CORAPI OUT, ЛОКАРД ВО ПРОТИВ ЕРИКСОН; БОРЕТЕ СЕГА ЗА НАСЛОВ НА ЛЕТНИЧКИ ВО NEF 39

Јуни 7, 2019 FNU47 Остави коментар

ЗА ОБЈАВУВАЊЕ ВЕДНАШ: LEWISTON, Мејн (Јуни 4, 2019) - Нова Англија бори (NEF) се враќа во Колизејката банка Андроскоггин во саботата, Јуни 22 со својот следен настан во мешани боречки вештини, “NEF 39: СЕ-АМЕРИКАНСКИ.” Претходно денеска, промоцијата на борбата го објави тоа Џеси “Викинг” Ериксон (9-7) ќе се сретне Дилан Lockard (5-1) за слободното првенство во лесна категорија на НЕФ. Поранешниот шампион Рајан Сандерс (18-9) одлучи да ја ослободи титулата кон крајот на минатата година поради екстремните намалувања на тежината што мораше да ги претрпи за да ја ограничи границата во лесна категорија 155 фунти.

Рунда, првично беше закажана афера без титула помеѓу Ериксон и Луис Корапи (8-5), настана откако Корапи мораше да се повлече поради болест.

“Theеси Ериксон е повеќегодишен кандидат уште од основањето на титулата во лесна категорија НЕФ,” NEF изјави ко-сопственик и сватовник Мет Петерсон. “Во 22 борби помеѓу неговата аматерска и професионална кариера, мора да се вратиш до неговата прва борба во 2012 да се најде еднаш дека Ериксон некогаш се степал, одете на резултатите на судијата. Тој секогаш се натпреварува со жестокост што го води кон обезбедување на финишот, или се завршени. Тој е чист оган секогаш кога ќе се качи во кафезот. Дилан Lockard, по истиот знак, изгуби само еднаш меѓу неговите аматерски и професионални излети и е една од најжешките можности во Нова Англија во моментов. Како аматер, Локард ги победи и oshош Харви и Калеб Хол - два спојка од НЕФ кои немаат пораз и изгледаат незапирливо откако стана професионалец. Вие не би можеле да побарате посовршена борба помеѓу двајца искусни, гладни спортисти да ја пополнат многу посакуваната титула во лесна категорија.”

Ериксон се обиде да го фати лесниот ремен трипати претходно, двапати против Брус Боингтон (17-11) и еднаш против сегашниот натпреварувач на УФЦ Девин Пауел (9-4), само да излезе кратко во секоја борба. Ериксон вели дека ќе биде трпелив во овој натпревар во надеж дека ќе ја освои титулата што му избега до денес.

„Прво, Сакам да му се заблагодарам на Дилан што се засили за да се натпреварува,” - забележа Ериксон. “Се чини дека е добро заокружен и има победи над некои квалитетни противници. Работам напорно секој ден и ќе влезам во кафезот во најдобра форма во која некогаш сум бил. Нема да брзам во кафезот на 22 јуни. Имам пет круга да го тргнам и конечно да излезам со тој ремен. Победа или Валхала, четврти пат е шармот “.

Локард дефинитивно ќе влезе во непријателска територија со стотици пријатели од родниот град на Ериксон, семејството и навивачите во толпата. Борбата ќе се одржи за десет килограми потешка од ограничувањето во перолесна категорија во кое обично се натпреварува Локард.

Сè за позадината на Локард, Меѓутоа, укажува на тоа дека тој станува за да одговори на кој било предизвик. Во 2010 тој освои државно првенство на 152 борење фунти за регионалното средно училиште Тимберлејн во Плејстоу, Њу Хемпшир, завршувајќи ја својата сениорска сезона со импресивен 38-9 рекорд. Својата аматерска ММА кариера ја започна во 2014 и отиде совршен 4-0, победувајќи ги најдобрите што регионот може да ги понуди, вклучително и Харви и Хол. Локард се претвори во про летото 2016 година. Неговата единствена загуба досега беше против многу тешкиот Шејн Менли (5-5), кои долгогодишните навивачи на НЕФ ќе ги паметат како спортист кој им ги предаде и bothеси Ериксон и Реј Вуд (8-5) првите загуби на нивните соодветни ММА кариери. Локард во моментов е во серија на победи во две борби по поразот од Менли, неодамна неизбежниот претходно непоразен Ентони Рајт (4-1) на борбена карта во Род Ајленд минатата есен.

„Возбуден сум што дојдов до Мејн и ќе се борам за титулата во НЕФ,” - рече Локард кога стигна до коментар. “Essеси е навистина тежок противник, и мислам дека добро се совпаѓаме. Theе биде возбудлива борба за навивачите “.

“NEF 39: СЕ-АМЕРИКАНСКИ,” ќе се одржи во сабота, Јуни 22, 2019 на Colisee на Androscoggin банка во Lewiston, Мејн со bвонче време од 7 часот. Билетите се во продажба сега во www.TheColisee.com.

