First Class

Lewiston, Maine (Oktober 7, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Amerika se nommer een plaaslike stryd bevordering, sal sy volgende byeenkoms te hou, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld” op Saterdag, November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. Op die amateur gedeelte van die stryd kaart, John Raio se First Class MMA span van Brunswick, Maine sal nie minder nie as vier deelnemers aan die NEF hok te stuur daardie aand.

 

Nog relatief in sy kinderskoene, Raio se gimnasium het gegroei, beide letterlik en figuurlik, since its inception in 2013. Mees onlangs, die span het in 'n nuwer, larger space at Fort Andross in Brunswick. With his own base in wrestling, Raio het ook onlangs bygevoeg afrigters en klasse in verskillende martial arts dissiplines om die leer van sy studente uit te brei.

 

“Ek het 'n visie toe ek oopgemaak die gimnasium te sorteer 'n Universiteit van gemengde martial arts leer,” Said Ray. “A school that included all of the different components of MMA and fitness so that students could pick and chose classes they were interested in. We are adding another fitness class this month and a yoga class soon. Having the same instructor teach everything can be boring to some and instructors that teach every night can burn out. Sommige skole het een instrukteur wat voel hulle weet stoei, BJJ (Brasiliaanse Jiu Jitsu-), skopboks, karate, judo, ens. goed genoeg om hulle almal te leer op 'n hoë vlak. As jy beperk jou opleiding aan wat een individu weet, you can only learn as much as that one individual is able to relay to you. We have a black belt that teaches BJJ-Tim Fawber, 'n Kempo swart gordel dat stakende -Shawn Tardif leer, n pro bokser wat boks leer- James Carville, en ek was 'n staat kampioen stoeier, Ek geworstel in die kollege vir vier jaar, and I competed in MMA several times. Chris McBean and Katie Baker also teach BJJ. I attend all of our classes. As an instructor and coach, Ek het altyd voortgaan om meer oor die sport te leer.”

 

Raio retired from MMA competition this past June to spend more time with his family and to focus his efforts on developing his students at First Class. He notes the differences between coaching and fighting and the personal sense of satisfaction each provides him.

 

“Hulle is twee heeltemal verskillende diere,"Raio gestel. "Ek het hulle albei lief vir verskillende redes. Ek is lief vir die kompetisie, want ek al my fokus en opleiding in my stryd kan sit. Ek is lief vir afrigting, want ek kan dit alles fokus sit op 'n ander persoon. Ek voel so goed elke keer een van my studente te wen, dit is asof ek was daar veg. Ek voel soos ek plan goed kan spel en weet dat die spel goed genoeg is om goeie matchups as my vegters vordering te vind.”

 

Die bewys is in die poeding, soos hulle sê, when it comes to finding the right matchups for his students. Op “NEF XIX” verlede maand, Raio’s team went undefeated with three big wins. Nick Shea (2-0) het sy tweede MMA bout daardie nag terwyl Hannah Sparrell (1-0) en BJJ swart gordel Rafael Velado (1-0) were victorious in their respective cage debuts. Raio credits cross-training with other gyms and the quality of instruction from First Class coaches for the team’s recent success.

 

“Dit begin met ons familie vriendelike atmosfeer,” Said Ray. “Ons laat kinders en mans en vroue van alle ouderdomme aan al ons klasse by te woon, behalwe sparring. My vrou het Jody 'n groot hulp wees. Ons instrukteurs is uitstekend. Ons is geseënd om talentvolle atlete, stoeiers, stakers en grapplers loop deur ons deure. They all work hard and put in the time. They all work together and want each other to win. They have positive attitudes and treat each other with respect. We are trying to match seven fighters for NEF next February and have 15-20 studente aktief op soek na gevegte in die volgende jaar. Many of our students are here to learn and not compete. All of our students are helpful on giving advice and tips. Ons het ook kruis trein so veel as wat ons kan. Ons het verskeie studente wat lei deur die Foundry BJJ stelsel vir die BJJ en reis op te lei op ons gym vir treffende, wrestling and MMA. Our BJJ coaches are all Foundry BJJ members. Ons probeer om Spar met Team Ierse in Brewer maandelikse en ek lei nog op Choi se (die Choi Instituut Portland, Maine) keer 'n week. Hannah Sparrell gaan Choi se een keer 'n week te.

