Prior to that defeat, Denning was riding a four-fight win streak, all four of those wins coming by way of submission. He is a member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ). Denning acknowledges personal issues have existed in the past between he and Harvey, culminating in a cageside confrontation between the two athletes at the close of “NEF XV” nella caduta 2014.

 

I’m honored to have been asked specifically for this fight,” ha detto Denning. “Josh is the 155 ammy champ and is an amazing fighter. I’m excited to watch him continue his career as a pro and move up to the top of the professional rankings. We had some personal issues between the two of us because of a poor decision I made, and I hope with us fighting it will clear the air and I’ll be able to cross train with him and Young’s MMA. We gotta give the fans what they want and this is what they wanted. I look forward to seeing everyone April 23rd.

 

The bout will indeed be the professional debut for Harvey after an amateur career in which he went 5-1. He is the reigning NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Champion, a title which he will now vacate as a professional. Harvey capped off his amateur stint with a highlight reel knockout over Ryan Dibartolomeo (4-4), a victory that solidified his position as the northeast region’s top-ranked amateur lightweight. Harvey is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine. He recently signed a long-term NEF developmental deal.

 

I’m feeling blessed to be a signed professional cage fighter,” Ha detto Harvey. “I’m one step closer to my goal and April 23rd I’ll take another. I’ve wanted a chance to fight ‘Ken Dollever since I met himhe is just one of those guys. I’m thankful for the opportunity.

 

One thing is very clear in this matchup – Josh and Matt don’t like each other,” stated NEF matchmaker and co-owner Matt Peterson. “There is some deep, pent-up frustration that has been percolating between these two for a long timeand on April 23rd, the cork comes out. It’s going to be spectacular.

GLOVER AND WILLIAMS TO FACE OFF FOR NEF GOLD

Lewiston, Maine (Febbraio 1, 2016) - Combattimenti New England (NEF), Numero uno di promozione lotta regionale dell'America, terrà la sua prossimo evento, "NEF 21: THE IMMORTALS” this Sabato, Febbraio 6, 2016 al Androscoggin Bank Colisee a Lewiston, Maine. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed martial arts (MMA) and professional boxing bouts. Proprio oggi, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur light heavyweight championship bout to the card. Ryan Glover (2-1) will face Mike Williams (1-0) for the inaugural NEF amateur 205-pound title.

 

Prima di competere in MMA, Ryan Glover was a standout dual sport athlete at Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. A state champion wrestler, Glover made his biggest mark on the football field where he was named the “Football Player of the Year” by the Lewiston Sun Journal in 2010.

 

L'anno scorso, Glover faced Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (3-1) for the NEF amateur heavyweight championship. Glover lost a close decision in an exciting, hard-hitting physical contest. Ora, faster and more agile at a lower weight, Glover has his sights set on finally achieving NEF gold.

 

“The weight cut has not been fun, but has gone easier than expected,” stated Glover, when asked about his cut down to 205-pounds. “I feel a lot better as I approach 205 and I think I’ll like fighting at this weight. It’s going to be bittersweet to hold the belt at 205. I lost a close slugfest last June simply because I didn’t stick to our game plan. I dropped the ball that night and you can rest assured that’s not going to happen again. I hope Williams has been training as hard as I have, perché, if so, it’s going to be a fight that no one wants to miss. I’ll see you February 6th and don’t be late—this is a show worth traveling 1000 miles for.”

 

Mike Williams took a collective gasp out of the Androscoggin Bank Colisee when he came out guns blazing in his debut at “NEF XX: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE” last November. Williams, a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) blue belt and member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (CMBJJ) a Auburn, blasted fellow newcomer Joe Krech (0-1) out of the gate before securing a fight-ending armbar in a spectacular 26-seconds into the first round. The dizzying debut was enough to earn the impressive young Williams a shot at NEF gold.

 

“This fight is just another step and he’s in the way,” stated Williams flatly when asked for comment.

