Lewiston, Maine (Август 30, 2016) – The weight cut is regarded by many fighters as the most difficult part of preparing for a fight. За Jesse “Викингът” Erickson (7-5), his weight cut was cut short Понеделник night in preparation for his upcoming bout at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS” следващата седмица. Erickson was initially scheduled to take on Jon Lemke (5-6) in a rematch of their bout from Bellator 93. The fight would have been at the lightweight limit of 155-pounds. Ръководители на NEF, обаче, were informedПонеделник afternoon that Lemke had been injured in training and was out of the fight.
Въведете Crowsneck Boutin (2-2). The middleweight from the Choi Institute in Portland, Maine stepped in to fill the void left by Lemke’s departure. Boutin will take on Erickson at a catchweight of 180-pounds on September 10th. For Erickson, the heavier limit means not just the end of his weight cut, but a chance to finally face Boutin in a showdown that has been some time in the making.
“It seems the stars have aligned for me and Crow to finally fight in the NEF cage,” Ериксън се завърна в клетката срещу Марк ДеФорд от Флорида. “I’m thankful he took the fight and look forward to going to battle with him September 10th. Победа или Валхала”
“Добре, my buddy, Jim Bass, he’s a workin’ pumpin gas and he makes two-fifty for an hour,” sang Boutin when reached for comment. “He’s got rhythm in his hands as he’s tappin’ on the cans. Sings rock and roll in the shower.”
