KELLY CAPTURES LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE AND JONES BREAKS KNOCKOUT RECORD IN LEWISTON

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

ΓΙΑ ΑΜΕΣΗ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΕΥΣΗ: Lewiston, Μέιν (Ιούνιος 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 Σάββατο night at Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

Bezerra (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. Ξύλο, a former NEF featherweight champion now living in Amarillo, Τέξας, 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 Σάββατο 12-κάρτα πάλης.

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.

Νωρίτερα το απόγευμα, 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), Ματ Denning (5-6) και Τζος Πάρκερ (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’ eyes, 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 και 29-28. In a tremendous act of sportsmanship, a smiling Velado wrapped the title belt around Kelly’s waist.

Jones rocked Spires’ world 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 λίρες, 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) στο δεύτερο γύρο, 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 του πρώτου γύρου.

Walker (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 Σάββατο. Αύγουστος 5. Tickets are available beginning Δευτέρα στο ticketmaster.com.

DIRIGO ALUM DALEY BALANCES WORK, FAMILY AND MMA CAGEFIGHTING

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

 

 

ΓΙΑ ΑΜΕΣΗ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΕΥΣΗ: Lewiston, Μέιν (Ιούνιος 14, 2017) – Derek Daley believes that his mixed martial arts training gives him an edge in his career. He also recognizes that training with First Class MMA makes him a better mixed martial artist.

 

It’s a busy life for Daley, a law enforcement officer and father of a 6-year-old daughter, Ella. He will break away for a few frenzied moments on the night ofΣάββατο, Ιούνιος 17, when he returns to the New England Fights hexagon for the first time in a year.

 

Daley, 27, is one of seven fighters who will represent his Brunswick gym at “NEF 29: Stars & Stripes.” The opening bell is set for 7 μ.μ. at Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston.

 

“I’ve improved in every area, and I’ve really improved my cardio,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “My first fight I was worried about what might happen if I got to the third round.”

 

There was barely time to break a sweat. Daley, a two-time Maine high school wrestling champion at Dirigo High School in Dixfield who later played college football at Husson University, dispatched Johel Stephenson in only 55 δευτερόλεπτα.

 

“We had a game plan to hit him with a straight jab to set him up for an overhead right, then get it down to the mat and finish it with ground-and-pound,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “It actually went exactly as we planned it, which was great.”

 

Αυτή τη φορά, Daley (1-0) takes on the more seasoned Frank Johanson (2-2) of Lewiston’s Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a featherweight amateur scrap.

 

Daley joins Ras Hylton, Dominic Jones, Rafael Velado, Josh Jones, Jake Deppmeyer and Jon Tefft in the First Class contingent on the docket. He was lured to the training center and the MMA phenomenon by another local police officer with fighting in his blood, Nick Gulliver of Jay.

 

“I had been training jiu-jitsu at the Foundry in Farmington,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “Nick said (ΜΜΑ) would translate well to law enforcement, and he was right. Περισσότερο, John and Jody (Ακτίνα) are just great people.”

 

Raio’s experience on the high school and college wrestling mat has made him a natural mentor for Daley, who hit the 100-win plateau early in his junior year at Dirigo.

Daley won the 119-pound state title as a sophomore and backed it up as a senior at 135 λίρες, not far from where he fights today at 145.

 

“Derek is a tremendous athlete and one of our best wrestlers,” Raio said. “He has a solid attitude and gives 100 percent every class and sparring session.”

 

It’s admittedly difficult for Daley to balance his competitive passion with his blossoming police career.

 

He began as an officer in Wilton. After moving to Richmond, he applied for work in three surrounding cities. Augusta was first to make him an offer.

 

“I’ve been there since November and it’s a perfect fit for me,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “I have a great sergeant and a great team.”

 

Police work is a family tradition. Daley’s father, Hart, is Chief Deputy of the Oxford County Sheriff’s Department.

 

It was not a case of a father wanting his son to fill his shoes.

 

“I majored in physical education,” Daley noted. “Dad said, ‘Be a teacher. Don’t go into law enforcement.’ But it’s one of those things that must be pretty stubborn in the family, because my brother and I both are police officers. The schedule is tough and unpredictable.”

