MONTOYA STEPS UP TO FACE SANDERS ON SEPTEMBER 8 В БАНГОР

Оставете коментар

Бангор, Maine (Август 8, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) ще проведе следващото си събитие за смесени бойни изкуства, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” на Септември 8 в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор. По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional welterweight bout to the card. “The” Райън Сандърс (16-9) ще се изправят Armando “Big Chino” Монтоя (10-6) в бой тегло от 170 паунда.

The bout will be the third for Sanders in front of his hometown friends, family and fans. He is undefeated in the Queen City, where Sanders trains at Young’s MMA. He scored a decision over Derrick Kennington (13-11) two years ago at “NEF представя Dana White: Погледни вътре’ за битка” and a submission of Jay Ellis (15-78) last year at the Cross. Общо, Sanders is on a roll, having won six of his last seven. During that stretch, he captured the NEF Professional Lightweight Title, knocked out veteran John Ortolani (8-13) in a mere 15-seconds, and literally tore Vince McGuiness’ (5-8) arm out of its socket earlier this summer at “34” в Портланд, Maine.

Unfortunately for Sanders, his meteoric rise to the top of New England’s 155-pound division over the course of the last two years has come with consequences. He has called out virtually every other top lightweight prospect in the region in recent months with the sound of crickets as the only response. It is a testament to both Sanders’ skill and the respect, (or fear for that matter), that his peers hold for him. Hence Sanders’ move to the heavier welterweight division to find opponents willing to step in the cage across from him.

“I am excited that I get another chance to fight in my backyard,” said Sanders. “I appreciate Montoya for taking this fight because not many men are willing to fight me regionally. I look forward to displaying my ever evolving tool set come Септември 8 and getting another step closer to being the best in the world. It’ll be a great night for Young’s MMA and myself.”

Armando Montoya is a longtime veteran of the MMA cage. He started his professional career back in 2009 on the West Coast and has competed extensively throughout the Southwest over the years. Montoya has fought for national promotions like King of the Cage and the Resurrection Fighting Alliance. Наскоро, Montoya relocated to Maine where he trains with First Class MMA in Brunswick. The bout with Sanders will be his first fight back from a layoff that began in early 2017.

“I’m excited to be fighting again after a year and a half off,” said Montoya. “Thanks to NEF and Maine for the opportunity to be able to fight for an awesome promotion. Thanks to Sanders. It’s exciting to fight a worthy opponent in September. God is good, God bless us all!”

следващо събитие смесени бойни изкуства NEF си, “NEF 35: Зъл сезон,” ще види компанията да се завърне в Cross Insurance Center в Бангор, Maine. Предвидено е събитието да се състои Събота, Септември 8, 2018 с време звънец на 7 ч. Билетите са в продажба сега в www.CrossInsuranceCenter.com.

Портланд, Maine (Юни 17, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) made its return to Portland, Maine on Saturday night with the fight promotion’s latest mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave.” A jam-packed house of fight fans took in the action as NEF fighters delivered the non-stop excitement from bell to bell in what many are calling one of the best events the company has ever produced.

 

 

 

On a card featuring a total of 18 битки, съдиите’ scorecards were not needed until the thirteenth bout of the evening. Преди това, the early card featured a plethora of exciting finishes including a pair of D’Arce Chokes courtesy of Angelo Rizzitello (2-1) and Henry Clark (4-4) and highlight-reel knockouts by Cody Rolling (5-5) and Zac Lawrence (1-0). Thirteen of the evening’s fights ended in the first round.

 

 

 

Кам Арнолд (4-0) and Killian Murphy (1-1) waged an absolute war for the vacant amateur bantamweight title in what made history as the first amateur fight in Maine to ever go beyond the old three-round limit. Arnold claimed the title with a fourth-round knockout in a bout that will certainly be a contender for “Fight на годината” this December when voting begins.

 

 

 

Not to be outdone, Carlton Чарлз (2-2) and Duncan “The Highlander” Ковач (3-2) took their amateur welterweight title fight into the fourth round as well. Smith took the gold home after putting Charles out with a rear-naked choke.

 

 

 

On the professional side of the card, Young’s MMA teammates “The” Райън Сандърс (16-9) and Aaron “Безмилостен” Lacey (5-2) were in action. Sanders submitted Vince McGuiness (5-8) with just seconds remaining in the first round while Lacey lost a unanimous decision to Da’Mon Blackshear (5-1) в основното събитие.

NEF RELEASES FIGHT CARD FOR RETURN TO PORTLAND ON JUNE 16

Оставете коментар

 

Портланд, Maine (Май 18, 2018) –Earlier today, New England Битки (NEF) пусна официалната карта за предстоящото си завръщане в Aura в Портланд, Maine. Събитието за смесени бойни изкуства, озаглавена “NEF 34: Дом на смелите,” е планирано да се проведе в събота вечер, Юни 16, 2018 със звънец на 7:00 ч EDT.

