PAT KELLY TO COMPETE IN FINAL MMA FIGHT ON SEPTEMBER 8 IM BANGOR

Maine (August 7, 2018) - New England Fights (NEF) will hold its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 35: Wicked Season,” auf September 8 at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor. Bereits heute Morgen, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur lightweight title fight to the card. Pat Kelly (4-0) is scheduled to defend his strap against the challenge of fellow undefeated MMA competitor Tim Manning (2-0).

The fight will be the final contest for the 53-year-old Kelly who began competing in MMA four years ago in his late 40s. He brought to the cage unmatched wrestling credentials earned through a lifetime on the mats. Kelly is nothing short of a legend in Maine wrestling circles. He won a state championship as a senior competing for the former Camden-Rockport High School. Kelly went on to wrestle for the University of Maine where he claimed a New England title and competed in the national NCAA championships. Später, as a coach Kelly would lead Camden-Rockport and Camden Hills Regional High School to multiple state championships. Among the students he coached is current UFC star Tim Boetsch (21-11). Kelly was inducted into the Maine Wrestling Hall of Fame in 2007.

I started this journey five years ago in Bangor with Young’s MMA,” said Kelly. “It is only fitting I have my farewell fight in the same great city. I am very grateful to NEF for the opportunity to fight in their cage and ultimately win an ammy title. Zu mir, age is simply a number. I have searched for tough and competitive challenges my entire career, and this fight is certainly another big challenge.

For all his accomplishments in wrestling, Kelly’s time in the MMA cage has been impressive as well. He was able to finish his first three bouts on his way to earning a crack at the NEF Amateur Lightweight Championship. Last summer atNEF 29,Kelly handed then-undefeated Rafael Velado (4-1), an athlete fourteen years Kelly’s junior, the first loss of his career to claim the belt. Over a year later, Kelly promises to bring his trademark intensity to both his training camp at Young’s MMA and his final fight on September 8.

I train hard, Zeit,” exclaimed Kelly. “And I am sure my opponent does the same thing, and that’s what it is all aboutthe willingness to prepare to win. Zusätzlich, it is important for me to let coach Chris Young and Ernie Fitch know that I truly have appreciated them letting me become a part of the Young’s MMA family. To my teammates at Young’s and to all my fansthanks for the rideI have enjoyed you all.

Kelly’s challenger on September 8, Tim Manning, is also undefeated. Fighting out of F2 Arena in Gainesville, Florida, Manning is nicknamedMurderfor good reason. It took Manning a mere 37-seconds to submit his opponent with an armbar in his amateur debut last fall. He followed up that performance with another impressive first round submission earlier this year in his sophomore cage appearance.

KELLY CAPTURES LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE AND JONES BREAKS KNOCKOUT RECORD IN LEWISTON

ZUR SOFORTIGEN VERÖFFENTLICHUNG: Lewiston, Maine (Juni 18, 2017) – Ray “All Business” Wood returned to Maine with multiple Bellator Fighting Championships bouts under his belt, seeking a triumphant homecoming at “New England Fights 29: Stars & Stripes.”

The fighting pride of Bucksport simply ran into someone with more upper-level experience in the mixed martial arts cage. Alexandre “Popo” Bezerra put on a ground-and-pound clinic and scored a unanimous decision in the main event Samstag night at Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

Färse (20-5) looked every bit the part of a nine-time Bellator veteran, defying every attempt by Wood to gain a semblance of control during the 15-minute skirmish. Wood’s last-ditch attempts to lock in a choke and gain shoulder leverage went by the boards early in the third round, and Bezerra maintained top and side control until the final bell.

Two scorecards had Bezerra pitching a shutout at 30-27, while the third went his way at 29-28. Holz, a former NEF featherweight champion now living in Amarillo, Texas, and training out of Nick’s Fight Club, dipped to 8-4 as a professional with his third consecutive defeat.

History was made on two fronts in the amateur MMA portion of Samstag 12-Kampf-Karte.

