BELLATOR VETERANS SET TO SQUARE OFF IN LEWISTON

 

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Lewiston, Maine (Mei 1, 2017) – Between them they have a dozen fights in the Bellator cage. Nou, they have signed to face each other in the New England Fights (NEF) hexagon. Ray “Alle Besigheid” Wood (8-3) sal voldoen Alexandre “Butt” Bezerra (19-5) in die belangrikste gebeurtenis van “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” Die geleentheid, which will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts and professional boxing bouts, is scheduled to take place on Saturday, Junie 17, 2017 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine.

 

This would be a main card fight on any nationally-televised event,” gesê NEF mede-eienaar en promotor Nick DiSalvo. “It doesn’t get any bigger or better than this on the regional level. This is the kind of fight we love to deliver to the NEF fans.

 

Wood grew up in Bucksport, Maine and became a top MMA prospect after joining Young’s MMA in Bangor. He was victorious in ten of his first eleven fights over the course of his amateur and early professional careers. Wood’s sole loss during that impressive run came when he moved up to the lightweight division to face a larger Shane Manley (3-3).

 

It took Wood just over a minute to submit Lenny Wheeler (9-5) by “NEF 8.” Deur dit te doen, Wood became the first NEF Featherweight Champion. He went on to successfully defend the title against tough Brazilian prospect Gabriel Baino (6-2) with a second-round TKO. Months later, Wood would drop the title to Anthony Morrison (20-11) via fifth-round submission.

 

The next few years would see Wood travel away from Maine to settle first in South Carolina and later Texas. Since leaving Maine, he has been training at some of the top gyms in all of mixed martial arts with world-class athletes, and he has fought for national promotion Bellator three times. Wood’s Bellator debut saw him finish Chris Jones (10-5) in die eerste ronde. He is now looking to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to AJ McKee, Jr. (8-0) by Bellator 166 late last year. The fight with Bezerra will be Wood’s first on Maine soil since February 2015.

 

I’m excited to fight in front of the New England fans once again,” said Wood when reached for comment at his home in Amarillo, Texas. “It’s been way too long. It’s time to get back to where all my success began. The last time I fought in Maine, I left with a loss, and I have no easy task in front of me this time. Alexandre is no joke, and has fought some of the best in the world, and with me coming off back-to-back losses, I have no choice but to have my hand raised by the end of three rounds. I have never lost three straight in anything.

 

A native of Sao Paolo, Brasilië, Alexandre Bezerra now lives and trains in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where he is a member of Daddis Fight Camps. Bezerra holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and he is also a teacher of the sport.

 

Bezerra has nine Bellator bouts under his belt. He competed in both the Season Six and Season Eight featherweight tournaments, making it past the quarterfinal rounds but losing in the semifinals each time. Mees onlangs, Bezerra competed for national promotion Titan Fighting Championships in late 2016. Like Wood, Bezerra is looking to bounce back from a loss.
I am very excited to compete for NEF, they are a fantastic organization and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity,” said Bezerra. “My opponent is a tough, up-and-coming prospect, and this should be a great fight. Both of us are looking to finish fights, so the fans are in for a treat!”

 

Everyone in Maine and New England fight sports knows the talent that is Ray Wood,” verklaar NEF mede-eienaar en Match Matt Peterson. “He cut his teeth in NEF and after going on to compete in several high-profile Bellator fights, he’s coming back home to where it all began for him. Sy teenstander, a native of Brazil, is a seasoned veteran that has a black belt in jiu-jitsu. Fans can expect to see the highest level of mixed martial arts skill on display in this blockbuster main event.

A NEW NEF LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION CROWNED IN LEWISTON

Lewiston, Maine (April 30, 2017) – Again, blood flowed from the head of Jon Lemke. Weer, “The” Ryan Sanders had his hand raised in victory.

Hierdie keer, egter, there was zero controversy or conjecture about the finish, and that authoritative ending made Sanders an NEF mixed martial arts champion for the first time.

Sanders used a guillotine choke to stop Lemke just 22 seconds into the second round and win the vacant New England Fights lightweight championship at “NEF 28: Invincible,” held Saterdag aand by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston.

Their previous non-title confrontation in November 2016 ended with Lemke unable to continue due to an accidental cut. Sanders earned the victory by winning the first two rounds on all three judges’ scorecards.