BOUCHER HOPES SECOND TIME WILL BE A CHARM FOR CAPTURING FLYWEIGHT TITLE

Мај 29, 2019 FNU47 Остави коментар

ЗА ОБЈАВУВАЊЕ ВЕДНАШ: LEWISTON, Мејн (Мај 25, 2019) - Нова Англија бори (NEF) се враќа во Колизејката банка Андроскоггин во саботата, Јуни 22 со својот следен настан во мешани боречки вештини, “NEF 39: СЕ-АМЕРИКАНСКИ.” One of the featured fights on the amateur portion of the pro/am card will see Nate Boucher (4-3) tangle with Robert Presley (5-4) for the vacant NEF Amateur Flyweight Title.

This will be Boucher’s second attempt at capturing the flyweight belt. Then-undefeated, Boucher met Justin Witham (4-4) во ноември 2017 for the championship in Portland, Мејн. Witham went on to win the bout, and the title, via split decision on the judges’ scorecards. Many in attendance, Меѓутоа, felt that Boucher had dominated the bout.

The loss to Witham was the start of a three-fight skid for the former wrestler from Mountain Valley High School in Rumford, Maine. Boucher has rebounded and put himself back in contention for the flyweight strap with back-to-back first-round submission victories at “NEF 36” и “NEF 37,” соодветно.

Boucher represents Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Lewiston, Мејн.

“Since coming up short on the judges’ scorecards in my first title fight—a fight that many fans feel I won—I have been focused on one single goal: getting another shot at the belt,” said Boucher. “Конечно, that opportunity is here and I don’t plan on allowing anything to stand in my way of achieving my main goal which is winning the flyweight title! I’m doing everything that I need to do in order to make sure that the judges don’t play a role in the outcome on June 22nd. Special thanks to all of my sponsors and supporters for helping me on my way back to the belt fight—I vow to make you all proud at ‘All-American’ in Lewiston.”

Robert Presley, known as “The Warrior,” comes to Maine all the way from Lancaster, Ohio to challenge for the flyweight title. He was victorious in his most recent bout last January via unanimous decision. With this being his tenth amateur bout, Presley plans on turning pro soon after. He represents both 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu and the Lancaster Academy of MMA.

“On June 22nd, I will be flying in from the little town of Newark, Ohio to go to war with Nate Boucher for the NEF flyweight title,” said Presley. “I don’t know much about Nate, but I will be honored to share the cage with him. По оваа борба, I am turning pro. I’ve learned a lot from my amateur career and am ready to showcase my talent. Many thanks to NEF for giving me a chance to please their home crowd. I hope everyone is ready for a battle!"

ЗА ОБЈАВУВАЊЕ ВЕДНАШ: LEWISTON, Мејн (Мај 22, 2019) - Нова Англија бори (NEF) се враќа во Колизејката банка Андроскоггин во саботата, Јуни 22 со својот следен настан во мешани боречки вештини, “NEF 39: СЕ-АМЕРИКАНСКИ.” Претходно денеска, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur title fight to the card. Carlton Charles (3-2) ќе се соочи Jordan Norman (2-1) for the vacant amateur middleweight belt.

Prior to entering the MMA ranks, Carlton Charles made his mark on the football field. He played for Windham High School in Windham, Maine and later led the team to a Class A title as an assistant coach. Charles went on to play fullback for the University of Maine Black Bears. He made his NEF debut in the summer of 2017 with a 23-second knockout win. He would top that performance with a 12-second knockout victory in February 2018. After an unsuccessful attempt at capturing the amateur welterweight title against Duncan Smith (5-3) last June, Charles returned to the cage one month ago in New Hampshire and picked up yet another first-round knockout win.

“Како и секогаш, I feel blessed and very grateful for the opportunity to fight for the belt,” said Charles. “I know Jordan has come a long way in this sport and is always training hard and improving. I will be looking to not be caught by one of those big meat hooks that he has for hands. He’s a big powerful guy, and I’m going to be training hard as always to be able to go out and perform to my best ability. I know my coaches will have me ready for this one! have no doubt in my mind the fans will be in for a real treat with this one.”

Jordan Norman has indeed come a long way since his NEF debut last June. He lost that evening via first-round knockout, but Norman would come firing back in his next two bouts. He won a split decision over John Assam (0-1) минатата есен, and just last month finished Greg Ishihara (0-1) in the second round. Norman represents the Bad Little Falls Dojo.

“I’m honored for the opportunity to get into the NEF cage and compete for the amateur title against someone like Carlton,” exclaimed Norman. “He and I will put on one hell of a show for the Lewiston crowd. Both of us come to fight and it won’t be any different on June 22nd. I have nothing but respect for him and his team. I’m excited for the task at hand and scrapping it out for the middleweight title.”

The middleweight title fight between Charles and Norman is the fourth already announced for the “NEF 39” card. Josh “Hook On” Harvey (6-0-1) is scheduled to defend the professional featherweight title against Jordan Downey (5-4), while Nate Boucher (4-3) will square off with Robert Presley (5-4) for the vacant amateur men’s flyweight belt, and undefeated Glory Watson (4-0) takes on Caree Hill (4-1) to crown NEF’s first amateur women’s flyweight champion. Also announced for the card, Џеси “Викинг” Ериксон (9-7) faces Lewis Corapi (8-5) in a professional lightweight bout.

A capacity crowd of over 1100 was on hand for the action.
