Tony Penecale (izquierda) y Lou Duva (derecho) en el Brockton, Dedicación de Massachusetts de la estatua de Rocky Marciano.

Nuestro show de esta semana estuvo dedicado a Lou Duva (arriba a la derecha con nuestro coanfitrión Tony Penecale). Lou murió a principios de esta semana a la edad avanzada de 1994. Fue un gran amigo de Rocky Marciano., un promotor de 19 campeones del mundo, y un hombre que tenía todas sus planchas en el único incendio que encendió su vida: boxeo. El promotor / entrenador / gerente / leyenda apareció en el programa FNU Combat Sports años atrás, pero desafortunadamente el audio es granulado y manchado. Si escuchas atentamente las gemas que contiene nuestra charla superan los puntos difíciles de escuchar.

KNOCKOUT ARTIST UP NEXT FOR HARVEY AT NEF 28

Deja un comentario

Lewiston, Maine (Marzo 8, 2017) – Luchas de Nueva Inglaterra (NEF) presenta su próximo evento de artes marciales mixtas “NEF 28: INVENCIBLE” en sábado, Abril 29, 2017 en el Androscoggin Banco Colisee en Lewiston, Maine. El día de hoy, la promoción de peleas anunció la adición de una pelea profesional de peso pluma a la cartelera. Josh “Enganchar” Harvey (3-0) se reunirá Eric “Dinero” Mendiola (2-1) con un peso de pelea de 145 libras-.

Harvey, the former NEF amateur division lightweight champion, is undefeated to date since making his professional debut last spring. With a solid amateur boxing background, as well as the pedigree of a two-time Maine state wrestling champion, matchmakers have had difficulty in finding opponents willing to step into the cage with him. The Young’s MMA prospect has displayed both devastating knockout power and slick submission skills throughout his career thus far. Más recientemente, Harvey submitted Richie Collingham (3-4) el mes pasado en “NEF 27.”

“'Dinero’ and I are the type of fight that takes the spotlight, and I know it’s one that people will be talking about for a long time,” remarked Harvey on the upcoming fight. “I’m prepared for war in this kill-or-be-killed contest.”

Mendiola, a product of Mohawk Valley MMA in the Utica, New York area, will make his first appearance in the NEF cage on Abril 29, but he is far from a newcomer to the sport of MMA. He had more than twenty amateur fights prior to turning pro in 2015. Mendiola has built a reputation as a knockout artist. After numerous knockout finishes in the amateur ranks, Mendiola put the lights out for his first two pro opponents, both in under a minute. He will look to rebound from his first loss as a pro last fall.

“I’m a different kind of focused for this fight, mental y físicamente,” stated Mendiola when reached for comment. “Harvey looks like a tough kid with a good record, and I’m up for the challenge. I have a bad taste in my mouth from a couple of months ago, and I’m coming to lay it all on the line and showcase all of my skills. Let’s get to it!”

LACEY SE ENFRENTARÁ A BELLATOR VETERAN EN NEF 28

Deja un comentario

 

PARA PUBLICACION INMEDIATA: Lewiston, Maine (Marzo 7, 2017) – Luchas de Nueva Inglaterra (NEF) presenta su próximo evento de artes marciales mixtas “NEF 28: INVENCIBLE” en sábado, Abril 29, 2017 en el Androscoggin Banco Colisee en Lewiston, Maine. El día de hoy, la promoción de peleas anunció la adición de una pelea profesional de peso pluma a la cartelera. Aaron “Implacable” Lacey (4-0) ha firmado a cara Walter “Todo el dia” Smith-Cotito (4-5) con un peso de pelea de 145 libras-.

Aaron Lacey, invicto como profesional, ha ganado siete seguidos volviendo a su carrera amateur. Estaba preparado para competir en “NEF 27” mes pasado, pero la Madre Naturaleza tenía otros planes cuando una tormenta de nieve impidió que su oponente hiciera el viaje a Lewiston desde Florida. El contratiempo ha hecho que Lacey tenga aún más hambre de volver a la acción, pero el destacado de Young en MMA sabe que tiene su prueba más difícil hasta la fecha frente a él en la forma de Cotito..

“Esta va a ser una pelea increíble.,” dijo lacey. “Walter es un oponente habilidoso y peligroso., y él es, de manera realista, una de las personas más peligrosas con las que he luchado hasta la fecha.. Eso está bien conmigo – cuanto más duro es el oponente, cuanto más duro trabajo. Después de lo que pasó en febrero, Me muero por volver a entrar.”

