Lewiston, Maine (Octombrie 5, 2016) – Lupte New England (NEF) prezintă următorul eveniment mixt-arte marțiale, “NEF 26: SUPREMAŢIE,” sâmbăta, Noiembrie 19 la Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Mai devreme astăzi, NEF executives announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the fight card. Aaron “Neobosit” Lacey (3-0) has signed on to face Taylor Trahan (6-6) la o greutate luptă de 145 de lire sterline-.

 

Lacey is riding high on a three-fight win streak to start his professional career. He will be looking for his fourth win in a short seven-month period. It would seem that the Young’s MMA featherweight is on the fast track to the next level of the sport. Lacey knows that to get there he will have to continue to face, and defeat, tough veterans like Trahan.

 

Taylor is a seasoned veteran who has competed against the best New England has to offer for a long time,” said Lacey. “He has a vast amount of experience that is going to be hard to surmount. Da, totuși, believe I have a strong set of skills that can cause him a lot of problems. This one is going to be a scrap! Cine știe, maybe another fight of the night!”

 

Trahan is the definition of veteran. He has competed on the regional mixed-martial-arts scene since 2009. Luna trecuta, Trahan made his debut in the NEF MMA cage, defeating Matt Denning (3-4) via first-round submission. It put an end to a five-fight skid that Trahan had been on. He will look to make it two in a row on Noiembrie 19 against Lacey.

 

I’m looking forward to returning to Lewiston to fight for NEF,” said Trahan. “I’m hoping to put on a good show for everyone and come out with the win.

SHATTERPROOF AND RUTHLESS IN MAINE TURF WAR AT NEF 26

Lewiston, Maine (Octombrie 4, 2016) – Lupte New England (NEF) prezintă următorul eveniment mixt-arte marțiale, “NEF 26: SUPREMAŢIE,” sâmbăta, Noiembrie 19 la Androscoggin Bank Colisee. Mai devreme astăzi, NEF executives announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the fight card. Josh Parker (4-8) va lua pe“Incasabilă 2.0” Derek Shorey (4-7) la o greutate luptă de 145 de lire sterline-.

 

Parker is the head of Ruthless MMA & Boxing based in Benton, Maine. A regular in the NEF MMA cage during the early days of the promotion, Parker has spent the last several years competing in the boxing ring. He battled Elias Leland to a draw last November in a boxing bout at “NEF XX.” Parker predicts a finish in his long-awaited return to cage competition.

 

I want to thank NEF for the opportunity and Derek for taking the fight,” Said Parker. “Sunt încântat să mă întorc în cușcă. I feel like I have a lot to prove. I will show up this time and I will finish this fightdon’t miss it!”

 

Derek Shorey, founder of the Shatterproof Combat Club at the Outlet in Dexter, Maine, is coming off a huge win in Rhode Island just over a week ago. It was the spark Shorey had been looking for after dropping his last four in a row in the NEF cage. Admittedly, Shorey is filled with both fear and excitement coming into the fight with Parker.

 

This is a fight that has scared the crap out of me in the past,” declared Shorey. “E o mare, strong 145er that has good movement and boxing. Standing and trading could end horribly for either of us. His strength may be enough to keep my slams in check and I’m not a jits expert, so he can probably power out of whatever I throw at him. It’s a puzzle I’m both excited and terrified to tackle.

 

The opening bell on Saturday, Noiembrie 19 este setat pentru 7 p.m. Biletele încep de la $25 și sunt disponibile la www.TheColisee.com sau sunând la box-office Colisee la 207.783.2009, extensie 525.

SERGEI KHARITONOV SET FOR BELLATOR MMA HEAVYWEIGHT DEBUT AGAINST JAVY AYALA, LIVE & La libera SPIKE

It should come as no surprise that the former Cage Rage Welterweight Champion has strung together a recent flurry of finishes, ca 30 sale 38 victorii de carieră au venit prin finisaj. Daley hopes to continue along his path of dominance and further cement his name among the division’s elite when he and Anderson square off on Noiembrie 4.

Ayala, another heavyweight competitor capable of ending a fight in the blink of an eye, has finished his opponent in eight of his nine career wins. “Eye Candy” also has a knack for putting his challengers out of their misery early in the bout, recording seven of his eight finishes in the first round of action. A 6-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, the 28-year-old has recorded victories in four of his six contests since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion back in 2013.

I’m very happy to be fighting back in Lewiston,” said Sanders. “I’m thankful that Jon took this fight seeing how several top-ten lightweights turned it down. But that’s why I like Jon, he’s a fighter’s fighter and he never backs down from a tough fight.

The bout will be Sanderssecond since returning to the NEF fold. Sanders defeated Derrick Kennington (11-8) august anul trecut la “NEF Presents Dana White: Lookinfor a Fight.” He recently inked a multi-fight developmental deal with NEF.

 

Ryan Sanders and NEF go way back,” stated Sanderscoach Chris Young when asked about Sandersrecent signing of an NEF developmental deal. “Ryan fought on several NEF shows, including headlining ‘NEF I.’ Așa, it’s only fitting that Ryan has finally found his way home. A hard working athlete deserves a hard working promotion and I believe NEF is the perfect vehicle to give Ryan that last push into the next level.

