NEF_FNVXIII_madeinUSA_FB_final+(1)

Lewiston, Maine (Jona 10, 2015) - New England ady (NEF), Amerika isa-paritra iray ady fampiroboroboana, dia hanao ny fahavalo ambin'ny folo samy hafa firenena-miaramila-Zavakanto (MMA) zava-nitranga, “NEF XVIII: Vita avy any AMERIKA,” Sabotsy ity alina, Jona 13, 2015 amin'ny Bank Androscoggin Colisee any Lewiston, Maine. Vao haingana, headliners Bruce “Manja Boy” Boyington (10-8), ny NEF MMA Professional maivana Tompon-daka, ary John “Kilasy voalohany” Ray(2-7) nanatevin-daharana NEF mpiara-tompon'ny sy ny matchmaker Matt Peterson tamin'ny manokana “Head-to-Lohan'ny” edition of the NEF Podcast. Boyington and Raio discussed the upcoming rematch and the controversy surrounding their first meeting in February 2014, amin'ny lohahevitra hafa.

 

The interview quickly turned to the top of the first fight. Raio appeared to apply a rear-naked choke to Boyington on the mat late in the first round. Boyington began waving his hand in the air and referee Jimmy Bickford quickly stepped in to stop the fight. Much has been made of the infamous “tanana onja.” While Bickford saw it as a sign of Boyington’s submission, Boyington miady fa izy nidika fotsiny ny mpankafy azy tao amin'ny vahoaka fa amin'ny batery fiarovana tsy manao na fahasimbana.

 

“Afaka milaza aminao fa tapitra alina,” recalled Raio of the first bout. “Raha tsorina dia, Bruce had given me his back. When I took his back, I had the hooks in and I had the rear-naked choke across his jaw line. I was trying to pressure it under his throat, ary tahaka ny noraisiny ny ankavia bicep sy ny ankavia nandeha ambadiky ny lohany, ny ref nitsahatra ny ady… Gaga aho nahita fa efa Tovozina satria, ny marina, Fantatro fa nanana betsaka ny tsindry eo amin'ny valanoranony… Raha ny marina dia nanofahofa, izay sucks ho azy.”

 

“Amin'izany toe-javatra, Aho mahatsiaro manokana Bickford mijery ahy, Aho hiatrika ny, dia mitranga noho ny vozonao, ary aho nanofahofa,” Said Boyington. “Olona rehetra tena mafy manomboka mierona ary tsaroako Bickford nanao hoe:, 'No Bruce, tsy afaka milaza fa '… Raha mihevitra fa hanaiky aho na azom-pahoriana aho, na dia tsy afaka miaina, you don’t tell the fighter, “Tsy afaka milaza izany,” you just jump in and you stop the fight. I feel like he made a mistake. I feel like he realizes that… Aho mahita zavatra maro samy hafa izay Jaona efa nilaza an-tserasera, ary maro ny zavatra hafa ny olona manao hoe:, and that’s when I really started to get bothered by what had happened. I felt like he could’ve handled it better.”

 

Talohan'ny Boyington manome ny ny indray, many felt he had been winning that first round. Tokoa, Boyington’s striking seemed to be on point that evening. Peterson asked both competitors to speculate on what would have happened had the referee not stopped the bout at that point.

 

“Tsy maintsy, Mino aho fa i Jaona dia efa nisy nandondòna avy,” stated Boyington emphatically. “Tsy mino aho iany aho hanaiky azy, because that would be his best chance with me. He’s strong enough to defend a submission.”

 

“Mihevitra aho fa raha tsy hijanona ref tamin'ny fotoana, Fony izaho teny an ny valanoranony miaraka amin'ny forearm sy hahatratra aho ambadiky ny vozony,” Ray manombatombana, “I believe my arm would’ve slid under his throat and it would’ve ended sometime soon before the round. Izany, Tsy mino aho izany fa efa lasa ho any amin'ny fihodinana faharoa.”

 

Tamin'ny andron'i, herinandro sy ny volana manaraka ny ady, both Boyington’s and Raio’s massive fan-followings have been very vocal on social media regarding the outcome of the bout. The heated debate has raged between both sides for well over a year now. With so much at stake for each side at “NEF XVIII,” na mpanao fanatanjahan-tena nanohina amin'ny zavatra ny lalao miverina dia midika ho azy ireo, ary izay mila ho avy hizaha toetra io faran'ny herinandro.