In the title-bout rematch, Sanders likely was behind on those cards after Lemke used a late takedown to punctuate what had been a back-and-forth, stand-up opening session.

“He hit me right in the … gut, and it … hurt,'Sê Sanders, peppering the statement with the smile and the expletives that are his calling card. “I knew the first round was going to tough, because he’s a killer, and I tend to be a slow starter.”

Sanders (14-8) wasted no time getting Lemke (6-8) to the mat and earning the tap in round two. It was his seventh win in nine NEF appearances.

The Bangor-based battler dedicated the win to his wife, Vanessa, who was in the cage to put the belt around her husband’s waist. The couple celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary Vrydag.

“She saved my life,'Sê Sanders. “She’s the reason I’m here, the reason I fight, and the reason I’m a champion.”

In die mede-hoofren, Josh Harvey (4-0) stayed undefeated with a brutal, 50-second knockout of Derek Shorey.

Shorey (4-9) returned to the NEF cage to raise funds for four of his children and their mother, who lost their home in a recent New Hampshire apartment fire.

“He’s a great guy and a super warrior. I’m glad he stepped up to fight,'Het Harvey gesê. “Next I’d like to fight someone else who’s undefeated.”

Matt Denning of Auburn ended his four-fight winless streak with authority. “Ken Doll” made his long-awaited return to the NEF cage with a first-round verdict over Josh Parker.

Denning used his grappling strength to win the grudge match. He rallied from an early takedown, dominated on the ground, and used a guillotine to put it away in the fourth minute.

“It feels good to win. I finally got one,” Denning said. “I’m at 145 pond, which is where I belong.”

Bellator veteran Walter Smith-Cotito improved his NEF record to 3-0, and he has done it against eye-opening opposition. On the heels of past wins over Bruce Boyington and Elias Leland, Smith-Cotito defeated Andre Belcarris via rear naked choke at 2:05 van die tweede ronde. Belcarris was making his pro debut after 34 amateur aanvalle.

Dominic Jones made a triumphant pro debut, taking out NEF mainstay Tollison Lewis with only 30 seconds remaining in the first round. Jones won all his amateur fights by decision, but be used his wrestling acumen to dominate his taller opponent on the ground and earn the TKO.

First-round stoppages also were the rule in the amateur portion of the card, with all four fights ending in under two minutes.

The most controversial result involved Caleb “Dr. Feelgood ”Austin, an 18-year-old senior out of Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, taking on James Ploss of Kaze Dojo in Lancester, New Hampshire. It was the cage debut for both combatants.

Ploss was the aggressor from the opening bell and immediately took the action to the mat. That also played to the strengths of Austin, who amassed an astonishing 208-11 record while winning two state championships as a schoolboy wrestlers.

At about the 30-second mark, Ploss applied a guillotine and forced a tap from Austin. Unfortunately for Ploss, the referee did not see Austin tap and he allowed the fight to continue after Ploss had released the hold.

Austin took full advantage of the reprieve and showed power in both his stand-up and striking game, eventually earning a TKO in the flyweight fracas at the 1:57 merk.

Josh “Basketball” Jones left no doubt whatsoever in his debut victory over Sean Worcester (0-3).

Jones, 29, who was drafted by the NBA Development League before embarking on a professional career in Germany and Canada, went on the early attack with looping haymakers. He dropped Worcester to the canvas and ended the middleweight scrap with a barrage of haymakers after only 20 sekondes.

Jacob Deppmeyer evened his ledger in the amateur hexagon at 1-1 with a 77-second dismissal of Glenn Kasabian at a catch weight of 140. The wins by Dominic and Josh Jones as well as Dettmeyer made First Class MMA a perfect 3-0 on the evening.

Mason Travers joined the parade of fighters making a successful amateur debut with his win over Nigel Moye at 1:10 van die opening strofe.

Many big announcements were made concerning “NEF 29: Stars and Stripes,” which will be held Saterdag, Junie 17 at Androscoggin Bank Colisee. The main event will feature the Maine homecoming of Ray “All Business” Wood. Former NEF bantamweight champion Paul Gorman will also be featured.

