פֿאַר באַלדיק מעלדונג: לעוויסטאָן, מיין (פעברואַר 11, 2017) – A nor’easter 48 hours earlier, sub-zero temperatures, heavy snowfall at bell-time, and a blizzard looming on the horizon could not stop more than 2,500 devoted fight fans from getting their fill of mixed-martial-arts action at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on Saturday night. The event marked fight promotion New England Fights’ (נעף) five-year anniversary at the venerable fight arena.

The show was headlined by the semi-finals of the NEF Professional MMA Lightweight Title tournament. דזשאָן לעמקע (6-7) advanced to the finals with a first round technical knockout of דזשעסי עריקסאַן (9-6). Ryan Sanders (13-8) joined Lemke in the final round with a first-round knockout of John Ortolani (8-11).

Ras Hylton (1-0) was victorious in his professional debut over מייק האַנסען (5-5), while former NEF Amateur MMA Welterweight Champion ריקי דעקסטער (1-0) also entered the pro ranks with a verbal submission win over מאַט דענינג (3-6) after a brutal body shot.

On the amateur portion of the fight card, Victor Irwin (3-0) became the new light-heavyweight champion with a submission of ריאַן גלאָווער (3-2).