 

“Fotsiny aho dia tsy afaka hiditra any, ary nokapohiny John,” Said Boyington. “Na ny mpankafy miandry fa… Tsy afaka hiditra any fotsiny amin'ny Faha-13 Jonaand beat John Raio. I gotta go in there and destroy him. Or I still lose out on this fight. Fantatro izany, and I’m gonna go in there and make that statement. And I’m gonna do it with one arm, fa ny hafa tsy sandry na dia miasa amin'izao fotoana izao… I haven’t worried about this date from day one. It’s nothing to do with John Raio. I don’t disrespect the guy. I don’t not like the guy. He’s a good man. I’m just at another level. I need to show up and prove that. That’s what it is to me. It’s not about me beating John. It’s about me showing everybody where I belong.”

 

“Amin'ny momba ny Bruce nahavita ahy haingana, ary manao izany mora, ary tsy tena manahy momba ny ady be loatra, Vao mahita izany tsy nanaja toy ny zavatra maro ny nilaza tamiko, ny fianakaviako sy ny namako,” replied Raio. “Nisy fotoana taorian'ny ady farany, rehefa fiarahabana olona ahy (amin'ny Facebook) and he’d go on like a one or two paragraph rant on every single comment everyone had put on my page for like three days straight. Izany, rehefa afaka izany, dia nanao hoe: 'Bruce, ary izaho dia tsy tena namana intsony,’ so I deleted him. I liked him before that fight… Fa raha tsy manaja ahy ny olona toy izany dia efa sarotra ny toy ny lehilahy.”

FEATHERWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

Leave a comment

 

Lewiston, Maine (Mey 21, 2015) - New England ady (NEF), Amerika isa-paritra iray ady fampiroboroboana, dia hanao ny fahavalo ambin'ny folo samy hafa firenena-miaramila-Zavakanto (MMA) zava-nitranga, “NEF XVIII: Vita avy any AMERIKA,” amin'ny Asabotsy, Jona 13, 2015 amin'ny Bank Androscoggin Colisee any Lewiston, Maine. Vao maraina androany, the promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the fight card. The matchup will feature Jeremy Tyler (4-3) manatrika Johnny Crafts (3-0) at the featherweight limit of 145-pounds.

 

Jeremy Tyler will be making his return to the NEF cage after an extended absence of nine months. A member of Marcus Davis’s famed Team Irish gym in Brewer, Maine, Tyler will look to rebound from the first back-to-back losses of his career. Both of those losses came to Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) competitors. It is a gym affiliated with Johnny Crafts’ team New England United (NEW), so the Jona 13 fight will be an opportunity for Jeremy to gain a measure of revenge as well. Like his opponent at “NEF XVIII,” Tyler has proven himself a submission specialist with all four of his victories coming by way of capitulation.

 

“I’m very excited to be stepping into the NEF cage for the first time in 2015,” said Tyler. “I am looking forward to the opportunity to fight John Crafts who is a highly ranked MMA fighter with a very good Jiu Jitsu game. I believe the NEF fans will be very happy with the match-up and feel this will make for an entertaining fight. Expect to see an improved performance from me. I took some time off after my last fight to focus, build upon my technique and add to my overall skill sets. I am ready to unleash the game I’ve been developing in the cage so Faha-13 Jona can’t get here fast enough.”

 

Originally scheduled to challenge for the NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Championship at “NEF XVIII,” Johnny Crafts was left without a fight after his original opponent pulled out due to injury. That was until Jeremy Tyler stepped up to the challenge this week. This fight will mark the first time Johnny Crafts, who holds a brown belt in BJJ, has competed above the bantamweight limit of 135-pounds. Crafts was voted the “2014 Rookie ny Taona” by NEF fans.

 

“I’m very excited to be fighting Jeremy Tyler,” said Crafts. “He’s a well-rounded fighter with good experience. I’m looking to test the waters at 145 for my first time and see how I feel fighting up. I was pretty disappointed in the title fight falling through, but I assure everyone that this fight will be just as exciting to watch.”

