This would be a main card fight on any nationally-televised event,” said NEF co-owner and 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) nan “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) nan premye tou an. He is now looking to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to AJ McKee, Jr. (8-0) nan la ap 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, Brezil, 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. Pi resamman, 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,” deklare nef ko-pwopriyetè ak promoteur 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.

A NEW NEF LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION CROWNED IN LEWISTON

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

Fwa sa a,, sepandan, 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: Envensibl,” held Samdi swa nan Androscoggin Bank Colisee la nan 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 Vandredi.

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

Nan evènman an ko-prensipal, 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 liv, 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 nan wonn nan dezyèm. Belcarris was making his pro debut after 34 epizod amatè.

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 make.

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 segonn.

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 a kouple an ouvèti.

Many big announcements were made concerning “NEF 29: Stars and Stripes,” which will be held Samdi, Jen 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.

The loss was also the sole blemish on what was otherwise a perfect night for Young’s MMA. The Bangor, Ekip Maine ki baze sou te genyen uit epizod anvan yo sou kou a nan aswè a, 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, batay la ouvèti ki nan yon kat la chin an tap Josh Harvey (3-1) nan chire Young a nan dis tèt--klase amatè plum Kalèb Hall (5-2) ak yon pentch teknik (KI MOUN KI) victory a mere 36-seconds into the first round.

The most-talked-about knockout of the evening, sepandan, te ale nan Kalèb FARRINGTON (2-0) Ekip New England United (NEW) ki moun ki tonbe Brandon “Enigm a” 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 “Knuckles” Pineau (7-4) nan mwa avril 2012.

 

Plis istwa te fèt nan “Nef XVI” lè yon papa l 'ak pa gen yon sèl, but two of his sons competed on the same MMA card. Following losses by his sons, Sheldon ak Steve Bang (3-3), Dr. Steve Bang(1-0), yon manm nan Central Maine brezilyen jyu-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, Matye Hanning (0-1), pran l 'desann ak bate soti yon viktwa via abit-estopaj.

 

NFL ak ch Ultim konba a veteran Tyler wa (8-2) avèk siksè defann Tit la nef mma lour nan evènman an ko-prensipal nan mitan lannwit lan, bat Terry “Polè Bear a” Blackburn (5-3). King stormed into the arena with a determined fire in his eyes. Mid-way through the first round, Wa pran blackburn desann nan kabann lan ak travay yon soumisyon Kimura, forcing Blackburn to tap-out. During his post-fight victory interview in the cage, Wa rele yon touye nan heavyweights ak limyè-heavyweights ki gen ladan non lokal tankou Eric Bedard (6-5), kòm byen ke zetwal nasyonal tankou Muhammad la ap la “Wa Mo” Lawal (14-4).

Destriktè pi nouvo an KONBAT EKIP NOISE FÈ MAINE'S nan kalòj la mma

Lewiston, Maine (Fevriye 3, 2015) -Nouvo England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, prezante pwochen melanje-masyal arts-li yo (Mma) evènman sa a Samdi night at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine. The fight card, ki gen tit “Nef XVI,” ap prezante de manm nan dernye ekip batay Maine nan, San fwa ni lwa mma & Boksè, nan epizod amatè.

 

San fwa ni lwa mma & Boksè te fonde an 2014 by veteran fighter Josh Parker (4-8). Parker has a long history in the NEF MMA cage, li te gen konpetisyon sèt fwa pou pwomosyon nan batay ant fevriye 2012 ak novanm 2013. Plis dènyèman, Parker te rete soti nan kalòj la mma yo konsantre sou karyè li kòm yon boxer pwofesyonèl, menm jan tou bilding jimnastik li.

 

Parker louvri jimnastik la nan 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.

 

“Mwen te panse sou kòmanse pwòp mwen jimnastik pou yon ti tan kounye a,” Di Parker. “Batay premye mwen se te prèske dis ane de sa lè pitit gason m 'te twa. Now he’s 13 ak pare yo kòmanse pwòp karyè batay l ', ak mwen jis te gen yon lòt pitit gason. 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 entwodwi premye protégé l ', Alex Johnson (1-1), in the fall of 2014. Johnson is coming off a win over Rick Matthews (0-1) nan yon brital, do-ak-soti riks a “Nef XV” sa a Novanm sot pase. The bout was considered by many to be the “Goumen nan mitan lannwit lan” nan ki kat.

