PENTRU DIFUZARE: Lewiston, Maine (Martie 16, 2017) – Lupte New England (NEF) prezintă următorul eveniment mixt-arte marțiale “NEF 28: DE NEINVINS” sâmbăta, Aprilie 29, 2017 la Colisee Androscoggin Bank din Lewiston, Maine. Mai devreme astăzi, the fight promotion announced the addition an amateur women’s bout to the card. Alex Walker (2-1) se va întâlni 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.” Din păcate, 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 aprilie.”