Pat Kelly (4-0), 52, of Rockport, became the oldest titleholder in NEF history, defeating Rafael Velado (4-1) by unanimous decision in a battle of unbeaten warriors to take Velado’s amateur lightweight belt.

Früher am Abend, Josh Jones (2-0) delivered a vicious right hand to knock out Anthony Spires (0-3) in four seconds, shattering the organization’s previous mark for quickest stoppage.

Three encounters in the ring brought professional boxing back to the NEF stage for the first time since November 2016. Wins by undefeated Jason Quirk (6-0) and Casey Kramlich (8-0-1) and a no-contest in the bout between Russell “The Haitian Sensation” Lamour (15-2) and Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (1-0) gave Portland Boxing Club the upper hand.

Ras Hylton (2-0), Matt Denning (5-6) und Josh Parker (6-9) also prevailed in pro MMA. Kam Arnold (1-0), Jon Tefft (2-0) and Alex Walker (3-1) celebrated victory in the amateur hexagon.

Most observers expected the Kelly-Velado showdown to end up on the mat, given Kelly’s long career as a champion wrestler and coach and Velado’s black belt prowess in jiu-jitsu.

Kelly’s wisdom in staying on his feet allowed him to stay in control throughout. He landed resounding punches to punctuate each of the first two rounds. After his lone takedown in the third round, recognizing that he probably controlled the fight in the judges’ Augen, Kelly allowed Velado to get off the canvas.

It was the last in a series of the all the right moves for the man with the physique of a competitor in his 20s. Kelly prevailed by scores of 30-27, 30-27 und 29-28. In a tremendous act of sportsmanship, a smiling Velado wrapped the title belt around Kelly’s waist.

Jones rocked Spiresworld with a vicious hook, raising the former pro basketball player’s record to 2-0 with two early stoppages in his career with First Class MMA.

Hylton and Tefft gave First Class two more first-round victories.

“Rasquatch,” outweighed by almost 30 Pfund, finished Oklahoma’s Eric Ramsey with a series of 10 unanswered bombs to stay unbeaten as a pro.

Tefft lost a pair of trunks in the process but gained his second amateur win against no defeats, earning what was officially a first-round TKO over Mike Williams of Lewiston’s Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Each man had a chance to end the fight early, but it was Tefft finishing the round with a reversal and a series of strikes. Williams (injured left shoulder) then failed to answer the bell for the second stanza.

Denning shut down Dominic Jones (1-1) with a standing rear naked choke at 2:05 of the first round for his second consecutive victory.

Parker absorbed a vicious kick to the back of his left leg from Andre Belcarris (0-2) in Runde zwei, but he dominated the first and third sessions to eke out a unanimous verdict.

Arnold was triumphant in his MMA debut, dropping Glenn Kasabian (1-3) to his knees and finishing with a resounding right-left combination for a TKO at 1:54 der ersten Runde.

Gehhilfe (4-1) won her fourth consecutive bout in an eagerly anticipated women’s strawweight scrap with Sarah Ziehm (1-1). The New Hampshire native locked in an armbar late in the first round, resulting in a technical submission at the referee’s discretion with three seconds remaining.

The Lamour-Boyington bout was ballyhooed as Maine’s version of Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor, and Boyington’s unorthodox style gave the veteran Lamour some difficulty. The second round was stopped twice briefly, and finally halted for good after an accidental head butt sent a bloodied Boyington face-first to the deck. Since it was too early to take the bout to the scorecards at that stage, the fight was ruled a no-contest.

Kramlich defeated Bellator MMA veteran Bryan Goldsby by third-round knockout. A right cross sent Goldsby to one knee, where he remained for the count of 10.

Quirk dispatched veteran Borngod Washington by second-round TKO.

"NEF 30: Rumble in Bangor” will be held at Cross Insurance Center in Maine’s Queen City am Samstag. August 5. Tickets are available beginning Montag bei ticketmaster.com.