La pelea por Cotito representará una especie de partido de goma con los oponentes de Young. en la primavera de 2013, Cotito se llevó a Ray Wood (8-3) profundo en la tercera ronda antes de Wood, entonces el destacado prospecto de peso pluma de Young, fue capaz de terminar la pelea. Cotito ganaría una medida de venganza contra el gimnasio Bangor cuando sometió a Bruce Boyington (14-10) en “NEF X” mas adelante en ese año. Entre un par de apariciones recientes para la promoción de lucha global Bellator, Cotito anotó una sumisión de segunda ronda de Elias Leland (3-2) en “NEF 25” septiembre pasado.

“Estoy súper emocionado de pelear contra este chico del que todos están hablando.,” exclamó Cotito. “Tiene mucho potencial, siguen diciendo – bueno, esto solo lo hace más emocionante para mí! Nadie ha visto al verdadero Walter Cotito en la jaula todavía. No te pierdas esta pelea porque 'All-Day’ viene por ti!”

JULIA BUDD WINS INAUGURAL WOMEN’S FEATHERWEIGHT TITLE AT BELLATOR 174 — MARLOES COENEN CALLS IT A CAREER

Deja un comentario

 

Julia Budd (10-2) derrotado Marloes Coenen (23-8) por TKO (golpes) en 2:42 de la cuarta ronda

 

Citas: “I have dreamt about this moment forever. Cuando yo era 21 and first started kickboxing, I dreamt about being a champion and I didn’t make it, I lost.” Budd said. “Así, this is my dream come true. The moment I signed with Bellator, I saw all the champions up there on the banners and I said to myself that i want to be up there with them some day. Now it feels like everything has come together.”

“Theres only one message that I want to give out to all the fighters out there and that’s please listen to your body. I’m very proud of all the women in MMA and I’m very grateful for Bellator,” Coenen said. “This company picked me up when I was in a dark place and Scott Coker has given me so many opportunities throughout my career. Bellator MMA will always be my home.”

Fernando González (26-14) derrotado Brandon Girtz (14-6) por decisión unánime (29-28, 29-27, 30-26)

 

Citar: “Everything I thought was going to happen esta noche, sucedió. Every time he was going to go for a take down, I wanted to make him pay for it.” González dijo. “I had to keep him busy and make him scramble. My plan was to box with him and then keep him away with the leg kicks. I wanted to make him work and get him tired and it proved to be effective in the third round. My next fight, Quiero Andrey Koreshkov. He is one of the best and Bellator’s former champion. I think I will win that fight, which will put me right in line with Douglas Lima siguiente.”

Justin Wren (13-2) derrotado Roman Pizzolato (8-9) a través de la sumisión (triángulo de brazo) en 2:35 de la primera ronda

 

Citar: “I’m so grateful for Bellator and Spike to be able to come out here, do what I love and perform. Pero, Para mí, it’s about so much more than the competition, it’s all about knocking some dude out, so that we can knock out the water crisis with my team out there in the Congo,” Wren said. “They are so incredible. I just train them and put the tools in their hands. They are much better fighters than I ever could be in this cage, so I want to be as good as I can, so that I can give them a voice.”

Rafael Lovato Jr.. (5-0) derrotado Charles Hackman (4-5) por TKO en 0:13 de la primera ronda

 

Citar: “I was completely prepared for this fight and had an incredible camp," Lovato Jr. dicho. “I’m just so happy and thankful to be with Bellator now. I’m so excited about my future, so let’s ride this wave.

Cody Pfister (13-6-1) derrotado Jonathan Gary (12-8-2) a través de la sumisión (rear naked choke) en 4:04 de la primera ronda

 

Citar: "Jonathan Gary is a class act, a great guy, and I’m glad that I had the chance to compete against him esta noche. My retirement caught a lot of people by surprise," Pfister said. “I’m going to take time off to focus on other aspirations, but who knows, maybe I’ll be back. Bellator is a class company and I’m honored that my last fight will be with them. Scott Coker and Bellator know how to take care of the fighters and I really like what they’ve done with the company.”

“We’ve already sold more tickets for this event than we did when more than 3,000 people watched Paddy win the belt at the Echo last year,” said Cage Warriors president Graham Boylan.

“This show is all set to showcase the very best of Liverpool’s fighting talent, and no city supports their own more passionately than the city of Liverpool.

“This is shaping up to be the biggest show we’ve ever done, and I’m expecting a special atmosphere in the Echo Arena on April 1.”
