2016 FIGHTER OF THE YEAR LOOKS TO CARRY MOMENTUM INTO NEW YEAR

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (December 21, 2016) Dagaaladu waxa Caashaq England (NEF) ku noqo Bangiga Androscoggin Bank February 11, 2017 iyada oo ay dhacdo soo socota isku-dhafan-fanka-farshaxan dhacdo, “NEF 27: QIIMAHA.” Goor hore oo maanta, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight fight to the card. Aaron “Hagar” Lacey (4-0) qaadan on doonaa Chris “Game Bred” Jacobs (1-0) at miisaanka dagaalka ee 145-pounds a.

 

Voted “Fighter Sanadka” earlier this week by NEF fans, it would take a Herculean effort to argue that 2016 was not Aaron Lacey’s year. He made his professional debut in April at “NEF 22” defeating veteran Derek Shorey (4-8) and remained undefeated the rest of the year. Including his amateur career, Lacey is riding a seven-fight win streak. He has not lost a fight since the spring of 2014 (his only loss) – close to three years ago.

 

Dhowaan, Lacey struck down seasoned pro Taylor Trahan (6-7) with a vicious liver kick that made the entire crowd at the Colisee cringe. A win over Jacobs on February 11 would move Lacey that much closer to signing a contract with a major, national MMA promotion – a fate long predicted by many insiders for the product of Bangor’s Young’s MMA gym.

 

“I’m looking forward to 2017,” said Lacey when reached for comment. “2016 was a big year for me and I am looking forward to carrying that momentum into the new year on Febraayo 11-keedii. Chris Jacobs is a seasoned opponent who is making the trip up from Florida, so he will be prepared. I live in the gym and have been making huge gains, iyo 2017 will be the year I get to showcase those gains!”

 

Jacobs is based out of DeLand, Florida. “NEF 27” will see him make his first trip to compete in Maine, but Jacobs is no stranger to the MMA cage. He put together an impressive record of 8-3 hiwaayad u yahay, including capturing a regional title on a fight card in nearby Daytona Beach. Jacobs won his pro debut earlier this year in Tampa. He is looking forward to facing tough competition in the form of Lacey.

 

“I must give thanks and praise to the most high for putting me in this position to fight in Maine,” Saciid Jacobs. “It’s a blessing. It’s an honor to fight someone of a high caliber and stature like Aaron Lacey. I look forward to coming up there and competing with a top level athlete.”

BROTHER AND SISTER MMA FIGHTERS RETURN TO CAGE AT NEF 27

Leave a comment

 

Lewiston, Maine (December 15, 2016) Dagaaladu waxa Caashaq England (NEF) ku noqo Bangiga Androscoggin Bank February 11, 2017 iyada oo ay dhacdo soo socota isku-dhafan-fanka-farshaxan dhacdo, “NEF 27: QIIMAHA.” Goor hore oo maanta, the fight promotion announced the addition of two amateur bouts to the card. Ryan Burgess (2-1) tartami doona Justin Witham (2-4) in a flyweight contest while his sister, Nicole Burgess (0-1), qaadanaysaa Sarah Ziehm (0-0) in the strawweight division.

 

This will not be the first time the Burgess siblings have competed on an NEF card together. Last June at “NEF 24,” Ryan and Nicole would taste defeat at the hands of Dustin Veinott (5-4) and Alex Walker (2-1), siday u kala horreeyaan. They will look to redeem themselves on February 11.

 

“I’m super excited to get my sister back in the cage on the same card as me,” said Ryan Burgess. “She has always been a competitor and being able to train side by side with her throughout this fight camp will help me as much as it will help her. She is tough as nails and everything I will be helping her learn over the next two months will just reinforce the knowledge I have already obtained from my coaches. Her debut was against a seasoned fighter in Alex Walker and I can’t wait to see her take home her first win on Febraayo 11-keedii.”