 

First Class MMA helps Daley bring his commitments as cop and fighter under one roof. “It’s a great workout. I’m not really into traditional weight lifting. Εννοώ, I did it when I played college football (Husson). This way I get a workout, but it doesn’t feel like I’m working,"Είπε. “It definitely makes me feel more comfortable if I ever have to get into a physical confrontation as an officer.”

 

Ακτίνα, now retired from the cage after a run as one of NEF’s most popular fighters in its infancy, understands the home vs. work vs. family balance. He is the father of two and was employed full time with the U.S. Postal Service when he got the itch to try combat sports once again.

 

Ακόμη, he is high on his pupil’s potential if Daley ever decides to focus fully on the cage.

 

“The sky is the limit for him in this sport. I can see him getting to the UFC or Bellator if that is the path he chooses,” Raio said. “He is an outstanding police officer and a great father as well. He puts his daughter first in everything he does.”

 

Daley returns the compliments, insisting that even if his foray into MMA winds up being a cup of coffee, he will continue to train at First Class for fitness purposes. He describes the atmosphere as a tight circle of friends and a brotherhood.

 

“It’s a great group of guys. There are no egos,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “I was kind of worried about that when I first showed up. Was I going to be (a target) because I’m a police officer, or were there a bunch of guys all looking to be the alpha dog? But it’s quite the opposite. It’s like a big family. You’re punching a guy in the face, but you’re family.”

 

That goes double for his friendship with Gulliver, who is undefeated as an amateur heavyweight.

 

“I feel like a baby gorilla with its mom when I’m working out with Nick,” he quipped. “I think for him it’s enjoyment just to pound on me.”

 

It certainly reduces the stress when he gets the opportunity to pick on someone his own size at an NEF card, although Daley knows better than to take the veteran Johanson lightly.

 

The CMBJJ fighter enters on a two-fight winning streak, and he defeated First Class’ Deppmeyer in February.

 

“Frank is a tough opponent. I saw his fight against Jake,"Δήλωσε ο Daley. “He has a tough chin. He takes shots and just keeps coming forward.”

 

Even though he fought in front of thousands at the state wrestling showcase four times as a high school student, Daley is humble enough to acknowledge that an NEF show is a different animal.

 

“I was a complete nervous wreck, like almost to the point where I was ready to puke behind the curtain,” he said of his debut. “Then once I stepped in the cage, it went away and I just did what I had to do. I was able to shake off the rust a little bit.

 

“But it’s still different from wrestling. Back then I wasn’t getting punched in the face.”

 

Ο Ιούνιος 17 card 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 και είναι διαθέσιμα με την κλήση (207) 783-2009 ext. 525 ή σε www.thecolisee.com.

AGE IS NOTHING BUT A NUMBER IN LEWISTON TITLE FIGHT

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

 

 

ΓΙΑ ΑΜΕΣΗ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΕΥΣΗ: Lewiston, Μέιν (Ιούνιος 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 Σάββατο, Ιούνιος 17. Then again, αυτός είναι, 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, Velado (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. Πριν από αυτό, 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 at “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 (Πανεπιστήμιο του Maine) and coach (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, ήταν, ‘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 Lacey – all 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 (μαχητικά αθλήματα) 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,” he continued. “He’s undefeated. 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 combatants’ thoughtful words in separate interviews even followed the same wavelength.

 

Velado graciously said he understands the fans’ desire 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.”

 

Επίσης, 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,"Είπε.

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.

 

“Yes, 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,"Είπε. “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.”

 

Ο Ιούνιος 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 και είναι διαθέσιμα με την κλήση (207) 783-2009 ext. 525 ή σε thecolisee.com.

AMATEUR TITLE FIGHT PROMISES TO BE AN ALL-OUT WAR

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

ΓΙΑ ΑΜΕΣΗ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΕΥΣΗ: Lewiston, Μέιν (Μάιος 3, 2017) -Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Σάββατο, Ιούνιος 17, 2017 with the fight promotion’s next event, “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” The event will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts (ΜΜΑ) και επαγγελματικές περιόδους πυγμαχίας. The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a lightweight title fight that will see Rafael “Deez Nuts” Velado (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) στο “NEF 25” to claim the amateur lightweight title. Μέχρι σήμερα, 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, Μέιν.