NEF XVI herhaling: KING behou; WOOD onttroon; Young se MMA GOES 8-1

Tyler King after retaining the Heavyweight Title on Saturday night

Lewiston, Maine (Februarie 9, 2015) -Nuwe Engeland Fights’ (NEF) nuutste gemengde martial arts- (Plaasmoorde) gebeurtenis "NEF XVI,"Plaasgevind het Saterdag aand by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine. With temperatures dropping to below zero, en die bedreiging van 'n storm dreig oor die gebied, meer as 2,500 fight fans braved the elements to pack the state’s most venerable fight venue. The crowd was treated to a total of 24 aksiebelaaide gevegte, insluitend vier professionele Bouts, waarvan twee was vir NEF MMA titel gordels.

 

Die belangrikste gebeurtenis van die aand gesien het Anthony “Cheesesteak” Morrison (17-9) ontsetel Ray “Alle Besigheid” Wood (5-1) to become the new NEF MMA Featherweight Champion. The loss spoiled what was expected to be a triumphant return home for Wood. The native of Bucksport, Maine het na Suid-Carolina verhuis in 2014 sy doel van die kompetisie in die Ultimate Fighting Championship na te streef (UFC). Morrison was considered Wood’s toughest challenge to date, nadat hy deelgeneem aan die nasionale stadium in Bellator en World Extreme Cage Fighting (WEC). Steeds, Wood is erken as die gunsteling gaan in die geveg Saterdag nag. Morrison was dominant for most of the fight, uit-stoei Wood voor die indiening van hom met 'n guillotine verstik in die vyfde ronde van die band te vang.

 

The loss was also the sole blemish on what was otherwise a perfect night for Young’s MMA. Die Bangor, Maine-gebaseerde span het hul vorige agt aanvalle in die loop van die aand gewen, an amazing feat considering that the Young’s corners were often running back and forth from the cage to the locker room to prepare their fighters for bouts that were mere moments apart from each other. Of particular note, die opening stryd van die kaart te sien Josh Harvey (3-1) van Young se skeur deur top-tien-posisie amateur veergewigtitel Kaleb Hall (5-2) met 'n tegniese uitklophou (WIE) victory a mere 36-seconds into the first round. Later, Young se nuutste lid van die span, Carl Langston (4-7), het sy eerste oorwinning ooit op Maine grond met 'n besluit oor Sheldon Bang (1-2) in 'n herontmoeting van 'n bout Langston op verloor het “NEF XIII” verlede jaar.

 

Marcus Davis se span Ierse het 2-0 op die aand met Ricky Dexter(2-0) pluk aan die tweede oorwinning van sy loopbaan en amateur Rick Matthews (1-1) getting his first victory. 44-year old Matthews won a decision over Emmett Huber (0-1) terwyl Dexter behaal 'n groot uitklophou op Cory verhoor (0-1) in die tweede ronde, stuur verhoor na 'n nabygeleë hospitaal in die proses.

 

Hoogtepunt-reel uitklophoue was par vir die kursus by “NEF XVI.” Among them, UFC, Bellator en Strikeforce veteraan Nah-Shon “Die Rock-n-Rolla” Burrell (11-5) reeds bebloede Ryan Hodge(6-10) before knocking him out in the first round of their professional middleweight contest. The most-talked-about knockout of the evening, egter, na Kaleb Farrington (2-0) Span New England Verenigde (NUWE) wat val Brandon “Die Enigma” Russell (0-1) with a single right hand just 8-seconds into the first round. The knockout broke the all-time record of 11-seconds previously set by Buck “Kneukels” Pineau (7-4) in April 2012.

 

Meer geskiedenis gemaak by “NEF XVI” wanneer 'n pa en nie een, but two of his sons competed on the same MMA card. Following losses by his sons, Sheldon en Steve Bang (3-3), Dr. Steve Bang(1-0), 'n lid van Sentraal Maine Brasiliaanse Jiu Jitsu- (CMBJJ), entered the NEF MMA cage to a loud ovation from the crowd. The bariatric surgeon wasted little time in going to work on his opponent, Matthew Hanning (0-1), neem hom af en dreun 'n oorwinning via skeidsregter-oponthoud.

 

NFL en UFC Die uiteindelike Fighter veteraan Tyler King (8-2) in die mede-hoofren van die nag suksesvol verdedig die NEF MMA swaargewigtitel, verslaan Terry “Die Polar Bear” Blackburn (5-3). King stormed into the arena with a determined fire in his eyes. Mid-way through the first round, King het Blackburn af na die mat en gewerk om 'n Kimura voorlegging, forcing Blackburn to tap-out. During his post-fight victory interview in the cage, Koning het 'n keur van die swaargewigte en lig-swaargewigte insluitend plaaslike name soos Eric Bedard (6-5), sowel as nasionale sterre soos Bellator se Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal (14-4).

