DREAM MATCHES, BELLATOR VETERANS & TITLE FIGHTS TOP NEF 29 קאַמף קאָרט

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (יוני 1, 2017) - ניו ענגלאַנד פייץ (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee on יוני 17 with a fight card featuring both mixed-martial-arts (ממאַ) and professional boxing bouts. Earlier today, די העכערונג מודיע די פול קאַמף קאָרט פֿאַר די געשעעניש. The fight card is subject to approval of the Combat Sports Authority of Maine (CSAM). The boxing portion of the card will begin at 7 pm EDT with the MMA card to immediately follow.

 

In a highly-anticipatedSuperfight,” Maine MMA star ברוס “שיין יינגל” בויינגטאָן (14-9 ממאַ, 1-0 באָקסינג) will take on Maine’s premier boxer רוססעלל “The Haitian SensationLamour, דזשוניער. (15-2, 7 קאָס) in a six-round boxing bout. The fight will be a dream match for fans who never expected to see each sportstop in-state athletes face one another. Boyington and Lamour have both been featured in nationally-televised bouts on NBC and ESPN in recent years. Lamour is the former New England Middleweight Champion, while Boyington held the NEF MMA Lightweight Title until relinquishing it last year to sign with the World Series of Fighting (ווסאָף) global promotion.

 

Bruce and Russell are at the top of their respective games,” noted NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson. “Russell is a great boxer, and he’s going to face a superb striker in the form of Taekwondo black belt Bruce Boyington. This is a true dream match for Maine fight fans.

 

The professional MMA portion of the fight card will feature the long-awaited return of former NEF MMA Featherweight Champion שטראַל “כל ביזנעס” האָלץ (8-3) as he faces Brazilian prospect אַלעקסאַנדרע “באַט” Bezerra (19-5). Wood left Maine more than two years ago to re-settle in South Carolina and then Texas. Both Wood and Bezerra are veterans of the Bellator cage with a dozen fights between them for the national promotion.

 

When you consider both sides, this is probably the highest-level fight to ever take place in NEF,” said NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “This fight could easily be slid into any UFC card on FS1 or Fox and steal the show. Either one of these athletes could get the call up after this fight. Our fans are about to see something special.

 

The amateur MMA card will be headlined by a title fight with Rafael “Deez NutsVelado (4-0) defending the amateur lightweight championship against Maine Amateur Wrestling Alliance Hall of Famer פּאַט קעלי(3-0). At age 52, Kelly will be the oldest fighter to ever challenge for an NEF title.

 

In addition to the fights, legendary boxer יעקב “Buster” דאָוגלאַס (38-6-1, 25 קאָס) will make an appearance atNEF 29as the guest of honor. Douglas will hold an hour-long meet-and-greet with fans at the Colisee from 6 pm צו 7 pm prior to the opening bell. Longtime fans will remember Douglas as the architect of the greatest upset in professional sports history with his knockout of “ייַזן” מייק טיסאָן (50-6, 44 קאָס) אין 1990 to claim the world heavyweight title. Douglas halted the 37-fight undefeated streak that opened Tyson’s pro career.

MAINE GETS ITS OWN VERSION OF MCGREGOR-MAYWEATHER WITH JUNE 17 SUPERFIGHT

 

 

פֿאַר באַלדיק מעלדונג: לעוויסטאָן, מיין (מייַ 19, 2017) – It was once rare for two athletes from different combat sports disciplines to compete against one another. אין 1963, legendary catch wrestler and judo practitioner Gene Lebell took on journeyman boxer Milo Savage in a match credited as the grandfather of modern mixed-martial-arts (ממאַ). שפּעטער, אין 1976, boxing world heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali faced Japanese wrestler and martial artist Antonio Inoki in an exhibition bout in Tokyo broadcast globally on closed-circuit television, a precursor to pay-per-view.

