NEF CAGES THE CAPE ON MAY 14 WITH THRILLING FIGHT CARD

Kite yon kòmantè

Hyannis, Massachusetts (Me 6, 2016) – It will be no day at the beach, but they might just leave some blood on the sand. New England Goumen (Nef) plans to storm Cape Cod on Samdi, Me 14, 2016 with the first-ever mixed-martial-arts (Mma) event to be held on the popular tourist destination. The northeast’s top regional fight promotion will pack up its cage in one week and make the 200-mile trek south from NEF’s base of operations in Lewiston, Maine to the Hyannis Youth & Community Center (HYCC).

 

The attention the event has received has been staggering. “The Cape Cod community has welcomed us with open arms,” said NEF co-owner and promoter Nick DiSalvo. “The HYCC is a great venue with an awesome staff. Patti Lloyd at the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce has been a huge help in making this event happen as well. And we have some fantastic new sponsors on the Cape like Bodystrong Fitness who have helped us spread the word.”

 

Vreman vre, the word has spread and ticket sales have been so strong, and demand so overwhelming, that the promotion had to order more chairs and tickets when cageside inventory sold out last week. “The fans were asking us to add some more cageside seats, so we happily accommodated them,” noted DiSalvo.

 

And fight fans in attendance will be treated to a night filled with wild cage action. The card is stacked with world class wrestlers and martial artists from Maine, Cape Cod and Massachusetts’ South Shore. Hyannis-based Team Juniko will be prominently featured in no less than six of the evening’s bouts.

 

Brendan “Lock Down” Battles (0-0) of Juniko is scheduled to make his professional MMA debut in the heavyweight main event, locking horns with Mike “Moustach nan” Hansen (4-3). Battles was a three-time All American wrestler out of nearby Nauset Regional High School where he won two state championships and three New England championships. Li te 2-0 as an amateur MMA fighter. Hansen has a wrestling pedigree of his own, having captured a state title for Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Hansen is a ten-year-plus veteran of the MMA cage.

 

The co-main event of the evening will feature a rematch from “NEF 15” nan Novanm nan 2014. “Enkasabl 2.0” Derek Shorey (3-6) will look to avenge a loss to Matt “Ken poupe” Denning (2-2). Shorey’s supporters have claimed for the past year-and-a-half that Denning’s submission victory was a fluke and that Denning would not be able to defeat Shorey a second time should the pair ever meet again. Those claims will be put to the test in Hyannis in this lightweight rematch.

 

“It was a short notice fight that NEF asked for, and I know Derek wanted a rematch,” di Denning. “After I beat him again, I’ll prove it wasn’t a fluke. I wanted this fight so I could get some new fans in Massachusetts and show my skills. I have had two losses in a row to great guys and want to get back in the win column.”

 

“I thought I could beat him the first time, and he caught me with an armbar,” Shorey admitted. “This time I will leave that cage the victor.”

 

“It’s one of those fights we always get asked whether there will be a rematch,” deklare nef ko-pwopriyetè ak promoteur Matt Peterson. “This will finally prove, once and for all, whether Matt Denning got lucky coming up with that armbar that night. Whatever you do, don’t blink! These two guys are finishers. Whatever the outcome, it’s not going to the judges. Someone’s getting knocked out or submitted in this one.”

 

In another pro fight, longtime NEF mainstay Crowsneck Boutin (1-2) will take on another promotion regular in the form of Ruben Redman (0-0). The bout will be Redman’s professional debut after six amateur fights with NEF in Maine. Boutin is a prolific striker based out of the Choi Institute in Portland. The fight will take place at the middleweight limit of 185-pounds.

 

The amateur headliner will see Dustin Veinott (4-4) in a flyweight showdown with Ryan “Razzle Dazzle” Kane (4-3). Veinott is the former NEF MMA Amateur Flyweight Champion. He dropped the title in a very close split decision loss to Ryan Burgess (2-0) mwa Novanm dènye. Kane, from Plymouth, Massachusetts, is a member of Team Juniko and an accomplished competitor in the ancient Greek martial art of Pankration.

