TRASH TALK BEGINS AROUND FEATHERWEIGHT BOUT AT NEF 22

發表評論

路易斯頓, 緬因 (二月 12, 2016) - 新英格蘭戰鬥 (NEF), 美國的頭號地區拼促銷, 將舉行下一次活動, “NEF 22: 條條大路通HERE” 上 星期六, 四月 22, 2016在安德羅斯科銀行Colisée酒店在路易斯頓, 緬因. The fight card will feature a mix of mixed-martial-arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. 今天早些時候，, NEF announced the addition of a featherweight contest to the amateur portion of the “22 NEF” 拼卡. Bantamweight Champion 約翰尼工藝品 (4-0) will move up in weight to face Taylor Costantino (2-1) 在145磅.

 

Crafts was successful last Saturday in his attempt to capture the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Title. He took out Henry Clark (3-2) in the third round of their bout in Lewiston. Crafts is a decorated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (巴西柔術) brown belt out of Team New England United (NEW). He also cross-trains with Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) 在路易斯頓.

 

“I’m excited to step up to 145 to fight Taylor,” said Crafts of the upcoming matchup with Costantino. “I will be very strong at that weight seeing as I cut pretty extensively to make 135. It will allow me to focus on different areas this camp instead of putting a lot of my energy into cutting weight.”

 

Costantino is himself coming off a big win last Saturday at “NEF 21。” It took him a mere 25-seconds to down Frank Johanson (0-1), a training partner of Crafts at CMBJJ, 在第一輪. Costantino is clear that he is coming to fight on 四月 23, and he does not plan on engaging in a grappling contest with Crafts.

 

“Respect to him for coming up in weight,” said Costantino of Crafts. “He’s a glorified pajama warrior that has never been punched in the face with any type of authority. He will clinch quickly and look for the takedown. He’ll realize real quick that he has never fought or trained with anybody like me.”

 

Crafts and Costantino are not strangers to one another. Several years ago, the two met in a jiu-jitsu tournament with Crafts coming out on top.

 

“Taylor and I have competed before in a sport jiu-jitsu tournament,” recalled Crafts. “Taylor says I am a glorified pajama warrior who has never been punched in the face, but if I recall correctly, I submitted him without my ‘pajamas’ no-gi in that tournament pretty quickly. I train with a lot of very talented and tough fighters daily who punch me in the face very hard. People say the same thing about me not getting punched – 很好, I have had four fights and they just haven’t had the chance to. Anyone who has trained with high-level fighters will tell you that gi jiu-jitsu only makes you more of a technical fighter. If he doesn’t believe that, that is fine – he will feel it on April 23rd.”

 

“Johnny did submit me when I first moved to Maine,” Costantino admitted. “Legit submission, and his pure grappling is definitely high level. My grappling is MMA based, not slow jitsu. It’s grimy, grueling and punishing. Pure grappling, I would worry about his game. But it’s a fight, sport jiu-jitsu means next to nothing to me.

 

“I wish I could say people will get to see my whole game, but I can’t guarantee that. Johnny will feel my power and look to go to his comfort zone. I will break him, you will see quit in his eyes.”

 

“After Taylor won in impressive fashion at NEF 21, he immediately screamed at me while still inside the cage that he wanted a black belt for his next challenge,” 說NEF共同所有者和媒人馬特·彼得森. “很好, he’s getting a brown belt in Johnny Crafts who, by all accounts, is due to receive his black belt any day, is a perfect 4-0 in the cage and is the current NEF amateur bantamweight champion. This fight is dripping with drama and will define a future top contender for the featherweight title in NEF’s stacked 145-pound division.”

SIRWAN KAKAI MAKES PROFESSIONAL DEBUT AGAINST JOE TAIMANGLO

SANTA MONICA, CALIF. (二月 10, 2015) – The main card of “Bellator 151: 沃倫VS. Caldwell” 上三月 4 is complete with today’s announcement that 吉爾伯特·史密斯 (12-4) will replace 邁克爾頁 and now face 岡薩雷斯 (24-13) 在當晚的合作主要事件.

Smith will be making his Bellator MMA debut against a fighter who is currently in the midst of a four-fight winning streak. “午夜 Magic” is on a bit of a roll of his own, coming into the promotion riding a two-bout winning streak. A veteran of UFC and most recently RFA, Smith won the regional promotion’s welterweight belt in June, defending the title one time before signing with Bellator.