 

“Toe ek die eerste keer die gym geopen is ek baie gefokus op my eie opleiding en laat die ander studente voor te berei vir hul gevegte as hulle wou. Nou is ek op die top van vegters met verpligte sparring, minimum klasse elke week en verpligte weeg-ins. As jy nie kan voldoen aan die minimum vereistes, jy kan nie veg vir ons gym. Jy kan veg as 'n onafhanklike, of jy kan 'n skool wat goedkeur van julle opleiding wanneer jy voel soos dit te vind. Ons is baie suksesvol, want ek verander die reëls.”

 

Op November 21, First Class MMA spanlid Nick Gulliver (1-0) sal wees in swaargewig optrede teen Gravin Guillen (2-2). Gulliver won his amateur debut last June in the NEF cage over Sonny Spratt (0-2).

 

“Ek is so opgewonde om weer te veg vir 'n groot organisasie soos NEF,” uitgeroep Gulliver. “Dit voel so ongelooflik om my eerste stryd in die voorkant van my familie en vriende te wen by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Junie. Ek baie hard gewerk het vir my eerste stryd, maar ek voel soos ek het 'n baie om te bewys aan myself. Sedert my hand opgewek terug in Junie, Ek is hard aan die oefen met die eerste klas MMA en Die Foundry. My instrukteurs en afrigters is die beste iemand kan vra vir. Ek lei in Farmington, Maine met die Foundry onder Brianne Genschel en Seth Harris. Hulle het so baie tyd sit in my opleiding oor die jare en ek kan hulle nie genoeg bedank. Iemand anders sou ek graag dankie sê vir stoot my sou my groot vriend en instrukteur Shawn Smith wees. Shawn is iemand wat altyd hard opleiding en ek probeer en die trein soos hy doen. Hy stoot almal by die gym om hard te lei. Ek lei ook by First Class MMA met John Raio. John is die rede waarom ek hierdie geleentheid om te veg. John het so 'n wonderlike rolmodel en vriend was om myself en al sy vegters. Almal by beide skole Ek oefen op is amazing en is groot instrukteurs. Ek is so bly ek kry om te veg vir die Foundry en First Class MMA. Ek sien uit daarna om terug in die hok en wys my familie en vriende hoe hard ek gewerk het. Ek wil die beste persoon wat ek kan wees en ek sal dit doen. Ek wil hê my hand nie net vir my, maar vir die mense wat soveel tyd in wat jy sien in die hok. Ek sien daarna uit om die geleentheid om weer te veg vir NEF en wys die ondersteuners wat ek het. Ek belowe ek sal hard oefen en gee dit alles wat ek het om die skare gelukkig maak. Ek kan nie wag om almal te sien op 21 November. Dankie aan my familie en vriende en instrukteurs vir alles.

 

Gulliver extols die deugde van Raio se afrigtingstyl by First Class, aansluit by die sentimente van ander rakende instrukteurs om die behoeftes van studente eerste.

 

“Almal by First Class MMA het dieselfde doel en dit is om te wen,” Gulliver voortgegaan. “But what separates First Class from any other gym is that everyone will sacrifice their needs and goals to help you win. What is so unique about First Class MMA is that any gym can teach you to fight, maar met die eerste klas, John leer jy hart. Kyk net na die laaste First Class prestasie op NEF. Dit was die hart. We’re looking to do the same this time around. John Raio is a class act. Hy is nie net 'n vegter of 'n afrigter, Ek het hom 'n groot vriend het ook oorweeg. John is nie net vir jou sê om iets te doen, hy doen dit met jou. As jy sweet, he’s sweating—and that goes back to my statement that our school has heart. Dit het alles spruit uit ons afrigter, John.”

 

Rafael Velado, wat verlede maand by die seëvierende was “NEF XIX” oor Cory Trial (1-2), sal weer verteenwoordig First Class MMA op November 21 toe hy stappe in die hok teenoorgestelde Ken Dunn (0-2). Like Gulliver, Velado krediete van die sukses van die span afrig Raio.