 

A women’s fight will be prominently featured on the amateur card. Angela Young (1-1) se pwograme fè fas a Kylie O’Hearn (0-0). Young is coming off a big win just two weeks ago against Hannah Sparrell (1-1) nan “nef 22” nan Lewiston. O’Hearn, another product of Plymouth, Massachusetts and Team Juniko, will be making her amateur MMA debut. The fight will take place at the bantamweight limit of 135-pounds.

 

Young’s teammate Victor Irwin (1-0) will make the five-hour road trip along with her from Bangor, Maine to compete in Hyannis. Irwin will square off with newcomer Tracey Schryba (0-0) in the amateur light-heavyweight division.

 

Brewster’s Ed Forlenza (0-0) makes his amateur debut against Frank Johanson (0-1) in a 160-pound catchweight bout. Forlenza is a 2004 graduate of Nauset Regional High School where he was a standout on the wrestling team. Johanson’s opponent pulled out of their bout on fight day two weeks ago at “NEF 22.” Not one to let a good fight camp go to waste, Johanson agreed to take the fight with Forlenza in Hyannis.

 

In another 160-pound catchweight bout, Steve Bang (3-4) pran sou Fabian Miranda (2-0). Bang is a member of the famous father-sons fighting family of Auburn, Maine. Miranda represents Team Juniko and will look to add to his undefeated record in the fight with Bang.

MAIN EVENT ANNOUNCED FOR NEF MMA DEBUT ON CAPE COD

Kite yon kòmantè

Hyannis, Massachusetts (Me 3, 2016) - New England Goumen (Nef) Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe evènman pwochen li yo, "nèf 23: CAGE THE CAPE” on Samdi, Me 14, 2016 at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Earlier today, NEF announced the main event of the fight card. Brendan “Lock Down” Battles (0-0) has signed to face Mike “The Mustache” Hansen (4-3) in a professional bout at a fight weight of 265-pounds.

 

Brendan Battles is a native of Eastham, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. There, he was a three-time All American wrestler for Nauset Regional High School. During his high school career, Battles captured a total of two state championships and three New England championships with an amazing 161 wins to his credit prior to graduating in 2012. A multi-sport athlete, he later played defensive end and tackle for the University of Connecticut. Battles made his NEF debut earlier this year at “NEF 21: THE IMMORTALS” when he efficiently dispatched of Mike Hansen’s Berserkers teammate, Dave Smith (2-2) in the first round via TKO ref stoppage. Battles trains out of Gracie Fitness and is a member of Team Juniko based out of Hyannis.

 

“I look forward to Mike coming down to my backyard for my first professional fight,” said Battles. “I know he is a tough fighter, but I look forward to showcasing the skills I have acquired thus far as I continue my journey to become a well-rounded MMA fighter.”

 

Mike Hansen is the founding member of Berserkers MMA based out of Rumford, Maine. He won a Maine state championship in wrestling as a heavyweight in 2004. Hansen made his MMA debut shortly after graduating from high school, only to step away from the sport for a decade in order to serve his country as a combat engineer in the United States Army. He returned to the MMA cage in 2015 as a member of the NEF roster. Hansen has become known for taking tough fights against opponents that he is generally undersized next to. Less than two weeks ago, he defeated former top-tanked amateur light heavyweight Jesse “The Barbarian” Baughman (0-2) via first round submission at “NEF 22: ALL ROADS LEAD HERE.” Always up for a challenge, Hansen requested the opportunity to face Battles in his highly anticipated professional debut.

 

“I like this fight because I get to fight in Massachusetts again,” stated Hansen. “I made my pro debut at Club Lido at the ‘Wonderland’ Blue Line stop just over a decade ago. I rode the ‘T’ from Fenway to Wonderland on August 6th, 2005 to make my debut against Eric Brown who I beat by rear naked choke at 1:27 nan premye tou an. Jumping up two weight classes sucks, but I’ve competed at this weight many times. Battles is a very accomplished athlete with a stacked resume. With only three minutes of cage time, I think it’s time Battles was in the cage with someone ready to fight. I will gladly welcome Battles to the professional ranks and see how he stacks up. I’m going to stand right in front of him and make him beat me up and, if he can, li se yon avyon de gè bon. If he can’t, it is because I didn’t want him to. Sou Me 14th, we will have a fight my friend!"