 

Ryan and Nicole are based out of the Berserkers MMA camp in Rumford, Maine. They grew up in neighboring Mexico, Maine. Ryan was a three-time state wrestling champion out of Mountain Valley High School, while Nicole, a multi-sport athlete, also wrestled and excelled in field hockey. She has continued her field hockey career at Plymouth State University. Ryan captured the NEF MMA Flyweight Title last year. Both siblings are confident that Nicole can replicate his success in the cage.

 

“Training with my brother is both a challenge and a blessing,” said Nicole. “We’ll get on each other’s nerves, but at the end of the day we want each other to succeed. More, he’s a good partner to have on your team.”

 

Ryan’s bout at “NEF 27” will be a rematch. In their first meeting, he defeated Justin Witham via unanimous decision at “NEF 18” in the summer of 2015.

 

“Rematching Witham will be a perfect opportunity for me to showcase the huge strides I have made over the last year and a half since the beginning of my MMA career. He is a really tough dude and I know he will show up for a war, but I have made huge improvements in all aspects of my game since adding Jason Bell to my corner and I will be the one to decide the outcome of this fight. I will control the pace of the fight and whether I want to take it to him on the feet or take him down and submit him, there is nothing he will be able to do to stop me. This fight will not go three rounds.”

 

Justin Witham is a member of the Shatterproof Combat Club. Since his loss to Burgess, Witham has gone 2-1 including an impressive submission win over Conner Murphy (1-1) in uu kulan ugu dambeeyey. Witham is certain that he can defeat Burgess in the rematch.

 

“I’ve been wanting this fight since the second our first fight was over,” exclaimed Witham. “I can and will win!”

 

As for Nicole, she will be taking on the debuting Sarah Ziehm. Ziehm is a member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) based in nearby Auburn, Maine.

 

“I’m looking forward to getting back into the cage,” said Nicole. “I think my first fight was a good learning experience and I got out all my nerves that I didn’t expect to have. Hadda, it’s my turn to come out with a ‘W’ for my team.”

“I can’t wait to get back to work in the NEF cage,” exclaimed Walker. “2017 is going to be a good year and I am looking forward to entertaining the great fans in Maine! I can’t think of a better way to start the year. The two times I have fought in Maine, they were both FOTN, looking to Threepeat!”

 

Katie Baker, an 18-year-old from Gardiner, Maine, might be new to the NEF cage, but she is well-known within martial arts circles in the Pine Tree State. Baker began training in combat sports at the age of five. She won the Isshinryu World Karate Championship in 2009 iyo 2013, and has been a practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for seven years, regularly taking part in local tournaments.

REGISTERED NURSES TO THROW DOWN AT NEF 27

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (December 13, 2016) Dagaaladu waxa Caashaq England (NEF) ku noqo Bangiga Androscoggin Bank February 11, 2017 iyada oo ay dhacdo soo socota isku-dhafan-fanka-farshaxan dhacdo, “NEF 27: QIIMAHA.” Goor hore oo maanta, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bout to the card. Angela Young (1-2) returns to the NEF cage to take on Christine Brothwell (0-2) in the flyweight division.

 

Young, the wife of Young’s MMA founder and head coach Chris Young, made her MMA debut in the fall of 2015. Somehow finding the time to fight while being a fulltime mother and working overnight as a registered nurse, Young would compete three times in just an eight-month period. Ku guuleysto iyo haddii, she has been known to put on “fight of the night” performances, including Young’s last bout with Kylie O’Hearn (1-2) at “NEF 23” in Hyannis, Massachusetts this past May.

 

“I’ve taken some time off from the cage since my last fight, but I’ve never stopped training,” said Young when reached for comment. “Young’s is growing, and team training has been elevated to a higher standard because of the new talent. I’m looking forward to stepping back in the NEF cage in February. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while, and you better believe I’m coming for a win.”

 

Like her opponent, Brothwell is a registered nurse. She is based in New Hampshire and is a member of team Bucket Brigade in Nashua. While she will be making her NEF debut on February 11, Brothwell is no stranger to the MMA cage. She has competed twice previously and she promises a memorable fight for both Young and the fans in Lewiston.

 

“I fully respect my opponent, her abilities and training, but I train with the best in New England,” stated Brothwell. “Ku guuleysto iyo haddii, you will always remember the time you fought me. This won’t just be the best female fight on the card, it’s going to be fight of the night.”

