PRESSEMEDDELELSE: Orono, Maine (Marts 10, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) vil præsentere sin næste blandede kampsport (MMA) begivenhed på Collins Center for the Arts på University of Maine's flagskib Orono campus. Begivenheden, med titlen “NEF 43: Rampage,”Finder sted lørdag, April 18, 2020, med en klokkeslæt af 7 pm EDT. Tidligere i dag, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the card.Carl Langston (0-5) er planlagt til at mødesAaron “Short Fuse” Hughes(0-0) ved en kampvægt på 145 pounds.

Carl Langston comes into the fight looking for the first win that has eluded him thus far in his professional career. Last month, Langston took on Jacob Deppmeyer (1-0) in Portland, Maine at “NEF 42,” losing via first-round technical knockout. 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,” bemærkede 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, putting together a record of 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.”

LIZ CARMOUCHE TO MAKE BELLATOR MMA DEBUT AGAINST UNDEFEATED MANDY BÖHM IN MAIN EVEN EVENT OF PROMOTION’S RETURN TO PECHANGA RESORT CASINO

Efterlad en kommentar
EVENT SET FOR FRIDAY, MAJ 29 AT 10 P.M. ET/9 P.M. CT ON PARAMOUNT NETWORK & DAZN

TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY, MARTS 13!



LOS ANGELES – Bellator officials today announced that the eagerly anticipated promotional debut of Liz Carmouche (13-7) will take place on Friday, Maj 29 at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, Calif. against undefeated SBG Ireland’s flyweight prospect Mandy Böhm (6-0, 1 NC).



Billetter til Bellator 243: Carmouche vs. Böhm go on sale March 13 på 3 p.m. PT and are available at the Pechanga box office, samtBellator.com, Ticketmaster.com og Pechanga.com.



The event will be broadcast live Friday, Maj 29 på Paramount Network og DAZN på 10 p.m. ET/9 p.m. CT, while preliminary action will stream on Bellator’s MMA YouTube channel. Yderligere anfald vil blive annonceret i de kommende uger.



A United States Marine Corps veteran and established flyweight competitor, Carmouche joined Bellator’s women’s flyweight division this past December following a six-year run in UFC – a tenure that includes world title bouts in both the bantamweight and flyweight divisions, as well as notable wins over Katlyn Chookagian and Jessica Andrade.



Fighting out of San Diego, the 36-year-old Team Hurricane Awesome-product also formerly competed for Strikeforce, notching a pair of victories with the promotion. She also earned a win over Valentina Shevchenko earlier in her career. Prior to “Girl-Rilla’s” days as a professional athlete, the Lafayette, Louisiana-native spent five years serving as an aviation electrician in the United Stated Marine Corps, where she completed three tours of duty in the Middle East.



Fresh off a flyweight title victory on the regional MMA scene last May, Mandy Böhm is ready to bring her undefeated mark as a professional to the highest levels of the sport when she meets former two-division title challenger Liz Carmouche on May 29. Hailing from Germany, but training under the tutelage of John Kavanagh at SBG Ireland in Dublin, “Monster” is a force to be reckoned with on the feet, but showcased her strong submission skills when she handed top Canadian prospect Jade Masson-Wong the first loss of her career in 2019.

559 Fights returns to Visalia

Efterlad en kommentar

SELMA, Calif. – 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,”Sagde Luchau. “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.

CONTROVERSIAL FIGHT WILL GET A REMATCH AT NEF 43 I ORONO

Efterlad en kommentar

PRESSEMEDDELELSE: Orono, Maine (Februar 28, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) vil præsentere sin næste blandede kampsport (MMA) event at the Collins Center for the Arts on the University of Maine’s flagship Orono campus. Arrangementet, med titlen “NEF 43: Rampage,”Finder sted lørdag, April 18, 2020, med en klokkeslæt af 7 pm EDT. Tidligere i dag, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur flyweight bout to the card. Caleb “Dr. Feelgood” Austin (4-0) vil stå over for James Ploss (1-2) ved en kampvægt på 125 pounds.

The bout will be a rematch of the first fight between Austin and Ploss that took place three years prior in April 2017 at “NEF 28.” Austin was declared the winner of that first contest, but not without controversy. Seconds into the first round, Ploss had a tight guillotine choke applied to Austin. Austin tapped out, but the referee was out of position to see the tap. Ploss released Austin from the hold, thinking he had won the fight. The referee, to Ploss’ bewilderment, ordered the fight to continue. As Ploss tried to make sense of the situation, Austin took him down and finished the fight moments later by technical knockout.

In the days that followed, many were critical of Austin on social media. The matter seemed to die down after a few days, only to be brought back to the forefront with a vengeance late last year when former UFC and WEC star Mike Brown (26-9) shared the clip on Twitter as an example of “fighting until the referee tells you to stop.” Suddenly, the fight received global attention from major online news sources likeBloody Elbow, MMA Junkie, The Athletic, ogThe Underground.

