NEF RETURNS TO LEWISTON ON SUPER BOWL WEEKEND WITH AN MMA SUPER CARD

Kite yon kòmantè

Lewiston, Maine (Janvye 19, 2018) – The night before the National Football League (NFL) delivers its 2017-2018 season finale, New England Goumen (Nef) will return to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston for the first time in eight months as the fight promotion presents “Nef 32: Super Samdi.” And while New England football fans will have to wait until this Sunday’s AFC championship game to find out whether their beloved Patriots will play in the Super Bowl, area mixed-martial-arts fans learned today which of their favorites will compete at “NEF 32” as promotion executives released the full fight card for the February 3rd evènman.

 

 

Nan evènman an prensipal nan aswè a, Bruce “Joli ti gason” Boyington (14-11) pran sou Taylor Trahan (7-8) at a catchweight of 150-pounds. One of the biggest MMA stars ever to come out of Maine, Boyington will make his return to the NEF cage after a two-year absence that saw him compete on the global stage in places like Russia and New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden. Trahan makes his third trip to Maine to compete. He is coming off a win over Connor Barry (3-2) otòn dènye.

 

 

Arawon “Inplakabl” Lacey (4-1) ap fè fas koupe ak Josh Parker (6-9) nan yon bout plum. Lacey suffered the first loss of his pro career in November when a fight he was arguably on the way to winning was stopped by a doctor due to a cut on Lacey’s head. Parker will look to continue his recent success in the MMA cage after recent victories over Andre Belcarris (0-2) ak Derek Shorey (4-9).

 

 

CJ egyèr (3-0) is out to make history by becoming the first competitor to hold NEF championships simultaneously in multiple weight divisions. Ewer is the reigning NEF Pro Middleweight Champion. Nan “Nef 32,” he has the opportunity to capture the NEF Pro Welterweight Title when he meets Kemran Lachinov (5-2) for the vacant strap.

 

 

Also in professional welterweight action will be Mike “Moustach nan” Hansen (5-8) ak Izayi “Viking a” Erickson (9-7) in a fight billed as “The Berserker vs. The Viking.” Hansen and Erickson have developed a rivalry as coaches of local gyms Berserkers MMA and Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), respektivman.

 

 

Speaking of which, Nate Boucher (2-1), a product of CMBJJ, ak Ryan Burgess (2-2) of Berserkers MMA will headline the amateur portion of the fight card. The flyweights, former teammates on the Mountain Valley High School wrestling squad, have engaged in a recent war of words heading into the bout. The winner will be in line for a shot at the amateur flyweight title later this spring.

 

 

2017 Nef “Rookie pou Ane a” jayda “lil Killah” Bailey (1-0) returns to the cage on February 3rd to meet Florida’s Amanda Gallo (0-1). Bailey made history in November at “NEF 31” by becoming the youngest competitor ever to compete, (and win), nan kalòj la nef. She turned 18, the legal age for competing in MMA in Maine, just a week prior to the event.

Ryan Glover Ready to Rock at NEF February 11th

Kite yon kòmantè

 

Pa: Kalle Oakes

POU PIBLIKASYON IMEDYAT: Lewiston, Maine (Fevriye 9, 2017) – Championships have played a defining role in Ryan Glover’s young life.

That tradition dates back to his junior year at Mountain Valley High School, when Glover achieved the rare double of a team state championship in football and an individual heavyweight wrestling title in the space of three months.

He has continued that tradition as a mixed martial artist, winning the New England Fights light heavyweight amateur strap in only his fourth career foray into the cage.

Growing up in blue-collar Rumford and Mexico also taught Glover that sports aren’t everything, sepandan. That is why his initial title defense against Victor Irwin at “NEF 27: Resurgence” will be his first appearance in the hexagon nan 53 weeks.

Glover-Irwin will headline the amateur segment of an ambitious card Samdi, Fevriye 11 at Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston.

