Dit was NEF se debuut op die eeu-oue lokaal, en die geleentheid het die eerbiedwaardige gevegspromosie se negende seisoen van MMA-kompetisie geopen.

In die belangrikste gebeurtenis van die aand, UFC veteraanManny "Die Bermudez-driehoek" Bermudez(15-2) voorgelêBruce "Pretty Boy" Boyington (19-12) met 'n guillotine verstikking in die eerste ronde.

Erickson, wat beide die Brasiliaanse Jiu-Jitsu in Central Maine en Recon Fitness verteenwoordig, hou 'n briljante jiu-jitsu-kliniek aan wat nog jare lank onthou sal word. Vasgevang teen die hok deur Harvey vroeg in die eerste ronde, Erickson het die wag getrek en deur 'n reeks voorleggings oorgegaan voordat hy uiteindelik met 'n armstang begin het om die uitspanning te dwing, die Portland-skare in 'n absolute waansin te stuur.

In 'n wilde swaargewig slakfees wat ook op die professionele gedeelte van die kaart plaasgevind het, Ras “Rasquatch” Hylton (5-3) neergewerpBrad Lee(0-1) via tegniese uitklophou in die tweede ronde. Na 'n paar minute van mekaar voel, die paar het in die slotoomblikke van die eerste ronde in 'n heen-en-weer-klopstoker gewissel. 'N Bietjie meer as 'n minuut in die tweede ronde, die skeidsregter het die aksie tot stilstand gebring ná verskeie onbeantwoorde stakings van die 6'6 ”Hylton.

Op 58-jarige ouderdom, Carr het 'n eenparige beslissende oorwinning oor die 23-jarige Austin Hamilton behaal (0-2) in 'n slaggewig amateurgeveg.

THE MULE TRAIN ROLLS INTO MERRILL AUDITORIUM IN PORTLAND ON FEBRUARY 8

Skryf 'n opmerking

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Portland, Maine (Desember 20, 2019) - New England Fights (NEF) sal sy volgende gemengde vegkuns hou (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis, “NEF 42: Simfonie van vernietiging,” Saterdag, Februarie 8, 2020, by Merrill Auditorium in Portland. Vroeër vandag, NEF announced the addition of an amateur catchweight bout to the card.Nate “The Mule” White(4-0) sal voldoenBrian Cosco (5-8) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 158 pond.

2019 could very well be termed the “Year of the Mule” in hindsight. The MAGA-hat-wearing Nate White was a perfect 4-0 this past year, finishing all four of his opponents decisively. White has become known for stepping in at the last minute to save fights. In September, on just a few days’ notice, White took a fight with Ryan Savage (0-2).  Just hours before that fight, White was tased and pepper-sprayed as part of his National Guard training. He would go on to defeat Savage that evening. Last month, White was victorious over Austin Hamilton (0-1) at “NEF 41.” During his post-fight interview, White famously uttered the phrase “(Jeffrey) Epstein didn’t kill himself” before walking away from the microphone. White represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) van Lewiston, Maine. He is a nominee for “Rookie of the Year” in NEF for 2019.

“Brian comes into this bout with a lot of fight maturity and with a lot of maturity period—the dude is literally more than double my age,” said White.  “He’s got the edge in experience, but I’ve got the good looks on my side in this one. The Mule Train doesn’t slow down for anyone—especially not for Brian Cosco. I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but he’s going to find out what hardworking, unskilled labor feels like on February 8th. God Bless the USA, and God Bless our President to reelection in 2020, the Honorable Donald J. Trump.”

