Lewiston, Maine (August 31, 2015) - New England Kumenyana (NEF), America wa nambala wani dera nkhondo Kukwezeleza, adzakangamira ake khumi ndi chisanu losakanizika karate-zaluso (MMA) chochitika, “NEF XIX,” lachiwelu, September 12, 2015 pa Androscoggin Bank Colisée mu Lewiston, Maine. The fight card will feature two amateur women’s bouts. Angela Young (0-0) wa Young a MMA ku Bangor ndi ndandanda kuti iye kuwonekera koyamba kugulu motsutsana Rachel Reinheimer (1-0) from team Sityodtong. Young’s teammate Kira Innocenti (0-0) amadziwikanso inakonzedwa kuti iye kuwonekera koyamba kugulu motsutsana Hannah Sparrell (0-0) ku First Maphunziro MMA mu Brunswick.

Angela Young ndi mkazi wa Chris Young – owner and founder of Young’s MMA. She views her debut fight as a way of testing herself.

“It’s important for me to test myself,” anati Young, “osati mu khola anabweraSeptember 12, but also through the fight that’s happened the last eight weeks leading up to the NEF event. I feel the fight is essentially a showcase and representation of the grueling training sessions and endless hours in the gym that took place prior to fight night. Living the MMA lifestyle to me meant more than diet modifications and strict training schedules. Athletically, izo zinali zambiri za kupirira mwa zopinga ndi kukankha wanga malire monga mpikisano m'njira anali kuyesedwa. Inali kutsimikizira kuti ndekha, wanga mabogi wanga ankaseŵera nawo mpira kuti ndazipeza langa lamanja mwatsatane mu khola.”

Kodi m'mbuyomu akazi akhala anangolemba sideshow ndi zachilendo zigawo za nkhondo zamasewera, ngati nkhonya, amai MMA wakhala osati atauka kuti ofanana HIV ndi anthu a MMA, izo ziyenera, m'njira zina, surpassed it. One has to look only to the highest level of the sport to see this trend. Women’s fights are now routinely present on the main cards of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The promotion’s top star, ndi apamwamba analipira wothamanga, chake akazi a bantamweight ngwazi Ronda Rousey (12-0). The women competing on the September 12 khadi adzakhala apita patsogolo ndi kayendedwe kuwonjezera mwayi akazi pa maiko oyandikana.

“MMA akazi si ndizofunikira osiyana kusiyana ndi amuna,” ananena Young. “N'zodziwikiratu, MMA ndi ambiri mwamuna masewera, but successful women in the MMA world are on the rise. Kudzera nkhondo msasa ine analimbana, sparred ndi analimbana ndi Young a MMA nkhondo gulu ndipo akhala unrelentingly wothandiza. Kukhala mmodzi wa mkazi woyamba omenyana kuchokera Young a ndithu uli ndi mavuto (komanso kukwatiwa ndi Mr. Young) but it’s also a spotlight I’m hoping will inspire other women who otherwise wouldn’t have pursued MMA. I would bet the women’s fights on September 12th won’t be unlike the others we’ve seen at prior NEF events. Ndimafuna kuti akazi kuvala lalikulu bwanji chifukwa ife ndi chinachake kutsimikizira. Ndaika magazi, thukuta ndi misozi ku maphunziro ndi inu bwino ndikhulupirira poganiza akutsutsana nane anachita chimodzimodzi. Ndiye anati, akazi ati abwere pambuyo kudzala awo pamtengo mu NEF khola.”

Ana a mnzanu, Kira Innocenti, komanso ali ndi mdani pa “NEF XIX,” Rachel Reinheimer, amaoneka amati ndi Young maganizo a pa kuwonjezereka wa amayi MMA.

“Akazi a MMA ndi pa kuwuka,” Anati Innocenti. “Aliyense chilango limaphunzitsa mkazi chinachake sakudziwa za yekha. Ndaona ine chidaliro mu ndekha ndi ena ambiri. The akazi ena pa mphasa, the better. Fans can expect my teammate, Angie, ndipo ndekha kupereka izo athu onse ndi kupita kunkhondo ngati mwamuna Ankhondo Young a MMA kuchita. Ife anayesetsa kuti tizikhala masewero olimbitsa. Ife asamenyana kunyada, chilakolako, ndi wamphamvu ngodya kuyang'ana kunja kwa ife. Nukuuzyani vyendi kuti akazi ayi adzakhala wosaiwalika.”

