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

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (דעצעמבער 21, 2016) -נעוו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on פעברואַר 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 27: RESURGENCE.Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight fight to the card. אהרן “רילענטליס” לאַסעי (4-0) וועט נעמען אויף קריס “Game Bred” דזשאַקאָבס (1-0) בייַ אַ קאַמף וואָג פון 145-פונט.

 

Voted “פייטער פון די יאר” 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 “נעף 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.

 

רובֿ לעצטנס, 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 פעברואַר 11 would move Lacey that much closer to signing a contract with a major, national MMA promotiona 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 February 11th. 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, און 2017 will be the year I get to showcase those gains!”

 

Jacobs is based out of DeLand, פלאָרידאַ. “נעף 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 ווי אַ ליבהאָבער, 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,” האט דזשאַקאָבס. “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

 

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (דעצעמבער 15, 2016) -נעוו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on פעברואַר 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 27: RESURGENCE.Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of two amateur bouts to the card. ריאַן בורגעסס (2-1) וועט שלאַכט דזשאַסטין וויטהאַם (2-4) in a flyweight contest while his sister, Nicole Burgess (0-1), נעמט אויף 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 atNEF 24,Ryan and Nicole would taste defeat at the hands of Dustin Veinott (5-4) and Alex Walker (2-1), ריספּעקטיוולי. They will look to redeem themselves on פעברואַר 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 February 11th.”

 

Ryan and Nicole are based out of the Berserkers MMA camp in Rumford, מיין. They grew up in neighboring Mexico, מיין. 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. מער, he’s a good partner to have on your team.

 

Ryan’s bout at “נעף 27” will be a rematch. In their first meeting, he defeated Justin Witham via unanimous decision atNEF 18in 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) אין זיין רובֿ פריש עקסקורסיע. 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 (קמבדזשדזש) based in nearby Auburn, מיין.

 

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. איצט, it’s my turn to come out with a ‘Wfor my team.

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (דעצעמבער 14, 2016) -נעוו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on פעברואַר 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 27: RESURGENCE.Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bout to the card. אַלעקס וואָקער (2-1) makes her return to Lewiston to take on the debuting Katie Baker (0-0) in a strawweight matchup.

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, מיין, 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 און 2013, and has been a practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for seven years, regularly taking part in local tournaments. פריער דעם יאָר, Baker began competing in amateur boxing.

REGISTERED NURSES TO THROW DOWN AT NEF 27

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (דעצעמבער 13, 2016) -נעוו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on פעברואַר 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 27: RESURGENCE.Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bout to the card. אַנגעלאַ יונגע (1-2) returns to the NEF cage to take on Christine Brothwell (0-2) in the flyweight division.

 

יונג, 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. געווינען אָדער פאַרלירן, she has been known to put onfight of the nightperformances, including Young’s last bout with Kylie O’Hearn (1-2) בייַ “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 פעברואַר 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. “געווינען אָדער פאַרלירן, 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 PREPARE FOR WAR AT NEF 27

 

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (דעצעמבער 7, 2016) -נעוו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on פעברואַר 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 27: RESURGENCE.Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional contest to the card. RasRasquatchHylton (0-0) וועט מאַכן זייַן פאַכמאַן דעבוט קעגן מייק “די מוסטאַטשע” האַנסען (5-4) אין די כעוויווייט אָפּטייל.

 

Hylton’s now-legendary rise through the ranks of the amateur heavyweight division in NEF is one of the major stories of 2016. At 6’6and 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 himThe Jamaican Shamrock,” really began to raise eyebrows with a highlight-reel head kick knockout of Matt Glover (1-1) last spring. דעמאָלט, לעצטע חודש בייַ “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.

 

I am so grateful to be fighting a man of Mike Hansen’s stature in front of my family and friends,” said Hylton. “As the first professional fighter to come out of both Dragon Fire Martial Arts and First Class MMA, and with the instruction of Shihan Andy Campbell, יוחנן “ערשטער קלאַס” Raio and my team, we are preparing for me to go to war because that is what Mike always brings to the cage.

 

A former Maine state heavyweight wrestling champion out of Mountain Valley High School, Mike Hansen has never shied away from taking a fight with someone bigger than him. אין פאַקט, האַנסען, who also competes in the light-heavyweight and middleweight divisions, has gained a reputation as somewhat of agiant killer.

 

פריער דעם יאָר, Hansen submitted a substantially bigger Jesse Baughman (0-2) in the first round atNEF 22.He followed up that impressive performance by nearly knocking out a much larger Brendan Battles (1-1) with a right hand atNEF 23.This fall Hansen gave up nearly half a foot to Matt Andrikut (2-1) and submitted his bigger opponent in the first round. טאַקע, Hylton’s size advantage will play little role in the outcome of this fight should Hansen have anything to say about it.

 

“איך בין סופּער יקסייטאַד פֿאַר דעם קאַמף,” exclaimed Hansen. “I like being part of these ‘super fights.I know Ras has a great camp behind him and he will come 100% prepared. I’ll expect nothing less from Raio, but I feel my experience and composure in the cage will be my best asset and that’s not something that he can train up on אין 10 weeks. February 11th we will go to war, so expect just that.

Henry Clark fights out of the Choi Institute in Portland, מיין. 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, מיין. He recently returned to the NEF cage after an extended leave of nearly three years from active competition. בייַ “NEF 26” לעצטע חודש, Alex lost a hard-fought battle against Florida’s Shawn Lunghi (2-0). He will be looking to bounce back from that loss atNEF 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.

When Richie Collingham steps foot in the NEF cage on פעברואַר 11 it will have been nearly a decade since his last fight.

Lacey and Trahan both submitted their respective opponents atNEF 25” לעצטע חודש. 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.

HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE IS UP FOR GRABS AT NEF 26

 

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (אָקטאָבער 17, 2016) – New ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event, “נעף 26: SUPREMACY,” אויף שבת, נאָוועמבער 19 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Earlier today, NEF executives announced the addition of an amateur heavyweight title bout to the fight card. Nick Gulliver (3-0) איז סקעדזשולד צו פּנים Yorgan 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, מיין, as well as the Foundry Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Farmington, מיין. 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 atNEF 22.It took Gulliver a mere 28-seconds to dispatch Smith. אין אַלע, 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 נאָוועמבער 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. אַזוי, 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. נאָוועמבער 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.