 

“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. Το ερώτημα είναι; will he regret his decision to take me there? We will see on June 17th.”

 

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 at “NEF 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.

 

“Πρώτα, 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. In essence, Raf will do what he has to do and I will do what I have to do. Ανεξαρτήτως της έκβασης, happens.”

 

New England Fights returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine with its next event, “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES,” Σάββατο, Ιούνιος 17, 2017. Tickets are on sale now at the Colisee box office 207-783-2009 x 525 και στην ηλεκτρονική διεύθυνσηwww.TheColisee.com.

FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO A SHOT AT THE GOLD, JACKSON AND VELADO TAKE MMA CAREERS TO A NEW LEVEL AT NEF 25

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

 

Με: Kalle Oakes

Humility is the undertone for any conversation with Jimmy Jackson about his mixed martial arts career. It was a humbling experience that twisted Rafael Velado’s arm into the world of combat sports in the first place.

One of the men will depart Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston wielding a source of pride – the New England Fights amateur lightweight championship belt – after their clash at “NEF 25: Heroes and Villains” this Σάββατο, Σεπτέμβριος 10.

Mention the idea of his earning a title shot in the hexagon and Jackson (3-2) almost can’t withhold a laugh.

“It’s a big opportunity for someone like me,»Είπε ο Τζάκσον. “I never thought I would be fighting for a title. I’ve had a ton of teammates come up to me and say, ‘You deserve this! Way to go!’ I just never thought of myself as that top-tier fighter. I’ve always been the guy kind of behind the scenes.”

Easy enough for the Bangor fighter to blend in, considering that he trains at Young’s MMA with the likes of Aaron “Relentless” Lacey, “The” Ryan Sanders, and Josh “Hook On” Harvey.

Fighting for the belt vacated by stablemate Harvey isn’t an endeavor that would have entered Jackson’s mind back in 2012, when he accepted a fight in Vermont on a relative lark. He won via submission, with a choke, σε 96 δευτερόλεπτα.

“My training started out as me and a few other guys messing around in a basement,»Είπε ο Τζάκσον. “My first fight was spur of the moment. I won and it sort of got the adrenaline going, σαν, ‘I can do this. I did pretty good.’”

Through a co-worker, he connected up with Young’s MMA.

After a learning curve that included back-to-back losses in 2013, Jackson steadily improved and defeated two consecutive opponents to earn his title opportunity.

“It’s a blessing and a curse. It’s truly a family. These are guys who truly stand by each other, in hard times, bad times, in and out of the gym,” Jackson said of wearing Young’s colors. “But on the flip side, everybody’s watching you, expecting a certain amount of entertainment from you. I want to perform at such a level that people are excited to watch me fight.”

While most fighters go through the drudgery of training in order to bask in the glory of fight night, Jackson contends that it’s the training he loves most. And entering the cage, he claims, is not about him.

“Fighting, σε μένα, is just what I can do to show everybody what my coaches have accomplished,»Είπε ο Τζάκσον. “They sacrifice so much to give us fighters the recognition and they get very little recognition in return. The only reason I get in the cage is to represent them.”

Jackson gravitated to MMA with minimal experience in combat sports. Velado, of Norridgewock, brought a decade of jiu-jitsu and a black belt to the table.

That journey had less glamorous beginnings, ωστόσο.

“In July 2005, I was playing basketball and a guy on my own team, if you can believe it, punched me in the face. He took exception to something and he messed me up pretty good,” Velado said. “From watching UFC, I thought I knew what to do to defend myself, and I pulled him down with an arm bar. Pathetically, but I pulled him down.”

Velado called it a reality check, one that led him to enroll in jiu-jitsu classes taught by Aaron Blake in Boothbay Harbor.

“I think all guys think they will be able to defend themselves in a situation, and most of those guys are wrong,” Velado said.

