BELLATOR VETERANS SET TO SQUARE OFF IN LEWISTON

 

ZA immediate release: Lewiston, Mejn (Maj 1, 2017) – Between them they have a dozen fights in the Bellator cage. Sada, they have signed to face each other in the New England Fights (NEF) hexagon. Zrak “Sve Business” Drva (8-3) će se sastati Alexandre “Kundak” Bezerra (19-5) u glavnom slučaju “NEF 29: STARS & STRIPES.” Ovaj događaj, which will feature a full slate of mixed-martial-arts and professional boxing bouts, is scheduled to take place on Saturday, Jun 17, 2017 na Androscoggin banke Colisee u Lewiston, Mejn.

 

This would be a main card fight on any nationally-televised event,” rekao je NEF suvlasnik i promoter 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) u “NEF 8.In doing so, 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) u prvom krugu. He is now looking to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to AJ McKee, Jr. (8-0) u 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, Teksas. “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, Brazil, 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. Nedavno, 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,” izjavio NEF suvlasnik i provodadžija 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. Njegov protivnik, 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, Mejn (April 30, 2017) – Again, blood flowed from the head of Jon Lemke. Opet, “The” Ryan Sanders had his hand raised in victory.

Ovaj put, međutim, 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: Nepobjediv,” held Subota noć u Androscoggin banke Colisee u 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,” Sanders said, 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 Petak.

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

U co-main event, 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,” Harvey said. “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 funti, 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 drugog kruga. Belcarris was making his pro debut after 34 amaterski borbama.

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 oznaka.

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 sekundi.

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 otvaranja strofa.

The most-talked-about knockout of the evening, međutim, otišao u Caleb Farrington (2-0) Team New England United (NEW) koji je pao Brandon “The 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 “Zglavci” Pineau (7-4) u aprilu 2012.

Steve Bang(1-0), član Centralnog Maine Brazilski Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), entered the NEF MMA cage to a loud ovation from the crowd.

Maine NAJNOVIJE FIGHT TEAM IZRADA buke u MMA CAGE

Lewiston, Mejn (Februar 3, 2015) -Nova England Borbe (NEF), Amerike broj jedan regionalni promociju borbe, predstavlja svoj sljedeći mješovitih borilačkih-arts- (MMA) događaj ove subote night at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Mejn. The fight card, pod nazivom “NEF XVI,” će imati dva člana Maine najnoviji borbi momčad, Nemilosrdni MMA & Boks, u amaterskim borbama.

 

Nemilosrdni MMA & Boks je osnovana 2014 by veteran fighter Josh Parker (4-8). Parker has a long history in the NEF MMA cage, nakon što se takmičili sedam puta za promociju borbu od februara 2012 i novembra 2013. U skorije, Parker je ostao iz MMA kaveza da se fokusira na svoju karijeru kao profesionalni bokser, kao i izgradnju svog teretanu.

 

Parker je otvorio teretanu u 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.

 

“Razmišljao sam o pokretanju svoju teretanu neko vrijeme sada,” Said Parker. “Moja prva borba je bilo prije gotovo deset godina, kada je moj sin bio tri. Now he’s 13 i spreman za početak svoju borbu karijeru, i samo sam imao još jednog sina. 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 predstavio svoj prvi štićenik, Alex Johnson (1-1), in the fall of 2014. Johnson is coming off a win over Rick Matthews (0-1) na brutalan, back-i-nazad na Slugfest “NEF XV” prošlog novembar. The bout was considered by many to be the “Fight of the Night” tog kartice.

 

Corey Pretresno (0-0), još jedan perspektive Parkera, nada da će nastaviti uspjeh doveo do Nemilosrdni MMA & Boxing by his teammate Alex Johnson. Trial makes his NEF MMA debut ove subote noć u Lewiston, kada upoznaje Ricky Dexter (1-0) Team Irish u laganom takmičenju.

 

“Uvijek sam sanjao o mogućnosti da udari nekoga u lice, a ne ide u zatvor za to,” Sudsko je izjavio. “Sada kada imam priliku, bolje ti je da vjerujem da neko stradati.”

 

“Naš stil je jednostavan, volimo stajati i bang,” Parker elaborated. “Kada smo sparingujem, volimo da vidimo ko može najteže pogođeni. Mike Tyson said it best ‘everybody’s got a plan- dok ne udari.’ We want to give the fans exciting fights. We’re looking for knockouts.

 

“Momci na Nemilosrdne dolaze iz svih sfera života- da li je to ulične borbe ili kavez borbe svi su došli sa iskustvom bacanje pesnicama. They each approached me after hearing I was building a gym. Naše vrijednosti su jednostavni- kad dođeš u te ostaviti svoj ego na vratima. When you’re a part of the Ruthless team, ti očekuje da nose sebe kao profesionalni- sportskog duha i poštovanje su imperativ.”

 

Bryant Orick (3-5) is another Ruthless team member scheduled to make his NEF MMA debut this Saturday night. It will not, međutim, be his first time in the cage. Orick, rodom iz Ohio sada žive u Clinton, Mejn, has competed in the sport for five years. He is a veteran of eight bouts, borbama u Buckeye država, Kansas i Indiana, to name a few states. Orick hopes to find a home and success in NEF alongside his Ruthless MMA & Boxing teammates. U “NEF XVI” ovog vikenda, Orick će njegov rad izrezati za njega sa neporažena Fred Lear (2-0) mladih je MMA.

 

“Izlazim napraviti ime za sebe u NEF,” said Orick. “Ja sam dobro zaobljene i da stavi na show. I train hard every day, imaju veliki trener i suigrači. Nothing will surprise me in my upcoming bout.

 

” Biti trener me je naučio da usporiti i dovesti ga natrag u osnove,” Parker je izjavio. “Borba je zaista vrlo jednostavna, knock drugi tip i nećete pobijediti. I demand 100% iz mog boraca, i ja im dam 100% nazad. Fighting is not a hobby, to je način života.”

 

Nemilosrdni MMA & Boks se nalazi u Benton, Mejn. You can learn more about the team at their Facebook page “Nemilosrdni MMA & Boks.”