 

 

 

The main event will feature two rising East Coast prospects when Bangor, Maine’s own Арон “Безмилостен” Lacey (5-1) meets Fayetteville, North Carolina’s Da’Mon “The Diamond” Blackshear (4-1) в категория перо мач. Lacey is coming off a dominant win over veteran Josh Parker (6-9) рано тази година, while Blackshear looks to rebound from the first loss of his professional career last August.

 

 

 

Lacey’s Young’s MMA teammate “The” Райън Сандърс (15-9) will see action in the co-main event against Tampa, Флорида Vince McGuiness (5-7). Sanders is the reigning NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Champion. The fight with McGuiness will be a non-title affair.

 

 

 

Rounding out the professional portion of the card will be yet another Young’s MMA competitor in the form of Carl Лангстън (0-1) who is scheduled to rematch The Choi Institute’s Ernesto Ornelas (3-7) in a battle of Portland fan-favorites. Langston and Ornelas initially met last month at “NEF 33” with Ornelas coming out on top via unanimous decision. Langston immediately requested a rematch blaming his performance on nerves surrounding his pro debut. Ornelas obliged and has promised to finish Langston this time out, leaving no room for question.

 

 

 

The amateur portion of the card will be headlined by a pair of title fights. Undefeated Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) перспектива Кам Арнолд (3-0) ще се изправят Michael Crespo (3-3) of First Class MMA for the vacant NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Championship. In the second title fight, Carlton Чарлз (2-1) of the Charles Fighting Family and Berserkers MMA meets Duncan “The Highlander” Ковач (2-2) of Evolution Athletix to crown a new NEF MMA Amateur Welterweight Champion. Both fights are scheduled for five three-minute rounds – a first in the NEF amateur division as all previous title fights had been scheduled for three three-minute rounds.

 

 

 

Three women’s bouts will take place on the amateur card. Brianne Genschel (0-1) of First Class MMA and the Foundry will take on Tampa, Флорида Аманда Gallo (1-1) while Genschel’s First Class MMA teammate Chelsea Tucker (0-2) faces the debuting Слава Уотсън (0-0) на MMA Йънг, и Carol Linn Powell (0-1) отговаря Sarah Matulis (1-0) of the Outlet. Powell owns and operates Nostos MMA of Somersworth, NH alongside her husband, UFC signee and former NEF MMA Professional Lightweight Champion Devin Powell (8-3).

 

Хенри Кларк (3-4) и Killian Murphy (1-0) both had opponents pull out on them prior to press time. NEF matchmakers are working on finding replacement opponents. Bantamweight and featherweight amateurs interested in either fight are asked to contact NEF via email at newenglandfights@gmail.com. Serious inquiries only please.

LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION RETURNING TO NEF CAGE IN PORTLAND

Оставете коментар

Портланд, Maine (Април 26, 2018) - New England Битки (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland, Maine with its next mixed-martial-arts event, “NEF 34: Дом на смелите,” в събота нощ, Юни 16, 2018. По-рано днес, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional lightweight bout to the card. Reigning NEF MMA Professional Lightweight Champion “The” Райън Сандърс (15-9) ще се изправят Vince McGuiness (5-7) in a non-title bout at a fight weight of 155-pounds.

Ryan Sanders has had a storied career in the NEF cage. He competed in, и спечели, the main event of the very first NEF card in February 2012 over veteran Dan Keefe (7-3). Sanders fought on ten of the first fifteen NEF cards, including the company’s co-promotion with Bellator in the spring of 2013. After more than a two-year absence from NEF, Sanders returned to the promotion in August 2016 and went on a five-fight win-streak over the course of the next year – the longest streak of his career. During that stint, Sanders captured his first gold in NEF – the coveted professional lightweight title – with a victory over Jon Lemke (7-8) last spring. The bout with McGuiness will be Sanders’ first in the NEF cage since August 2017. He will be looking to bounce back from a loss in Massachusetts last month. Sanders is a longtime member of Bangor, Maine’s Young’s MMA fight team.

“I’m ecstatic to be back fighting for the NEF, it has been too long,” said Sanders. “I’m back to show the fans that I’m the best lightweight in the region, and that I’m on the road to be the best lightweight in the world. I really appreciate Vince taking this fight. I look forward to showing my improvements and the work that I’ve been putting in while away from the cage. I have great coaches, teammates, and an amazing wife in my corner that makes me truly feel unstoppable. Come watch me take another step towards my destiny on Юни 16 in Portland.”

Родом от Бруклин, New York and current head coach of Bang Muay Thai in Tampa, Флорида, Vince McGuiness is no stranger to the New England MMA scene. His two most recent fights have been in Massachusetts, and McGuiness has even competed previously on a Portland fight card in 2015. He will be looking to rebound against Sanders after losing his last four bouts in the cage.

“I’m excited to be back in New England fighting again,” said McGuiness. “I always get love up there. I’m ready to put on a scrap!"