In more than three years of tournament competition, Velado said he fought more than 50 times and lost only three matches.

He grew restless and sought a new challenge. It led him to John Raio’s First Class MMA in Topsham. Velado was primed for his debut, but a sparring session with heavyweight teammate Nick Gulliver led to a torn MCL in his knee.

“That took about six to eight months before I fully recovered,” Velado said. “I dropped in on John again in April 2015, and we got a plan together. He got me in there with a lot of good wrestler types, including himself. He let me train with Marcus Davis and some other guys to expand my skill set.”

Velado has won three times in NEF, capped by a split decision over Mike Peitersen of Young’s.

“You’re in for a war. Young’s guys, they’re great. They’re all respectful. They train like savages,” Velado said. “Look who he’s training against…Those guys could fight anywhere in the United States and do well. You can’t not get better training against guys like that. You can’t not be a stud.”

Τζάκσον, who said that MMA has lowered his stress level while reminding him that there is nothing else in life he can’t handle, hinted that he is the underdog on paper.

“He went three rounds with Mike Pietersen, and Mike is a tough dude. I know he’s a black belt in jits,»Είπε ο Τζάκσον. “I’m taking a realistic approach. I’m more focused on what I need to do and can’t worry about what he’s going to do. I don’t think he’s going to show me anything that I can’t handle.”

The question, Velado said, is whether or not Jackson’s modesty suggests any level of uncertainty.

“The difference between us is that I know I have jiu-jitsu in my tool box. He doesn’t have anything like that in his tool box that I know of,” Velado said. “He’s going to see what level he’s at in this fight. He’s going to find a way to get past me, or he’s going to take a step back and say is this something I really want to be doing? He definitely has to have confidence if he wants to beat me.”

YOUNG’S & FIRST CLASS MEET IN SECOND TITLE FIGHT AT NEF 25

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

Lewiston, Μέιν (Ιούνιος 28, 2016) – Less than 24-hours after the announcement of the amateur light-heavyweight title fight between Young’s MMA’s Victor Irwin (2-0) and First Class MMA’s Nick Shea (2-0), fight promotion New England Fights (NEF) released a second championship bout between the two gyms at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS.” Αήττητη Rafael “Air Guard” Velado (3-0), Shea’s teammate at First Class MMA, έχει προγραμματιστεί να αντιμετωπίσει Jimmy Τζάκσον (3-2), a teammate of Irwin at Young’s MMA, for the vacant NEF mixed-martial-arts (ΜΜΑ) amateur lightweight title. The title was previously held by Josh Harvey (1-0) of Young’s MMA and vacated last April when he moved up to the professional ranks.

 

“Πρώτα απ 'όλα, I appreciate the opportunity that NEF has given me to show my skills in the cage,” Είπε Velado. “There are other promotions in New England, but nobody puts on a show like NEF. I’ve made it very clear that I am here to fight the toughest guys I can and once again I’m getting my way.”

 

In Velado’s last fight, he took on and defeated Mike Peitersen (3-1). In doing so, Velado handed him the first loss of his career. Peitersen is another teammate of Jimmy Jackson at Young’s MMA.

 

“Leading up to the Mike Peitersen fight, he and I respectfully challenged each other to train hard and bring it,” Velado continued. “I believe that we did that and then some. Now I have another Young’s fighter in front of me and I couldn’t be happier. Jimmy Jackson has been looking good in his last few outings and I believe we are a good match-up. I see a trend of BJJ players who come over into MMA and think they are just going to jits their way through every fight. I can assure you that I am not that guy and you will see a constant evolution of skills in my fights.”

 

Jackson will have the opportunity to gain a measure of revenge for his team against Velado. After starting his amateur career at 1-2, Jackson has won his last two in a row, including a submission victory over Kris Welch (0-1) στο “NEF 16” πέρυσι.

 

“Fighting Raf is a huge opportunity for me – an opportunity I am very grateful for,” said Jackson when reached for comment. “This is the time for me to show how far I’ve come and how much time and work Chris Young (Young’s MMA head coach) and the rest of the coaching staff and team have put into making me the best version of myself. Το κάνω αυτό για τους, my team and my family.”