HEAVYWEIGHTS OO U DIYAAR GALAY DAGAALKA NEF 27

Leave a comment

 

Lewiston, Maine (December 7, 2016) Dagaaladu waxa Caashaq England (NEF) ku noqo Bangiga Androscoggin Bank February 11, 2017 iyada oo ay dhacdo soo socota isku-dhafan-fanka-farshaxan dhacdo, “NEF 27: QIIMAHA.” Goor hore oo maanta, dhiirrigelinta dagaalka ayaa ku dhawaaqday ku darista tartan xirfadeed kaarka. Ras “Rasquatch” Hylton (0-0) ka dhigi doonaa inuu kulankiisii ​​ugu horeeyay xirfadle ka dhanka ah Mike “Shaarbo ayaa” Hansen (5-4) ee horyaalka feerka.

 

Hylton ee hadda-halyeeyga ah ee ku soo kordhay heerarka miisaanka culus ee NEF waa mid ka mid ah sheekooyinka waaweyn ee 2016. 6’6″ and towering over the top of the MMA cage, Hylton cuts an imposing figure. The only thing more impressive than Hylton’s size and appearance might be his athletic abilities. A prolific striker, Hylton finished all three of his opponents this year by either knockout or technical knockout.

 

“Rasquatch,” or as some fans call him “The Jamaican Shamrock,” really began to raise eyebrows with a highlight-reel head kick knockout of Matt Glover (1-1) last spring. Markaas, bishii la soo dhaafay ee “NEF 26,” Hylton pounded an extremely tough Kevin Smith (3-3) to a bloody pulp. It was immediately after that dominant performance that Hylton’s coaches at First Class MMA and Dragon Fire Martial Arts felt the time was right for him to make the jump to the pro ranks.

 

“Aad ayaan ugu faraxsanahay inaan la dagaallamayo nin darajo weyn leh Mike Hansen qoyskeyga iyo asxaabteyda hortooda,” ayuu yidhi Hylton. “Maaddaama uu yahay dagaalyahankii ugu horreeyay ee xirfad yaqaan ah ee ka soo baxa labada Farshaxanka Dab-damiska iyo Fasalka Koowaad ee MMA, iyo tilmaamaha Shihan Andy Campbell, John “Darajada koowaad” Raio iyo kooxdayda, waxaan isku diyaarinaynaa inaan dagaal galo maxaa yeelay taasi waa waxa Mike had iyo jeer keensado qafiska.”

 

Horyaalka legdanka culus ee hore ee gobolka Maine oo ka baxay Dugsiga Sare ee Mountain Valley, Mike Hansen waligiis kama fogaan inuu la dagaallamo qof isaga ka weyn. Dhab ahaantii, Hansen, kaasoo sidoo kale ku tartama qaybaha fudud-culeyska iyo miisaanka dhexe, waxay ku heshay sumcad ahaan xoogaa a “dilaa weyn.”

 

Horaantii sanadkaan, Hansen wuxuu gudbiyay Jesse Baughman oo aad uga weyn (0-2) wareegii koowaad ee “NEF 22.” Wuxuu raacay waxqabadkaas cajiibka ah isaga oo ku sigtay inuu tuuro Dagaalo aad u ballaadhan oo Brendan ah (1-1) gacanta midig at “NEF 23.” Deyrtan Hansen wuxuu ku dhowaad nus cag u dhiibtey Matt Andrikut (2-1) oo wuxuu gudbiyey kii ka weynaa ee wareegii koowaad. Illeen, Faa'iidada baaxadda leh ee Hylton ayaa kaalin yar ka ciyaari doonta natiijada dagaalkan haddii Hansen wax ka yiraahdo.