“Akazi a MMA ndi masewera basi,” ananena Reinheimer wa Everett, Massachusetts. “Si chinthu filimu kumene ngwazi nkutha ku nkhalango masiku atatu kuphunzitsa ndi asilikali luso mbuye ndiyeno anagonjetsa lonse lankhondo. Si bala chipolowe polimbana. Si mmbuyo Alley abisalire. Akazi awa ali aakulu othamanga amene aziphuzitsa mwakhama kwa zaka ntchito yabwino maphunziro, zida ndi zipangizo zimene zilipo. Women amene kupikisana nawo nkhondo masewera amathera maola ambiri magazi, thukuta ndi misozi kutsiriza awo masewera. Iwo kudzimana. Komanso, pali malamulo ndi nthawi malire ndi ngozi. Pamene munthu sadziwa lingaliro la amai MMA, Ndiuyerekeze ndi nkhonya kapena kuchinga, something else that people are more familiar with. The pool of women fighters in New England is deepening fast and the fact that there are more women’s bouts on fight cards reflects that. Wanga mdani Ine ndi onse aakulu, olimbikira m'misasa. Tonse amayi ndipo kumafunika khama ndi galimoto kuchita mpira pamene juggling ntchito ndi ana. Ndakhala ntchito mwakhama wanga gulu kuyambira wanga wotsiriza nkhondo kuti ndizolowere masewera m'mbali zonse. Ndikuthokoza kwambiri chifukwa cha chidwi maphunziro ndi ankaseŵera nawo mpira pa Sityodtong kuti kukankhira nane molimba. Pa September 12, mungayembekezere nkhondo.”

Anthu ambiri, amuna ndi akazi, who join MMA gyms do not do so initially intending to become an active cage fighter. On any given day, one can walk into any MMA gym and find a diverse population of trainees. Men and women, achikulire ndi ana, buluu kolala ndi makolala oyera, all train side by side. Most will never step foot in a cage in front of thousands of screaming fans. Most are there to get in shape or learn self-defense. Some, Komabe, amene adalumidwa ndi mpikisano cholakwika.

“I kwa anthu MMA dziko pambuyo kusainira mwana wanga kwa Jiu Jitsu makalasi kuganiza zingakhale zothandiza kwa iye yekha chitetezo mbali nawo masewera,” anakumbukira Hanna Sparrell. “Ndinangoyang'ana pamene iye anagwa mchikondi ndi masewera, kupeza mphamvu ndi chidaliro, and was quick to decide that it was something I needed to be doing too. It didn’t take long before I fell in love with Jiu Jitsu myself, ndiyeno kwenikweni ankafuna kufufuza zina za dziko MMA. Kukhala mu masewero olimbitsa wakhala yachiwiri kunyumba kwa ine ndi mwana wanga, maphunziro anga okondedwa, a second family. Every day I walk through the doors of the gym is a test, ndi mayeso a athleticism, komanso mayesero a maganizo ndi malingaliro pagalimoto. Popeza kuwonetsedwa ku wosakaniza asilikali luso dziko Ndaika thupi langa, mtima, ndi miyoyo maphunziro, ndi kupikisana mu podwala n'kofunika ine zifukwa zambiri, osati kuimira ndekha ndi ntchito zanga, komanso kuimira khama, kudzipereka, ndi chilimbikitso ndalandira kwa anzanga, alangizi, maphunziro abwenzi, and fellow fighters along the way. I think MMA training for woman is a great outlet for many reasons, mwathupi kwambiri kulimbitsa thupi, ndipo ndi wabwino mwa "mankhwala" pamapeto a mwina nkhawa tsiku. Ndili ndi zambiri akazi ine kuphunzitsa ndi, sionse amene akukonza pa nkhondo, koma phindu la masewera zilipobe, ndipo amakonda izo chimodzimodzi basi.”

Innocenti, monga ambiri, anachita nkhondo masewera monga njira mu, ndi kukhala mu, shape. Little did she know when her journey started some two years ago that it would take her into an MMA cage with thousands watching her compete.

