It was his first fight back with the promotion since losing his pro debut in April 2018. Langston, a lifelong practitioner of Taekwondo, currently represents Young’s MMA based in nearby Bangor, Maine.

“It’s been hard getting fights altogether, but even more so in my home state,” noted Langston.  “So, with this last lost I didn’t think I was going to get another fight for a bit. I got in my own head and said I wanted to stop fighting for a bit, but when I got the call three weeks after the loss, I couldn’t say no. This is something I need, back-to-back fights. I just have to show up like I show up in the gym and I’ll get my hand raised without a doubt.”

Aaron Hughes will make both his professional and promotional debuts with NEF. He has had a very active amateur career since his debut in 2015, opstel van 'n rekord van 4-6 while competing on fight cards in his home state of Massachusetts. Hughes represents Regiment Training Center of Fall River, Massachusetts where he trains alongside the likes of current UFC star and former NEF Professional Cruiserweight Champion Yorgan De Castro (6-0).

“I’m really excited to take the trip to Maine to make my professional debut,” said Hughes when reached for comment.  “My opponent is skilled, but I’m coming to put on a show, and he’s just a man in the way of my dreams to the UFC. Thank you to NEF for having me out.”

559 Fights returns to Visalia

SELMA, Kalifornië. – Larry Gonzales hasn’t had the best of luck in his young mixed martial arts career. The Fresno heavyweight had three fights fall apart before he even had a chance to compete.

But once Gonzales stepped foot in the cage, he hasn’t looked back amassing a 4-0 rekord, capturing a 559 Fights Heavyweight Championship and climbing to a No. 3 ranking in the state.

Gonzales hopes to keep the good fortune going on March 13 – Friday the 13th – in a heavyweight title showdown with Fresno’s Kail Melton (1-2) at the Visalia Convention Center. Doors open at 6pm and first fight is at 7.

“Looking at things now this might be one of the largest fight cards we’ve ever put together," 559 Fights owner Jeremy Luchau said. “15 mma bouts in all, with three of them being title fights and a grappling tournament. I don’t know what more fight fans could possibly want.”

The co-main event features a California Amateur Mixed Martial Arts Organization Middleweight State title fight, pitting two of the Valley’s best 185-pound prospects against one another – Hanford’s Marqus Blevins (3-0) and Orange Cove’s Jared Velasquez (4-3).

“It’s been a long time coming to get Blevins into the 559 Fights cage,"Luchau gesê. “Blevins trains out of Valley Fight Club and that’s where I had my start in mixed martial arts training. It’s an honor and a pleasure to be able to have them represented in our promotion. And I’m also excited to have Velasquez back in action. He’s as tough as they come and represents a great city in Orange Cove where we just had an extremely successful event.”

Flyweights will also take center stage, as 125-pound 559 Fights kingpin Johnny Maldonado of Bakersfield defends his perfect 4-0 record in a rematch with former champion Josue Gonzales (3-2) of San Luis Obispo.

559 Fights will also be hosting its first grappling tournament, which will take place in the 155-185 weight classes and feature competitors from all over the Central Valley.

“The fight card is pretty stacked, but I’m probably most excited about this grappling tournament that we are doing,” Luchau added. “There’s going to be a lot of notable names from the Valley competing. It’s a great start for us on where we see the future of both grappling and 559 Fights heading in the future.”

In other main card bouts; Irvine flyweight Meggan Tamondong (2-1) takes on Rocklin’s Valerie Thurs (3-4), Lindsay lightweight Mark Felix (4-3) battles Sacramento’s Julius Wright (5-4), Hanford featherweight Denzel Rosaroso (3-0) fights Bakersfield’s Sal Bruno (2-2-2), Sanger welterweight Anthony Mata (1-1) tangles with Bakersfield’s Jeramy Titsworth (1-1) and Porterville light heavyweight Omar Reneau (2-3) fights Lathrop’s Danny Moreno (2-2).

Grappling competitors include; Porterville’s Brandon Cohea, Fresno’s Nick Bustamante, Selma’s Julian Tovar, Parlier’s Christian Avalos, Fresno’s Art Hernandez, Visalia’s Marc DeLaCruz, Fresno’s Alex Rojas and Bakersfield’s Matt Reed.

