Ozugbo tọhapụ: Lewiston, Maine (March 7, 2017) – New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” na satọde, April 29, 2017 na Androscoggin Bank Colisee na Lewiston, Maine. Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Aaron “N'esepụghị aka” Lacey (4-0) ka aka na ihu Walter “All-Day” Smith-Cotito (4-5) na a ọgụ arọ nke 145-pound.

Aaron Lacey, undefeated as a professional, has won seven in a row going back to his amateur career. He was prepared to compete at “NEF 27” ikpeazụ nke ọnwa, but Mother Nature had other plans when a snowstorm prevented his opponent from making the trip to Lewiston from Florida. The setback has made Lacey even hungrier to return to action, but the Young’s MMA standout knows that he has his toughest test to date in front of him in the form of Cotito.

“This is going to be an amazing fight,” said Lacey. “Walter is a skilled and dangerous opponent, and he is realistically one of the most dangerous people I have fought to date. That’s alright with me though – the tougher the opponent, na ike m ọrụ. After what went down in February, I’m chomping at the bit to get back in there.”

The fight for Cotito will represent a rubber match of sorts with Young’s opponents. In the spring of 2013, Cotito took Ray Wood (8-3) deep into the third round before Wood, then Young’s standout featherweight prospect, was able to finish the fight. Cotito would gain a measure of revenge against the Bangor gym when he submitted Bruce Boyington (14-10) na “NEF X” later that year. Between a pair of recent appearances for global fight promotion Bellator, Cotito scored a second-round submission of Elias Leland (3-2) na “NEF 25” last September.

“I’m super excited to fight this kid that they’re all talking about,” exclaimed Cotito. “He has a lot of potential, they keep saying – good, this just makes it more exciting for me! Nobody has seen the real Walter Cotito in the cage yet. Don’t miss this fight because ‘All-Day’ is coming for you!”

Hapụ ikwu

Lewiston, Maine (August 18, 2016) - OnSeptember 10, 2016 New England alụkarị ọgụ (NEF) returns to Lewiston with its next event, “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS.” Earlier today, NEF announced the addition of a professional bantamweight mixed-martial-arts (Emmanuel) bout to the fight card. Elias “Danger Adila” Leland (2-1) ka aka izute Walter Smith Cotito (3-4) na a ọgụ arọ nke 135-pound.

 

Six of Leland’s combined seven amateur and professional MMA fights have taken place in the NEF cage. The Portland, Maine resident’s only loss to date in NEF was in his last fight against Jay Perrin (2-2) in the spring of 2015. Late last year, Leland made his pro boxing debut in the NEF ring, taking Josh Parker (0-3-1) to a draw on the judges’ scorecards. He has proven to be strong in both his standup and on the mat. Leland, a member of Jay Jack and Amanda Buckner’s The Academy of MMA in Portland, is a dangerous opponent no matter where a fight ends up.

 

“I have been working hard since last year to become better in every aspect of my game,” Kwurula Leland. “I can’t wait to test myself on this tough dude. Good luck, Walter – and prepare yourself for a hell of a show!”

 

Walter Smith Cotito is no stranger to the NEF cage. Na September 2013, Cotito shocked Maine fans by submitting former NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Champion Bruce Boyington (13-8) in the first round of a bout at “NEF X.” Ọtụtụ na-adịbeghị anya, Cotito competed at Bellator 144 na Connecticut. He holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and is based out of Team Link in Hooksett, New Hampshire.

 

“I think this kid is really brave to take a fight with me, but I will make sure I’m his worst nightmare,” exclaimed Cotito when reached for comment.