Brian Cosco is a longtime veteran of the New England cage wars having begun his amateur career in 2011. Like White, he is undefeated in the NEF cage. Cosco defeated Garry Carr (2-1) by doctor stoppage last April at “NEF 38.” He returned at “NEF 41” in November to submit Clifford Redman (0-11) in the first round. Cosco’s Von Flue choke on Redman is a nominee for “Submission of the Year” in the NEF 2019 Year-End Awards. He currently represents Redline Fight Sports based in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

“I’m excited to come back up to Maine and fight for NEF again where I’ll be fighting a hometown guy with an undefeated record—and that provides some extra motivation for me,” said Cosco.  “Nate’s young and has the potential to do big things in MMA, but timing is everything in the fight game and this is just a bad time to fight me. 2020 is going to be my year and it starts February 8th.”

New England Fights’ volgende geleentheid vir gemengde vegkuns, “NEF 42: Simfonie van vernietiging,” vind Saterdag plaas, Februarie 8, 2020, by Merrill Auditorium in Portland, Maine. Kaartjies is te koop nou opwww.PortTix.com.

NATE WHITE STEPS IN AT LAST MINUTE TO SAVE LIGHTWEIGHT FIGHT AT NEF 40

Skryf 'n opmerking

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Orono, Maine (September 3, 2019) - New England Fights (NEF) will debut in Orono this Saturday, September 7, 2019 at the Collins Center for the Arts with the promotion’s next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 40: School of Hard Knocks.” Vroeër vandag, NEF announced the addition of an amateur lightweight fight to the card. Nate “The Mule” White (2-0) returns to the cage to face Ryan Savage (0-1) op 'n stryd gewig van 155-pond.

Undefeated Nate White stepped up on just a few days’ notice after Savage’s original opponent, Andrew Kamakas, could not gain medical clearance to fight. The 19-year-old Rumford, Maine native is on a roll this year and making a play for the “Rookie of the Year” nod from NEF fans. So far, White has needed just over a combined four minutes to down his first two opponents. In April, he forced a first-round stoppage against Clifford Redman at “NEF 38” when Redman suffered an injury less than a minute into the fight. White followed that victory up with a technical knockout of Justin Kangas at “NEF 39” in June. White, a member of the Maine Army National Guard, will be traveling straight from being tazed and peppered sprayed only hours before his scheduled competition with Savage on Saturday night, as part of his Guard OC and tazer qualification training.

“This is a busy week in my life,” said White. “I’m in Texas right now for a job interview and will be flying back on Wednesday to head off to drill weekend with the Guard before my fight on Saturday night, but life is all about seizing opportunities when they become available. I’m excited for the chance to test myself against Ryan. I’ve heard that he is a good guy and I know he trains hard, so I’m excited to see how my skills match-up against him.”

Ryan Savage, a fellow active serviceman with the Air Guard, will be looking for the first win of his amateur MMA career this Saturday night in Orono. At “NEF 38” last April, Savage lost via submission to Connecticut’s Arii Fernandez in the first round of Savage’s debut. He currently represents First Class MMA of Brunswick, Maine.

“I’m very fortunate to be given another chance to showcase my true potential,” said Savage. “My first MMA fight opened my eyes to the importance of being an all around fighter, and was a very humbling experience. Nate has been on a roll these last two cards, and I know is training hard to continue his undefeated streak. Nate has great skill, but I’m ready to put that to the test and show everyone I’m here to stay.”

“Fight lore is full of legendary tales of guys stepping-up on last-minute notice to save bouts—and this is another example of that,” said Matt Peterson, NEF Matchmaker and co-owner. “Two active servicemen from respected gyms in the state—one a boxer and the other a wrestler—agreeing to an MMA fight on short notice is just one more added attraction to the stacked card that we have set to wow UMaine with this weekend. I’ve never been more excited to go back to school.”

New England Fights’ volgende geleentheid vir gemengde vegkuns, “NEF 40: SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS,” will take place this Saturday, September 7, 2019 at the Collins Center for the Arts at the University of Maine as the promotion debuts in Orono, Maine. Doors will open at 6 pm and first fight will take to the cage at 7 pm. Tickets are on sale now atwww.collinscenterforthearts.com.
