Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card.Carl Langston (0-5) is geskeduleer om te voldoen aanAaron “Short Fuse” Hughes(0-0) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 145 pond.

Carl Langston comes into the fight looking for the first win that has eluded him thus far in his professional career. Last month, Langston took on Jacob Deppmeyer (1-0) in Portland, Maine at “NEF 42,” losing via first-round technical knockout. It was his first fight back with the promotion since losing his pro debut in April 2018. Langston, a lifelong practitioner of Taekwondo, currently represents Young’s MMA based in nearby Bangor, Maine.

“It’s been hard getting fights altogether, but even more so in my home state,” noted Langston.  “So, with this last lost I didn’t think I was going to get another fight for a bit. I got in my own head and said I wanted to stop fighting for a bit, but when I got the call three weeks after the loss, I couldn’t say no. This is something I need, back-to-back fights. I just have to show up like I show up in the gym and I’ll get my hand raised without a doubt.”

Aaron Hughes will make both his professional and promotional debuts with NEF. He has had a very active amateur career since his debut in 2015, opstel van 'n rekord van 4-6 while competing on fight cards in his home state of Massachusetts.

“I’m really excited to take the trip to Maine to make my professional debut,” said Hughes when reached for comment.  “My opponent is skilled, but I’m coming to put on a show, and he’s just a man in the way of my dreams to the UFC. Thank you to NEF for having me out.”

OMGEWINGSGEveg SAL 'N REMATCH BY NEF KRY 43 IN ORONO

Skryf 'n opmerking

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Orono, Maine (Februarie 28, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) bied die volgende gemengde-vechtkunsten aan (Plaasmoorde) byeenkoms in die Collins Centre for the Arts op die Universiteit van Maine se vlagskip Orono-kampus. Die geleentheid, getiteld “NEF 43: Rampage,”Vind Saterdag plaas, April 18, 2020, met 'n kloktyd van 7 pm EDT. Vroeër vandag, die strydpromosie het die toevoeging van 'n amateurvlieggewigstryd op die kaart aangekondig. Caleb “Dr.. Feelgood ”Austin (4-0) sal in die gesig staar James Ploss (1-2) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 125 pond.

Die stryd is 'n herkansing van die eerste stryd tussen Austin en Ploss wat drie jaar tevore in April plaasgevind het 2017 by “NEF 28.” Austin is as die wenner van die eerste wedstryd aangewys, maar nie sonder omstredenheid nie. Sekondes in die eerste ronde, Ploss het 'n stywe guillotine-verstikking op Austin aangebring. Austin tik uit, maar die skeidsregter was buite posisie om die kraan te sien. Ploss het Austin uit die ruim vrygelaat, dink hy het die stryd gewen. Die skeidsregter, tot Ploss se verbystering, het die geveg beveel om voort te gaan. Terwyl Ploss probeer het om die situasie te verstaan, Austin het hom van stryk gebring en die stryd oomblikke later met tegniese uitklophou afgesluit.

In die dae daarna, baie was kritiek op Austin op sosiale media. Dit lyk asof die saak na 'n paar dae dood is, net om einde verlede jaar weer op die voorgrond te bring toe die voormalige UFC- en WEC-ster Mike Brown (26-9) het die clip op Twitter gedeel as 'n voorbeeld van 'baklei totdat die skeidsregter vir jou sê om op te hou.' Skielik, die geveg het wêreldwyd aandag gekry van groot aanlyn nuusbronne soosBloedige elmboog, MMA Junkie, Die Atletiek, enDie Underground.

Die eerste geveg met Ploss was Caleb Austin se amateur-MMA-debuut. Hy was toe 18 jaar oud en nog steeds senior aan die Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Austin was 'n opvallende stoeier op hoërskool, opstel van 'n rekord van 208-11 meer as vier jaar en die verowering van staatstitels op 126 pond sy junior en senior jaar. Hy is aangewys as die 2017 “Stoeier van die Jaar” deur die Lewiston Sun Journal. Na die gradeplegtigheid, Austin sit sy stoeiloopbaan voort aan die Universiteit van Suid-Maine, maar hy neem die volgende twee jaar af van die MMA-kompetisie. Hy het verlede somer teruggekeer en het drie gevegte agtereenvolgens gewen sedert hy sy terugkeer gemaak het. Austin verteenwoordig tans die Brasiliaanse Jiu-Jitsu in Sentraal-Maine (CMBJJ) in Lewiston, Maine.

'Ek is opgewonde om uiteindelik weer met James te kan veg om 'n mate van sluiting te kry,”Het Austin van die herkansing met Ploss gesê. 'My MMA-debuut spook by my sedert dit amper drie jaar gelede gebeur het. Ek is James en sy span dankbaar dat hulle my die geleentheid gegee het om weer saam met hom daar in te kom. Ek wou dit al lank hê en ek belowe om die oomblik optimaal te benut. As ek hierdie keer die hok verlaat, dit sal sonder twyfel of kontroversie wees — dit sal definitief eindig. ”

James Ploss het nog twee keer in die stryd getree 2017 en het sedertdien nog nie deelgeneem nie. Hy is 'n lid van Greg Williams se Team Kaze in Lancaster, New Hampshire. Soos Austin, Ploss sal op soek wees na afsluiting van die uitslag van hul eerste ontmoeting.