The first fight with Ploss was Caleb Austin’s amateur MMA debut. He was 18-years-old at the time and still a senior at Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Austin was a standout wrestler in high school, putting together a record of 208-11 over four years and winning state titles at 126 pounds his junior and senior years. He was named the 2017 “Wrestler of the Year” by the Lewiston Sun Journal. After graduation, Austin continued his wrestling career at the University of Southern Maine, but he took the next two years off from MMA competition. He returned last summer and has won three fights in a row since he made his comeback. Austin currently represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) i Lewiston, Maine.

“I’m excited to finally be able to fight James again to gain some closure,” said Austin of the rematch with Ploss. “My MMA debut has haunted me since it happened almost three years ago. I’m thankful to James and his team for giving me this opportunity to get back in there with him. I’ve wanted this for a long time and I promise to make the most of the moment. When I exit the cage this time, it will be without question or controversy—it will end definitively.”

James Ploss went on to fight two more times in 2017 and has not competed since. He is a member of Greg Williams’ Team Kaze based in Lancaster, New Hampshire. Like Austin, Ploss will be looking for closure to the outcome of their first encounter.

“I’m grateful for a rematch with Caleb,” said Ploss. “Reflecting, I have pondered the question, ‘Am I better than Caleb or is he better than me?’ This is the perfect chance to find out—a second chance for us both to give it our all and see who comes out on top giving the fans, MMA community, and both of us the rematch we all want! April 18, we both test ourselves.”

KVINDERENS FLYVÆGTTITEL VÆRER OP FOR GRABS PÅ NEF 43 I ORONO

PRESSEMEDDELELSE: Orono, Maine (Februar 26, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) vil præsentere sin næste blandede kampsport (MMA) begivenhed på Collins Center for the Arts på University of Maine's flagskib Orono campus. Begivenheden, med titlen “NEF 43: Rampage,”Finder sted lørdag, April 18, 2020, med en klokkeslæt af 7 pm EDT. Tidligere i dag, kampforfremmelsen annoncerede tilføjelsen af ​​en amatørkvindes flyvægtstitel til kortet."Charmerende" Chelsea Tucker(3-3) vil tage påCaree Hill(6-2) til det ledige NEF amatør kvindes flyvemesterskab. Titlen blev fraflyttet af den regerende mester Glory Watson (6-1) efter at hendes beslutning om at tænde for ”NEF 43” kampkort blev annonceret.

Chelsea Tucker er på en win-streak med tre kampe, siden hun startede sin amatør-MMA-karriere med tre lige tab. Det er en stribe, der begyndte med hendes sidste NEF-optræden i november 2018 der så Tucker besejre BJ Garceau (1-1) via teknisk knockout i tredje runde. Hun har fortsat med at vinde kampe i New Hampshire og Vermont siden den tid. Tucker tjener stolt i den amerikanske kystvagt, stationeret i Boothbay, Maine. Hun repræsenterer i øjeblikket First Class MMA med base i Brunswick, Maine.

”Jeg ser virkelig frem til at bekæmpe Caree,”Sagde Tucker.  ”Dette er en meget god matchup. Hun er en hård pige, og det gør jeg også. Jeg ser frem til at tage min bedste præstation og have det bælte rundt om livet. ”

Dette vil være anden gang på mindre end et år, at Caree Hill vover langrend fra sit hjem i Oregon for at udfordre NEFs 125 pund amatørkvindestrop. Hun påtog sig Glory Watson for bæltet ved ”NEF 39” i juni sidste år og mistede en ekstremt tæt splittet beslutning. Hill har fortsat med at vinde sine næste to kampe, herunder erobring af en regional titel i Oregon. Hun repræsenterer Team Quest med base i Gresham, Oregon og grundlagt af UFC-legenderne Randy Couture (19-11) og Dan Henderson (32-15).  Gymnastiksalen har produceret topnavne som Chael Sonnen (31-17), Nate stenbrud (12-4), og den afdøde Evan Tanner (32-8) bare for at nævne nogle få.

”Jeg er begejstret for muligheden for at komme tilbage og kæmpe for New England Fights igen,”Sagde Hill, da han blev nået til kommentar.  ”Jeg har trænet hårdt og er klar til overalt, hvor kampen går. Jeg ser frem til at kæmpe for en spændende kamp for kampfans i Maine. ”

New England Fights’ næste blandede kampsportbegivenhed, “NEF 43: Rampage,” finder sted lørdag, April 18, 2020, på Collins Center for the Arts på UMaine Orono. Billetter er til salg nu påwww.CollinsCenterfortheArts.com.

PRESSEMEDDELELSE: Orono, Maine (Februar 25, 2020) - New England Fights (NEF) vil præsentere sin næste blandede kampsport (MMA) begivenhed på Collins Center for the Arts på University of Maine's flagskib Orono campus. Begivenheden, med titlen “NEF 43: Rampage,”Finder sted lørdag, April 18, 2020, med en klokkeslæt af 7 pm EDT. Tidligere i dag, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the card.Brandon “BAMF” Maillet-Fevens(3-1) vil stå over forNathaniel Grimard(1-0) ved en kampvægt på 145 pounds.

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, hvor han træner under UFC-veteran og tidligere NEF Professional Lightweight Champion Devin Powell (10-4).

“I’m excited for this opportunity NEF has given me to fight a very game opponent in April,Sagde 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.”

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, Jeg er sulten, 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.”