 

Corey Jijman (0-0), yon lòt nan kandida Parker a, espere ke yo kontinye siksè nan mennen l 'bay San fwa ni lwa mma & Boxing by his teammate Alex Johnson. Trial makes his NEF MMA debut sa a Samdi lannwit nan Lewiston lè li satisfè Ricky Dexter (1-0) Ekip Ilandè nan yon konkou ki lejè.

 

“Mwen te toujou reve pou yo te kapab kout pyen yon moun nan figi a epi yo pa ale nan prizon pou li,” Jijman deklare. “Kounye a ke mwen gen ki opòtinite, ou pi bon kwè yon moun nan ap resevwa fè mal.”

 

“Style nou an se senp, nou renmen kanpe epi bang,” Parker elaborated. “Lè nou SPAR, nou renmen wè ki moun ki ka frape pi di a. Mike Tyson said it best ‘everybody’s got a plan- jiskaske yo jwenn frape.’ We want to give the fans exciting fights. We’re looking for knockouts.

 

“Mesye yo nan San fwa ni lwa soti nan tout mache nan lavi- si li te batay lari oswa kaj batay yo tout vin rive ak eksperyans voye pwen. They each approached me after hearing I was building a gym. Valè nou yo se senp- lè ou vini nan ou kite mwa ou nan pòt la. When you’re a part of the Ruthless team, w ap espere pote tèt ou kòm yon pwofesyonèl- espò ak respè yo se yon dwe.”

 

Bryant Orick (3-5) is another Ruthless team member scheduled to make his NEF MMA debut this Saturday night. It will not, sepandan, be his first time in the cage. Orick, yon natif natal nan Ohio viv kounye a nan Clinton, Maine, has competed in the sport for five years. He is a veteran of eight bouts, goumen nan Buckeye Eta a, Kansas ak Indiana, to name a few states. Orick hopes to find a home and success in NEF alongside his Ruthless MMA & Boxing teammates. Nan “Nef XVI” fen semèn sa a, ORICK ap gen travay li koupe soti pou l 'ak undefeated Fred Lear (2-0) nan mma Young nan.

 

“Mwen vini soti nan fè yon non pou tèt mwen nan nef,” said Orick. “Se mwen menm ki ki byen balanse ak ale nan mete yo sou yon montre. I train hard every day, gen yon gwo antrenè ak koekipye. Nothing will surprise me in my upcoming bout.

 

” Pou ou kab vin gen yon antrenè te moutre m 'yo ralanti li desann, epi pote l' tounen nan Basics yo,” Parker te deklare. “Goumen reyèlman se trè senp, frape nèg la lòt soti epi ou genyen. I demand 100% soti nan avyon de gè m ', ak mwen ba yo 100% tounen. Fighting is not a hobby, li nan yon fòm.”

 

San fwa ni lwa mma & Boksè a sitiye nan Benton, Maine. You can learn more about the team at their Facebook page “San fwa ni lwa mma & Boksè.”

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.

 

“Evènman fevriye nou te toujou bato nou an,” said NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “Makonnen ak lefèt ke se kat sa a ki chaje ak ch, La ap, Veteran NFL, de batay tit, epi retounen nan Ray Wood (5-0), li nan pa gen sipriz ke lavant tikè yo te ale chemen an, yo ve yo te prale.”

 

Vreman vre, 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, sepandan, has always come on fight night. The floor seats for “Nef XVI” yo te vann soti yon plen 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.

 

Kòm DiSalvo endike, fanatik yo reklam pou retounen nan nan Ray “Tout biznis” Wood ki moun ki pral defann Tit la nef mma Plum kont la ap ak Dezyèm ekstrèm Cagefighting (WEC) veteranAnthony “Cheesesteak” Morrison (16-9). This will be Wood’s first homecoming after moving from Maine to South Carolina in late-2014.