 

Recent years have seen more and more MMA fighters and boxers transition between the two sports. For some time now, rumors have swirled over a potential meeting of boxing mega-star Floyd Mayweather and reigning UFC lightweight kingpin Conor McGregor. Should the bout happen, it will undoubtedly be one of the highest-ever grossing matchups financially. And while both sides work out the details for that contest, Maine fight fans will get their own superfight on Saturday, יוני 17 in Lewiston when רוססעלל “The Haitian SensationLamour, דזשוניער. (15-2, 7 קאָס – boxing record) מיץ ברוס “שיין יינגל” בויינגטאָן (14-9 – MMA record) in a six-round middleweight boxing match. It will be the boxing headliner of a hybrid MMA and boxing event presented by New England Fights (נעף) at the venerable Androscoggin Bank Colisee.

 

It is not that boxers and MMA fighters have never met each other in Maine in the past. They do often in NEF, which promotes both sports. What makes this asuperfightis the status of each athlete in the state. טאַקע, Lamour and Boyington are to the current local fight scene what Mayweather and McGregor are to the global scene. They are both mega-stars in-state, each with his own army of loyal fans.

 

With all the talk of McGregor versus Mayweather, it’s an interesting match,” said Lamour’s coach and head of the Portland Boxing Club Bob Russo. “One of the best middleweights in New England in boxing versus one of the best lightweights in New England in MMA . I was pleasantly surprised when we were called out by Boyington. We had been offered a few different opponents that we agreed to and I guess they had second thoughts. Then we got the call that this challenge was on the table. This is something that will create a real buzz among boxing and MMA fans.

 

Lamour is the face of present-day professional boxing in Maine. He won more than 100 amateur bouts and is an eight-time regional Golden Gloves champion, a five-time New England regional champion and a Bronze Medalist in the 2009 USA Boxing championships among numerous other accomplishments. Lamour competed in the semi-pro World Series of Boxing where he was ranked number-one in the North American middleweight conference. ווי אַ פאַכמאַן, Lamour has been outstanding. He captured the New England Middleweight Title in 2014. Lamour has competed on ESPN’s פרייַטיק נאַכט פייץ boxing series before a national audience.

 

I will fight anyone that ends up in front of me,” said Lamour. “I respect the MMA fighters, they are all tough guys, but to challenge in the boxing ring is a major mistake. I’ll be in great shape and ready. He better be too!”

 

ברוס בויינגטאָן, אַ וועטעראַן פון דער פאַרייניקטע שטאַטן מאַרינע קאָר (וסמק), is no stranger to the boxing ring. He won his professional boxing debut in 2014 on an NEF card. Boyington is a world-class striker. He is a second-degree black belt in Taekwondo, an eight-time Maine state champion and a two-time national champion with countless tournament championships and medals to his credit in the traditional martial art.

 

It is Boyington’s success in the MMA cage, אָבער, for which he is most well known. His flashy striking and knockout prowess earned him a reputation as thehuman highlight-reelof NEF. He captured the NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Title in 2014 and defended it successfully three times before relinquishing the belt to sign with the global World Series of Fighting (ווסאָף) promotion in 2016.

 

Since signing with WSOF, Boyington has fought on some of the largest stages the world has to offer, including Madison Square Garden in New York City on the undercard of an event broadcast nationally on NBC. He has traveled as far as Russia to fight for major international promotion Absolute Championship Berkut (אַקב). With WSOF taking some time to regroup under new ownership as theProfessional Fighters League,” Boyington was looking to stay active while awaiting his next national bout. The opportunity to fight in front of his many hometown fans one more time was irresistible.

 

Boxing is his game, but I’ve had 25 professional fights and over 100 Taekwondo fights in my time,” האט בויינגטאָן. “I’m excited and honored to share the ring with the best boxing has to offer. The only thing I’m ever after is a challenge, and I have one in Russell. It’s exciting to compete back home where it all essentially began for me with NEF, so I thank Matt (פּעטערסאָן, NEF co-owner) and Nick (DiSalvo, NEF co-owner) for the opportunity and to Russelllet’s dance baby!”

The fight will represent the first appearance for Quirk in the NEF boxing ring. After a stellar amateur career, Quirk turned pro in late 2014. He has been perfect (5-0, 3 קאָס) over the course of his pro career thus far. When Quirk steps into the ring onיוני 17, it will have been more than a year-and-a-half since his last fight, and he is looking forward to competing once again. He trains out of the Portland Boxing Club (פּבק) and works as a firefighter with the Portland Fire DepartmentLocal 740 IAFF. Quirk also served his country for four years as a member of the Coast Guard.

