路易斯顿, 缅因 (六月 10, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA,” 这个星期六 夜晚, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 最近, 头条新闻 布鲁斯 “漂亮男孩” Boyington (10-8), 在NEF MMA职业轻量级冠军, 和 约翰· “甲级” 射线(2-7) 加入NEF共同所有者和媒人马特·彼得森在一个特殊的 “头对头” edition of the NEF Podcast. Boyington and Raio discussed the upcoming rematch and the controversy surrounding their first meeting in February 2014, 除其他议题.

 

The interview quickly turned to the top of the first fight. Raio appeared to apply a rear-naked choke to Boyington on the mat late in the first round. Boyington began waving his hand in the air and referee Jimmy Bickford quickly stepped in to stop the fight. Much has been made of the infamous “手一挥。” While Bickford saw it as a sign of Boyington’s submission, Boyington曾辩称，他只是信令，以他的球迷在人群中的保持没有做任何损害.

 

“我可以告诉你如何当晚结束,” recalled Raio of the first bout. “基本上, Bruce had given me his back. When I took his back, I had the hooks in and I had the rear-naked choke across his jaw line. I was trying to pressure it under his throat, 当我抓住我的左二头肌和我的左手打算在脑后, 裁判叫停… 我很惊讶，他因窃听, 老老实实, 我知道我有很多的压力，他的下巴… 事实上，如果他挥手, ，吸他。”

 

“在这种情况下, 我记得特别比克福德看着我, 我面对, 他会为我的脖子，我挥舞着,” 说Boyington. “每个人都开始咆哮真正的响亮，我记得比克福德说, “没有布鲁斯, 你不能说'… 如果你认为我在提交或者我遇到麻烦或不能呼吸, you don’t tell the fighter, “你不能说,” you just jump in and you stop the fight. I feel like he made a mistake. I feel like he realizes that… 我看到了很多不同的东西，约翰已经在网上说, 和很多东西别人已经说过, and that’s when I really started to get bothered by what had happened. I felt like he could’ve handled it better.”

 

此前Boyington放弃他的背, many felt he had been winning that first round. 的确, Boyington’s striking seemed to be on point that evening. Peterson asked both competitors to speculate on what would have happened had the referee not stopped the bout at that point.

 

“必将, 我认为约翰会已经被淘汰,” stated Boyington emphatically. “我不认为我会提交他, because that would be his best chance with me. He’s strong enough to defend a submission.”

 

“我想，如果裁判没有停止的时候, 当我在他的下巴和我的前臂和我到达脖子后面,” 雷推测, “I believe my arm would’ve slid under his throat and it would’ve ended sometime soon before the round. 所以, 我不认为这会已经走了第二轮。”

 

在未来的日子, 几周和几个月后的战斗, both Boyington’s and Raio’s massive fan-followings have been very vocal on social media regarding the outcome of the bout. The heated debate has raged between both sides for well over a year now. With so much at stake for each side at “NEF XVIII,” 运动员都谈到什么复赛意味着他们, 他们需要什么来证明本周末.

 

“我不能去那里击败约翰·,” 说Boyington. “连自己的球迷都期待的… 我不能只是去那里上 6月13日and beat John Raio. I gotta go in there and destroy him. Or I still lose out on this fight. 我知道, and I’m gonna go in there and make that statement. And I’m gonna do it with one arm, 因为另一只手臂甚至没有工作，现在… I haven’t worried about this date from day one. It’s nothing to do with John Raio. I don’t disrespect the guy. I don’t not like the guy. He’s a good man. I’m just at another level. I need to show up and prove that. That’s what it is to me. It’s not about me beating John. It’s about me showing everybody where I belong.”

 

“至于布鲁斯迅速整理箱, 并使其易于, 并没有真正担心打太多, 我只是觉得它像不敬的很多东西他对我说：, 我的家人和我的朋友,” replied Raio. “还有，当人们向我祝贺最后的挣扎后次 (在Facebook上) and he’d go on like a one or two paragraph rant on every single comment everyone had put on my page for like three days straight. 所以, 之后，我说：“布鲁斯和我是不是真的朋友了,’ so I deleted him. I liked him before that fight… 但是，当人们不尊重我，就像他很难喜欢的家伙。”

路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 29, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, the promotion announced the addition of a professional light-heavyweight bout to the fight card. 话筒 “小胡子” 汉森 (2-1) 将举行 Cody Anderson (1-2) 在205磅的斗争重量.