AGE IS NOTHING BUT A NUMBER IN LEWISTON TITLE FIGHT

 

 

ZUR SOFORTIGEN VERÖFFENTLICHUNG: Lewiston, Maine (Juni 12, 2017) – There are wink-and-nudge undertones when 38-year-old Rafael Velado declares “I’m the young guy, for once” as he contemplates his New England Fights amateur lightweight title defense on Samstag, Juni 17. Dann wieder, er ist, by nearly a decade-and-a-half.

 

It’s a disservice to label hall of fame competitor and coach Pat Kelly a sentimental favorite in his quest to win the 155-pound strap. Yet the 52-year-old assuredly is, as evidenced by at least one internet poll that shows him as the clear people’s choice to win the fight.

 

Velado vs. Kelly is a bundle of contradictions, an intriguing mix of styles, perhaps even a pairing that defies logic. It’s certainly a spotlight neither man would have predicted for himself five years ago. It’s also a clash of undefeated warriors that promises to rock the house at Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

 

“You can buy a ticket for this fight, but I truly believe you’re only going to need the edge of your seat,” Kelly, an amateur wrestling legend from the Camden-Rockport region. “I think we’re going to light the place up.”

 

“Everybody seems excited, and wouldn’t that be a cool story? If I end up saying later on, ‘I fought a guy when he was 52, and he beat my butt,’ the moral of the story is don’t ever count anybody out,” Velado said.

 

Just to clarify, Verschleiert (4-0) doesn’t expect that to happen. A black belt in jiu-jitsu fighting out of First Class MMA of Brunswick, he looks to extend his winning streak over fighters from Young’s MMA of Bangor.

 

Velado claimed the vacant crown with a first-round demolition of Jimmy Jackson last September. Davor, Mike Peitersen took Velado the distance in his toughest test to date.

 

“It makes sense from a record standpoint, but I’ve fought four times since the last time Pat did, and two of those were against his training partners,” Velado said. “If you look at strength of opposition, I don’t know that it’s that close. I’m not saying that means it won’t be a good match. I just don’t think it’s very comparable. But we all know the MMA magic can happen.”

 

Due to lengthy rehabilitation from a knee injury, Kelly (3-0) hasn’t fought since June 15, 2015 bei „NEF 18: Made in America,” when he won by technical knockout over Steve Bang Sr. He beat Bang’s son and namesake in the same manner and also defeated Frank Dellasala in his debut, which came at welterweight.

 

The champion wrestler (Universität von Maine) und Trainer (Camden Hills High School, where he mentored now-UFC star Tim Boetsch) weighed in at over 200 pounds before he began the three-hour round trip to and from Bangor, four times each week.

 

“I’m an amateur’s amateur,” Kelly said. “I got into this four years ago to stay in shape, make contacts, make new friends and enjoy the experience. When they asked me if I’d like to try getting in the cage, es wurde, ‘Yeah, I’ll give that a shot.

 

Kelly said he was welcomed with open arms, then “beaten to a pulp,” by the likes of Bruce Boyington, Ryan Sanders and Aaron Laceyall accomplished pro fighters from the Bangor gym.

 

It wasn’t long, predictably, before he fell in love with the concepts of competition and self-discipline all over again.

 

“There’s a bold truth to this sport,” Kelly said. “It’s one-on-one, locked in a cage with the other guy, and what are you going to do to survive? I love that feeling.”

 

Conventional wisdom dictates that the fight will go to the ground quickly. Then it’s a case of which fighter can assert his will and expertise.

 

Velado doesn’t lack for training partners who test his mettle every day. Six of them are scheduled to appear in the same cage at NEF 29. First Class owner John Raio also mirrors Kelly in terms of size and decorated wrestling background.

 

“Pat and I have been in (Kampfsportarten) a long time. We’ve both won against some excellent people and some not-so-excellent people,” Velado said. “The road to winning against me, a guy has to be better in two disciplines and also have a better game plan.”

 

Interesting choice of words, when you consider Kelly’s admission that he is more inclined to fly by the seat of his pants.

 

“My coaches talk about a game plan, but I don’t know if I’m a game plan kind of guy. I go right back to how I know to survive. That’s the warrior in me,” Kelly said. “What you have are two guys who are not going to give up. I think that’s part of the interest. That’s what makes it a good fight.