 

I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring and getting to work,” said Quirk immediately following a training session at PBC. “We’ve had a good camp so far, and I’m training hard for this fight. I’m grateful for NEF considering me for this card and I’m ready to put on a show.

 

Borngod Washington is about as seasoned of a veteran as one will find in the boxing world. The native of Queens, New York has fought in the pro ranks since 2007. Washington’s career highlight came in 2011 when he scored a fourth-round TKO victory over Ricky Dawson (4-1, 1 קאָ), brother of former light-heavyweight champion of the world Chad Dawson (34-5, 19 קאָס). Washington also took current light-heavyweight contender Sean Monaghan (28-0, 17 קאָס) the distance in a four-round bout, losing a majority decision on the judges’ סקאָרעקאַרדס. He currently trains with John Wesley Meekins (25-5-2, 17 קאָס) אין ניו יארק. Meekins challenged Meldrick Taylor (38-8-1, 20 קאָס) for the IBF Junior Welterweight Title in 1989.

 

I’m excited to come to Maine and fight with my new trainer John Wesley Meekins in my corner,” האט וואשינגטאן. “I’m returning to form and ready to go, and I thank NEF for the opportunity to fight in Maine. I’ve got people from different areas coming to see the fight, and I know I’ll be ready”.

(7-1, 1 קאָ), son of former world title challenger Ray Oliveira, סיסטער. (47-11-2, 22 קאָס), his first loss.

BARRY OUT, ORTOLANI RETURNS TO NEW ENGLAND TO FIGHT KRAMLICH

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (ויגוסט 26, 2016) – He has one of the largest and most passionate fanbases of any New England fighter, און איצט John Ortolani (0-0 באָקסינג, 8-10 ממאַ) will return to New England Fights (נעף) after a two-and-a-half year absence at “נעף 25: HEROES & VILLAINS” אויף סעפּטעמבער 10 אין לעוויסטאָן. Ortolani, אָבער, will not be competing in the NEF MMA cage. He will make his professional boxing debut that evening, stepping in to replace Connor Barry (0-1) קעגן CaseyBuzzsawKramlich (4-0-1, 2 קאָס) in a four-round middleweight contest.

 

John Ortolani has been a fixture of the New England MMA scene since 2009. It is well-documented that Ortolani is a two-sport athlete. In addition to fighting MMA, he is a midfielder in Major League Lacrosse (MLL) where he has played for the Boston Cannons, Rochester Rattlers and Florida Launch. Recent years have seen Ortolani take up residence in Tampa, Florida where he has continued competing in MMA out of South Tampa Jiu-Jitsu & ממאַ. A native of Billerica, מאַססאַטשוסעטץ, he looks forward to making the trip north to New England where he will have the opportunity to once again fight closer to home in front of his friends and family.

 

I am excited to be fighting back in Maine again,” said Ortolani. “I’d like to thank (NEF owners) מאַט (פּעטערסאָן) and Nick (DiSalvo) for having me back. This will be my first time stepping in the ring and I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve wanted to test myself in a boxing match for years and now is my chance. Casey is a great opponent and I’m happy I could fill in and give him a good fight. I am a true martial artist and can’t wait to test my hands. It’s been almost three years since fighting for NEF. Get ready for an exciting fight.

 

At the other end of the spectrum, Casey Kramlich has made a second home of the boxing ring. Training out of the Portland Boxing Club in Portland, מיין, Kramlich had an extensive amateur boxing career prior to turning professional in 2014. This past spring he gave Jason Kelly (5-1, 3 קאָס) his first taste of defeat in the ring. Kramlich followed up that win with a dominant technical knockout victory over Zenon Herrera (0-2) in the third round of Kramlich’s NEF debut atNEF 24.

 

I’m looking forward to fighting on an NEF card again,” said Kramlich. “I’ve been training hard and ready to put my talent on display. My opponent has a little weight advantage on me, but I plan on using my speed and angles to pick him apart.

NEF WILL TAKE FIGHT FANS TO THE PROMISED LAND THIS FATHER’S DAY WEEKEND

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (יוני 3, 2016) – It will be a celebration of all things Americana when New England Fights (נעף) returns to the Androscoggin Bank Colisée on Saturday, יוני 18, 2016. The wildly popular fight promotion will once again give fans a full night of mixed-martial-arts (ממאַ) and professional boxing action.