'Ek is dankbaar vir 'n herkansing met Caleb,”Het Ploss gesê. 'Nadenke, Ek het die vraag nagedink, ‘Is ek beter as Kaleb, of is hy beter as ek?'Dit is die perfekte kans om uit te vind - 'n tweede kans vir ons albei om alles te gee en te sien wie bo uitkom en die ondersteuners gee, MMA-gemeenskap, en albei van ons die rematch wat ons almal wil hê! 18 April, ons toets albei onsself. ”

He has a great wrestling base, and he has already beat me once. I am a different animal now, al. I am here to pick back up where I left off. I’m back and I’m here to make a statement.”

Steve Desjardins is a longtime veteran of the New England MMA scene with an amateur career stretching back to 2011.

He went on a three-fight win-streak in 2019, finishing all three of his opponents in the process.

That fight took place within the 155-pound lightweight division. Grimard feels the ten-pound drop to featherweight will further benefit his comfort level in the cage. He represents Nostos MMA of Somersworth, New Hampshire, waar hy onder die UFC-veteraan en die voormalige NEF Professionele liggewigkampioen Devin Powell oefen (10-4).

“I’m excited for this opportunity NEF has given me to fight a very game opponent in April,” said Grimard.  “I am stepping in the cage more comfortable and prepared this time at a weight class I belong.

Lear finished his amateur career in 2019 met 'n rekord van 6-2-1 and an NEF Amateur Bantamweight Title to his credit. He entered the professional ranks last April in Portland, Maine, losing his debut to Bryant Bullock (2-1) via second-round submission.

“I’m very excited to come to Maine and fight for NEF against a game opponent in Fred Lear,” stated Rine when reached for comment.  “I’m ready to test myself in a new promotion in a new state. Time for a fresh start and a new beginning.”

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Orono, Maine (Februarie 19, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) bied die volgende gemengde-vechtkunsten aan (Plaasmoorde) by die Collins Centre for the Arts op die vlagskip Orono-kampus van die Universiteit van Maine. Die gebeurtenis, getiteld “NEF 43: Rampage,”Vind Saterdag plaas, April 18, 2020, met 'n kloktyd van 7 pm EDT.Zac “Rocky” Richard(6-2-1) is beplan om die NEF amateur liggewigtitel daardie aand teen die uitdaging vanDevin Corson(3-1).  Hulle sal aan die liggewigkampioenskapsgrens van 155 pond in 'n wedstryd vir vyf rondes van drie minute.

Richard het die destydse vakante kampioenskap in November verlede jaar in Portland gewen, Maine met 'n eenparige besluit oorwinning oor die "Magic" Mike Murray (3-2).  Hy is nie vreemd aan titels nie, nadat hy in 2015 'n stoei in Maine State vir die Hoërskool Massabesic in Waterboro gewen het. Die oorwinning was 'n geweldige tweede jaar in die kooi vir Richard as die opvolger van sy 2018 “Rookie of the Year” -seisoen. Die laaste keer dat Richard op die verhoog van die Collins Center baklei het, in September 2019, hy het 'n kwaai uitklophou van Erik Tainter behaal (0-2).  Die slam het in die loop van sy jong loopbaan 'n handtekening vir Richard geword. Hy is 'n produk van Nostos MMA van Somersworth, New Hampshire, waar hy onder die UFC-veteraan en die voormalige NEF Professionele liggewigkampioen Devin Powell oefen (10-4).

'Devin kan sê wat hy wil oor my titel op die regte tyd,'' Sê Richard. 'Hy het aangebied. Hy het dit. Ongelukkig vir hom, hy het die mees gemotiveerde Zac wat nog ooit was. Ek voorspel hierdie stryd, al, om 'n wonderlike een te wees. ”

Gepraat van slams, daar is miskien geen atleet wat ooit meer hoogtepunte in die NEF-hok gelewer het as die uitdager Devin Corson nie. Soos Richard, Corson bring 'n sterk stoeibasis saam met hom na die MMA-wedstryd, nadat hy 'n opvallende deelnemer aan die Foxcroft Academy in Dover-Foxcroft op die matte was, Maine. Corson ry tans met 'n tweestryd met 'n eenparige oorwinning oor albei Jacob Deppmeyer (nou 1-0 as 'n pro) en Taylor Bartlett (2-3-1) in 2019. Hy verteenwoordig die Outlet gebaseer in Dexter, Maine.

'Ek dink nie veel aan Zac nie, behalwe dat hy in my pad is,”Het Corson gesê. 'Hy is die man wat ek moet verslaan om die reg te kry 155 gordel. Na alles word gesê en gedoen, Ek sal die een wees met my hand opgelig. ”

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.