OMGEWINGSGEveg SAL 'N REMATCH BY NEF KRY 43 IN ORONO

VIR ONMIDDELLIKE VRYSTELLING: Orono, Maine (Februarie 28, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) bied die volgende gemengde-vechtkunsten aan (Plaasmoorde) byeenkoms in die Collins Centre for the Arts op die Universiteit van Maine se vlagskip Orono-kampus. Die geleentheid, getiteld “NEF 43: Rampage,”Vind Saterdag plaas, April 18, 2020, met 'n kloktyd van 7 pm EDT. Vroeër vandag, die strydpromosie het die toevoeging van 'n amateurvlieggewigstryd op die kaart aangekondig. Caleb “Dr.. Feelgood ”Austin (4-0) sal in die gesig staar James Ploss (1-2) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 125 pond.

Die stryd is 'n herkansing van die eerste stryd tussen Austin en Ploss wat drie jaar tevore in April plaasgevind het 2017 by “NEF 28.” Austin is as die wenner van die eerste wedstryd aangewys, maar nie sonder omstredenheid nie. Sekondes in die eerste ronde, Ploss het 'n stywe guillotine-verstikking op Austin aangebring. Austin tik uit, maar die skeidsregter was buite posisie om die kraan te sien. Ploss het Austin uit die ruim vrygelaat, dink hy het die stryd gewen. Die skeidsregter, tot Ploss se verbystering, het die geveg beveel om voort te gaan. Terwyl Ploss probeer het om die situasie te verstaan, Austin het hom van stryk gebring en die stryd oomblikke later met tegniese uitklophou afgesluit.

In die dae daarna, baie was kritiek op Austin op sosiale media. Dit lyk asof die saak na 'n paar dae dood is, net om einde verlede jaar weer op die voorgrond te bring toe die voormalige UFC- en WEC-ster Mike Brown (26-9) het die clip op Twitter gedeel as 'n voorbeeld van 'baklei totdat die skeidsregter vir jou sê om op te hou.' Skielik, die geveg het wêreldwyd aandag gekry van groot aanlyn nuusbronne soosBloedige elmboogMMA JunkieDie Atletiek, enDie Underground.

Die eerste geveg met Ploss was Caleb Austin se amateur-MMA-debuut. Hy was toe 18 jaar oud en nog steeds senior aan die Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Austin was 'n opvallende stoeier op hoërskool, opstel van 'n rekord van 208-11 meer as vier jaar en die verowering van staatstitels op 126 pond sy junior en senior jaar. Hy is aangewys as die 2017 “Stoeier van die Jaar” deur die Lewiston Sun Journal. Na die gradeplegtigheid, Austin sit sy stoeiloopbaan voort aan die Universiteit van Suid-Maine, maar hy neem die volgende twee jaar af van die MMA-kompetisie. Hy het verlede somer teruggekeer en het drie gevegte agtereenvolgens gewen sedert hy sy terugkeer gemaak het. Austin verteenwoordig tans die Brasiliaanse Jiu-Jitsu in Sentraal-Maine (CMBJJ) in Lewiston, Maine.

'Ek is opgewonde om uiteindelik weer met James te kan veg om 'n mate van sluiting te kry,”Het Austin van die herkansing met Ploss gesê. 'My MMA-debuut spook by my sedert dit amper drie jaar gelede gebeur het. Ek is James en sy span dankbaar dat hulle my die geleentheid gegee het om weer saam met hom daar in te kom. Ek wou dit al lank hê en ek belowe om die oomblik optimaal te benut. As ek hierdie keer die hok verlaat, dit sal sonder twyfel of kontroversie wees — dit sal definitief eindig. ”

James Ploss het nog twee keer in die stryd getree 2017 en het sedertdien nog nie deelgeneem nie. Hy is 'n lid van Greg Williams se Team Kaze in Lancaster, New Hampshire. Soos Austin, Ploss sal op soek wees na afsluiting van die uitslag van hul eerste ontmoeting.

'Ek is dankbaar vir 'n herkansing met Caleb,”Het Ploss gesê. 'Nadenke, Ek het die vraag nagedink, ‘Is ek beter as Kaleb, of is hy beter as ek?'Dit is die perfekte kans om uit te vind - 'n tweede kans vir ons albei om alles te gee en te sien wie bo uitkom en die ondersteuners gee, MMA-gemeenskap, en albei van ons die rematch wat ons almal wil hê! 18 April, ons toets albei onsself. ”

“I really look forward to fighting Caree,” said Tucker.  “This is a very good matchup. She’s a tough girl and so am I. I’m looking forward to putting on my best performance and having that belt around my waist.”

