NEF RETURNS TO LEWISTON ON SUPER BOWL WEEKEND WITH AN MMA SUPER CARD

Legg igjen en kommentar

Lewiston, Maine (Januar 19, 2018) – The night before the National Football League (NFL) delivers its 2017-2018 season finale, New England Fights (NEF) will return to the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston for the first time in eight months as the fight promotion presents “NEF 32: Super Lørdag.” And while New England football fans will have to wait until this Sunday’s AFC championship game to find out whether their beloved Patriots will play in the Super Bowl, area mixed-martial-arts fans learned today which of their favorites will compete at “NEF 32” as promotion executives released the full fight card for the February 3rd begivenhet.

 

 

I hovedturneringen av kvelden, Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (14-11) tar på Taylor Trahan (7-8) at a catchweight of 150-pounds. One of the biggest MMA stars ever to come out of Maine, Boyington will make his return to the NEF cage after a two-year absence that saw him compete on the global stage in places like Russia and New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden. Trahan makes his third trip to Maine to compete. He is coming off a win over Connor Barry (3-2) i fjor høst.

 

 

Aaron “Relentless” Lacey (4-1) ansikter av med Josh Parker (6-9) i en fjærvekt bout. Lacey suffered the first loss of his pro career in November when a fight he was arguably on the way to winning was stopped by a doctor due to a cut on Lacey’s head. Parker will look to continue his recent success in the MMA cage after recent victories over Andre Belcarris (0-2) og Derek Shorey (4-9).

 

 

CJ Ewer (3-0) is out to make history by becoming the first competitor to hold NEF championships simultaneously in multiple weight divisions. Ewer is the reigning NEF Pro Middleweight Champion. Ved “NEF 32,” he has the opportunity to capture the NEF Pro Welterweight Title when he meets Kemran Lachinov (5-2) for the vacant strap.

 

 

Also in professional welterweight action will be Mike “Den Mustache” Hansen (5-8) og Jesse “Viking” Erickson (9-7) in a fight billed as “The Berserker vs. The Viking.” Hansen and Erickson have developed a rivalry as coaches of local gyms Berserkers MMA and Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ), henholdsvis.

 

 

Speaking of which, Nate Boucher (2-1), a product of CMBJJ, og Ryan Burgess (2-2) of Berserkers MMA will headline the amateur portion of the fight card. The flyweights, former teammates on the Mountain Valley High School wrestling squad, have engaged in a recent war of words heading into the bout. The winner will be in line for a shot at the amateur flyweight title later this spring.

 

 

2017 NEF “Rookie of the Year” Jayda “Lil Killah” Bailey (1-0) returns to the cage on February 3rd to meet Florida’s Amanda Gallo (0-1). Bailey made history in November at “NEF 31” by becoming the youngest competitor ever to compete, (and win), i NEF buret. She turned 18, the legal age for competing in MMA in Maine, just a week prior to the event.

Legg igjen en kommentar

Lewiston, Maine (Desember 27, 2017) - New England Fights (NEF) returnerer til Lewiston påLørdag, Februar 3, 2018 med kampen promotering neste mixed-kampsport-arrangement, “NEF 32: Super Lørdag.” Tidligere i dag, NEF announced the addition of an amateur women’s bantamweight bout to the card. Jayda “Lil Killah” Bailey(1-0) er planlagt å møte Amanda Gallo (0-1) på en kamp vekt på 135-pounds.

Jayda Bailey made headlines this year when she became the youngest athlete to ever compete in a sanctioned MMA fight in Maine. A mere eight days after her 18th birthday, den lovlige minstealderen for en MMA deltaker i staten, Bailey sette sammen en dominerende forestilling i sin debut mot Danae Dostie (0-1) ved “NEF 31.” It took her just over 90-seconds to pound out a TKO victory. So impressive was the win that it earned Bailey a nomination for “Rookie of the Year.” The fans agreed and voted the Hermon, Maine teenager as the recipient of the award. Bailey is currently a member of Young’s MMA of Bangor. This summer, på eksamen fra videregående skole, hun planlegger å flytte til Albuquerque, New Mexico der hun vil bli med Jackson Wink MMA Academy – hjem til mange topp UFC stjerner.

“Jeg kan ikke vente med å gå inn i buret igjen, og vise mine evner,” Said Bailey. “Jeg ser til å bli bedre hver gang jeg slåss, og jeg gleder meg til å stå overfor en ny utfordring.”

That new challenge will come in the form of Amanda Gallo. Gallo trains with Robson Moura Nations United (RMNU) basert i Tampa, Florida. She made her cage debut in the fall of 2016 mot Laine Orabona (2-2) on a fight card in Georgia. The thrilling contest went the distance and saw Gallo lose a very close split decision on the judges’ scorekort. She will come to Maine looking for the first win of her young career.