In a highly-anticipated rematch, NEF MMA Professional maivana Champion Bruce “Manja Boy” Boyington (10-8) takes on rivalJohn “Kilasy voalohany” Ray (2-7) in a non-title catchweight contest. Raio scored a victory over Boyington by rear-naked choke in their initial meeting in February 2014. That win, na izany aza, was marred in controversy as Boyington contends the referee mistook his wave to his fans in the crowd as a sign of submission. Na inona na inona, Boyington and Raio will look to settle the score on Jona 13 ao Lewiston.

 

NEF homegrown talent, ary 2014 “Fighter ao amin'ny Taona,” Crowsneck Boutin (0-0) will debut in the professional ranks against “The Junkyard Dog” Ryan Cowette (2-2) ao amin'ny middleweight bout.

“NEF XVIII” will mark the first time NEF has crowned a set of amateur champions. The amateur card will feature five championship title bouts. Among those bouts will be a heavyweight title fight between the popular Billy “Bigfoot” Leahy (2-1) aryRyan Glover (1-0). Glover won a 2011 state championship wrestling for Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine.

LIGHTWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO PRO PORTION OF NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (Mey 8, 2015) - New England ady (NEF), Amerika isa-paritra iray ady fampiroboroboana, dia hanao ny fahavalo ambin'ny folo samy hafa firenena-miaramila-Zavakanto (MMA) zava-nitranga, “NEF XVIII: Made in America,” amin'ny Asabotsy, Jona 13, 2015 amin'ny Bank Androscoggin Colisee any Lewiston, Maine. Vao maraina androany, the promotion announced the addition of a professional lightweight bout to the fight card. Jesse “The Viking” Erickson (4-4) no voatondro hihaona Zenon Herrera (0-0) in what will be Herrera’s professional debut.

 

Erickson is a mainstay of the NEF promotion. The native of Auburn, Maine made his amateur debut at NEF I in February 2012. All fourteen of his bouts have been hosted in the NEF cage except one which was part of an NEF co-promotion with Bellator.

 

Currently a coach at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) – a New England United (NEW) Affiliate – Erickson challenged unsuccessfully twice last fall for the NEF MMA Lightweight Title, dropping back-to-back losses to Bruce Boyington (10-8). Tamin'ny volana lasa, Erickson returned to the cage against Florida’s Mark DeFord (0-4). The Viking came out aggressive, not letting up with a barrage of lefts, rights and knees. It was a departure from Erickson’s trusted ground game, but it took less than two minutes for him to knock DeFord out cold. If Erickson was looking to make a statement, then that statement was received loud and clear by the raucous crowd of over 2,000.

 

“After back to back losses, I’ve really focused in on some of my weak points,” said Erickson. “Araka ny ady farany, I felt much more confident and relaxed, and I think it showed in my performance. I will continue to get better and show everyone the fighter I’ve always known I could be. I’ll never fight safe, try to eke out a decision, or have a boring fight. Come watch me fight and see something special. The Viking is back and he’s swinging Thor’s hammer now.”

 

Zenon Herrera, an independent fighter based out of Skowhegan, Maine, began his MMA amateur career in the fall of 2012. Having fought predominantly in Florida previously, he made his NEF debut last month at “NEF XVII” in a losing effort to a very tough Ricky Dexter (3-0). Herrera is a military veteran, having served four years in the United States Army and five years in the United States Marine Corps. He looks forward to making the transition from the amateur to professional ranks and the new challenges it will bring.

 

“I’m very much looking forward to this chance of taking myself to the next level of MMA,” Said Herrera. “Jesse Erickson is a tough dude and that will make this match all the better. I’m also looking forward to representing the NEF, Macho Fighter, Combatives Gear, and the USMC with all of the pride and honor that they deserve with everything I do in MMA from this point forward.”

 

NEF MMA manaraka hetsika, “NEF XVIII: Made in America” will originate from the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, Maine on June 13, 2015. Tickets ho “NEF XVIII” manomboka amin'ny fotsiny $25 ary amin'izao fotoana izao dia eo amin'ny amidy amin'ny www.TheColisee.com na tamin'ny fiantsoana ny Colisee birao boaty amin'ny207.783.2009 X 525.
