Lewiston, Maine (Janvye 19, 2018) – The night before the National Football League (NFL) delivers its 2017-2018 season finale, New England Goumen (Nef) will return to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston for the first time in eight months as the fight promotion presents “Nef 32: Super Samdi.” And while New England football fans will have to wait until this Sunday’s AFC championship game to find out whether their beloved Patriots will play in the Super Bowl, area mixed-martial-arts fans learned today which of their favorites will compete at “NEF 32” as promotion executives released the full fight card for the February 3rd evènman.

 

 

Nan evènman an prensipal nan aswè a, Bruce “Joli ti gason” Boyington (14-11) pran sou Taylor Trahan (7-8) at a catchweight of 150-pounds. One of the biggest MMA stars ever to come out of Maine, Boyington will make his return to the NEF cage after a two-year absence that saw him compete on the global stage in places like Russia and New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden. Trahan makes his third trip to Maine to compete. He is coming off a win over Connor Barry (3-2) otòn dènye.

 

 

Arawon “Inplakabl” Lacey (4-1) ap fè fas koupe ak Josh Parker (6-9) nan yon bout plum. Lacey suffered the first loss of his pro career in November when a fight he was arguably on the way to winning was stopped by a doctor due to a cut on Lacey’s head. Parker will look to continue his recent success in the MMA cage after recent victories over Andre Belcarris (0-2) ak Derek Shorey (4-9).

 

 

CJ egyèr (3-0) is out to make history by becoming the first competitor to hold NEF championships simultaneously in multiple weight divisions. Ewer is the reigning NEF Pro Middleweight Champion. Nan “Nef 32,” he has the opportunity to capture the NEF Pro Welterweight Title when he meets Kemran Lachinov (5-2) for the vacant strap.

 

 

Also in professional welterweight action will be Mike “Moustach nan” Hansen (5-8) ak Izayi “Viking a” Erickson (9-7) in a fight billed as “The Berserker vs. The Viking.” Hansen and Erickson have developed a rivalry as coaches of local gyms Berserkers MMA and Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), respektivman.

 

 

Speaking of which, Nate Boucher (2-1), a product of CMBJJ, ak Ryan Burgess (2-2) of Berserkers MMA will headline the amateur portion of the fight card. The flyweights, former teammates on the Mountain Valley High School wrestling squad, have engaged in a recent war of words heading into the bout. The winner will be in line for a shot at the amateur flyweight title later this spring.

 

 

2017 Nef “Rookie pou Ane a” jayda “lil Killah” Bailey (1-0) returns to the cage on February 3rd to meet Florida’s Amanda Gallo (0-1). Bailey made history in November at “NEF 31” by becoming the youngest competitor ever to compete, (and win), nan kalòj la nef. She turned 18, the legal age for competing in MMA in Maine, just a week prior to the event.