 

“This is another Easter egg of a fight on a star-studded card that is destined to deliver for the whole night,"Ha dichiarato NEF co-proprietario e matchmaker Matt Peterson. “When I look at this fight and the skill sets that both Ryan and Mike bring to the cage, I get goose bumps. Both are athletic, aggressivo, young and hungry guys that want to turn heads when they compete—and will stop at nothing to win. Based on what I’ve witnessed in their fights so far, I don’t see an ounce of quit in either fighter. I can’t wait to watch the way this one goes down on Saturday.”

 

prossimo evento New England Combattimenti ', "NEF 21: Gli immortali,” takes place Saturday, Febbraio 6, 2016 al Androscoggin Bank Colisée a Lewiston, Maine.

Northeast Junior Welterweight Champion Brandon “The Cannon” Bacca (10-1) will attempt to make it three wins in a row when he steps in the ring to face undefeated Tollison Lewis (2-0) in a six-round, non-titolo, super-welterweight contest. Both Berry and Lewis are coming off wins in the boxing ring at “NEF XX” lo scorso novembre.

 

The professional portion of the MMA card will be headlined by the long-awaited meeting between Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (12-8) e Jon Lemke (5-3). DubbedThe Battle for Bangor,” with both men living and training in the Bangor, Maine area, Boyington’s NEF MMA Professional Lightweight Title will be on the line. Number-one contender Lemke will be looking to capture the first championship of his MMA career.

 

The co-main event of the evening on the professional MMA card will see local Lewiston-Auburn favorite Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (6-4) assumendo Devin Powell (4-1) in a lightweight matchup. Powell returns to the NEF cage for the first time since May 2014, while Erickson will be looking for his fourth consecutive win in Lewiston.

It will be a rematch of a contest won by Lamonte at “NEF XX.” Boyington’s supporters in the audience felt that the referee stopped the bout prematurely as Boyington was about to break out of, or had already broken out of, Lamonte’s armbar submission. After much back and forth among their respective supporters on social media, the rematch is expected to settle the issue once and for all.

Lachance è venuta fuori una vittoria di sottomissione primo turno su David Thompson (0-1) a “NEF XIX” scorso settembre. Egli è fiducioso nelle sue capacità e predice la vittoria sul Ewer quando si incontrano questo fine settimana. Mentre il futuro di Lachance in questo sport appare più luminoso ogni giorno, lui giura di non trascurare il compito a portata di mano e di lasciare che la sua fede cristiana lo guida attraverso la sua carriera.

 

“Riuscirò a sconfiggere CJ in ogni modo possibile,” ha detto Lachance. “MMA è uno sport dove tutto può accadere. Sto pienamente preparati per qualsiasi cosa possa venire il 21. Mi concentro sul mio prossimo avversario quando questa lotta è fuori dalla mia strada. Non voglio dimenticare il mio avversario. Dio sarà istituito il futuro per me, come ha finora.”

Ha iniziato la formazione più di due anni fa a MMA Athletix a Bath, Maine, dove ha anche aderito il ministero Chiesa della Vittoria di allora proprietario della palestra Ryan Cowette (2-3).

 

“Sono stato benedetto con una straordinaria opportunità, e non potrei essere più grato. Il gioco di lotta è la più alta di alti e più basso dei bassi. I momenti più qualificanti della mia breve carriera non sono venute da dentro la gabbia, ma da imparare e crescere giorno per giorno come uomo e come un combattente.”

Quando le sfide di piccole proprietà delle imprese rialzato la testa, Lachance lascia ancora una volta la sua fede lo guida.

 

“L'acquisto che la palestra è un momento enorme sia per Norman e me,” ha dichiarato Lachance. “Abbiamo dovuto sedersi e realmente valutare quello che volevamo fuori delle nostre carriere, e anche fuori della nostra attività. Ci siamo resi conto rapidamente che con i lavori a tempo pieno, non abbiamo tempo per essere allenatori, formatori, combattenti e titolari di aziende e ancora si aspettano di avere successo. Abbiamo pregato su di esso e Dio ci ha mandato la squadra perfetta di allenatori e preparatori atletici, insieme a un nuovo gruppo di caccia e provenienti.

 

“MMA ha già cambiato la mia vita in molti modi. Mi aspetto di portarla al top, come imprenditore e come un combattente. Dio mi ha dato la possibilità di vivere il mio sogno, giorno dopo giorno.”
