Jätä kommentti

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Lewiston, Maine (Maaliskuu 16, 2017) – New England Taistelee (NEF) esittelee seuraavan taistelulajien sekatapahtuman “NEF 28: VOITTAMATON” lauantaina, Huhtikuu 29, 2017 klo Androscoggin Bank Colisee Lewiston, Maine. Aiemmin tänään, the fight promotion announced the addition an amateur women’s bout to the card. Alex Walker (2-1) tapaa Katie Baker (0-0) at the strawweight limit of 115-pounds.

 

Walker and Baker were originally scheduled to face each other last month at “NEF 27.” Valitettavasti, a medical issue forced Walker to withdraw from the contest just days before the fight. Now fully healed, Walker is back training regularly at the Kaze Dojo in Lancaster, New Hampshire in preparation for “NEF 28.”

 

“Injuries have plagued me and my team for the last two years, but I am healthy now, so watch out,” exclaimed Walker. “I am going on a run and nothing will stop me!”

 

Losing her opponent so close to the event was definitely a disappointment for Baker and her many fans. Training in the martial arts from an early age, the eighteen-year-old had waited years to compete in the MMA cage. Baker is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine. She made her amateur boxing debut last year.

 

“I was really bummed when Alex withdrew from our fight,” said Baker. “You make the sacrifices it takes to train and diet, not to mention the disappointment of those who purchased tickets. But I knew, and our fans knew, Alex is a warrior and would not back out unless something was wrong. I’m looking forward to finally meeting her in the cage on 29. huhtikuuta.”

Lewiston, Maine (Tammikuu 11, 2017) -Uusi England Taistelee (NEF) palaa Androscoggin Bank Colisee -palveluun Helmikuu 11, 2017 sen seuraavan sekalaisen taistelulajitapahtuman kanssa, “NEF 27: ELPYMINEN.” Aiemmin tänään, the fight promotion announced the full card for the event. The night will feature both amateur and professional MMA bouts.

 

Headlining the evening will be the semi-finals of the tournament to crown a new professional lightweight champion. The title was vacated when previous champion Devin Powell (8-1) signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Ryan Sanders (12-8) ottavat John Ortolani (8-10) kun taas Jon Lemke (5-7) kasvot Jesse Erickson (9-5) in a rematch from Bellator 93. The winners of those two bouts will meet in the finals tentatively scheduled for “NEF 28” later this year.

 

In a highly-anticipated heavyweight bout, Ras Hylton (0-0) tekee hänen ammatillisen debyyttinsä vastaan Mike Hansen (5-4). The 6’6″ Hylton, tai “Rasquatch” as he is known amongst his fans, was voted the “2016 Vuoden tulokas” by NEF fans after going 3-0 amatöörinä. Hansen was a Maine state wrestling champion for Mountain Valley High School (MVHS), and he has developed quite a reputation for downing larger opponents on both the mats and the MMA cage. Hansen was the recipient of the “2016 Submission of the Year” palkinto.

 

Speaking of 2016 palkinnon voittajat, the “Fighter of the Year,” höyhenenkevyt mahdollisuus Aaron Lacey (4-0), will look for his fifth consecutive victory in less than a year when he meets Florida’s Chris Jacobs (1-0). Jacobs put together an impressive 8-3 äänittää amatööri, winning regional titles along the way.

 

The amateur card will feature a bout for the light-heavyweight strap as Ryan Glover (3-1) puolustaa vastaan Victor Irwin (2-0). Glover has held the title since last February. Both Glover and Irwin were Maine state wrestling champions – Glover with MVHS and Irwin with Brewer High School.

 

Also scheduled on the amateur card are no less than three women’s bouts. Angela Nuori (1-2), who put on multiple “Fight Night” performances in 2016, returns to face New Hampshire’s Christine Brothwell (0-2). Young’s teammate, Katie Baker (0-0), will make her in-cage debut against another tough competitor from the Granite State in the form of Alex Walker (2-1), kun taas Sarah Ziehm makes her debut against Nicole Burgess (0-1).

Lewiston, Maine (Joulukuu 14, 2016) -Uusi England Taistelee (NEF) palaa Androscoggin Bank Colisee -palveluun Helmikuu 11, 2017 sen seuraavan sekalaisen taistelulajitapahtuman kanssa, “NEF 27: ELPYMINEN.” Aiemmin tänään, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bout to the card. Alex Walker (2-1) makes her return to Lewiston to take on the debuting Katie Baker (0-0) in a strawweight matchup.

 

24-year-old Alex Walker has appeared twice previously in the NEF cage. Walker debuted in the spring of 2015 at “NEF 17” against Randi Beth Boyington (1-3). She returned earlier this year to defeat Nicole Burgess (0-1) with a third-round armbar. This past summer, she captured her first regional title on a fight card in Vermont. Walker is a member of Team Kaze based in Lancaster, New Hampshire.

 

“I can’t wait to get back to work in the NEF cage,” exclaimed Walker. “2017 is going to be a good year and I am looking forward to entertaining the great fans in Maine! I can’t think of a better way to start the year. The two times I have fought in Maine, they were both FOTN, looking to Threepeat!”

 

Katie Baker, an 18-year-old from Gardiner, Maine, might be new to the NEF cage, but she is well-known within martial arts circles in the Pine Tree State. Baker began training in combat sports at the age of five. She won the Isshinryu World Karate Championship in 2009 ja 2013, and has been a practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for seven years, regularly taking part in local tournaments. Aiemmin tänä vuonna, Baker began competing in amateur boxing. She currently trains with Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

“I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to square off against Alex Walker at ‘NEF 27,'” said Baker. “I have a high level of respect for Alex and her accomplishments. We’re not taking her lightly, and this is going to be a hell of a fight for my debut.”
