Portland, Maine (Avril 24, 2018) - Combats Nouvelle-Angleterre (NEF) retourne à Aura à Portland, Maine avec son prochain événement mixtes arts martiaux, “NEF 34: Home of the Brave,” Samedi nuit, Juin 16, 2018. Plus tôt aujourd'hui,, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur women’s bantamweight bout to the card. Brianne Genschel (0-1) will return to take on Amanda Gallo (1-1) à un poids de combat de 135 livres-.
Genschel made her MMA debut at “NEF 26” à l'automne 2016 in a losing effort to a much more experienced Jessica Borga who already had five amateur fights to her credit. Despite the disadvantage in cage experience, Genschel held her own for a full three rounds and forced Borga to the judges’ tableaux de bord. Genschel is the owner and operator of the Farmington branch of The Foundry Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) l'école. She has practiced BJJ for more than a decade and holds a black belt in the martial art. Genschel is also a member of First Class MMA based in Brunswick, Maine.
“I’m really excited to get back in the cage,” said Genschel. “I have a feeling Amanda Gallo will be a great opponent, and certainly won’t make this an easy fight. Je suis à relever le défi, and definitely respect anyone who puts in the time and dedication it takes to get out there. Thank you to Amanda for committing to this fight, and I plan to leave it all in the cage putting on a good show in the process!”
Amanda Gallo, like Genschel, is a one-fight veteran of the NEF cage. En février de cette année, she stunned the Maine fight community by handing top-prospect Jayda Bailey (1-1) her first loss in dominant fashion. Gallo will make her second trip to Maine to fight on Juin 16 from her home state of Florida where she trains at the Tampa branch of Robson Moura Nations United (RMNU).
“Thank you to NEF for allowing me to fight for them again,” said Gallo. “I had a lot of fun fighting Jayda at NEF 32 – she was a tough opponent. I’m sure Brianne will also be a fun match. I’m looking forward to putting on a good show for Maine and hopefully bringing home another win to Florida.”