 

“Mwen eksite pou sa a batay,” said Wood when reached for comment. “Mwen pa gen absoliman anyen a pèdi. 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.

 

Koekipyèr Wood la nan mma Young nan, Fred Lear (2-0), yo pral tap sou pòsyon nan amatè nan kat la nan yon bout catchweight kont Bryant ORRICK (3-5) from Ruthless MMA and Boxing. The fight will be contested at 140-pounds.

 

“Moun sa yo pouse m 'yo dwe yon pi bon avyon de gè, elèv, ak moun,” di Lear nan kamarad ekip li yo ak antrenè nan mma Young nan nan Bangor, Maine. “Mwen rekonesan pou prezans yo nan lavi m ', li se yon bagay mwen pral trezò pou tout tan. Mwen onore yo dwe goumen pou mma Young nan.”

Pa kap pi lwen pase batay pwòp tèt li, Lear pwen soti twa matchups enteresan koekipye li Josh Harvey (2-1), Mike Pietersen (1-0) ak Arawon Lacey (4-1) pral konteste kont manm nan Enstiti a Choi nan Portland, Maine.

 

“Ki mennen jiska 'XVI nef,’ Mwen pa ka ede men mete aksan sou matchups nou ak Choi a,” Lear kontinye. “Nick Spencer [Opozan Lacey a (7-4)] se danjere toupatou, Henry Clark [Opozan Pietersen a (1-0)] la ap vini sou nan yon premye enpresyonan, epi mwen te li te ye Kalèb[Hall – Opozan Harvey la (5-1)] depi lekòl segondè epi pa gen okenn dout sou gravye l ', li talan. Atmosfè a nan Colisee a pral elèktrizant kòm sis avyon de gè-wo kalib gade yo kite mak yo.”

 

Hall ak Harvey yo mete yo louvri montre nan nan yon bout plum nan 7:00 pm sharp. Hall has competed on six previous NEF MMA events, e li te definitivman remake yon eksitasyon ogmante de fanatik ki mennen nan “Nef XVI.”

 

“Patisipe a se nan yon tan tout segondè paske nan tout UPS yo matche ak bon sou kat la,” noted Hall. “Sou Fevriye 7th, Mwen tann li nan dwe nwit la la pi eksitan ankò.”

 

Èske w gen te goumen pou pi piti pwomosyon nan tan lontan an, 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, mal-limen chanm ak yon chèz kèk mete kanpe otou yon kaj.

 

“Personally it doesn’t matter who or how many people are watching,” stated Harvey. “Mwen pral mete yo sou yon montre si gen 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) soti nan mma Athletix nan Bath, Maine se pwograme al kontre Steven Bang (3-2) nan Central Maine brezilyen jyu-jitsu nan Auburn, Maine nan “Nef XVI.” Lachance credits the level of talent on the NEF roster with bringing in large crowds like the crowd expected on Fevriye 7.

 

“Nef gen yon anpil nan talan sou Jou lannwit sa a nan batay, menm jan yo toujou fè,” di Lachance. “Mwen atann mwen pa gen anyen mwens pase yon jou lannwit enteresan pou fanatik yo. The support from our fans means everything, ak avyon de gè parèy mwen epi mwen vini pare yo voye jete desann epi voye tout moun lakay ou ak menm plis antisipasyon pou evènman an pwochen. God has blessed us with another opportunity to do what we love to do in front of so many.”

 

Billy “Bigfout” Leahy (1-1) pral wè tou aksyon nan “Nef XVI” lè li etap nan kalòj la fè fas a debu endepandan avyon de gèBrandon Lessard (0-0) nan yon bout pwa loud. Leahy got the first win of his MMA career this past September at “Nef XIV” before some 2,000-plus fans at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Kòm sa yo, se li ki abitye avèk santi a ki soti nan fè pou yon masiv, devoran foul moun batay.

 

“Mwen tann yon jou lannwit gwo nan batay,” fi Leahy. “Mwen onore yo dwe sou tankou yon gwo kat. The NEF fans are like no other, epi mwen pa ka tann yo mete yo sou yon montre gwo nan devan nan fanmi m ', zanmi ak fanatik yo.”