 

“I am pumped to be fighting alongside my First Class MMA brothers and sisters in September and I will be so proud to hand that 155 NEF Championship belt to John Raio (First Class MMA head coach) and tell him, ‘There’s more where that came from,'” said Velado in closing. “As far as ‘Heroes & Villains,’ I believe every man or woman who steps in that cage is a hero, but you have to have a little villain inside you to do what’s necessary to win.”

 

επόμενη εκδήλωση της Νέας Αγγλίας Αγώνες », "NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS,” takes place on Saturday, Σεπτέμβριος 10, 2016 στο Androscoggin Τράπεζα Colisée σε Lewiston, Μέιν.

JOHN Raio ευδοκιμεί σε συνταξιοδότηση με μια πρώτη ομάδα ΚΑΤΗΓΟΡΙΑΣ

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

Lewiston, Μέιν (Σεπτέμβριος 3, 2015) - Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF), Νούμερο ένα περιφερειακή προώθηση αγώνα της Αμερικής, θα πραγματοποιήσει δέκατου ένατου μικτές πολεμικές τέχνες-του (ΜΜΑ) συμβάν, “NEF XIX,” Σάββατο, Σεπτέμβριος 12, 2015 στο Androscoggin Τράπεζα Colisée σε Lewiston, Μέιν. The fight card will feature three members of First Class MMA in action that night. Hannah Sparrell (0-0), Rafael Velado (0-0) και Nick Shea (1-0) από την Brunswick, Maine-based gym. Πρόσφατα, First Class ΜΜΑ ιδρυτής και προπονητής Γιάννης “First Class” Ακτίνα εντάχθηκε NEF συνιδιοκτήτης και προξενητής Ματ Peterson ως φιλοξενούμενος στο NEF Podcast.

 

Τον περασμένο Ιούνιο, 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, συμπεριλαμβανομένης της προετοιμασίας Sparrell, Velado και Shea για τις επερχόμενες περιόδους τους.

 

“Μπορώ σίγουρα να βάλετε πολύ περισσότερο χρόνο σε μαχητές μου, καθώς και η οικογένειά μου,” Είπε ο Ray. “Οι μαχητές, I can put a lot more time into them because it’s not all about me. When you’re fighting, όταν είστε κατάρτισης για έναν αγώνα, δεν έχει σημασία πόσο πολύ την προσπάθειά σας να επικεντρωθεί σε Nick Shea ή Nick Gully ή Hannah Sparrell ή Ραφαήλ ή σε οποιοδήποτε από τους μαχητές μας, δεν μπορείτε πραγματικά να βάλει 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, την οικογένειά σας και τα παιδιά σας.”

 

Από τη γέννηση του NEF στις αρχές του 2012, και η επακόλουθη έκρηξη της δημοτικότητας του αθλήματος στην πολιτεία, πολλά νέα γυμναστήρια έχουν ξεφυτρώσει τα τελευταία χρόνια, including First Class MMA. Raio enjoys, περισσότερο από οτιδήποτε άλλο, η σφιχτοδεμένη, οικογενειακή ατμόσφαιρα που έχει αναπτυχθεί στις εγκαταστάσεις του από τότε που άνοιξε το γυμναστήριο.

 

“Το μεγαλύτερο πράγμα που μου αρέσει το γυμναστήριο μας, Μου αρέσει να και είναι ένα μέρος της, είναι ότι υπάρχει μια πολύ ταπεινή ομάδα φοιτητών και των εκπαιδευτών,” 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.”

 

Ο “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 κερδίσει τη φήμη της με σεβασμό, αριστοκρατικό, επαγγελματίας, αρεστός, hence the pun in his nickname. Those same qualities have carried over to the students of First Class MMA.

 

“Προσπαθώ να αντιμετωπίζουν ισότιμα ​​όλους,” Είπε ο Ray. “I try to treat everyone respectfully. I think a lot of those guys (στο γυμναστήριο), με τη σειρά τους, treat each other respectfully. If I ever have an issue with a student, και αν δεν ενεργεί με σεβασμό στους εκπαιδευτές ή τους άλλους μαθητές, I’ll pull them aside and if they have to leave then they have to leave. That’s part of life… Γυμναστήριο μας ελκύει, για ΚΑΠΟΙΟ λογο, οι άνθρωποι που είναι απλά καλοί άνθρωποι.”