 

“Super faraxsan, waayo, dagaalka this waxaan ahay,” ayuu yiri Hansen. “Waxaan jecelahay inaan ka mid noqdo kuwan 'dagaallada waaweyn'.’ Waan ogahay Ras inuu leeyahay xero weyn gadaashiisa wuuna imaan doonaa 100% diyaariyey. Waxaan ka rajeynayaa wax ka yar Raio, laakiin waxaan dareemayaa waayo-aragnimadayda iyo degenaashaha qafiska inay noqon doonaan hantidayda ugu fiican taasna maahan wax uu ku tababaran karo in 10 toddobaadyo. Febraayo 11-keedii dagaal baan galidoonaa, markaa intaas uun ka filo.”

Henry Clark (3-2) ayaa lagu wadaa in ay la kulmaan Alex Clark (3-2) at catchweight ka mid ah 140-pounds.

 

Henry Clark fights out of the Choi Institute in Portland, Maine. With wins over the likes of Sheldon Bang (2-2) and Fred Lear (4-2), Henry earned a shot at the NEF Amateur Bantamweight Title earlier this year. The finish of the bout was mired in controversy as Henry contended that the referee stoppage resulting in a technical knockout victory for Johnny Crafts (4-1) was actually the result of an illegal eye poke suffered by Clark.

 

“I’m coming into to this fight with an iron will and a desire for violence,” declared Henry Clark. “After my last loss, I can guarantee it will not go that way for me again. I’m the best 135-pounder in Maine, and I’m here to prove that. After I take what I want from Alex, there’s only one place for me to go and that’s a championship fight. I look forward to facing the challenges Alex will bring.”

 

Alex Clark is a member of Young’s MMA based in Bangor, Maine. He recently returned to the NEF cage after an extended leave of nearly three years from active competition. Ugu “NEF 26” bishii la soo dhaafay, Alex lost a hard-fought battle against Florida’s Shawn Lunghi (2-0). He will be looking to bounce back from that loss at “NEF 27,” and he promises an exciting contest for fight fans.

 

“I’m super excited about this fight,” said Alex Clark. “Henry is a tough guy with absolutely no quit in him. He’s not afraid to stand and exchange and has good BJJ to back it up. This is an awesome matchup between a couple of strong willed warriors, but I think my strength and athleticism is going to be the difference. Styles make fights and there’s no doubt that this one will be a crowd pleaser.”

NEF 26 MMA CARD FEATURES WOMEN’S FIGHTS, TITLE FIGHTS, RETURNS, DEBUTS AND MORE

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (October 21, 2016) – Dagaaladu New England (NEF) waxay soo bandhigeysaa dhacdadeeda xigta ee isku-dhafka-fanka, “NEF 26: SUPREMACY,” on Saturday, November 19 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Goor hore oo maanta, NEF executives announced the full fight card for the event which will be the fight promotion’s grand finale for 2016.

 

Haddii ay dhacdo in ugu weyn, “The” Ryan Sanders (10-8) la kulmi doona Jon Lemke (5-6) in a professional lightweight bout. It will be Sanders’ first fight in Lewiston since November 2014. Much has been made of the fact that Sanders and Lemke are former teammates. The bout is considered a “dream match” by Maine fight fans, especially those from the Bangor-area familiar with the rivalry between Sanders’ camp Young’s MMA and Lemke’s camp Team Irish.

 

The co-main event of the evening will feature an interesting “tababare vs. Tababaraha” dagaal. “Shatterproof 2.0” Derek Shorey (4-7), head of the Shatterproof Combat Club, is scheduled to face Ruthless MMA & Boxing founder Josh Parker (4-8) in a professional featherweight contest. Shorey is coming off a big win in Rhode Island earlier this fall, while Parker will be returning to the MMA cage after spending the last three years competing as a boxer.

 

Rounding out the professional portion of the card will be undefeated prospect Aaron “Hagar” Lacey (3-0) iyo Taylor Trahan (6-6) in culeyskooda featherweight. Lacey and Trahan both submitted their respective opponents at “NEF 25” bishii la soo dhaafay. Many local followers of the sport feel that Lacey is just a handful of wins away from getting the call to the major league of the sport. Trahan will be looking to play the role of spoiler while also avenging the loss of his Team Link teammate John Santos (3-5) to Lacey in Bangor this past August.

