PARA PUBLICACION INMEDIATA: Bangor, Maine (Junio 20, 2017) - Luchas de Nueva Inglaterra (NEF) vuelve al Centro de Seguros Cruz en sábado noche, Agosto 5, 2017 con el siguiente evento mixto de artes marciales de la promoción lucha, “NEF 30: Rumble en Bangor.” El día de hoy, NEF announced the addition of a professional championship middleweight contest to the fight card. CJ Ewer (2-0) se enfrentará a Micro “El Bigote” Hansen (5-5) for the vacant NEF MMA Pro 185-pound championship.
CJ Ewer serves as a member of the United States Air Force security forces. When not defending the nation overseas, Ewer trains at Young’s MMA in Bangor. He is an accomplished wrestler, with two Maine state high school championships and a New England district championship to his credit. Ewer wrestled under legendary coach Ted Reese while attending the University of Southern Maine (USM). Upon joining the MMA circuit, he put together a 5-2 récord como amateur antes de convertirse en profesional. Ewer’s last fight was one year ago to the day in Bangor at “NEF PresentsDana White: Pase a ver’ for a Fight.” He dropped Ruben Redman (0-1) with a highlight reel knockout that brought White and his web series co-stars to their feet at ringside.
“Mike is a tough-as-nails opponent, and I look forward to testing myself against him,” said Ewer of the upcoming title fight with Hansen. “At the end of the fight, the most prepared fighter will win. Mike will not out work me in preparation, nor does he have training partners that I have. I look forward to bringing the 185-pound belt back to Young’s MMA on 5 ª de agosto de.”
Mike Hansen, like CJ Ewer, proudly served his country. Hansen was a combat engineer in the United States Army before retiring from the service. Also like Ewer, Hansen comes from a wrestling background with a Maine state title earned during his time with Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. A founding member of team Berserkers MMA, Hansen has a reputation for taking on all comers. He has never backed down from a challenge, sometimes battling behemoths two weight classes larger than himself.
“I’ve been working towards this moment for years now,” stated Hansen. “I busted into the Maine MMA scene just over two years ago and have been fighting top ranked fighters and the guys that everyone else runs from to prove that I can fight. CJ Ewer is a great competitor coming from the best camp in the state at Young’s MMA. I have nothing but respect for them up there, and I know he will come ready to fight. Con eso se dice, I will be ready for war, and I’m coming home with the gold that night. He’s just another man locked in the cage with me, and anyone who has had that caged locked behind them across from me knows I’m not an easy win.”