 

“Raf is experienced," er machte weiter. „Er ist ungeschlagen. He’s the champion. I’m the old guy coming in and trying to knock him off. There are a number of parallels that make this a fascinating fight.”

 

The combatantsthoughtful words in separate interviews even followed the same wavelength.

 

Velado graciously said he understands the fansdesire to see Kelly keep turning back time, extend his own record as the oldest winner in NEF history and add the distinction of oldest champion to that list.

 

“I actually am a fan of Pat,” Velado said. “The MMA fan in me is rooting for him. I’d like to see him have whatever level of success is just short of winning. Mentally it wouldn’t wreck me if I lost the fight.”

 

gleichfalls, Kelly is prepared for the possibility that the outcome won’t go his way.

“I don’t ever train to lose, but often times winning comes in unique ways,"Er sagte.

If his four children perceive the merits of his commitment to MMA as more than a midlife crisis, Kelly believes he has already won the greatest battle of all.

 

"Ja, of course you want to win, but I also want them to see that when you have a personal goal, you can’t just say you want it. You have to go get it,"Er sagte. “When I spend all that time driving back and forth, whether I’m talking to myself to thinking or listening to music, most of the time when I’m chasing this thing, I’m on my own. And I know my kids and students can see that.”

 

Die Juni 17 card tentatively features four professional MMA fights, four pro boxing matches, and seven amateur skirmishes in the cage. Tickets to “NEF 29: Stars & Stripes” start at $25 und sind durch den Aufruf zur Verfügung (207) 783-2009 ext. 525 oder thecolisee.com.

AMATEUR TITLE FIGHT PROMISES TO BE AN ALL-OUT WAR

ZUR SOFORTIGEN VERÖFFENTLICHUNG: Lewiston, Maine (Mai 3, 2017) -Neu England Fights (NEF) kehrt zum Androscoggin Bank Colisee zurück Samstag, Juni 17, 2017 mit dem nächsten Event der Kampfförderung, “NEF 29: STERNE & STREIFEN.” Die Veranstaltung bietet eine ganze Reihe von Mixed-Martial-Arts (MMA) und professionelle Boxkämpfe. The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a lightweight title fight that will see Rafael “Deez Nuts” Verschleiert (4-0) defend against Pat Kelly (3-0).

 

A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, Velado made his NEF debut in the fall of 2015. He submitted Kelly’s Young’s MMA teammate Jimmy Jackson (3-3) bei “NEF 25” to claim the amateur lightweight title. Miteinander ausgehen, only Mike Peitersen (3-1), another member of Young’s, has gone the distance with Velado who has established himself as a master of arm bars and Kimuras. Velado is a member of First Class MMA in Brunswick, Maine.

 

Here we go again,” exclaimed Velado. “We’ve got a friendly rivalry going between First Class MMA and Young’s MMA. They throw a badass at me and I answer the call. PK (Pat Kelly) is a legend of sorts. If you wrestle in Maine and you don’t know who he is, you’re out of touch. I think PK a different kind of challenge for me than my previous four fights. I’ve shown that I can get the fight to the ground and that I’m dangerous when I get there, but that’s a wildcard with Pat. This fight is very exciting to me because we are both undefeated and the winner is going to have to prove that they are ready for the next level by bringing a well-rounded game. I have no doubt as to whether PK is capable of taking me down. Die Frage ist; will he regret his decision to take me there? We will see on 17. Juni.”

 

Pat Kelly is, as Velado noted, a legend in the Maine wrestling world. He put together an impressive 116-20 career record at the University of Maine, captured a New England title and wrestled in the NCAA Championships in 1986. The 52-year-old is no stranger to the championship circle as a coach either, having led the Camden Hills team to several state titles over the years, earning himself an induction into the Maine Amateur Wrestling Alliance Hall of Fame in the process. Kelly famously coached current UFC star Tim Boetsch (20-11) to four state wrestling titles during Boetsch’s time at Camden Hills.

