Lewiston, Maine (Novanm 16, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe evènman pwochen li yo, “Nef XX: Yon istwa de VYOLANS” sa a Samdi, Novanm 21, 2015 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisée nan nan Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – melanje-masyal arts- (Mma) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. In a featured lightweight amateur MMA bout, Jason “2nd chans” Lachance (2-2) ap pran sou CJ egyèr (4-2) nan yon pwa batay nan 155-liv.

 

Lachance la ap vini sou yon soumisyon viktwa premye-wonn sou David Thompson (0-1) nan “Nef XIX” this past September. He is confident in his abilities and predicts victory over Ewer when they meet this weekend. While Lachance’s future in the sport appears brighter every day, li te pwomèt nou pa neglije travay la nan men ak kite lafwa kretyen l 'gide l' nan karyè li.

 

“Mwen pral bat CJ nan nenpòt fason posib,” di Lachance. “MMA is a sport where anything can happen. I am fully prepared for whatever may come on the 21st. I will focus on my next opponent when this fight is out of my way. Mwen pa pral neglije advèsè mwen. Bondye ap mete kanpe tan kap vini an pou m ', ke li te gen konsa byen lwen.”

 

Lachance credits his faith and the sport of MMA with helping him conquer his much-publicized addiction to heroin. He began training over two years ago at MMA Athletix in Bath, Maine, kote li te tou ansanm Victory Legliz ministè a te nan jimnastik la nan Lè sa a, mèt kay Ryan Cowette- (2-3).

 

“Mwen te beni ak yon opòtinite etonan, and I couldn’t be more grateful. The fight game is the highest of highs and lowest of lows. Moman ki pi defini nan karyè mwen kout pa te vini soti nan anndan kalòj la, Men, nan aprann ak ap grandi jou an jou kòm yon gason ak kòm yon avyon de gè.”

 

Dènyèman, Lachance ak koekipyèr Norman Fox (4-2) purchased the MMA Athletix gym from Cowette after Cowette decided to redirect his focus to his roofing business. When the challenges of small business ownership reared its head, Lachance yon lòt fwa ankò pèmèt lafwa li gid l '.

 

“Achte jimnastik la te yon moman gwo pou tou de Norman ak tèt mwen,” deklare Lachance. “Nou te gen yo chita retounen lakay yo epi reyèlman evalye sa nou te vle soti nan karyè nou an, and also out of our business. We quickly realized that with full time jobs, nou pa gen tan yo dwe antrenè, fòmatè, fighters and business owners and still expect to succeed. We prayed on it and God sent us the perfect team of coaches and trainers, ansanm ak yon gwoup nouvo sou konbatan leve, li vini.

 

“Mma te deja chanje lavi m 'nan plizyè fason. Mwen atann mwen yo pran l 'nan tèt la, kòm yon pwopriyetè biznis ak kòm yon avyon de gè. Bondye te ban m 'opòtinite pou yo viv rèv mwen an, jou apre jou.”

Lewiston, Maine (Septanm 29, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe evènman pwochen li yo, “Nef XX: Yon istwa de VYOLANS” sou Samdi, Novanm 21, 2015 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisée nan nan Lewiston, Maine. The event will feature a first for Maine – melanje-masyal arts- (Mma) bouts and professional boxing bouts on the same event with an MMA cage and a boxing ring set up side-by-side. Earlier today, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur lightweight bout to the MMA portion of the fight card. CJ egyèr (4-2) se pwograme fè fas a Jason “Dezyèm chans” Lachance (2-2) nan yon pwa batay nan 155-liv.

 

CJ Ewer is a veteran of the United States Air Force security forces. He is a product of Young’s MMA in Bangor, Maine where he has honed his craft under coach Chris Young. Ewer had one of the most explosive starts to a career in NEF history, winning his first three amateur bouts in a matter of just ten weeks. Earlier this month at “Nef XIX,” Brok goumen, yo bat yon trè difisil Ricky Dexter (3-2). All of Ewer’s fights to date have been in the welterweight and middleweight divisions. The cut to 155-pounds will be a first for Ewer.

 

“Apre l ap gade videyo a Lachance, li nan evidan li vin antre nan kalòj la byen prepare,” te note brok nan opozan l '. “Li te sèlman pèdi nan Jarod Tyler ak Dom Cofone, who are both hardcore fighters, and his win against Steve Bang shows that he has a lot of different skills and drive. It’ll be a great opportunity to show how I can compete at 155.”

 

Jason Lachance se yon manm nan mma Athletix ki baze nan Bath, Maine. He has faced stiff competition in the first several fights of his career, kòm brok note, so Lachance is accustomed to standing across the cage from the cream of the crop. He is coming off a first round submission victory over David Thompson (0-1) pi bonè mwa sa a nan “Nef XIX.” Lachance will look to continue his winning ways when he meets Ewer at “Nef XX” sou Novanm 21.

 

“Mwen se eksite pou yon lòt opòtinite yo ka resevwa nan kalòj la,” di Lachance. “I expect an exciting fight no matter where it ends up. Ewer is tough competition. I am looking forward to this one.”

MMA ATHLETIX PROSPECT TO MEET RETURNING FAN FAVORITE AT NEF XVIII

Kite yon kòmantè

Lewiston, Maine (Avril 28, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe dizwityèm melanje-masyal-boza li yo (Mma) evènman, “Nef XVIII Atik: Made in America,” sou Samdi, Jen 13, 2015 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisee la nan Lewiston, Maine. Earlier today, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur lightweight bout to the fight card. That bout will feature Jason “Dezyèm chans” Lachance (1-1) taking on the returning “Dangerous” Dom “Hands of Stone” Cofone (5-5) nan yon pwa batay nan 155-liv.

 

Jason Lachance of Brunswick, Maine made his MMA debut in May of 2014 nan “Nef XIII.” He dropped a decision that night, but Lachance impressed many with his performance against the more-experienced Jarrod Tyler (3-1). He would return to the NEF cage this past February with a victory over Steve Bang, Jr. (3-3) via desizyon inanim. Lachance is a product of Ryan Cowette’s (2-2) MMA Athletix gym and Victory Church ministry, both located in Bath, Maine.

 

“God has blessed me with another opportunity to step inside the NEF cage and do what I love to do,” di Lachance. “An opportunity I am truly grateful for. I am focused on the task at hand and on June 13th, I will be ready for whatever comes my way.”

 

A true veteran of the NEF amateur ranks, Dom Cofone has produced many memorable moments in the promotion’s cage over the years. Cofone won a Class A State Championship in 2001 wrestling for Westbrook High School in Westbrook, Maine. He put together a stellar record of 117-28 during his high school wrestling career. Cofone has taken the last few months off from MMA competition to concentrate on coaching the Westbrook youth wrestling team. With his previous gym, Balanced Ground MMA, on hiatus, Cofone has recently begun training at Jay Jack (12-7) and Amanda Buckner’s (11-5) Academy of MMA in Portland, Maine.

 

“I took some time off to help coach my son’s youth wrestling team – shout out to all the Westbrook Wolfpack kids,” said Cofone. “I also needed to heal up a bit from a very active two years in and out of the cage. I’m feeling rejuvenated. I just started training back at the Academy and am super excited to learn as much as I can from such a great team. I’ve met Jason before – he seems like a really great guy. I was at both of his fights, so I know he’s going to be a tough-as-nails, game opponent. I was in the stands for the last NEF event and it just didn’t seem right without ‘Dominick The Donkey’ ringing out of the speakers. This is a great match-up for the fans and I hope to see the Androscoggin Bank Colisee packed. Thank you to everyone who comes out to support local MMA.”
