GLOVER VACATES; A NEW LIGHT-HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION TO BE CROWNED AT NEF 25

It was a bitterly cold night in Lewiston last February when Ryan Glover (3-1) won the New England Fights (NEF) mchanganyiko martial-sanaa (MMA) amateur light-heavyweight title. The months to come would see Glover accept a new job that would take him up and down the East Coast. With little time to train to defend the title, and in the interest of doing right by the division, Glover recently made the difficult decision to relinquish the championship.

 

NEF executives were quick to act. Mapema leo, the fight promotion announced that Victor Irwin (2-0) would meet Nick Shea (2-0) to fill the vacancy. The two undefeated athletes are scheduled to face-off to determine a new light-heavyweight champion at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS” juu yaSeptemba 10, 2016 katika Lewiston.

 

Irwin was a standout wrestler at Brewer High School in Brewer, Maine at 195-pounds where he was a Class-A state champion. His love for the sport is so strong that when Irwin attended Eastern Maine Community College (EMCC) and learned the school did not have a wrestling program, he created one himself. As a college freshman in 2014 Irwin went to Nationals and achieved All-American status. He currently trains out of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine.

 

I’ve thought a lot about this fight and I’ve come to the conclusion that it doesn’t matter what I say,” said Irwin, “it matters what I do, and come September 10thyou’re gonna see some serious doing.

 

2015 was a great start to the MMA career of Nick Shea. In February of that year, he won his debut fight over the much more experienced Jacob Cameron (1-5) kupitia kwanza ya raundi ya kiufundi mtoano. Later in the year, Shea would go on to defeat Ruben Redman (0-1) by decision in a hard-fought contest. It would earn Shea a nomination for the “Rookie wa Mwaka” katika 2015 NEF Year-End Awards. On Septemba 10 katika Lewiston, Shea will attempt to become the first member of the First Class MMA fight team to capture gold in the NEF cage.

 

It’s an honor to fight someone from Young’s MMA,” said Shea. “I believe this will be my biggest test in the cage to date. I’m grateful and excited to compete for the amateur light heavyweight title. Victor and I will put on an exciting fight on Jumamosi, September 10th!”

JOHN Raio thriving katika kustaafu na CLASS KWANZA TIMU

Lewiston, Maine (Septemba 3, 2015) - New England mapambano (NEF), Namba moja kikanda kukuza Amerika ya kupambana, itafanya wake kumi na tisa mchanganyiko wa martial-sanaa (MMA) tukio, “NEF XIX,” Jumamosi, Septemba 12, 2015 katika Androscoggin Benki Colisée katika Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature three members of First Class MMA in action that night. Hana Sparrell (0-0), Rafael Velado (0-0) na Nick Shea (1-0) kutoka Brunswick, Maine-based gym. Hivi karibuni, Hatari ya kwanza MMA mwanzilishi na kocha mkuu John “Hatari ya kwanza” Ray alijiunga na NEF mmiliki mwenza na MatchMaker Mathayo Peterson kama mgeni kwenye NEF Mwanakijiji.

 

Mwezi Juni mwaka huu uliopita, 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, ikiwa ni pamoja na kuandaa Sparrell, Velado na Shea kwa vipindi vya ujao zao.

 

“Mimi dhahiri wanaweza kuweka mengi muda zaidi katika wapiganaji wangu na vilevile familia yangu,” Said Ray. “wapiganaji, I can put a lot more time into them because it’s not all about me. When you’re fighting, wakati wewe ni mafunzo kwa ajili ya kupambana, bila kujali ni kiasi gani kujaribu kuzingatia Nick Shea au Nick Gully au Hana Sparrell au Rafael au yoyote ya wapiganaji wetu, huwezi kweli kuweka 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, familia yako na watoto wako.”

 

Tangu kuzaliwa kwa NEF katika mapema 2012, na mlipuko baadae ya umaarufu michezo katika hali, nyingi mpya gyms imeibuka katika miaka ya hivi karibuni, including First Class MMA. Raio enjoys, zaidi kuliko kitu kingine chochote, tight-knit, familia-kama anga kwamba ina maendeleo katika kituo cha tangu yeye alifungua Gym.

 

“Jambo kubwa mimi kama kuhusu mazoezi yetu, Mimi kufurahia kwenda na kuwa sehemu ya, ni kuna kundi mnyenyekevu sana wa wanafunzi na walimu,” 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.

 

The “Hatari ya kwanza” 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 chuma sifa ya heshima, classy, mtaalamu, likeable mtu binafsi, hence the pun in his nickname. Those same qualities have carried over to the students of First Class MMA.

 

“Mimi kujaribu kutibu kila mtu kwa usawa,” Said Ray. “I try to treat everyone respectfully. I think a lot of those guys (katika mazoezi), kwa upande wake, treat each other respectfully. If I ever have an issue with a student, kama siyo kaimu heshima kwa walimu au wanafunzi wengine, I’ll pull them aside and if they have to leave then they have to leave. That’s part of life… Mazoezi yetu huvutia, kwa sababu fulani, watu ambao ni watu tu nzuri.”

 

Na zaidi na zaidi ya wanafunzi wapya kuja kwa njia ya mlango mazoezi yake, 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.

 

“Baada ya show ya mwisho (NEF XVIII), nilipoona Nick (Gulliver, 1-0) kuwa mkono wake kukulia na Rob (Robinson, 1-0), Mimi nilikuwa na furaha kwa guys wale,” 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), Nilisema 'kama tukienda 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.
