Carlton Charles (3-2) vai enfrentar Jordan Norman (2-1) para o cinturão de peso médio amador vago.
Antes de entrar no MMA, Carlton Charles deixou sua marca no campo de futebol. Ele jogou pela Windham High School em Windham, Maine e mais tarde levaram a equipe a um título de classe A como assistente técnico. Charles passou a jogar como zagueiro na University of Maine Black Bears. Ele fez sua estreia na NEF no verão de 2017 com uma vitória por nocaute de 23 segundos. Ele superaria esse desempenho com uma vitória por nocaute de 12 segundos em fevereiro de 2018. Depois de uma tentativa malsucedida de conquistar o título meio-médio amador contra Duncan Smith (5-3) último Junho, Charles voltou à jaula há um mês em New Hampshire e conquistou mais uma vitória por nocaute no primeiro assalto.
“Como sempre, Me sinto abençoada e muito grata pela oportunidade de lutar pelo cinturão,” disse Charles. “Eu sei que Jordan já percorreu um longo caminho neste esporte e está sempre treinando forte e melhorando. Procurarei não ser pego por um daqueles grandes ganchos de carne que ele tem nas mãos. Ele é um cara grande e poderoso, e vou treinar duro como sempre para ser capaz de sair e dar o melhor de mim. Eu sei que meus treinadores vão me preparar para este! não tenho dúvidas de que os fãs terão um verdadeiro mimo com este.”
Jordan Norman já percorreu um longo caminho desde sua estreia no NEF em junho passado. Ele perdeu naquela noite por nocaute no primeiro assalto, mas Norman voltaria atirando em suas próximas duas lutas. Ele ganhou uma decisão dividida sobre John Assam (0-1) último outono, e no mês passado terminou Greg Ishihara (0-1) na segunda rodada. Norman representa o Bad Little Falls Dojo.
“Estou honrado pela oportunidade de entrar na jaula do NEF e competir pelo título amador contra alguém como Carlton,” exclamou Norman. “Ele e eu faremos um show incrível para o público de Lewiston. Nós dois viemos lutar e não será diferente no dia 22 de junho. Eu não tenho nada além de respeito por ele e sua equipe. Estou animado para a tarefa em mãos e lutando pelo título dos médios. ”
A luta pelo título dos médios entre Charles e Norman é a quarta já anunciada para o “NEF 39” cartão.

By Joseph Santoliquito/BWAA President
In a pivotal year for women’s boxing that saw the sport reach more people than ever before, two-time United States Olympic gold medal winner Claressa Shields continued to soar, as she successfully defended her two world middleweight titles, then added three super middleweight belts before the end of a campaign that earned her the 2018 Christy Martin Award, which is given to the Boxing Writers Association of America’s Female Fighter of the Year. “I am thrilled and honored to receive the Fighter of the Year award from the Boxing Writers Association of America. It is a dream come true, and it furthers my goal to lift women’s boxing to new levels,” Shields disse. “Em 2019 my goals are to become undisputed champion, to be ranked in the top 10 pound-for-pound list regardless of gender, and to continue the march of women’s boxing toward equality with men.” The 23-year-old from Flint, Michigan becomes the second winner of the award, which was established in 2017. She will be honored at the BWAA’s annual award dinner, which will take place in 2019 at a site and date to be determined. “In such a big year for women’s boxing, it wasn’t a surprise that there were so many worthy nominees for this award, but in 2018, Claressa Shields took things to a new level by becoming a two-division world champion and successfully defending her titles at both 168 e 160 pounds in Showtime and HBO-televised bouts,” said Thomas Gerbasi, chairman of the BWAA’s women’s boxing committee. “That’s impressive in its own right, but the fact that she’s done this all before her tenth pro fight and under the glare of the spotlight that comes with being the face of the sport in the United States made her a unanimous choice for this year’s Christy Martin Award.” Joining Roy Jones Jr., Andre Ward and the late Emanuel Steward as members of the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame’s Class of 2018, Shields began the year on a collision course with middleweight champion Christina Hammer, but first she finished up her business at 168 pounds by successfully defending her IBF and WBC titles with a shutout victory over Tori Nelson in January. Next was Shields’ middleweight debut against Hanna Gabriels in June, and what followed was a Fight of the Year candidate that saw Shields rebound from the first knockdown of her career to win a clear-cut decision and the IBF and WBA belts. Soon after, the news came that Hammer had to withdraw from her November clash with Shields due to ferimentos, mas “T-Rex” didn’t slow down, as she defeated Hannah Rankin and Femke Hermans to successfully defend her middleweight titles while adding the WBC crown to her trophy case. |