 

A native of Rumford, 缅因, Hansen won a state championship in 2004 wrestling for Mountain Valley High School. After graduation, Hansen began training in MMA and made a successful debut in 2005. He would put his MMA career on hold to serve his country in the United States Army as a combat engineer. 今年早些时候，, Hansen returned to the sport and founded Berserkers MMA in his hometown of Rumford. His first fight in the cage in nearly a decade saw him triumph over Artie Mullen (0-11) this past February at “NEF十六。”

 

“I’m pumped to be have an opponent like Cody,” said Hansen of the upcoming fight with Anderson. “He is a real tough guy and this should be a great battle.”

 

Cody Anderson is a member of Team Triumph/Boston Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (巴西柔术) in Nashua, 新罕布什尔州. Formerly a top-ranked amateur, Anderson put together a perfect 5-0 record over the course of his amateur career. He turned pro in the fall of 2012, winning his debut over Hector Sanchez (3-12). Anderson’s last appearance in NEF saw him submitted in the final moments of his bout with Jarod “最后一分钟” 劳顿 (4-2) 在 “第七NEF” 两年前.

FEATHERWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

发表评论

 

路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 21, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the fight card. The matchup will feature 杰里米·泰勒 (4-3) 面对 约翰尼工艺品 (3-0) at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds.

 

Jeremy Tyler will be making his return to the NEF cage after an extended absence of nine months. A member of Marcus Davis’s famed Team Irish gym in Brewer, 缅因, Tyler will look to rebound from the first back-to-back losses of his career. Both of those losses came to Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) 竞争者. It is a gym affiliated with Johnny Crafts’ team New England United (NEW), so the 六月 13 fight will be an opportunity for Jeremy to gain a measure of revenge as well. Like his opponent at “NEF XVIII,” Tyler has proven himself a submission specialist with all four of his victories coming by way of capitulation.

 

“I’m very excited to be stepping into the NEF cage for the first time in 2015,” said Tyler. “I am looking forward to the opportunity to fight John Crafts who is a highly ranked MMA fighter with a very good Jiu Jitsu game. I believe the NEF fans will be very happy with the match-up and feel this will make for an entertaining fight. Expect to see an improved performance from me. I took some time off after my last fight to focus, build upon my technique and add to my overall skill sets. I am ready to unleash the game I’ve been developing in the cage so 6月13日 can’t get here fast enough.”

 

Originally scheduled to challenge for the NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Championship at “NEF XVIII,” Johnny Crafts was left without a fight after his original opponent pulled out due to injury. That was until Jeremy Tyler stepped up to the challenge this week. This fight will mark the first time Johnny Crafts, who holds a brown belt in BJJ, has competed above the bantamweight limit of 135-pounds. Crafts was voted the “2014 年度最佳新秀” by NEF fans.

 

“I’m very excited to be fighting Jeremy Tyler,” said Crafts. “He’s a well-rounded fighter with good experience. I’m looking to test the waters at 145 for my first time and see how I feel fighting up. I was pretty disappointed in the title fight falling through, but I assure everyone that this fight will be just as exciting to watch.”

路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 19, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: MADE IN AMERICA,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, 促进宣布全面拼卡事件.

 

In a highly-anticipated rematch, NEF MMA职业轻量级冠军 布鲁斯 “漂亮男孩” Boyington (10-8) takes on rival约翰· “甲级” 射线 (2-7) in a non-title catchweight contest. Raio scored a victory over Boyington by rear-naked choke in their initial meeting in February 2014. That win, 然而, was marred in controversy as Boyington contends the referee mistook his wave to his fans in the crowd as a sign of submission. Regardless, Boyington and Raio will look to settle the score on 六月 13 在路易斯顿.

 

NEF homegrown talent, 和 2014 “年度战斗机,” Crowsneck Boutin (0-0) will debut in the professional ranks against “垃圾场的狗” 瑞安Cowette (2-2) 在一个回合中量级. Boutin has developed over the course of three years from a street brawler to a well-disciplined martial artist. Cowette is the head coach of MMA Athletix and the preacher of Victory Church in Bath, 缅因.

 

In other professional bouts: 杰西 “海盗” 埃里克森 (4-4) looks to follow up his commanding performance last month at “第十七NEF” with another victory when he takes on Zenon Herrera(0-0); “防碎2.0” 德里克·肖雷 (2-1) will also try to make it two-in-a-row when he meets Canada’s 杰里米DiChiara (1-0) in a bantamweight battle; 和 埃利亚斯 “危险老鼠” 利兰 (2-1) hopes to rebound from a loss last month when he fights 乍得 “机枪” 黄绿色 (3-2) in what many are predicting to steal the show on the professional side of the card.

