POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE: Bangor, Maine (Juillet 21, 2017) - Combats Nouvelle-Angleterre (NEF) returns to the Cross Insurance Center Samedi nuit, Août 5, 2017 avec prochain événement mixte martiaux d'arts de la promotion de la lutte, “NEF 30: Rumble in Bangor.” Plus tôt aujourd'hui,, NEF a annoncé la carte de combat complet pour l'événement.
Dans l'événement principal de la soirée, Bangor’s own CJ Aiguière (2-0) se réunira Mike Hansen (5-5) of Rumford, Maine in a five-round contest to crown a new NEF MMA Pro Middleweight Champion. Ewer is a member of local gym Young’s MMA while Hansen represents Berserkers MMA based in the River Valley region of the state. Ewer had a highlight-reel knockout over Ruben Redman (0-1) in his last bout at the Cross – exactly one year to the day he will meet Hansen.
The co-main event of the evening will see Ewer’s Young’s teammate, undefeated Bangor prospect Aaron Lacey (4-0) take on Bellator veteran Bryan Goldsby (17-16). Goldsby will represent Lacey’s most-seasoned challenge to date. Lacey has been nothing short of “Implacable” – his nickname – depuis le tournant pro. He has submitted three of his four opponents in the first round. Only John Santos (3-5) was able to survive three full rounds with Lacey last summer in Bangor. Lacey won that fight via split decision in a rugged, back-and-forth, “combat de la nuit” performance.
Rounding out the pro card will be another Young’s cornerstone, “Le” Ryan Sanders (14-8), who will meet Milwaukee, Wisconsin veteran Jay Ellis (14-68) à un concours de poids welter. Sanders is the reigning NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Champion, having defeated Jon Lemke (6-8) in a tournament final last April to claim the title. The bout with Ellis will be a non-title affair. Sanders is riding a four-fight win streak which began one year ago to the day at the Cross.
Headlining the amateur portion of the fight card will be an NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Title fight. Fred Lear (5-2) of Bangor will do battle with Jefferson, Du Maine Walt Shea (2-0) for the vacant 135-pound championship. Lear and Shea will continue a competitive rivalry that has developed in the amateur ranks in recent years between Lear’s camp Young’s MMA and Shea’s team of First Class MMA based in Brunswick, Maine.
Opening the night will be a women’s fight between Angela Jeune (2-2), wife of Young’s MMA founder and head coach Chris Young, et en Floride de Jessica “The Black Widow” Borga (5-2). The scrap is expected to be an exciting one. Jeune, a Registered Nurse at Eastern Maine Medical Center (EMMC), has put on several “combat de la nuit” performances that have sent audiences into a frenzy. Borga will make her third trip to Maine in the past year to compete in the NEF cage.