 

Lemke will be coming into the fight hungry for a win. His last victory in the NEF cage will have been almost a year to the day when he defeated Matt Denning (3-4) în Lewiston la “NEF XX.” Lemke is coming off a loss to NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Champion Devin Powell (8-1) this past August in Bangor.

 

What a great opportunity I have been presented by New England Fights to fight Ryan Sanders,” a spus Lemke. “Ryan has been in, and done well, with the very best of New England.

FNU Combat Sports Show: Fury Faces Boxing Ban, UFC Fighters Speaking Out, Eveniment avanpremiere și Recaps

Tom, Tony and Rich discuss this week’s most significant fight cards, and major combat sports news. We also recap last weekend’s major combat sports events. We cover Roy Nelson’s kicking of Big John McCarthy, Heavyweight Boxing Champion Tyson Fury telling drug testers to “F” de pe, Premier Boxing Champions and their dwindling fight cards, and the recent torrent of UFC fighters willing to voice their displeasure with the organization and the pay scale.

ONCE UNDEFEATED BANTAMWEIGHTS LOOK TO GET BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN

Lewiston, Maine (Septembrie 29, 2016) – They started their amateur careers at a perfect 3-0, respectiv. Acum, Fred Lear(3-2) și Ali Zebian (3-3) are both hoping to get back to their winning ways.

 

The mixed-martial-arts (MMA) bout between Lear and Zebian will take place onNoiembrie 4 la “CES vs. NEF: Supremacysuper-show in Lewiston. The televised portion of the fight card, “CES 39,will air live on AXS TV. Lear and Zebian will battle on the non-televised portion of the card, “NEF 26,” at the bantamweight limit of 135-pounds.

 

Fred Lear is a member of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine. He made his NEF debut at “NEF IX” în Biddeford, Maine in the summer of 2013. Lear would finish two of his first three bouts, with a unanimous decision victory over the always-tough Carl Langston (5-8) sandwiched in between.

 

Lear has dropped his last two, including a title-qualifier to Henry Clark (3-2) last September in Lewiston. He will be looking to rebound from that loss, but he knows Zebian presents a hefty challenge. It is a challenge that Lear welcomes.

 

Fighting Ali Zebian on November 4th is a monumental opportunity,” declared Lear. “He is powerful, talented and well coached. I love to compete and am excited for the fight to come.

 

Ali Zebian represents Fighting Arts Academy (FAA) Springfield, Massachusetts. He was just 19-years old when he made his mixed-martial-arts debut in 2013. The start to his career was nothing short of stellar. Zebian finished his first three opponents by technical knockout.

 

While Zebian has lost his last three, those losses have been to opponents coming in with a combined record of 8-3-1. He has faced stiff competition, and he will face it once again on Noiembrie 4 against Fred Lear.

 

Ali is one of the strongest and most tenacious guys I have ever trained with,” said Zebian’s FAA teammate Nick Newell. “Simple errors cost him his last couple fights, but time off competing to focus on his technique have made him a new man. FAA head coach Jeremy Libiszewski and I have noticed his potential for some time now, and it’s finally all starting to come together.

FLYWEIGHT CHAMPION RETURNS TO THE CAGE ON NOVEMBER 4

 

 

PENTRU DIFUZARE: Lewiston, Maine (Septembrie 28, 2016) – He is the reigning NEF Amateur MMA Flyweight Champion, and on Vineri, Noiembrie 4, Ryan Burgess (2-1) will make his return to the cage following his first taste of defeat.

 

Burgess will compete at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on theCES vs. NEF: SupremacyMMA super-show. The televised portion of the fight card, “CES 39,will air live on AXS TV. Burgess will appear on the non-televised portion of the card, “NEF 26,” unde va lua pe Tim Flores (3-2).

 

Cetățean, a three-time Maine State wrestling champion for Mountain Valley High School, won the flyweight title last November from Dustin Veinott (5-4) in a split-decision. The two met in a rematch in June. Veinott would miss weight, resulting in the bout becoming a non-title affair. Veinott went on to submit Burgess in the second round. Burgess is confident that his coaches at Berserkers MMA will have him prepared to bounce back from the loss.

 

Flores seems like a tough dude and I’m expecting a gritty opponent,” Said Burgess. “Coming off a loss, I am eager to jump back in the cage for NEF and capture another victory. With new coaches in my corner, I will be a new fighter come November 4th, and he will be in for a rough night.

 

Tim Flores may be a newcomer to the NEF cage, but he is certainly no stranger to the New England MMA community. The Connecticut native was a fixture on Massachusetts fight cards from 2012 pentru 2014. In the fall of 2013, Flores sent shockwaves through the region with a vicious 18-second knockout of Dan Krall (1-3). Like Burgess, Flores will be looking to rebound from a loss in his last fight, but in doing so he will have to shake off some ring rust as Flores has not competed since the spring of 2014. He now represents Fighting Arts Academy (FAA) Springfield, Massachusetts.

 

I have been out of competition for some time, but have been working while gone,” Flores stated. “I’m looking forward to testing my new skills and bettering myself as a fighter.

 

He is a great athlete with explosive power for a flyweight,” remarked Florescoach Nick Newell. “His skills have gone to the next level since joining FAA.