 

As a member of Young’s MMA, Kelly made his MMA debut atNEF 14.Known for his intense in-cage performances, Kelly has finished all three of his opponents. A knee injury has forced him to the sidelines since his last victory in the summer of 2015.

 

“Erste, my sincere thanks to NEF for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and to Coach Chris Young and Ernie Fitch along with all my teammates at Young’s MMA,” said Kelly. “I am so pumped-up to get back into the NEF cage. I am now fully recovered from a serious knee injury and am felling better than ever. This fight makes perfect sense in that you have two undefeated fighters that are willing to wage war for the belt.

 

I am honored to share the cage with a fighter of Raf’s caliber,” Kelly continued. “I respect the fact he is currently the undefeated champ. To fight him means that my time has come to offer him a challenge worthy of title contention. I have been training for an opportunity like this for the past four years. I will bring to the cage a sense of unpredictability and true grit. Im Wesentlichen, Raf will do what he has to do and I will do what I have to do. Was auch immer passiert, happens.

Vater sucht SOHN IM MMA CAGE AVENGE

 

Lewiston, Maine (April 23, 2015) - Es klingt wie der Handlungsstrang eines zwei-Sterne-Action-Film der 1980er Jahre. Diese Geschichte, jedoch, spielt nicht auf Grund Kabel an einem Wochentag nachmittags. Es sind keine Explosionen, keine Verfolgungsjagden, keine halbautomatische Waffen. Brian Dennehey spielt die Rolle des Bösewichts weder noch die heroische Patriarchen. Stattdessen, Diese Geschichte spielt sich in den Neu-England Fights (NEF) Mixed-Martial-Arts- (MMA) Käfig, und es Stars nicht eine, sondern zwei Männer mittleren Alters besitzt das Laufwerk, Fähigkeit und Athletik, dass die meisten Menschen die Hälfte ihres Alters nur träumen.

Coach Pat Kelly nach dem Sieg über Steven Bang, Jr. bei NEF XV

50-jahre alt Pat Kelly (2-0) ist eine wahre Legende von Maine wrestling. Ein Lehrer und Coach at Camden Hills Regional High School in Rockport, Maine, Kelly wurde in die Maine Amateur Wrestling Alliance Hall of Fame aufgenommen in 2007. Mit zahlreichen staatlichen und regionalen Wrestling Titel als Konkurrent und Trainer zu seinem Kredit, gab er sein Debüt MMA als Mitglied der Young-MMA in 2014.

 

Dr. Steve Bang kommt für seinen Kampf am NEF XVI
Dr. Steve Bang kommt für seinen Kampf am NEF XVI

Kelly Gegner auf Juni 13 in Lewiston, Maine, 45-jahre alt Dr. Steve Bang (1-0), hat ein Wrestling-Hintergrund selbst, wie seine Söhne Steven Bang tun, Jr. (3-3), Sheldon Bang (2-2), Shawn Bang (1-1) und Skylar Bang. Bei “NEF XV” im November letzten Jahres, Dr. Bang sah aus Käfig-Seite wie Pat Kelly beendete sein Sohn Steven via technischen Ko (DIE). Es wird, dass der Verlust Dr. Bang wird versuchen, zu rächen, wenn er trifft Kelly auf Juni 13 an der Androscoggin Banküber Colisee bei “NEF XVIII: Made in America.”

 

“Mein Sohn Steven und Pat sind zuvor in den Käfig und traf Pat nahm, dass der Sieg,” , sagte Dr.. Knall. “Ich sehe mich als bereits herunter 0-1. NEF 18 ist etwa die Rücknahme und die die Jungen, wie es geht. Wie ich immer sage, schließlich, wir werden mit einem Band der Brüderlichkeit und Respekt, die einzigartig für Kampf aber bis dahin ist zu umarmen, es ist Krieg.