 

Gonzalez took a brief hiatus from MMA to compete in the kickboxing portion of the groundbreaking “Bellator MMA: 炸藥1“ event in September, losing a tightly contest decision to world-renowned striker 保羅“Semtex型爆炸物”戴利. Gonzalez now returns to his comfort zone of MMA, where he has strung together an impressive four-fight winning streak. A veteran of the Scott Coker-founded Strikeforce promotion, as well as World Extreme Cagefighting, Gonzalez has been competing professionally since 2003.

 

Kakai is one of Bellator MMA’s latest signings, joining the fray after a two-fight stint in the UFC. “Zohan,” 26, hails from Sweden and owns 10 finishes in his 12 victories as a professional fighter. With a bantamweight title fight one-week prior and another marquee 135-pound pairing in the main event, it will be interesting to see what a win does for Kakai in the grand scheme of things.

 

Taimanglo will be making his seventh appearance under the Bellator MMA umbrella, and is riding a two-fight winning streak. A Guam-native, “The Juggernaut” has stopped his opponent in 21 of his victories and has only lost twice in his last 14 打架. Look for the 31-year-old to make an impression against the bantamweight division’s newest commodity.

MELVIN GUILLARD NOW FACES DEREK CAMPOS AT ‘BELLATOR 149: 三葉草VS. GRACIE’

發表評論

JUSTIN ‘THE BIG PYGMY’ WREN RETURNS TO ACTION IN EVENT’S FEATURED PRELIMINARY BOUT

SANTA MONICA, CALIF. (二月 2, 2015) –An injury to 邁克Bronzoulis has shifted things during the SPIKE-televised main card of “Bellator 149: 沙姆洛克VS. 格雷西“ 上 二月. 19 在豐田中心在休斯敦, 得克薩斯州. 現在, the lightweight contest will pit 梅爾文Guillard (32-15-2) 針對 德里克場 (15-6).

 

此外, Justin “The Big Pygmy Viking” Wren (11-2) returns to action in what will be his second appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, 當他遇見 胡安·托雷斯（Juan Torres） (4-4) in heavyweight fisticuffs.

 

The fights join a card that already features a double main event — 肯三葉草 (28-16-2) 會見 羅伊斯格雷西 (14-2-3) 第三次和 Kimbo切片 (5-2) 會打的人誰一直叫他出去，因為他們的友誼年前結束, Dhafir哈里斯, 較著名的有“胸部 5000” (2-0). 在輕量級行動, 伊曼紐爾·桑切斯 (12-2) will look to continue his torrid pace when he meets 丹尼爾·皮內達 (21-11) and former light heavyweight titlist 伊曼紐爾·牛頓 (25-9) 戰鬥 林頓瓦塞爾 (15-5).

Guillard suffered a horrific broken hand during his Bellator MMA debut against 布蘭登Girtz 今年早些時候，. “The Young Assassin” has made it clear that he intends on eventually fighting for the 155-pound title, and his road to the gold begins on Feb. 19 against a tough Texas native with plenty to prove. Of Guillard’s 32 贏得作為一個專業, 23 victories have come before reaching the judges’ scorecards.

 

Known as “The Stallion” to those familiar with his mixed martial arts career, Campos will come into his meeting with Guillard riding a two-fight skid. During his eight-fight tenure with Bellator MMA, the 27-year-old Texan has faced a plethora of top lightweight talent, going up against names the likes of: 邁克爾·錢德勒, Patricky弗萊雷, 布蘭登Girtz (2X), and Estevan Payan.

 

You would be hard-pressed to find a better story in all of MMA than the one that Wren can tell. The two-time National High School Wrestling Champion generated massive amounts of media attention on the road to his promotional debut at “Bellator 141: Guillard VS. 佩帶,” where he defeated Josh Burns. His story begins several years earlier, 在 2010, when Wren confronted an opponent tougher than any he could face in combat sports: addiction.

 

With an opportunity to continue fighting on the table, Wren left the sport and began his recovery process. A chance meeting with a friend led Wren on a trip to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where he came across and developed a deep connection with the Mbuti Pygmies, many of whom were enslaved, living on only the scraps the slave masters would pay them with. Wren found his calling there and wanted to do everything in his power to help the Pygmies. With multiple visits to the Congo, including a stint that lasted a year, Wren started a foundation called “Fight for the Forgotten.” Through his efforts, Wren and his staff of 17 have systematically bought the land of the slave owners, and have thus far legally given 2,740 acres of rainforest to the Pygmies, effectively freeing them from slavery.

 

Partnering with other groups like Shalom University and joining forces with Water4.org, Wren and his charity are responsible for drilling 26 water wells to help provide both the Pygmies and the former slave masters with clean water, and have plans to drill hundreds more. 此外, the team has begun a sustainable farming project to benefit and provide food to both the Pygmies and non-Pygmies of the community.