CROWSNECK Boutin: “Li toujou plezi frape moun soti”

Kite yon kòmantè

Lewiston, Maine (Out 17, 2015) - New England Goumen (Nef), Nimewo-yon sèl batay pwomosyon rejyonal Amerik la, pral kenbe diznevyèm melanje-masyal-boza li yo (Mma) evènman, “Nef XIX: REZIDAN,” nan Samdi, Septanm 12, 2015 nan Androscoggin Bank Colisée nan nan Lewiston, Maine. Featured on the professional portion of the card will be a light-heavyweight matchup between Crowsneck Boutin (1-0) ak Mike “Moustach nan” Hansen (2-2). Both men are competing under NEF developmental deals.

 

Dènyèman, Boutin was NEF co-owner and matchmaker Matt Peterson’s guest on the NEF Podcast. Boutin discussed, nan mitan lòt sijè, ap grandi nan LUBEC, Maine, bout la k ap vini ak Hansen, and his recent signing to a multi-fight NEF development deal. Boutin and Peterson touched on their first meeting some three-and-a-half years ago, yon ti tan anvan Boutin te fè premye li nan amatè “Nef III.”

 

“Mwen te pandye soti ak yon kopen kèk moun ki te resevwa tikè a ou (Nef) premye evènman, Se konsa, mwen te ale nan sa ki epi li te bagay la pi gran,” recalled Boutin. “I remember talking with people and then contacting you. I really wasn’t doing anything at that time. I was feeling kind of lost. I was kind of clinging to the feeling of want. I just wanted to do something. Plis, I liked to fight and scrap. I always watched the sport. I guess it just all came together at that time.”

 

Ki pa gen okenn fòmasyon fòmèl, Boutin would lose his first bout. Yon ti tan apre, Peterson mete Boutin an kontak ak antrenè Jon Pinette nan Enstiti a Choi nan Portland, Maine. It is there that Boutin found his footing in the martial arts while, an menm tan an, tou, tankou zanmi fò ak relasyon ak koekipye.

 

“Li se yon atmosfè trè pè,” said Boutin of the Choi Institute. “Mwen pa janm te te rete nan yon sèl kote trè long tout lavi m ', except for this place. I don’t see myself leaving. It’s a great atmosphere over here. I called Jon. I remember being really nervous to call Jon, Mwen te panse sou sa a pi bonè, men li te vrèman envite… Tout moun isit la ki te reyèlman envite, really supporting. There’s a really good mix of people here. We have young to old. We have everything in between. It’s a very accepting place to be. It’s a great place to train. Everyone gets along inside and outside the gym.”

 

Boutin te pran desizyon an yo vire pwofesyonèl pi bonè ane sa apre li fin konpetisyon nan yon total de 13 batay amatè. He would defeat MMA Athletix head coach Ryan Cowette (2-3) in his debut. In doing so, Boutin te vin jwenn yon mezi nan tire revanj kòm li te protégé Cowette nan Brent Dillingham (1-1) ki moun ki te lage Boutin premye pèt li nan amatè premye Boutin a nan “Nef III.” Boutin says that there really was no animosity between himself and Cowette, men echanj la pòs-batay ant Boutin ak Dillingham nan “Nef III” nan 2012 is still in the back of his mind. He admits that he would love a rematch with Dillingham in the near future.

 

“Osi lwen ke Brent Dillingham ale, li se yon moun mwen ta vrèman renmen al goumen byento nan 205 si li ka jwenn nan fòm yo ak kontre avè m 'gen,” Boutin declared. “Mwen ta renmen genyen ki nenpòt moman batay byento.”

 

Boutin pral gen travay li koupe soti pou l 'ak Hansen sou Septanm 12 nan Lewiston. Hansen is an accomplished wrestler, li te gen te genyen yon chanpyona eta a pou Lekòl Segondè Mountain Valley nan RUMFORD, Maine in 2004. Boutin, sepandan, se konfyans nan kapasite pwòp tèt li tou de kanpe ak sou kabann lan.

 

“Mwen santi mwen pare pou tout kote batay la ale,” di Boutin. “Si li rete sou de pye yo, evantyèlman plis pase twa jij, I’m gonna try to knock him out. It’s always fun to knock people out. If it goes to the ground, Mwen pral met la.”