 

In the main event of the boxing portion of the fight card, בראַנדאָן “דעם קאַנאָן” בערי (11-1-1) will defend the Northeast Junior Welterweight Title against challenger יעקב “The Motor City Bad BoyLester (10-9-1). The two fought to a draw on the judgesscorecards this past April in Lewiston. They agreed to rematch with Berry’s title on the line. דאס מאָל, אָבער, there will be an odd number of rounds (seven to be exact) to make the chances of another draw very slim.

 

Also on the boxing portion of the card, former USA New England Middleweight Champion רוססעלל “The Haitian SensationLamour (13-2) און CaseyThe BuzzsawKramlich (4-0-1) from the Portland Boxing Club in Portland, Maine will both make their respective NEF Boxing debuts.

 

The professional MMA portion of the card will see דזשעסי “די וויקינג” עריקסאַן (6-5) return to the cage after his third unsuccessful attempt at capturing the lightweight title this past April. Erickson will have his work cut out for him in the form of the always tough Amos Collins (4-5) at a catchweight of 161-pounds.

 

Erickson’s teammate, מאַט “קען ליאַלקע” דענינג (3-2), will also see action on the professional MMA card when he meets Brandon Bushaw (1-2) אין אַ פעאַטהערוועיגהט באַוט.

 

The amateur MMA card will be headlined by a flyweight title rematch as ריאַן בורגעסס (2-0) defends against the former champion, and the athlete he took the title from, דאַסטין וועינאָטט (4-4). Veinott’s loss to Burgess last fall via split decision put a stop to his four-fight win streak.

 

Also on the amateur card will be 46 יאָר-אַלט דר. סטיוו באַנג, סיסטער. (1-1), a bariatric surgeon from Auburn, מיין. In an unplanned homage to Father’s Day, he will be joined on the fight card by his sons סטיוו באַנג, דזשוניער. (3-5),שאָן באַנג (1-1), Skyler Bang (0-0) and foster son Conner Murphy (1-0).

HE BUZZSAW ARRIVES IN NEF TO CUT THE COMPETITION DOWN

לעוויסטאָן, מיין (יוני 1, 2016) – Just one day removed from the announcement that Russell Lamour, דזשוניער. (13-2, 6 קאָס) would make his debut on a New England Fights (נעף) קאָרט, the fight promotion announced that Lamour’s teammate CaseyThe BuzzsawKramlich (4-0-1, 2 קאָס) would also be featured on the “נעף 24: PROMISED LANDprofessional boxing event. אויף יוני 18, 2016 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisée, Kramlich will face זענאָן “K-Bar” העררעראַ (0-1) in a four-round super welterweight contest.

 

Along with Lamour, Kramlich trains at the Portland Boxing Club in Portland, מיין. Kramlich, to date, has yet to taste defeat in the boxing ring as a professional. Earlier this spring, Kramlich handed Boston’s Jason Kelly (5-1) the first loss of his professional career on a fight card in Salem, New Hampshire. He dominated the first two rounds of the fight before the previously-undefeated Kelly was unable to answer the bell to open round three.

 

Last fall, Kramlich fought to a draw against Antonio Chaves Fernandez (6-23-2) on a card in Portland, מיין. It is the only mark outside of the win column on Kramlich’s record. אויף יוני 18, Kramlich plans to add another notch to that win column at the expense of Zenon Herrera.

 

I’m very excited to be fighting on an NEF card,” said Kramlich. “Looking forward to putting on a great show for the fans. I’ve been training hard, I’m hungry and I’m looking to come out on top victorious and stay undefeated.

 

Zenon Herrera is one of only a small handful of athletes to have competed in both the NEF MMA cage and the boxing ring. Herrera made his boxing debut last fall in a losing effort to Tollison Lewis (2-1). אויף יוני 18, Herrera will be looking for his first win in NEF. He is a veteran of both the United States Army and Marine Corps, בעת געדינט אַ קאַמביינד נייַן יאָרן צווישן די צוויי מיליטערישע צווייגן.