 

Twee aanvalle aangekondig vir NEF se volgende MMA geval, “NEF Sewentien,” geskeduleer vir April 11, 2015 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

Parker has a long history in the NEF MMA cage, met sewe keer meegeding vir die stryd bevordering tussen Februarie 2012 en November 2013. Meer onlangs, Parker het uit die MMA hok gebly om te fokus op sy loopbaan as 'n professionele bokser, sowel as die bou van sy gym.

 

Parker het die gimnasium in Benton, Maine as a way of giving back to the fight community. He sees Ruthless MMA & Boxing as a means to introduce young athletes from the area to the burgeoning world of combat sports and provide them with opportunities to compete. That includes his own sons.

 

“Ek het gedink oor die begin van my eie gym vir 'n rukkie nou,” het Parker gesê. “My eerste geveg was byna tien jaar gelede toe my seun was drie. Now he’s 13 en gereed om sy eie stryd loopbaan te begin, en ek het net 'n ander seun. I knew it was time to build my boys a place where they can train whenever they want to. This is a fight family.

 

Parker lei sy eerste protégé, Alex Johnson (1-1), in the fall of 2014. Johnson is coming off a win over Rick Matthews (0-1) in 'n wrede, back-en-weer slugfest by “NEF XV” die afgelope November. The bout was considered by many to be the “Stryd van die nag” van die kaart.

“Ek het nog altyd gedroom om te kan iemand te pons in die gesig en nie tronk toe gaan, want dit,” Verhoor verklaar. “Nou dat ek die geleentheid, beter jy glo iemand se seerkry.”

 

“Ons styl is eenvoudig, ons graag op te staan ​​en bang,” Parker elaborated. “Wanneer ons Spar, ons graag om te sien wie kan die swaarste getref. Mike Tyson said it best ‘everybody’s got a plan- totdat hulle kry treffer.’ We want to give the fans exciting fights. We’re looking for knockouts.

 

“Die ouens by Hartelose kom uit alle vlakke van die lewe- of dit straat veg of hok te veg hulle almal het met ervaring gooi vuiste. They each approached me after hearing I was building a gym. Ons waardes is eenvoudig- wanneer jy kom in jou ego laat by die deur. When you’re a part of the Ruthless team, jy verwag om jouself te voer as 'n professionele- sportmangees en respek is 'n moet.”

 

Bryant ORICK (3-5) is another Ruthless team member scheduled to make his NEF MMA debut this Saturday night. It will not, egter, be his first time in the cage. Orick, 'n boorling van Ohio leef nou in Clinton, Maine, has competed in the sport for five years. He is a veteran of eight bouts, veg in die Buckeye State, Kansas en Indiana, to name a few states. Orick hopes to find a home and success in NEF alongside his Ruthless MMA & Boxing teammates. Op “NEF XVI” hierdie naweek, ORICK sal het sy werk uitgeknip vir hom met 'n onoorwonne Fred Lear (2-0) van Young se MMA.

 

“Ek kom uit 'n naam te maak vir myself op NEF,” said Orick. “Ek is goed-afgeronde en gaan op 'n show te sit. I train hard every day, het 'n groot afrigter en spanmaats. Nothing will surprise me in my upcoming bout.

 

” Om 'n afrigter het my geleer om dit te vertraag en bring dit terug na die basiese beginsels,” Parker het gesê. “Veg regtig is eenvoudig, klop die ander man uit en jy wen. I demand 100% uit my vegters, en Ek gee hulle 100% terug. Fighting is not a hobby, dit is 'n leefstyl.”

The event is scheduled to originate from the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. The show will mark the three-year anniversary of the company’s inception. NEF executives announced today that they were expecting one of the largest crowds ever for the wildly-popular fight promotion’s event.

 

“Ons Februarie gebeure het altyd ons vlagskip,” gesê NEF mede-eienaar en promotor Nick DiSalvo. “Tesame met die feit dat hierdie kaart is gelaai met UFC, Bellator, NFL veterane, twee titel gevegte, en die terugkeer van Ray Wood (5-0), dit is geen verrassing dat kaartjieverkope is aan die gang om die manier waarop hulle het al baie.”