 

“NEF XVIII” will mark the first time NEF has crowned a set of amateur champions. The amateur card will feature five championship title bouts. Among those bouts will be a heavyweight title fight between the popular 比利 “大脚” 莱希 (2-1) 和瑞恩·格洛弗 (1-0). Glover won a 2011 state championship wrestling for Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, 缅因.

 

In another amateur title fight, 瑞奇德克斯特 (3-0) 广场抵销 乔希·哈维 (3-1) for the lightweight championship. Dexter will represent Team Irish while Harvey will represent Irish’s Bangor-area rival Young’s MMA.

 

A women’s fight will also be featured on the amateur card with亚历克斯·沃克 (0-1) 面对 Kendra Streeter (0-0). Walker thrilled the Lewiston crowd of more than 2,000 在 “第十七NEF” last month with her “夜扑灭” performance against Randi Knowles (1-0).

LIGHTWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO PRO PORTION OF NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

发表评论

路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 8, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, 促进宣布增加了一个专业的轻量级回合的战斗卡. 杰西 “海盗” 埃里克森 (4-4) 将举行 Zenon Herrera (0-0) in what will be Herrera’s professional debut.

 

Erickson is a mainstay of the NEF promotion. The native of Auburn, Maine made his amateur debut at NEF I in February 2012. All fourteen of his bouts have been hosted in the NEF cage except one which was part of an NEF co-promotion with Bellator.

 

Currently a coach at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) – a New England United (NEW) 子公司 – Erickson challenged unsuccessfully twice last fall for the NEF MMA Lightweight Title, dropping back-to-back losses to Bruce Boyington (10-8). 上个月, Erickson returned to the cage against Florida’s Mark DeFord (0-4). The Viking came out aggressive, not letting up with a barrage of lefts, rights and knees. It was a departure from Erickson’s trusted ground game, but it took less than two minutes for him to knock DeFord out cold. If Erickson was looking to make a statement, then that statement was received loud and clear by the raucous crowd of over 2,000.

 

“After back to back losses, I’ve really focused in on some of my weak points,” 埃里克森说. “在我的最后一战, I felt much more confident and relaxed, and I think it showed in my performance. I will continue to get better and show everyone the fighter I’ve always known I could be. I’ll never fight safe, try to eke out a decision, or have a boring fight. Come watch me fight and see something special. The Viking is back and he’s swinging Thor’s hammer now.”

 

Zenon Herrera, an independent fighter based out of Skowhegan, 缅因, began his MMA amateur career in the fall of 2012. Having fought predominantly in Florida previously, he made his NEF debut last month at “第十七NEF” in a losing effort to a very tough Ricky Dexter (3-0). Herrera is a military veteran, having served four years in the United States Army and five years in the United States Marine Corps. He looks forward to making the transition from the amateur to professional ranks and the new challenges it will bring.

 

“I’m very much looking forward to this chance of taking myself to the next level of MMA,” 埃雷拉说. “Jesse Erickson is a tough dude and that will make this match all the better. I’m also looking forward to representing the NEF, Macho Fighter, Combatives Gear, and the USMC with all of the pride and honor that they deserve with everything I do in MMA from this point forward.”

 

NEF的下一个MMA赛事, “NEF XVIII: Made in America” will originate from the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine on June 13, 2015. 门票 “NEF XVIII” 开始只是 $25 而在销售现在 www.TheColisee.com or by calling the Colisee box office at207.783.2009 X 525. 有关事件，并拼牌更新的详细信息, 请访问推广的网站 www.NewEnglandFights.com. 此外, 你可以在观看视频NEF www.youtube.com/NEFMMA, 按照他们的Twitter @nefights并加入官方Facebook集团“新英格兰战斗。”

MILITARY VETERAN IN BATTLE OF NATIONAL HONOR AT NEF XVIII

发表评论

即时发布: 路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 6, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, 促进宣布增加了一个专业的轻量级回合的战斗卡. “防碎2.0” 德里克·肖雷 (2-1) will make his debut in the 135-pound division against Canadian 杰里米DiChiara (1-0).

 

Shorey is a fitting choice to face the native Ontarian on the patriotic-themed event. 一 2000 graduate of Foxcroft Academy in Dover-Foxcroft, 缅因, where he won a Class-C state wrestling title in 1998, Shorey is a veteran of the United States Navy. He served four years of active duty in the branch, and did a tour of Iraq as a member of SEABEE Battalion NMCB 27.

 

Currently the head coach of the Shatterproof Combat Club, Shorey is coming off a victory over John Raio (2-7) 上个月在 “NEF十七。” The win gave Shorey the upper hand in the three-fight rivalry between the two athletes dating back to their amateur days. While he has gotten off to a good start to his professional career, Shorey will be the first to admit he has more work to do, and the upcoming battle with DiChiara will be a real test of his skills, especially on the mat.