 

“Ich bin aufgeregt und geehrt, wieder in das Käfig auf Juni 13th. Dadurch wird eine für die Aufzeichnung Bücher sein. Zusammen, Pat und ich bringe über 95 Lebensjahre Erfahrung in den Käfig. Wir bringen die Kämpfe an, weil alle eine andere Ebene, die wir auf dem Spiel. Dies ist für echte und schon gar nicht Ihre Midlife-Viehtrieb über die Ebenen mit Curly noch deine Woche auf einer Harley mit The Wild Hogs. Ich hoffe wirklich, alles wird unterhalten zu werden, aber wenn ich geben Sie den Käfig, Ich mit nichts als schlechte Absichten geben. Als Ergebnis der Ausbildung bei Central Maine Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (CMBJJ), jede Bewegung, jede Kombination, jeder Streik ist mit der Absicht gehandelt zu beenden und das kann in der ersten Runde sein. Jedoch, wenn dies geht zu den letzten Runden, Sie werden das Genie des Central Maine Anlage Klinik und Prime Variable Leichtathletik sehen. Sie haben mich mit dem nonstop Herzkreislaufsystem von Weltklasse-Ironman Triathleten verwendet ausgestattet.”

 

“Dieser Kampf ist zwischen zwei Herren, die immer noch den Krieger-Mentalität zu umarmen,” sagte Coach Kelly, wenn für einen Kommentar erreicht. “Persönlich, Ich werde für diesen Kampf mit einer Antriebskraft, die nicht in Worte fassen kann trainieren. Auch, mit einem Gefühl der Dankbarkeit, die Young-MMA hat die Zeit, um mich und die Wertschätzung von NEF trainieren bietet mir die Gelegenheit, ihren Käfig geben gemacht.”

 

Ein erreichter bariatric Chirurg durch Tages, Dr. Bang hatte die Gelegenheit, zusammen mit seinen Söhnen Steven und Sheldon auf den Kampf “NEF XVI” Karte im vergangenen Februar. Als er in den Käfig in den Schritten “NEF XVIII” gegen Kelly, jedoch, es wird Dr. Knall, und Dr. Bang allein, die die Familie.

 

“Ich versuche, zu identifizieren und diese einzigartige Möglichkeiten, die entlang in das Leben kommen wirklich zu schätzen,” erklärte Dr. Knall. “"NEF XVI’ war eine der seltenen Gelegenheiten, wenn alle Stücke an seinem Platz. Kämpfe auf der gleichen Karte wie zwei meiner Jungs war episch. Steven ist nun die Sanierung von einem verheerenden Training Verletzungen und Sheldon verlässt den Zustand Mai für zwei Jahre im öffentlichen Auftrag für die Kirche. Shawn hat 1 Jahr noch auf seine Mission und Connor (Murphy) ist in der Küstenwache in Kalifornien. Eine ähnliche Möglichkeit kann eine lange Zeit sein Kommen, so für 'NEF XVIII,’ es ist alles über mich. Ich werde allein die Clan Bang vertreten.

 

“Trash Talk paßt mir nicht gut. Ich versuchte es noch einmal ganz nach Wirkung. Nee, noch paßt mir nicht. Ich mag Pat. Ich respektiere ihn auf jeden Fall und ich bin sicher, dass wir gute Freunde werden, aber im Moment, er ist gerade etwas, das nicht ihm gehört,. Ich bin wirklich sehr dankbar, dass Pat. Als Antwort auf diejenigen, die versucht haben, die Dichotomie von meinem Leben in Einklang zu bringen, Ich behaupte, dass dies schon immer zu einem gewissen Grad ein Teil meines Lebens. Den Sprung in die MMA Veranstaltungsort, jedoch, war riesig und der Einsatz hoch ist. Es dauerte eine Weile, bis die Zeit reif war, und selbst dann, Ich erkannte sie nicht, bis ich sah Steven und Pat Kampf. Es gibt nichts wie, deinen Sohn Schlacht, während Sie nur die Füße weg und hilflos. So stressig wie es ist, für die Vorbereitung und Durchführung Ihrer eigenen Kampf, es zehnmal schlimmer für mich, sie zu beobachten,.
