ġiet ħsieb dwar jibdew ġinnasju tiegħi stess għal filwaqt li issa,” Said Parker. “Ġlieda ewwel tiegħi kien kważi għaxar snin ilu meta tifel tiegħi kien tlieta. Now he’s 13 u lesta biex tibda karriera ġlieda tiegħu stess, u I biss kellhom tifel ieħor. I knew it was time to build my boys a place where they can train whenever they want to. This is a fight family.”

“Stajt dejjem ħolmu li tkun tista 'punch xi ħadd fil-wiċċ u ma tmurx għall-ħabs għal dan,” Trial iddikjarat. “Issa li għandi dik l-opportunità, inti aħjar jemmnu li xi ħadd jkollna iweġġgħu.”

 

“Stil tagħna huwa sempliċi, aħna nixtiequ stand u bang,” Parker elaborated. “Meta aħna spar, aħna nixtiequ biex tara li tista 'tolqot l-agħar. Mike Tyson said it best ‘everybody’s got a plan- sakemm huma jiksbu hit.’ We want to give the fans exciting fights. We’re looking for knockouts.

 

“Il-guys fil bla ħniena ġejjin minn kull aspett tal-ħajja- jekk kienx ġlied triq jew ġlied gaġġa dawn kollha daħal mal esperjenza jitfg fists. They each approached me after hearing I was building a gym. Valuri tagħna huma sempliċi- meta inti tidħol fil titlaq ego tiegħek fil-bieb. When you’re a part of the Ruthless team, int mistenni li twettaq lilek innifsek bħala professjonali- sportiv u r-rispett huma għandhom.”

 

Bryant ORICK (3-5) is another Ruthless team member scheduled to make his NEF MMA debut this Saturday night. It will not, madankollu, be his first time in the cage. Orick, nattiv ta 'Ohio issa jgħixu fil Clinton, Maine, has competed in the sport for five years. He is a veteran of eight bouts, ġlieda kontra fl-Istat Buckeye, Kansas u Indiana, to name a few states. Orick hopes to find a home and success in NEF alongside his Ruthless MMA & Boxing teammates. Fil “NEF XVI” dan il-weekend, ORICK se jkunu x-xogħol tiegħu maqtugħa għalih ma undefeated Fred Lear (2-0) ta MMA Young.

 

“Jien joħorġu jagħmlu isem għalija nnifsi fil NEF,” said Orick. “I am ukoll l-eqreb u ser jitqiegħdu fuq juru. I train hard every day, jkollhom coach kbir u teammates. Nothing will surprise me in my upcoming bout.”

 

” Being a coach għallmitni li bil-mod l-isfel u jġibu lura għall-affarijiet bażiċi,” Parker iddikjarat. “Il-ġlieda kontra verament hija pjuttost sempliċi, knock-Guy-oħra barra u inti tirbaħ. I demand 100% minn ġellieda tiegħi, u I jagħtuhom 100% back. Fighting is not a hobby, huwa stil ta 'ħajja.”

The sell-out, madankollu, has always come on fight night. The floor seats for “NEF XVI” kienu mibjugħa out full 17 days prior to the event. NEF executives give partial credit for the quick sales to the addition of complimentary waitress drink service for all cage-side ticketholders. They did not confirm whether or not the promotion was considering adding more floor seats for the event.

 

Kif DiSalvo indikat, fannijiet huma clamoring għar-ritorn ta 'Ray “Kollha Business” Injam li se tiddefendi l--Titolu NEF MMA featherweight kontra Bellator u l-World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) veteranAnthony “Cheesesteak” Morrison (16-9).

Wara li ġġieldu għal promozzjonijiet iżgħar fil-passat, Harvey is clear that the size of the crowd does not matter to him. He will bring his A-game to the cage whether the fight be under the big lights in a world-famous arena like the Androscoggin Bank Colisee or held in a tiny, kamra ħażin imdawwal bil ftit siġġijiet twaqqaf madwar gaġġa.

 

“Personally it doesn’t matter who or how many people are watching,” stated Harvey. “Jien ser jitqiegħdu fuq juru jekk hemmx 20 people or 20,000. I love to entertain. After Caleb hooks on to me he’ll know he’s been in a fight.”

The support from our fans means everything, u ġellieda sħabi tiegħi u nasal lest li tarmi l isfel u jibgħat dar kulħadd ma saħansitra aktar antiċipazzjoni għall-avveniment li jmiss. God has blessed us with another opportunity to do what we love to do in front of so many.”