“Kumuyesa ndekha mu wosakaniza asilikali luso podwala n'kofunika ine ambiri zonse. Zaka ziwiri zapitazo, Ndinali wonenepa ndi ankavutika kupeza wathanzi, wosangalatsa njira. Tsiku lina, Ndinadzuka ndipo anatenga moyo ndi ulamuliro ndi theka pachaka, anataya mapaundi sikisite pandekha. Ine akalandire kuti vuto, m'malo, ndipo anafuna wina. Aaron “Osatekeseka” Lacey anandiuza za Young a MMA ndi ine anakakamizika fufuzani. Atalowa mwa zitseko, kuyesera onse a makalasi, ndi misonkhano banja amene anapanga kwapadera, Ine anazolowera. Ndinapemphera cholinga kukhala wa mkazi woyamba omenyana pa arguably lalikulu kwambiri nkhondo timu ku New England. Ine nthawizonse zakhala mpikisano. Ndimasangalala otsutsana ndekha ndi kukankha malire kuti amaganiziridwa kuti n'zosatheka tikwaniritse. Kukhala mitundu yosiyanasiyana asilikali luso moyo ndi lolimba. Pamafunika kudzipereka kuposa ine ndinayamba amaganizira. Iwo akuswa inu ndi kumanga inu kubwerera ku munthu ndinu. Nkhondoyi n'kofunika kwambiri chifukwa ndakhala asokoneza ndi zodabwitsa gulu nane kuti amaphunzitsidwa ndi ambiri zolimbikitsa ndi zolimbikitsa mabogi. Ndine wotsimikiza kuti iwo wonyada ndi kuthokoza iwo ndi dzanja langa waukitsidwa.”

“Wosakaniza masewera a karati ndi akamuphe ya mzimu wa munthu pa nkhani iliyonse: mwathupi, mwamaganizo, ndi maganizo,” anati Reinheimer. “Ndili ndi kulakalaka kudziwa momwe ndingapite. I like exceeding expectations and pushing my limits and that’s MMA in a nutshell. Since I started training in martial arts, moyo wanga wakhala malire-zochepa. Moyo wanga pa mphasa bwino moyo wanga pa mphasa ndi mosemphanitsa. Iwo anavula zonse zosafunika zinthu zina asungunulidwa moyo wanga mpaka chofunika, mkati ndi kunja kwa mphete. Ine ndikumverera ngati izo anandithandiza kwambiri ndi wanga lodalirika kudzikonda. Ndi bwino wakale asilikali zaluso ndi moyo wamasiku ano.”

A akazi anayi kumenyana pa “NEF XIX” khadi, only Reinheimer has actively competed in the past. She dominated her opponent this past spring on her way to a unanimous decision victory in her debut. All of the women fighting on September 12 mu Lewiston ndi okondwa chifukwa cha mwayi.

“NEF ndi olimba Kukwezeleza ndi lalikulu mbiri,” anati Reinheimer. “I was a spectator at their very first fight card back in 2012. I love Maine and the crowd is awesome there. Ndikuyang'anira!”

“Ine ndikuganiza mafani angayembekezere lalikulu bwanji ndithu,” anafuula Sparrell. “Nthawi zambiri akazi a ndewu atsimikizira kuti kwambiri chotchedwa, ife ndithudi ndikufuna kuti ndife oyenera mu yaikulu mwamuna-chogwidwa masewera. Ichi ndi kuwonekera koyamba kugulu atatu kuchokera anayi akazi pa khadi, kotero ine ndikudziwa pali adzakhala zambiri mtima ndi mtima kuponyedwa awa ndewu. Ndikudziwa, panokha, Ndine okondwa kuimira! I couldn’t be more excited to be making my MMA debut in the NEF cage; Ine munaonapo ambiri a omenyana ine angalambire ndi kuyang'ana kwa mu mpira pa nthandala ya Androscoggin Bank Colisée, kukhala ndi mwayi tsopano kukhala kunja uko ndi kwenikweni amene ali woona ulemu.”

“Monga September 12 mofulumira wakudza, Ine n'kukhala anthu osangalala ndi okonzeka kulowa mu khola,” anati Young. “Zimenezi zakhala ulendo ndipo Ndikuona kuti mwayi yopanga wanga ankachita masewera MMA kuwonekera koyamba kugulu ndi NEF.”