 

“Twee woorde, John Ray,” said Velado when asked to differentiate First Class from other gyms he has trained at. “Ek het opleiding by verskeie skole oor my martial arts loopbaan, maar nooit het ek in aanraking kom met 'n afrigter wat die loop geloop die pad wat hy doen. Ek hoef nie te vertel wat 'n werkesel hy, and that work ethic is something that has translated well as a coach. It’s no surprise to most that John has been so successful as an MMA coach. Hy dra baie regeer soos leier, vriend, mentor, oefenmaat en duiwel se advokaat wanneer nodig. Hy is in pretty much elke situasie wat jy kan dink in die hok, en dit gee hom geloofwaardigheid. I trust his advice implicitly and you will see his MMA mind at work when I step in the cage to execute his game plan. Some gyms will destroy every new student that walks through the door, maar First Class MMA is die teenoorgestelde van die benadering. Ons verwelkom almal en almal om die trein kom, ongeag hul agtergrond of ambisie om MMA veg.”

 

Velado beloof fans dat hulle baie meer uit hom sal sien in sy komende bout met Dunn by “NEF XX.”

 

“Deel van my wil elke stryd om te gaan as geskryf soos my debuut teen Cory Trial, maar ek is hier vir ervaring sowel. Ek het oor die 1% van wat ek kan doen in my laaste stryd, so hou jou oë oop vir iets wat jy nog nooit gesien in NEF.”

 

Pierce Wiegman (0-0) sal sy amateur MMA debuut op te maak onder die First Class vaandel November 21 in Lewiston teen David Thompson (0-1) of the Shatterproof Combat Club. Unlike Velado, Wiegman, wat sal draai 30 voor die gebeurtenis, has not trained at any other gym prior to joining First Class. Like Velado, egter, Wiegman kan getuig van die rol speel in Raio die sukses van sy studente.

 

“Ek gaan nie om te spekuleer oor die verskil tussen ons opleiding regime versus enige ander gym se, maar wat ek kan sê, is dat elke veg ons vegters gewen het as gevolg van harde werk, dedication and excellent coaching from all of our instructors,” stated Wiegman. “John Raio is werklik 'n eerste klas man. Sy toewyding aan sy familie, sy gym, en sy vegters kom baie onselfsugtig. John is baie ondersteunend vir elkeen wat lei tot sy gym-kids, mans en vroue en sy instrukteurs. "

 

“Ek is net gelukkig om selfs in staat wees om te sê ek gaan om dit te doen,"Wiegman continued. "En dit is alles te danke aan John en Jody Raio en almal van ons instrukteurs by First Class dat ek hierdie geleentheid. Wen of verloor, Ek is dankbaar vir NEF vir die feit dat hierdie gevegte en al die gimnasiums om die staat wat die verskaffing van die platform vir mense om te slaag op die voortsetting van hul droom om 'n suksesvolle vegter.”

 

Bryce Bamford (0-0) gekom het om First Class MMA deur die Foundry BJJ span, which cross-trains with Raio’s students. Bamford is scheduled to make his amateur MMA debut in the heavyweight division at “NEF XX.” Bamford sees many similarities between the two teams.

 

“Waarheid is, Eerste Klas MMA, is regtig soortgelyk aan die Foundry, in die opsig dat almal is daar om te help almal beter. Dit is soos opleiding met vriende, nie net opleiding vennote. That’s what attracted me down there. Steel sharpens steel. Hoe beter is jou opleiding vennote, hoe beter jy is. Johannes gee 100% sy hele span, en dit maak dit moeilik om nie te gee 100% terug, want hy is so betrokke is.”

 

Toe hy gevra is vir 'n voorspelling oor sy stryd op November 21, Bamford gereageer met 'n enkele woord – “Brutaliteit.”

 

“Jy kan verwag almal van ons vegters seker wees, goed voorberei, om hul teenstanders met respek te behandel en om dit alles te laat in die hok,” said Raio in closing. “Hierdie ouens al sit hul tyd in.”

SAL atleet se RETURN 'n slegte teken vir SHOREY BY NEF XX?

Lewiston, Maine (September 30, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Amerika se nommer een plaaslike stryd bevordering, sal sy volgende byeenkoms te hou, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld” op Saterdag, November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. Vroeër vandag, the promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the MMA portion of the fight card. “Onsplinterbaar 2.0” Derek Shorey (3-2) onderteken tot aangesig die terugkerende Damon “Die Omen” Owens (2-0) op 'n stryd gewig van 145-pond.

