Injuries have plagued me and my team for the last two years, but I am healthy now, so watch out,” exclaimed Walker. “I am going on a run and nothing will stop me!”

She made her amateur boxing debut last year.

 

I was really bummed when Alex withdrew from our fight,” said Baker. “You make the sacrifices it takes to train and diet, not to mention the disappointment of those who purchased tickets. But I knew, and our fans knew, Alex is a warrior and would not back out unless something was wrong. I’m looking forward to finally meeting her in the cage on 29 April.”

He currently represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) in Auburn, Maine.

“Eerstens, I’d like to thank NEF for having me on another show,” het Lewis gesê. “I’d like to thank my team and coacheswe are putting in lots of work preparing for this fight with Dominic. Soos vir my opponent, he’s already looking past me. He thinks it will be a walk through. He wants an easy fight for his debut, but it’s not happening. He’s a talented guy, but I’ll have the experience, size, krag, striking and BJJ. He’s a very good wrestler, but I’m not worried about being on the ground. This will be a war and I will have my hand raised at the end. Dom, let’s do it babylet’s do the talking in the cage!”

Jones will be making his professional debut, as well as his NEF debut, op April 29. He got an early start in the martial arts, training Taekwondo with his father at six-years-old. Jones would go on to excel in wrestling during his high school days. He later entered the MMA ranks after joining First Coast Full Contact/Team Riot in his native Jacksonville, Florida. Jones put together an impressive 8-1 record as an amateur while capturing three regional titles. Since moving to New England, Jones has trained at First Class MMA in Brunswick, Maine.

“Ek is opgewonde vir hierdie stryd,” said Jones. “Much respect to Tollison. This is a great fight to kick off my pro debut. I’m training very hard for this bout and I want to show the Maine crowd and NEF who I am! I’m not looking back at the past on what I’ve done as amateurthis is the future and it’s the next level that I have my eyes on.

THE TIME FOR TALK IS OVER, NOW IT’S TIME TO FIGHT!

Lewiston, Maine (Maart 1, 2017) – New England Fights (NEF) bied die volgende geleentheid vir gemengde vechtkunste aan “NEF 28: INVINCIBLE” Saterdag, April 29, 2017 by die Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine. Vroeër vandag, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card. Matt “Ken pop” Definiering (3-6) sal voldoen Josh Parker (5-8) op 'n stryd gewig van 145-pond.

The fight will mark the culmination of months of trash talking on social media between Denning and Parker’s camp. Definiering, a member of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Auburn, Maine and a veteran of the World Series of Fighting (WSOF) cage, will be looking to rebound from a loss to Ricky Dexter (1-0) verlede maand by “NEF 27.”

After Josh’s win over Derek Shorey, I wanted to fight him,” Denning said. “Op papier, both of our last wins were against the same opponent (Shorey). I thought the fight made sense. We both have had a lot of fights against very tough fighters. Sedert daardie stryd, there has been some Facebook bashing from Parker’s brother, and my response was for Josh to sign the contract. He was insulting me and trash talking, so I wanted to prove them wrong. There is no place in a fight where Parker can beat me and on 29 April, I’ll show that to the NEF fans. I’d like to thank (NEF owners) Nick (DiSalvo) and Matt (Peterson) for giving me another opportunity to fight for them. Ook, I’d like to thank Kill Their Will and all my family at CMBJJ for their ongoing support.

Parker’s victory over Shorey last November marked his return to the MMA cage after a three-year absence. He spent the vast majority of that time competing in the boxing ring, yet it was a submission that Parker used to overcome Shorey. For Parker, the head of Ruthless MMA & Boxing based in Benton, Maine, the fight with Denning is not business as usual. The nature of the trash talking has turned personal, and Parker vows vengeance for what he sees as disrespect on Denning’s part.

There comes a time in every fighter’s career that the fight has nothing to do with records or money,” het Parker gesê. “It’s to prove a point. My name has come out of this kid’s mouth too many times. Op 29 April, I’m gonna shut it.