“I was on the road in Florida and Virginia a lot for work all summer and didn’t have time to train with the guys I usually train with,” Glover said. “You have to pay the bills before you can go do this stuff. This is just for fun. I hope (Irwin) knows I’ll be prepared for this one.”

Once the opening bell tolls, Glover (3-1) will have experienced more title bouts in the cage than non-title trials. He also battled in an unforgettable slugfest for the NEF amateur heavyweight belt, one that went to his opponent in that fight by a close but unanimous decision.

His experience is one of the reasons Glover envisions a triumphant return.

“He’s a good athlete, but a young kid who doesn’t have any experience beyond the first round,” Glover said. “When I had my first title fight, that was my first time going into a second round and I was kind of dead in the water at that point.”

Glover won the title with a second round submission via arm lock over Mike Williams.

That rapid ascent through the New England heavyweight ranks so early in his career shouldn’t surprise anyone who has followed Glover’s athletic achievements. He has always been ahead of the usual learning curve.

As a junior on an undefeated 2010 Mountain Valley football powerhouse that featured senior standouts Cam Kaubris and Christian Durland, Glover’s work at linebacker was so impressive that he was named the Lewiston Sun Journal player of the year.

“It helps,” Glover said of his gridiron background. “I’ve seen some of the biggest venues there are when it comes to high school sports.”

State wrestling finals packed in two of Maine’s most hallowed indoor sports facilities – Augusta Civic Center and the old Bangor Auditorium – during Glover’s four years on the mat.

Glover made the jump from the 215-pound class to 285 his sophomore year, even though he tipped the scales far beneath the limit. It was a tradition started by Berserker’s MMA stablemate and fellow NEF star Mike “The Mustache” Hansen about six years earlier.

“Mike was kind of the guinea pig for wrestling against those bigger heavyweights,” Glover said. “That’s the way (Coach) Gary Dolloff sold it to me. I remember him saying that the reason he decided to try that with me was because Mike had been successful at it. And of course he was right, because we got a state championship out of it.”

Senior year didn’t live up to that junior promise. Illness and injury conspired to keep Glover from defending both the football and wrestling titles.

“I was ranked No. 1 going into my senior year and got sick,"Li te di. “That just goes to show that sometimes life gets in the way.”

Glover didn’t follow the college track, opting for the work force instead, and it seemed that his sports days were over.

He tried auto racing for a while, then turned to boxing and MMA training to get back in shape. That led to his debut in February 2015, followed quickly by three more cage fights and an amateur boxing match for good measure.

Only when his work commitments returned to the River Valley this past fall did Glover consider getting back into the cage. Family obligations came first, li te di. And yes, pride in the name he’s made for himself over the years was a factor too.

“It’s definitely a sport where you can get hurt if you try to do it (halfway), especially against an opponent like I’m fighting,” Glover said. “He’s a good athlete. He’s as good at wrestling as I ever was, maybe even better.”

Family and friends in the close-knit, upstart Berserkers camp have Glover better prepared than ever. Ryan’s brother, Matt, also has two NEF appearances to his credit.

“I’ve been rolling with my brother and other guys who are 250 or better,” Glover said. “It’s a game-changer. I feel like I’m lot more of a scrambler than (Irwin) se. And especially where I’ll be cutting weight to get to 205, I’ll have the strength advantage.”

He might enjoy one other distinct advantage: Fan support.

Name recognition has its privileges. Or perhaps it is a case of Glover’s absence making his fans’ hearts grow fonder. In any case, his fight is shaping as one of the most anticipated attractions at NEF 27.

“Right after I took the fight I sold 50 tickets by myself,” Glover said. “When my song comes on, I know the place is going to blow up. Young’s (a Bangor) always brings a big crowd, so we need that support.”

The night will feature both amateur and professional MMA bouts.

 

Headlining the evening will be the semi-finals of the tournament to crown a new professional lightweight champion.

