Портленд, Мен (Лютого 26, 2018) - New England Бої (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland onКвітня 14, 2018 з наступним подією змішаних бойових мистецтв в продукту, що просувається боротися в, “NEF 33: Riptide.” Раніше сьогодні, NEF announced the addition of an amateur catchweight bout to the card. Девід Томпсон (1-2) зіткнеться Прийшов Арнольд (2-0) at a fight weight of 140-pounds.

 

David Thompson will be appearing in what he says will be his last fight at “NEF 33.” A member of the Shatterproof Combat Club, Thompson has appeared three times in the NEF cage since his debut in the fall of 2015. He scored a first-round technical knockout victory over Richmond Pierce Wiegman (1-1) in his second amateur bout. The fight with Arnold will be Thompson’s first since a loss to Caleb Costello (3-4) in early 2016.

 

“I’m thankful to get back in there,” stated Thompson. “Kam is an exciting fighter, and I will be ready to leave everything in the cage, one last time.”

 

Undefeated Kam Arnold has emerged as one of the most-promising new prospects on the NEF roster over the last several months. He started his amateur career with a fast finish of Glenn Kasabian (1-3) last June, and followed up that performance with a first-round technical knockout of Kyle Kenney (0-1) раніше в цьому місяці в “NEF 32.” A native of Casco, Мен, Arnold is a product of Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) Льюїстон. A win over Thompson would position Arnold closer to a shot at the coveted bantamweight championship.

 

“I’m pretty stoked to get back in the cage against an NEF veteran like David Thompson,” said Arnold. “This should be a fun fight not only for me, but for the fans too. When all is said and done, Я буду 3-0. 2018 is going to be my year. The 135-pound strap will be mine before the end of the year – mark my words! Until that day, I will continue to put in work at the gym and take it one fight at a time. Девід, I hope you’re ready for a war.”

 

“Kam Arnold has a unique focus and vision for his career,” сказав NEF співвласник і сваха Метт Петерсон. “He understands his potential to make an impact in the sport. David Thompson didn’t hesitate to accept this bout – he’s excited to have the opportunity to face a rising talent in his final fight. Both guys have promised to bring it – and when that happens, we all win.”
