Lewiston, Maine (Janeiro 4, 2018) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF) retorna para Lewiston emSábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018 com o próximo evento misto de artes marciais da promoção luta, “NEF 32: Super Sábado.” Hoje cedo, NEF announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Aaron “Implacável” Lacey (4-1) assinou a cara Josh Parker (6-9) com um peso de luta de 145 quilos.
After making his professional debut in the spring of 2016, Aaron Lacey rose quickly through the ranks of the NEF featherweight division. With wins over veterans like Derek Shorey (4-9) and Taylor Trahan (8-9), the year belonged to Lacey. 2017, contudo, was filled with frustration. Lacey lost two scheduled opponents to injuries and had to pull out of one fight with an injury of his own. Late in the year, he took a fight in New Hampshire against Vovka Clay (8-2). Many felt Lacey was winning a close fight, but a deep cut on his head forced the doctor to stop the fight in the second round and the bout was awarded to Clay. It was the first loss of Lacey’s professional career. The product of Young’s MMA is looking to rebound from that loss and get back on track towards the major leagues of the sport beginning with “NEF 32.”
“I’m excited to be returning to the NEF cage,” exclamou Lacey. “Last year was not my year, but it’s over and I’m looking to start 2018 off with a bang! This fight is going to be fun and I love that I get to come home and perform in front of the NEF fans! The best ones around! I’m coming in prepared and looking for the finish!"
Josh Parker has been a mainstay of both the NEF MMA cage and boxing ring since his debut with the promotion back at “NEF I” em fevereiro 2012. Since turning his focus back to MMA from boxing in late 2016, Parker has had two solid victories in Lewiston. Em “NEF 26” em Novembro 2016, Parker submitted Derek Shorey. Verão passado, em “NEF 29,” Parker was again successful, this time taking a unanimous decision victory over Andre Belcarris (0-2). He will look to make it back-to-back wins for the first time in his career since 2011 when he steps into the cage against Lacey. Parker is the head of Ruthless MMA & Boxing based in Benton, Maine.
“I want to thank NEF for the opportunity, and thank Aaron for taking the fight,” disse Parker. “Estou animado para a luta. I missed out on the last show, so I’m itching to get back in there . Aaron has had an awesome career so far, and I’m looking forward to the challenges he presents, but I think I match-up well against him. Não perca este – it’s gonna be one to remember.”
próximo evento misto de artes marciais do NEF, “NEF 32: Super Sábado,” vai ver a empresa fazer o seu retorno ao Colisee Androscoggin Bank em Lewiston, Maine. O evento está programado para acontecer em Sábado, Fevereiro 3, 2018. Os ingressos já estão à venda online emwww.TheColisee.com.