In a highly-anticipated heavyweight bout, Ras Hylton (0-0) pral fè premye pwofesyonèl l 'kont Mike Hansen (5-4).

The amateur card will feature a bout for the light-heavyweight strap as Ryan Glover (3-1) defan kont Victor Irwin (2-0). Glover has held the title since last February. Both Glover and Irwin were Maine state wrestling champions – Glover with MVHS and Irwin with Brewer High School.

 

Also scheduled on the amateur card are no less than three women’s bouts. Angela Young (1-2), who put on multiple “Goumen nan mitan lannwit lan” performances in 2016, returns to face New Hampshire’s Christine Brothwell (0-2). Young’s teammate, Katie Baker (0-0), will make her in-cage debut against another tough competitor from the Granite State in the form of Alex Walker (2-1), pandan y ap Sarah Ziehm makes her debut against Nicole Burgess (0-1).

LIGHT-HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE WILL BE ON THE LINE AT NEF 27

Kite yon kòmantè

Lewiston, Maine (Desanm 22, 2016) -Nouvo England Goumen (Nef) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Fevriye 11, 2017 with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “Nef 27: RESURGENCE.” Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur light-heavyweight title bout to the card. Ryan Glover (3-1) will defend his belt against the challenge of undefeated Victor Irwin (2-0).

 

Glover won the title one year ago at “Nef 21” with a second-round submission of Mike Williams (2-1). He would take the rest of 2016 off from MMA competition to deal with family obligations. Glover was a state wrestling champion out of Mountain Valley High School (MVHS) in Rumford, Maine where he also won a state championship in football. He began training in MMA two years ago, joining Berserkers MMA in Rumford, a team heavy in MVHS alum.

 

“I’m happy to get back in the cage after a long layoff and defend my belt,” said Glover. “I was busy taking care of my family, but now it’s time to remind folks why I am NEF’s best 205er.”

 

Like his opponent, Victor Irwin is also a former Maine state wrestling champion, having won a title while at Brewer High School in Brewer, Maine. Nan 2014, as a freshman, Irwin created a wrestling program at Eastern Maine Community College (EMCC). He went to Nationals that year and achieved All-American status. Irwin is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine. His previous appearances in the NEF cage have been impressive – both first round finishes.

 

“I am really excited to have been given a shot at the title,” said Irwin. “Fighting Ryan will be a great challenge and opportunity for me to improve my skill set.”

MATT GLOVER FINDS FUTURE IN FIGHTING AFTER FOOTBALL

Kite yon kòmantè

Lewiston, Maine (Avril 22, 2016) – During the years 2003-2006, Matt Glover (1-0) te nan player from Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine that you did pa want to end up facing from the other side of the pigskin. Standing over six feet tall and weighing 250-pounds, the nightmarish middle linebacker helped to build Mountain Valley (MV) into a modern day football dynasty by punishing ball carriers for four decorated years and leading MV to two state championships in the process. He bench pressed over 400 pounds in the weight room and was hell on wheels on the field making him a powerful two-way double-threat player on both offense and defense. His reputation is legendary in the River Valley area of Western Maine as a feared and respected athlete.

 

After graduating from Mountain Valley in 2007, Glover left football behind to go to work. He married his longtime girlfriend, Lindsey, and had a son. They bought a home together. Throughout the summer and fall seasons, he traveled the agricultural fair circuit in Maine with his pulling horses, a family tradition he had been brought up in from an early age.

 

“My family has been competing in horse pulling since I was a kid,” Glover explained. “It takes up a lot of time and it keeps my dad young. I get up early every morning to exercise my horse teams before I go into work at night. Between my dad, my wife and I, we have 11 draft horses. We bale our own hay for all of them. I love backing them up to the drag and watching them dig.”

 

But despite the fullness of his life, the call of competition still beckoned to him and left him with a sense of longing. “I would have killed to have had that same feeling again,” Glover recalled. “And then I stepped into the cage.”