 

“It is truly an honor to fight in front of the NEF fans and represent this rapidly growing brand against a very dangerous opponent,” 肖雷说. “I feel that I still have a lot to prove to the fans, as well as myself in regards to the fighter I’m becoming, and distancing myself from my amateur days. Jeremy is an undefeated purple belt in Jiu-Jitsu, which everyone knows has been my biggest weakness. I see this as an opportunity to show everyone that I’m fixing the problem, and hand a very game opponent his first loss.”

 

Holding a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (巴西柔术), DiChiara will undoubtedly test Shorey should the fight go to the ground. DiChiara is undefeated in MMA competition, having gone 2-0 as an amateur and now 1-0 作为一个专业.

Voted the “年度最佳新秀” 为 2014 by NEF fans, Johnny Crafts has dominated in all three of his prior bouts. For those familiar with his background in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (巴西柔术), it comes as no surprise that the brown belt has submitted each of his opponents. Last February, Crafts handed the previously-undefeated Mike Crespo (2-2) his first loss in the NEF cage. He is currently a member of Team New England United (NEW) – the largest BJJ team in the northeast.

 

“I’m very excited to be fighting for the first ever NEF ammy bantamweight title,” said Crafts. “This is definitely my hardest fight to date and I am ready to show everyone my progression. Jeff seems like a very well-rounded, experienced fighter and this should be a battle for the NEF fans to enjoy.”

 

Jeff Watts is a product of western New York state where he developed a reputation at a young age as a tough street fighter. With a background in Karate and wrestling, Watts began training in MMA in 2009. A familiar face to New England MMA fans having competed twice in Plymouth, 马萨诸塞州, 六月 13 will be his debut in the NEF cage. Watts is known internationally as writer “Karmaatemycat” on major MMA website Cagepotato.com. Currently residing in Wausau, 威斯康星, he trains out of Rising Son MMA.

 

“I’m incredibly excited to be fighting the caliber of Jiu Jitsu that John brings to the cage,” said Watts. “I’m even more excited to see how he handles being punched in the face. First ever Bantamweight title for NEF. What an honor! 赢, 输, 或绘制–这将是一个疯狂的夜晚. I’m excited to show some skills I’ve never shown before. Let’s put a show on John. Bang with me.”

发表评论

 

 

即时发布: 路易斯顿, 缅因 (五月 1, 2015) - 新英格兰战斗 (NEF), 美国的头号地区拼促销, 将举行第十八届混合武术 (MMA) 事件, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” 上 星期六, 六月 13, 2015 在安德罗斯科银行Colisée酒店在路易斯顿, 缅因. 今天早些时候，, 促销宣布在战斗卡中增加业余轻量级比赛. The bout will feature Corey Hinkley (2-3) 针对 科里试用 (0-1) at the lightweight limit of 155-pounds.

 

Cory Trial made his NEF MMA debut this past February at “NEF十六。” While Trial came out on the losing end of the fight, he showed powerful striking skills in a wild slugfest with Ricky Dexter (3-0). It is a fighting style that Trial and his teammates at Ruthless MMA & Boxing of Benton, Maine have become known for. It is a style that has also produced some of the most memorable fights on the last several NEF events. Ruthless head coach Josh Parker (4-8) is confident in Trial’s ability to finish the bout coming up on 六月 13.

 

“When Cory walked into my gym, I knew I had something special,” 帕克说. “The guy is an animal, and in June he will be looking to show everyone that in his last fight the lights killed him. This fight won’t be going out of the first round.”

 

“我很高兴这场斗争,” exclaimed Trial. “Excited to get another chance to show people who I am as a fighter. 上次, I was overwhelmed with the lights and the crowd. 这次, the real Cory will be in the cage, and I’ll be looking for the finish.”

 

When they meet at “NEF XVIII,” it will have been nine months since the last time Trial’s opponent, Corey Hinkley, stepped in the cage to compete. After starting his amateur career at 2-1, Hinkley has dropped his last two in a row. He and his coach at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), 杰西·埃里克森 (3-3), say that Hinkley has been training harder than ever for his return and has put personal issues behind him since his last appearance for NEF.

 

“I’ve had a lot of personal things going on in my life in the past, but I’m now able to train the way I’ve been needing to and I’m coming back stronger than ever,” said Hinkley.

 

“I have never seen Corey so focused,” stated Erickson. “He’s training harder than he has for any of his previous fights, and I can’t wait to watch him do his thing in June!”