 

Die stigter en hoof-afrigter van die Pitvastheid Combat Club in Dexter, Maine, Derek Shorey has been impressive in his professional career thus far. All three of his wins have come by first-round stoppage, insluitend Shorey se nederlaag van Tollison Lewis (0-5) vroeër hierdie maand, teen die “NEF XIX.” Wen of verloor, Shorey glo nie in die verhuring van gevegte gaan na die regters’ telkaarte. All fifteen of his combined amateur and pro fights have ended by either knockout, tegniese uitklophou (WIE) of voorlegging.

 

“Ek is dankbaar om deel van hierdie geskiedkundige gebeurtenis wat NEF XX wees,” Said Shorey. “Thank you Matt Peterson and Nick DiSalvo for providing a platform for me to chase this ridiculous dream. Damon is an interesting matchup for me because, stilisties, we are very similar. I’m excited to get in there and mix it up with him and I think the fans will be the biggest winners on this night because they’re in for a hell of a show. Ek het maar net begin om my volle potensiaal te tap en 'n 'W trek’ oor 'n vegter van die beste kamp in Maine, sou 'n baie trotse oomblik vir my.”

 

Voor beweeg na Colorado van Maine in 2013, Damon Owens was on the verge of becoming a breakout star on the regional MMA scene. Owens put together a pair of solid, back-to-back oorwinnings teen John Raio (2-8) en Josh Parker (4-8). Like Shorey, Owens came into his own after leaving the amateur ranks. Also like Shorey, Owens does not believe in letting the judges decide the outcome of his fights. Only one of his bouts out of seven has gone the distance. Owens is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine. Returning home, he has been welcomed back with open arms to his team. Owens has been inactive from competition since moving to Colorado two years ago.

 

“Die toevoeging van hierdie stryd om so 'n monumentale gebeurtenis soos 'NEF XX’ was 'n no-brainer,” gesê NEF mede-eienaar en promotor Nick DiSalvo. “Derek and Damon have both proven themselves to be big finishers. They match up very well and they’re both incredibly exciting fighters. This fight has a very good shot at stealing the show!”

CJ Ewer (4-2) is geskeduleer om gesig Jason “Tweede kans” Lachance (2-2) op 'n stryd gewig van 155-pond.

 

CJ Ewer is a veteran of the United States Air Force security forces. He is a product of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine where he has honed his craft under coach Chris Young. Ewer had one of the most explosive starts to a career in NEF history, winning his first three amateur bouts in a matter of just ten weeks. Earlier this month at “NEF XIX,” Ewer geveg en oorwin 'n baie moeilike Ricky Dexter (3-2). All of Ewer’s fights to date have been in the welterweight and middleweight divisions. The cut to 155-pounds will be a first for Ewer.

 

“Na die lees van Lachance se videos, dit is duidelik dat hy kom in die hok goed voorberei,” opgemerk Ewer van sy teenstander. “Hy is net verloor Jarod Tyler en Dom Cofone, who are both hardcore fighters, and his win against Steve Bang shows that he has a lot of different skills and drive. It’ll be a great opportunity to show how I can compete at 155.”

 

Jason Lachance is 'n lid van MMA Athletix gebaseer in Bath, Maine. He has faced stiff competition in the first several fights of his career, as Ewer opgemerk, so Lachance is accustomed to standing across the cage from the cream of the crop. He is coming off a first round submission victory over David Thompson (0-1) vroeër hierdie maand, teen die “NEF XIX.” Lachance will look to continue his winning ways when he meets Ewer at “NEF XX” op November 21.

 

“Ek is opgewonde vir nog 'n geleentheid om in die hok te kry,” gesê Lachance. “I expect an exciting fight no matter where it ends up. Ewer is tough competition. I am looking forward to this one.”

I’m looking to go 3-0 as a pro against a very high level opponent in Lemke. It’s a heavier fight, against a guy who beat my coach in Bellator. I’m excited to showcase my skills and put on a show for the NEF fans. I’m Lewiston’s own Ken Doll and I plan on bringing everything I have into this fight.