 

Nan kòmansman mwa 2015, Matt’s younger brother, Ryan—another Mountain Valley football standout—made his mixed martial arts (Mma) debut at “NEF 16.” Ryan swarmed his opponent in his first fight and stopped him in a blistering 12 segonn. Matt was in attendance that night and found his curiosity piqued at the prospect of competing in a different kind of contact sport.

 

Later in 2015, Ryan competed for the inaugural NEF Amateur Heavyweight Championship. He dropped a decision that night to current title holder, Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (3-1). Apre genyen an, the trash talk quickly escalated between Leahy and members of Berserkers MMA, based out of Rumford and led by head coaches Gary Dolloff and Mike Hansen (3-3). “When Billy Leahy called out all of the guys at Berserkers after he beat my brother, then it was game-on,” recalled Matt.

 

Matt began training closely with members of the Berserkers coaching staff, including Hansen and others, who he credits for his accelerated learning curve in the sport. Anplis de sa, Matt sparred extensively with brother Ryan, who was preparing for a fight of his own on the same night that Matt was scheduled to make his MMA debut. “My brother and I are not like other brothers,” Matt explained. “We go into the gym and beat the hell out of each other and then ride home in the same truck—that’s just how we have always been. Push, push, push—everything is competition with us. From the first one to get to the next hay bale in the hay field to the first one to get to the supper table—it’s just how we operate.”

 

“Matt’s a real competitive person,” his wife, Lindsey, confirmed. “Everything is a competition with him. I knew that cagefighting would feed that competitive hunger that he feels all the time when he’s not pulling his horses.”

 

Matt officially made his MMA debut back in February at “NEF 21: THE IMMORTALS” against durable veteran Gravin Guillen (2-5). Matt exceeded debut expectations by finishing Guillen in just 1:30 of the first round by technical knockout (KI MOUN KI). When the ref cleared the scene, Guillen’s face showed the effects of Glover’s record-breaking exploits in the weight room. Glover’s Rumford fans that were in attendance in heavy numbers that night, voiced their approval in thunderous applause. “At first, I had butterflies,” Glover remembered, “but once I heard all the people cheering, all it did was pump me up. I was ready to fight. Genyen oswa pèdi, I knew they had my back and more.”

 

This weekend, Glover is poised to make his second appearance in the NEF cage when he takes on 6’6” Ras Hylton (1-0) from rival gym, Premye Gwoup mma. Hylton made his debut on the same night as Glover and, like his challenger this weekend, made quick work of his opponent by earning a TKO victory at 1:21 nan premye tou an.

 

Berserkers MMA Founder and Head Coach, Mike Hansen, predicts a dominant night for Glover. “Matt happens to be much stronger than he even appears, which is incredible if you have ever seen him,” Hansen stated. “A guy of his size normally struggles with agility, but Matt doesn’t. He is a super athlete and easy to coach. Matt improves daily and will be a juggernaut in the heavyweight amateur division.

 

“Ras is used to being the bigger guy in all of his fights. That will not be the case on Saturday night. Matt will put his hands on Hylton in a way he’s never been touched before. I don’t see Ras walking away from this fight with his hand held high. He should consider it a win if he can walk away at all when Matt’s done with him.”

 

Going into Samdi lannwit, Glover feels well prepared to continue building on his success in the sport of MMA that he started to create back in February. If his athletic history is any indicator, he should be confident in the future. “I’m ready for this fight,” Glover stated. “In this fight, I’m more relaxed because my brother’s not fighting and I can just focus on my fight… After that first win, I knew I was hooked because there’s no better feeling.”

 

“When people first started speaking to Matt about competing in MMA, I was completely against it 110%,” Lindsey stated. “But after watching him train so hard with the guys in the gym and seeing that he has the same passion for that as he does for his horse pulling, I felt more at ease and decided that if this was something he wanted to pursue, I would support him in any way that I possibly could.