Marcos Hernandez Looking to Steal the Show on The Contender Finale
FRESNO, TAL COMO (Novembro 8, 2018) – Middleweight “Mad Man” Marcos Hernandez (12-1-1, 3 KOs) will look to continue his recent success on The Contender finale this Friday at The Forum in Inglewood, Califórnia. The 6-round bout will be televised on EPIX, as he takes on fellow cast member Quantavious Cash (10-1, 7 KOs).
Hernandez, who hails from Fresno, TAL COMO, is the only cast member of The Contender that didn’t lose a single fight on the show, besides Shane Mosley Jr. (11-2, 8 KOs) e Brandon Adams (20-2, 13 KOs), who will meet in the finals. Em sua luta mais recente, Hernandez defeated Daniel Valdivia (14-3, 10 KOs) in a fight that Valdivia was rocked badly in the last two rounds. Some controversy happened after the bout as Valdivia was originally announced the winner, despite being out boxed and beaten, an official at ringside counted the scores again and realized a judging error and announced Hernandez, the rightful winner.
On top of the bizarre ending, Hernandez was cut in the fight and forced to sit, because of his cut. Valdivia replaced him and got dropped and beaten by Shane Mosely Jr., who now is in the finals.
Hernandez is readier than ever now to make things happen as he wishes to keep his momentum moving forward and face the best in the division.
“I have had a great camp with my trainer Henry Ramirez in Riverside, como, and I am ready for Friday night.” Disse Hernandez. “I am going to show all of my skills when I step in the ring and I’m going to steal the show.”
“I have never seen Hernandez train this hard, be this motivated and want to prove a point this badly,” stated his longtime advisor, Peter Lopes. “This is a different ‘Mad Man’.”

I feel that after a couple of fights, I will be up there with the top names in the division. I am just excited to do my thing. I got to the top of the rankings with just natural talent. Now I have a good team behind me with GH3 Promotions, I have a great work ethic, and I am back with my original trainer Adrian Davis. I feel the best is still ahead of me.”

Isiah Seldon ready for undefeated middleweight Tyler Howard on November 16th in Oklahoma City
Atlantic City, NJ (Novembro 1, 2018) – Middleweight Isiah Seldon is getting ready for his biggest fight of his career when he takes on undefeated Tyler Howard in a bout scheduled for eight-round on November 16th at The Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City.
O ataque, which is promoted by Top Rank, will be streamed live on ESPN+.
The main event will see WBO Junior Welterweight champion Maurice Hooker defending against Alex Saucedo.
Seldon (12-1-1, 4 KOs) has been training in Atlantic City under the watchful eye of Bill Johnson.
“I am looking forward to this great opportunity,” said Seldon. “I have been longing for an opportunity to take on a fighter such as Howard as a win will take my career to the next level.”
Team Seldon, has been working diligently with longtime manager Jim Kurtz very excited about the opportunity that Seldon has in front of him.
“It doesn’t get any bigger than fighting on a Top Rank show with an explosive main event between Hooker and Saucedo. The staff at Top Rank has been top notch. I am really excited for Isiah to get this opportunity to display his talents on a big stage. Myself and co-manager Joe Thompson are convinced Isiah is ready to shine on November 16th and it can’t get here fast enough,” said Kurtz, who has managed Seldon from day one.
Kurtz also managed Seldon’s father, WBA Heavyweight champion, Bruce Seldon.
“Isiah has reunited with his original trainer Bill Johnson and they haven’t skipped a beat. This is the first time Isiah has had a full fledged training camp. We haven’t left any stone unturned in preparation for this fight. Isiah’s conditioning is at a point that I have never seen with him before. He is getting great sparring and his improvement working with Bill in preparation for this fight has been incredible. He is ready to show the world a new and improved Isiah Seldon. He has a large legacy to follow being the son of former WBA Heavyweight Champion Bruce Seldon but Isiah is determined to make his own mark on the sport of boxing.”
“He has always had power in both hands, scoring knockdown in almost every fight, but now he is learning to remain calm and finish guys instead of getting overly excited and letting them off the hook. He is punching harder than ever before, putting his punches together and his boxing ability has reached a level where he can control the pace of the fight. We have taken it slow with Isiah considering he didn’t have any amateur fights but we are now at the point where he is ready to make his mark on the Middleweight division.”
“We know Tyler Howard is a good undefeated fighter. He had a good amateur career, comes from a family with a boxing background, and has a solid management team who have done a great job with him. On November 16th we expect a tough fight with some fireworks but we are confident Isiah will emerge victorious and this will lead us to bigger and better opportunities.”