Lewiston, Maine (September 17, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Amerika se nommer een plaaslike stryd bevordering, sal sy volgende byeenkoms te hou, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld” op Saterdag, November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. As announced this past Saterdag nag by “NEF XIX,” Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (3-1) is geskeduleer om die NEF MMA Amateur swaargewigtitel te verdedig teen die aand die uitdaging van Dave Smith (2-0).

 

Leahy het die eerste amateur swaargewig titel by “NEF XVIII” die afgelope Junie toe hy verslaan Smith se Waansinniges MMA spanmaat Ryan Glover (2-1) via 'n eenparige besluit. Leahy’s decision to take time off from competing rather than to defend the title against number-one contender Smith at “NEF XIX” earlier this week was met with criticism from the Berserkers camp. The heavyweight champion splits time training between Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) in Auburn, Maine en Young se MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

“Berserkers wants to say I’m avoiding fights?” gevra om 'n verwoede Leahy. “I’ll clean their whole damn gym out one-by-one. They want to come and try to take my belt from me? Good luck, I’ll see you in November.”

 

Dave Smith het sy debuut MMA die afgelope lente op “NEF Sewentien” in Lewiston. That night, verslaan het hy Sonny Spratt (0-2) deur die eerste ronde tegniese uitklophou (WIE). He followed up that victory with another win at “NEF XVIII” in Junie. Hierdie keer, dit was Gravin Guillen (2-4) who fell to Smith in the first round by submission. Smith is confident that he will take the heavyweight title from Leahy on November 21 in Lewiston.

 

“Eerste, Ek wil graag almal betrokke dank in die maak van hierdie stryd gebeur,” sê Smith. “Ek is seker dit was nie maklik om te kry Billy om te pleeg vir November, he wouldn’t do it for September. I respect anyone who gets in the cage, insluitend mnr. Leahy. I really hope he isn’t expecting a win. Ek sê direk aan Billy–kry gereed en bring my gordel.”

 

New England Fights’ volgende byeenkoms, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld,” vind plaas op November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will mark the first time in Maine history a mixed-martial-arts (Plaasmoorde) event and a professional boxing event have taken place together on the same show.

Lewiston, Maine (September 15, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Amerika se nommer een plaaslike stryd bevordering, sal sy volgende byeenkoms te hou, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld” op Saterdag, November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. As announced this past Saterdag nag by “NEF XIX,” the MMA portion of the card is scheduled to feature an amateur strawweight women’s bout between Randi Bet Boyington (1-1) en Erin “Fun Size” LAMONTE (3-0).

 

Boyington is die vrou van die huidige NEF MMA Professionele liggewigkampioen Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (10-8) wat ook in aksie sal wees op die November 21 kaart. Randi made her cage debut this past spring defeating Alex Walker (0-1) via 'n eenparige besluit op “NEF XVII.” The crowd in the Colisée was on fire as the bout went back and forth through three hard-fought rounds. Randi trains under her husband at Boyington’s Taekwondo Academy, asook by Young se MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

“Ek is opgewonde om versterking terug in die hok in November – dit is iets wat ek sien uit daarna om,” gesê Randi Bet Boyington wanneer vir kommentaar bereik word. “Ek verwag 'n taai Erin teenstander wees, and I’m training as such. I never underestimate someone’s ability. I know what I’m bringing to the cage as well and NEF fans will be impressed in November. Fighting on the same night as my husband is a bonus. We’re both hungry to have our hands raised at the end of our fights. I don’t think many others could understand or appreciate the emotions that a couple share until they go through a training camp to fight on the same card.”

 

Erin Lamonte is not a stranger to the NEF cage. She appeared for the promotion in early 2013, verslaan Angela Thériault (0-1) via eerste ronde tegniese uitklophou (WIE). Lamonte was victorious twice more that year before taking time off from competing to have a baby with her husband Casey. Returning to the cage onNovember 21, it will have been nearly two years since the undefeated Lamonte won her last bout on a fight card in West Virginia. She has been eager to return to action for some time.

 

“Ek is baie opgewonde om uiteindelik terug in hok op 21 November, veg Randi Bet Boyington,” stated Lamonte. “Na 'n lang tyd af as gevolg van die geboorte van ons seun, I am itching to get back to training and competing. Time to prove that the new and improved mama Fun Size can still kick ass. After all, die moeder leeuwyfie is een van die mees verlate en gevrees in die diereryk.”