 

“The Glover brothers fighting in MMA is a big thing for Rumford,” Lindsey stated in closing. “Every time it’s getting close to fight night, this town comes alive. No matter where he goes within the sport, this town and his family support him.”

Lewiston, Maine (Fevriye 1, 2016) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe evènman pwochen li yo, "nèf 21: THE IMMORTALS” this Samdi, Fevriye 6, 2016 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisee la nan Lewiston, Maine. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed martial arts (Mma) and professional boxing bouts. Earlier today, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur light heavyweight championship bout to the card. Ryan Glover (2-1) will face Mike Williams (1-0) for the inaugural NEF amateur 205-pound title.

 

Prior to competing in MMA, Ryan Glover was a standout dual sport athlete at Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. A state champion wrestler, Glover made his biggest mark on the football field where he was named the “Football Player of the Year” by the Lewiston Sun Journal in 2010.

 

Ane pase a, Glover faced Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (3-1) for the NEF amateur heavyweight championship. Glover lost a close decision in an exciting, hard-hitting physical contest. Koulye a,, faster and more agile at a lower weight, Glover has his sights set on finally achieving NEF gold.

 

“The weight cut has not been fun, but has gone easier than expected,” stated Glover, when asked about his cut down to 205-pounds. “I feel a lot better as I approach 205 and I think I’ll like fighting at this weight. It’s going to be bittersweet to hold the belt at 205. I lost a close slugfest last June simply because I didn’t stick to our game plan. I dropped the ball that night and you can rest assured that’s not going to happen again. I hope Williams has been training as hard as I have, paske, if so, it’s going to be a fight that no one wants to miss. I’ll see you February 6th and don’t be late—this is a show worth traveling 1000 miles for.”

 

Mike Williams took a collective gasp out of the Androscoggin Bank Colisee when he came out guns blazing in his debut at “NEF XX: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE” last November. Williams, a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) blue belt and member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (CMBJJ) nan Auburn, blasted fellow newcomer Joe Krech (0-1) out of the gate before securing a fight-ending armbar in a spectacular 26-seconds into the first round. The dizzying debut was enough to earn the impressive young Williams a shot at NEF gold.

 

“This fight is just another step and he’s in the way,” stated Williams flatly when asked for comment.

 

“This is another Easter egg of a fight on a star-studded card that is destined to deliver for the whole night,"Deklare nef ko-pwopriyetè ak promoteur Matt Peterson. “When I look at this fight and the skill sets that both Ryan and Mike bring to the cage, I get goose bumps. Both are athletic, agresif, young and hungry guys that want to turn heads when they compete—and will stop at nothing to win. Based on what I’ve witnessed in their fights so far, I don’t see an ounce of quit in either fighter. I can’t wait to watch the way this one goes down on Saturday.”

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. Apre sa, Dernye manm ekip Young nan, Carl Langston (4-7), te resevwa genyen premye l 'tout tan tout tan sou Maine tè avèk yon desizyon sou Sheldon Bang (1-2) nan yon rematch nan yon bout Langston te pèdi nan “Nef XIII” ane pase a.

 

Ekip Ilandè Marcus Davis nan ale 2-0 sou nwit la la ak Ricky Dexter(2-0) davwa ke yo pran dezyèm genyen an nan karyè l ', li amatè Rick Matthews (1-1) getting his first victory. 44-year old Matthews won a decision over Emmett Huber (0-1) pandan y ap Dexter bay nòt yon gwo pentch sou Cory Jijman (0-1) nan-wonn nan dezyèm, voye Jijman nan yon lopital ki tou pre nan pwosesis la.

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).

 

De epizod yo te anonse pou pwochen mma evènman nef an, “Nef ksvii,” pwograme pou Avril 11, 2015 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

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

Kite yon kòmantè

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.”

 

Pwochen mma evènman nef an, “Nef XVI,” pran plas sa a Samdi, Fevriye 7, 2015, with an all-star lineup of fights scheduled.