This will be the second time in less than a year that Caree Hill has ventured cross-country from her home in Oregon to challenge for NEF’s 125-pound amateur women’s strap. She took on Glory Watson for the belt at “NEF 39” last June and lost an extremely close split decision. Hill has gone on to win her next two fights, including capturing a regional title in Oregon. She represents Team Quest based in Gresham, Oregon and founded by UFC legends Randy Couture (19-11) and Dan Henderson (32-15).  The gym has produced top names like Chael Sonnen (31-17), Nate Quarry (12-4), and the late Evan Tanner (32-8) just to name a few.

The event, getiteld “NEF 43: Rampage,”Vind Saterdag plaas, April 18, 2020, met 'n kloktyd van 7 pm EDT. Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the card.Brandon “BAMF” Maillet-Fevens(3-1) sal in die gesig staarNathaniel Grimard(1-0) teen 'n gevegsgewig van 145 pond.

Brandon Maillet-Fevens made his amateur debut at “NEF 36” in November 2018, losing via submission in the first round. Since that time, Maillet-Fevens has not looked back. He went on a three-fight win-streak in 2019, finishing all three of his opponents in the process. Most recently, Maillet-Fevens was successful over Tyler Knights (0-1) with a second-round submission at “NEF 41” last November. He currently represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) based in Lewiston, ME.

“I’m excited and grateful for the opportunity to once again get back in the NEF cage,” said Maillet-Fevens. “I think Nathaniel presents some challenges I haven’t had to deal with yet, but we’ve been hard at work improving every aspect of my game and I’m going to be comfortable wherever the fight goes. I’m looking forward to putting on a good fight for the fans and showcasing what CMBJJ is all about!"

Nathaniel Grimard impressed many with his first-round armbar submission of Justin Kangas (0-3) last September at “NEF 40” in what was Grimard’s cage debut. That fight took place within the 155-pound lightweight division. Grimard feels the ten-pound drop to featherweight will further benefit his comfort level in the cage. He represents Nostos MMA of Somersworth, New Hampshire, waar hy onder die UFC-veteraan en die voormalige NEF Professionele liggewigkampioen Devin Powell oefen (10-4).

“I’m excited for this opportunity NEF has given me to fight a very game opponent in April,” said Grimard.  “I am stepping in the cage more comfortable and prepared this time at a weight class I belong. With both of us having finished our past opponents, I expect Brandon to bring it in April, and I think it’s going to be a great and exciting fight.”

Fred Lear, who wrestled and played football for John Bapst Memorial High School in nearby Bangor, Maine, had one of the most successful amateur careers in NEF history. Lear finished his amateur career in 2019 met 'n rekord van 6-2-1 and an NEF Amateur Bantamweight Title to his credit. He entered the professional ranks last April in Portland, Maine, losing his debut to Bryant Bullock (2-1) via second-round submission. Lear experienced a disappointing setback when an opponent pulled out on him the night before weigh-ins at “NEF 40” last September. The Young’s MMA product will now look for the first win of his professional career on April 18 against Rine.

“2019 and the September fight card were difficult for me, but I wasn’t going to let it get in the way of supporting my team,” said Lear. “I feel as though people have forgotten who I am and what I’m here to do. Jason Rine is a Bellator vet and a consummate professional. I’m here, Ek is honger, and April 18th I’m making the walk and leaving my mark.”

Jason Rine is indeed a Bellator veteran, having competed on the Bellator 215 card last year. Based out of Fredericktown, Ohio, Rine has become well-known throughout the New England region in recent years, traveling in to fight on many area events. While his record may appear on the surface to be that of a journeyman, Rine has taken nothing but tough bouts throughout his professional career, always showing up to fight. April 18 will see him make his debut with NEF.

“I’m very excited to come to Maine and fight for NEF against a game opponent in Fred Lear,” stated Rine when reached for comment.  “I’m ready to test myself in a new promotion in a new state. Time for a fresh start and a new beginning.”