 

New England Fights’ volgende byeenkoms, “NEF XX: A geskiedenis van geweld,” vind plaas op November 21, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The event will mark the first time in Maine history a mixed-martial-arts (Plaasmoorde) event and a professional boxing event have taken place together on the same show.

JOHN Raio vooruitstrewende in aftree MET 'n eerste klas SPAN

Skryf 'n opmerking

Lewiston, Maine (September 3, 2015) - New England Fights (NEF), Amerika se nommer een plaaslike stryd bevordering, sal sy negentiende gemengde martial arts-hou (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis, “NEF XIX,” Saterdag, September 12, 2015 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisée in Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature three members of First Class MMA in action that night. Hannah Sparrell (0-0), Rafael Velado (0-0) en Nick Shea (1-0) uit die Brunswick, Maine-based gym. Onlangs, First Class MMA stigter en hoof-afrigter John “First Class” Ray aangesluit NEF mede-eienaar en Match Matt Peterson as die gas op die NEF Podcast.

 

Die afgelope Junie, 38-year-old Raio retired after competing in the NEF cage for some three-and-a-half years. Raio now concentrates on training the members of his First Class MMA gym, insluitend die voorbereiding Sparrell, Velado en Shea vir hul komende aanvalle.

 

“Ek kan beslis 'n baie meer tyd het in my vegters sowel as my familie,” Said Ray. “Die vegters, I can put a lot more time into them because it’s not all about me. When you’re fighting, wanneer jy die opleiding vir 'n stryd, maak nie saak hoeveel jy probeer om te fokus op Nick Shea of ​​Nick Gully of Hannah Sparrell of Rafael of enige van ons vegters, jy kan nie regtig sit 100% effort into a fighter when you really focus on your own fight. It’s tough splitting between their fight and your fight and your job, jou familie en jou kinders.”

 

Sedert die geboorte van NEF vroeg 2012, en die daaropvolgende ontploffing van gewildheid van die sport in die staat, baie nuwe gimnasiums het in die afgelope jaar opgeskiet, including First Class MMA. Raio enjoys, meer as enigiets anders, die hegte, familie-agtige atmosfeer wat ontwikkel het by die fasiliteit, aangesien hy die gimnasium geopen.

 

“Die grootste ding wat ek graag oor ons gym, Ek geniet gaan en 'n deel van, is daar 'n baie nederige groep studente en instrukteurs,” noted Raio. “Everyone who teaches in there is about the fighters. It’s about the students. They’re not about themselves. They’re more about trying to help people get better. Whether they’re a fighter or a teacher, we have a few teachers who go there and we have several women students and several children and adults. It’s a real good mix and very much a family atmosphere. We rarely lose a student.”

 

Die “First Class” moniker is not merely a nickname given to Raio because of his past job with the postal service. Early on in his MMA career, Raio verdien die reputasie van 'n respekvolle, classy, professionele, aangenaam individuele, hence the pun in his nickname. Those same qualities have carried over to the students of First Class MMA.

 

“Ek probeer om almal gelyk te behandel,” Said Ray. “I try to treat everyone respectfully. I think a lot of those guys (by die gym), op sy beurt, treat each other respectfully. If I ever have an issue with a student, as hulle nie optree respek vir die instrukteurs of die ander studente, I’ll pull them aside and if they have to leave then they have to leave. That’s part of life… Ons gym lok, vir een of ander rede, mense wat net mooi mense.”

 

Met meer en meer nuwe studente kom deur die deur van sy gym, Raio has definitely kept busy since his retirement from active competition. Like a proud father, Raio has a real passion for the success of his students. The ultimate reward for him is seeing his protégées do well in the cage.

 

“Na die laaste show (NEF XVIII), toe ek sien Nick (Gulliver, 1-0) het sy arm opgewek en Rob (Robinson, 1-0), Ek was so bly vir die ouens,” recalled Raio. “I’m so happy to see these two guys win. As much as I didn’t come away with a win against Bruce (Boyington, 10-8), Ek het gesê: "As ons gaan 2-1, I’d rather be the one that didn’t pull off the victory.’ I’ve never been as happy for my own win than I was for Nick and Rob that night.”