 

The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a heavyweight title fight between Nick “The Guardian” Gulliver (3-0) iyo Quilt DeCastro (2-2). DeCastro stepped up to the plate to face Gulliver when no other heavyweight in the region would do so. Gulliver has been on a path of destruction, ripping through three opponents in a combined two minutes.

 

Two women’s fights are on tap for “NEF 26.” Jessica “The Black Widow” Borga (2-2) returns from Florida to meet Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Brianne Genschel (0-0). Genschel’s First Class MMA teammate “Hollywood” Hannah Sparrell (1-1) will also be in action against Fernanda Araujo (4-4-2).

 

Jay Jack and Amanda Buckner’s The Academy in Portland, Maine will send two new fighters to the cage at “NEF 26.” Chad Pierce (0-0) will debut against Shatterproof’s Lyman Curtis (0-0), halka Phil Chiasson (0-0) kulmay Rik Seymour (0-0) of 3Ronin Athletics. Both bouts will take place in the 155-pound lightweight division.

HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE IS UP FOR GRABS AT NEF 26

Leave a comment

 

Lewiston, Maine (October 17, 2016) – Dagaaladu New England (NEF) waxay soo bandhigeysaa dhacdadeeda xigta ee isku-dhafka-fanka, “NEF 26: SUPREMACY,” on Saturday, November 19 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Goor hore oo maanta, NEF executives announced the addition of an amateur heavyweight title bout to the fight card. Nick Gulliver (3-0) ayaa lagu wadaa in ay la kulmaan Quilt DeCastro (2-2) to fill the vacant NEF MMA Amateur Heavyweight Championship.

 

Gulliver is a member of John Raio’s First Class MMA based in Brunswick, Maine, as well as the Foundry Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Farmington, Maine. Making his MMA debut in 2015, Gulliver scorched his first two opponents via first-round technical knockout prior to facing Dave Smith (2-1) last spring at “NEF 22.” It took Gulliver a mere 28-seconds to dispatch Smith. In dhammaan, Gulliver’s first three opponents have lasted barely over a combined two minutes in the cage with him. He will be looking to continue that dominance of the NEF amateur heavyweight division on November 19 and claim its top prize.

 

” I would like to thank NEF for the opportunity to fight again,” said Gulliver. “This is the biggest fight of my life. I’m excited to be fighting for the heavyweight title belt on November 19th in front of my family and friends. My goal in this sport was to get a title belt, but something bigger than that was to fight for the belt in front of my father. When I started back in June of last year my coach John Raio told me I would someday fight for the belt. This day has come and now it’s my time to finish what I set out to do.

 

“My father was not able to make my last fight because he was too sick. When I found out about this fight I called my parents and told them I would be fighting for the belt and my dad said he would do everything he could to make it. Sidaas, not only am I looking for a victory, but I’m looking to do it in front of my father.

 

“This fight is also big since my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu coach Brianne Genschel will be fighting alongside me. Brianne has been working so hard for this and she deserves this fight and for her hand to be raised. I’m also excited to have longtime friend and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt Shawn Smith in my corner which is also an honor. I truly want to thank The Foundry and First Class MMA for all the support and dedication they have had with me and my training.

 

“I believe this will be a great fight and I’ll have to show people a side of me they have not been able to see yet and I look forward to that. I greatly respect my opponent for taking this fight and wish him the best of luck. To my fans be ready for the Guardian to come out like you have never seen him before. I appreciate this opportunity and I’ll do my best to put a smile on everyone’s face. I would also like to thank my wife Heather for all the help and support she has given me.”

 

A native of Portugal, Yorgan DeCastro came to the United States with a solid kickboxing background. He began competing in mixed-martial-arts in 2014, quickly rattling off a pair of victories on fight cards in Massachusetts. November 19 will be DeCastro’s debut on Maine soil, and he plans to return home to South Shore Sportfighting (SSSF) with the heavyweight title belt in tow.

 

“I’m excited for the opportunity to showcase my skills in front of a new crowd,” said DeCastro. “I don’t plan on letting the fight go the distance, but I’m ready for whatever he brings to the table. I’ve faced tougher opposition, so I know I’m prepared.”