 

Με όλο και περισσότερους νέους φοιτητές που προέρχονται μέσα από την πόρτα του γυμναστηρίου του, 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.

 

“Μετά την τελευταία παράσταση (NEF XVIII), όταν είδα Nick (Gulliver, 1-0) έχουν το χέρι του έθεσε και Rob (Robinson, 1-0), Ήμουν τόσο χαρούμενος για εκείνους τους τύπους,” 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), Είπα «αν πάμε 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.”

Μέιν Νοκ-άουτ KING πάλι στο κλουβί ενάντια στους μαύρους ζώνη στη NEF XIX

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

Lewiston, Μέιν (Ιούλιος 23, 2015) - Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF), Νούμερο ένα περιφερειακή προώθηση αγώνα της Αμερικής, θα πραγματοποιήσει δέκατου ένατου μικτές πολεμικές τέχνες-του (ΜΜΑ) συμβάν, “NEF XIX,” Σάββατο, Σεπτέμβριος 12, 2015 στο Androscoggin Τράπεζα Colisée σε Lewiston, Μέιν. Νωρίτερα σήμερα, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur lightweight bout to the fight card. Cory Δίκη (1-1) έχει προγραμματιστεί να αντιμετωπίσει το Κάνει το ντεμπούτο του Rafael Velado (0-0) σε βάρος αγώνα 155-λιβρών.

 

Δίκη έρχεται από μια τεράστια νίκη σε “NEF XVIII” τον περασμένο μήνα. He knocked out Corey Hinkley (2-4) in just seven seconds of the first round. In doing so, Trial became the new holder of the NEF fastest knockout record. The finish was so brutal that Hinkley was taken from the cage on a stretcher by paramedics. Trial trains under coach Josh Parker at Ruthless MMA & Πυγμαχία σε Benton, Μέιν. He is confident that he will repeat his knockout performance on Velado at “NEF XIX.”

 

“Είμαι ενθουσιασμένος για να πάρει πίσω στο κλουβί,” είπε Δίκη. “Having a seven second knockout and breaking the NEF record was nice, αλλά αυτό δεν ήταν αρκετό. I’ve been busting my ass in the gym with the best coach and I’m ready for anything – αλλά είναι αναπόφευκτο. Αυτός ο αγώνας θα τελειώσει με τον ίδιο τρόπο που η τελευταία έκανε.”

 

Ενώ Rafael Velado μπορεί να κάνει το επίσημο ντεμπούτο του ΜΜΑ “NEF XIX,” he is no stranger to combat sports. Velado is an accomplished practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). Training in the sport since 2005, Velado κέρδισε τη μαύρη ζώνη του 2012 από την παγκοσμίου φήμης μύθο BJJ, και UFC βετεράνος, Joe Moreira. He was raised in Skowhegan, Maine and now resides in neighboring Norridgewock. Velado represents John Raio’s First Class Fitness & ΜΜΑ του Brunswick, Μέιν.

 

“Ήταν δύσκολο να βρουν έναν ερασιτέχνη που θα αναλάβει ένα αγώνα εναντίον BJJ μαύρη ζώνη, so I decided to call out the guy who is riding high from an impressive victory,” Είπε Velado. “Είμαι σίγουρος ότι αισθάνεται ασταμάτητη τώρα, και ότι θα πρέπει να κάνουν αυτό το πολύ ενδιαφέρον αγώνα. I don’t know if I would call it a classic striker versus grappler match-up, αλλά αν αυτό είναι το πώς είναι χρεώνονται, Δεν είμαι τρελός σε αυτό.”

 

Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες’ επόμενη εκδήλωση, “NEF XIX,” λαμβάνει χώρα σε Σάββατο, Σεπτέμβριος 12, 2015 στο Androscoggin Τράπεζα Colisée σε Lewiston, Μέιν.