 

Inderdaad, ticket sales have been at an all-time high for this event. It is not unusual for the fight promotion to sell out their floor seats for any given show. The sell-out, egter, has always come on fight night. The floor seats for “NEF XVI” verkoop 'n volledige 17 days prior to the event. NEF executives give partial credit for the quick sales to the addition of complimentary waitress drink service for all cage-side ticketholders. They did not confirm whether or not the promotion was considering adding more floor seats for the event.

 

As DiSalvo aangedui, ondersteuners is clamoring vir die terugkeer van Ray “Alle Besigheid” Wood, wat die NEF MMA veergewigtitel sal verdedig teen Bellator en World Extreme Cage Fighting (WEC) veteraanAnthony “Cheesesteak” Morrison (16-9). This will be Wood’s first homecoming after moving from Maine to South Carolina in late-2014.

 

“Ek is opgewonde vir hierdie stryd,” said Wood when reached for comment. “Ek het absoluut niks om te verloor. Anthony Morrison has fought some of the best fighters in the world and I have an opportunity to make a statement with this fight. I improve my skills each time I step in the cage and I know that this showing will be no exception. I have respect for Anthony and where he’s been in this sport and I am honored to have the opportunity to fight him.

 

Wood se spanmaat by Young se MMA, Fred Lear (2-0), sal verskyn op die amateur gedeelte van die kaart in 'n catchweight bout teen Bryant Orrick (3-5) from Ruthless MMA and Boxing. The fight will be contested at 140-pounds.

 

“Hierdie mense stoot my 'n beter vegter te wees, student, en persoon,” gesê Lear van sy spanmaats en afrigters by Young se MMA in Bangor, Maine. “Ek is dankbaar vir hul teenwoordigheid in my lewe, dit is iets wat ek vir ewig sal koester. Ek voel geëerd om te veg vir Young se MMA.”

Soek nie buite sy eie stryd, Lear wys drie opwindende matchups sy spanmaats Josh Harvey (2-1), Mike Pietersen (1-0) en Aaron Lacey (4-1) sal betwis teen lede van die Choi Instituut van Portland, Maine.

 

“Wat gelei het tot 'NEF XVI,’ Ek kan nie help nie, maar beklemtoon ons matchups met Choi se,” Lear voortgegaan. “Nick Spencer [Lacey se teenstander (7-4)] is gevaarlik oral, Henry Clark [Pietersen se teenstander (1-0)] kom af van 'n indrukwekkende debuut, en ek het bekend Kaleb[Hall – Harvey se teenstander (5-1)] sedert hoërskool en daar is geen twyfel oor sy durf en talent. Die atmosfeer by die Colisee sal opwindende wees as ses hoë-kaliber vegters kyk hul punt te verlaat.”

 

Hall en Harvey gestel om die show te open met 'n veergewig bout by 7:00 pm sharp. Hall has competed on six previous NEF MMA events, en hy het beslis opgelet 'n verhoogde opgewondenheid van die ondersteuners wat lei na “NEF XVI.”

 

“Die afwagting is op 'n alle tye hoog as gevolg van al die goeie wedstryd ups op die kaart,” noted Hall. “Op 7 Februarie, Ek verwag dit die mees opwindende nag te wees nie.”

 

Na geveg vir kleiner bevorderings in die verlede, Harvey is clear that the size of the crowd does not matter to him. He will bring his A-game to the cage whether the fight be under the big lights in a world-famous arena like the Androscoggin Bank Colisee or held in a tiny, swak beligte kamer met 'n paar stoele opgestel om 'n hok.

 

Personally it doesn’t matter who or how many people are watching,” stated Harvey. “Ek gaan op 'n show of daar te sit 20 people or 20,000. I love to entertain. After Caleb hooks on to me he’ll know he’s been in a fight.

 

Jason Lachance (0-1) van MMA Athletix in Bath, Maine is geskeduleer om te voldoen aan Steven Bang (3-2) Sentraal Maine Brasiliaanse Jiu Jitsu-in Auburn, Maine by “NEF XVI.” Lachance credits the level of talent on the NEF roster with bringing in large crowds like the crowd expected on Februarie 7.

 

“NEF het 'n baie talent op hierdie nag van gevegte, soos hulle altyd doen,” gesê Lachance. “Ek verwag niks minder as 'n opwindende aand vir die ondersteuners. The support from our fans means everything, en my mede-vegters en ek kom gereed om af te gooi en stuur almal huis met nog meer afwagting vir die volgende byeenkoms.
