Lewiston, Mejn (Februar 25, 2015) - New England Borbe (NEF), Amerike broj jedan regionalni promociju borbe, vraća na Androscoggin banci Colisee u Lewiston, Maine na April 11, 2015 sa svojim sedamnaestog mješovitim borilačkim-umjetnost- (MMA) događaj. Ranije danas, the company announced the addition of a professional female strawweight bout to the fight card. Kaline “The Dark Angel” Medeiros (3-4) je potpisala u lice Calie “The Honey Badger” Nožar (3-0) at a fight weight of 115-pounds. It will be the first professional women’s fight in Maine since the state legislature legalized the sport of MMA in 2009.
“To je stvarno tužno da je trebalo tako dugo,” rekao je NEF suvlasnik i promoter Nick DiSalvo. “We’re huge fans of women’s MMA in NEF. We’ve tried numerous times to put pro women’s fights together, but they’ve always fallen through. History will finally be made on April 11 i, još jednom, NEF is at the forefront. We hope the fans will come out and support this fight, support women’s MMA. This is a very proud moment for everyone involved. It is a step in the right direction for MMA in Maine.”
This will not be the first time Kaline Medeiros has made history in the cage. U 2013, Medeiros se borio u, i osvojio, the first-ever women’s MMA bout to be contested in Rhode Island. Fighting out of Fall River, Masačusets, Medeiros is a native of Brazil and has been training in MMA since 2008. Having faced top female competitors since arriving in the professional ranks, kao što su Invicta FC veterani Peggy Morgan (3-2) i Stephanie Eggink (4-2), koji je nokautirao u samo sedam sekundi-, Medeiros svakako ima iskustvo i pedigre da se na sljedeću razinu u sportu.
“To je zadovoljstvo pozvati sve svoje fanove za svoje predstojeće borbe naApril 11,” said Medeiros. “NEF is bringing me to be the first ever professional female fighter stepping in the cage, to je čast za mene. Zahvaljujući NEF za priznavanje, i ja jedva čekam da donese uzbudljivu borbu za fanove.”
Michigan’s Calie Cutler has raised a lot of eyebrows since making her MMA debut in 2012. Cutler amassed an impressive 7-1 record as an amateur prior to turning pro. She has finished all three of her opponents as a professional, uključujući i drugog kruga podnošenja pobjede nad Nikki Duncan (0-1) last weekend on a fight card in Michigan. Cutler will look to continue her undefeated streak as a professional on her path towards the big leagues of the sport when she meets Kaline Medeiros on April 11 u Lewiston.
