Like Baltazar, Nate Dorr also made his amateur MMA debut in 2022 and is currently undefeated with two wins. His first fight was against Tyler Parent last spring at “NEF 47” in Auburn, Maine. Dorr was able to pull out a unanimous decision victory in that bout. He would return at “NEF 48” for his sophomore fight against Clifford Redman. Dorr defeated the more experienced Redman via technical knockout in the first round. He represents Acadia BJJ based in Ellsworth, Maine.

“The belt has always been in my sights,” said Dorr. “I’ve been training for that title shot this entire time and I feel ready. Didn’t expect a shot this early, but I have every intention of wearing that belt after the fight.”

LANGSTON STEPS IN TO REMATCH RICHARD AT NEF 46 Lauantaina

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Helmikuu 8, 2022) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 46: Decade of Dominance,” on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. The leading regional promotion launched on February 11, 2012. Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the addition of a professional featherweight bout to the fight card.Carl Langston(0-6) ottavatZac “Rocky” Richard (1-0) at a fight weight of 145 kiloa.

Langston stepped in on short notice to replace Richard’s previous opponent Urias Osorio (0-0) who pulled out of the fight earlier in the week. Likewise, Langston was recently left without an opponent on the “NEF 46” card when his originally-scheduled opponent Shaun Ray (2-1) revealed to promoters that he could no longer pass medicals to obtain a fight license.

The bout will now be a rematch of the first meeting between Langston and Richard that took place last November at “NEF45.” That fight, which was Richard’s professional debut, saw Richard defeat Langston by technical knockout in the first round. Langston says the outcome will be different this Saturday.

“When I got asked to take this rematch on short notice it was a no brainer for me,” said Langston.  “Thank you to NEF for the opportunity and Zac’s team. This fight is going to have a very different outcome.”

“I’m very disappointed in the original fight being dropped,” noted Richard. “However, I worked too hard to sit on the sidelines and watch. I’m thankful to still have the opportunity to fight.”

"NEF 46: Decade of Dominance” takes place this Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary.

LANGSTON IN SEARCH OF FIRST PRO WIN AT NEF 46 ON FEBRUARY 12

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Tammikuu 11, 2022) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 46: Decade of Dominance,” on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. The leading regional promotion launched on February 11, 2012. Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the addition of a professional lightweight bout to the fight card.Carl Langston(0-6)is scheduled to take onShaun Ray(2-1) at a fight weight of 155 kiloa.

Carl Langston will look for the first win of his professional career – a career stretching back to 2018. Prior to that time, Langston won seven fights as an amateur. He is a lifelong martial artist, having practiced taekwondo since the age of six and medaling in the sport at the Junior Olympic level. Langston is currently competing as an independent fighter.

“This fight is make it or break it for me,” noted Langston.  “I have every tool to best Shaun and any of my last opponents, I just have to show up mentally. I have had some major positive life changes with the start of this New Year with more to come, and I feel that’s going to help play a major role in this fight. I’m ready to bite down on my mouthpiece and get this finish. I don’t feel like Ray is a true 55er—he’s very small for the weight class—so the jump up to 55 to fight him is a testament to my skill set. I’m going to be the breakthrough fighter of 2022.”

Shaun Ray made his NEF debut last summer at “NEF 44” in Milford, New Hampshire in a losing effort to Caleb Hall (4-0).  Ray is a graduate of Easton High School in Easton, Maryland. He is currently a resident of Waterville, Maine. Like Langston, Ray is also an independent fighter.

“I am thankful for the opportunity to test my skill against a very well-seasoned striker,” said Ray.  “I have known Carl and followed his fight career for seven years. I have a lot of respect for him as a fighter. As for myself, I am just doing what I love to do. I feel this is an excellent match up.”

"NEF 46: Decade of Dominance” takes place on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. Ovet avataan klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.

Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the addition of a professional lightweight bout to the fight card.Mohammad Al Kinani(0-0)on määrä kohdataChris “Ironfist” Rooney (0-1) at a fight weight of 155 kiloa.

The fight will be the professional debut for Al Kinani who finished his amateur career with an impressive record of 9-1.

Six of Al Kinani’s nine victories have been finishes, including a 34-second knockout in his final amateur fight last fall. The fight with Rooney will be Al Kinani’s first in his home state of Maine in over three years. He represents Evolution Athletix based in Saco, Maine.

“This fight on February 12th is the first step of a long journey that I’ve been dreaming of for quite some time,” said Al Kinani. “It’s going to be a fight that’ll start and end with a handshake, but you know how I roll once I’m locked in there. It’s all business, vauva. Se mitä teen: I take care of fucking business.”

Chris Rooney will make his first appearance in the NEF cage on February 12, but he is a longtime MMA veteran, having competed in the sport since February 2011. He won twelve fights as an amateur prior to making his professional debut last September. Rooney trains at Sargent Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in St. Albans, Vermont.

“I am very excited to announce that my next fight will be against Mo Kinani for New England Fights,” stated Rooney. “Though this will be my second fight as a professional, this will be my debut with NEF. I am looking forward to showcasing my knockout power and overall abilities as a mixed martial artist. Even though the fans in Maine may not yet know the name Rooney, they won’t forget it after they witness my iron-fist power.”

GRIMARD AND VASTA SET TO GO PRO AT NEF 46

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Marraskuu 30, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 46: Decade of Dominance,” on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. The leading regional promotion launched on February 11, 2012. Aiemmin tänään, NEF ilmoittanut lisäksi ammatillinen höyhenenkevyt bout taistella kortti. Former NEF Amateur Featherweight ChampionNathaniel Grimard (0-0) is scheduled to take onAnthony Vasta (0-0) klo taistelu paino 145-kiloa.

Nathaniel Grimard made his NEF MMA debut in September 2019 at “NEF 40: School of Hard Knocks.” That night, Grimard submitted Justin Kangas (0-3) via armbar in the first round. During the pandemic lockdown, Grimard competed twice in Florida and improved his record to 3-0. His unbeaten record positioned Grimard to challenge for the then vacant NEF Featherweight Championship. Elokuussa, Grimard stopped Brandon Maillet-Fevens (3-2) in the second round at “NEF 44: Back in Black” to become the 145-pound titleholder. Grimard got right back in the cage at “NEF 45: Uprising” to defend his strap against Billy Wilson (7-1) from the famed Jackson Wink MMA camp in New Mexico. Grimard lost a laborious five-round decision that made Wilson the new champion. Nyt, Grimard hits the reset switch as he plans to turn professional against NEF newcomer, Anthony Vasta. Grimard edustaa Somersworthin Nostos MMA:ta, New Hampshire, jossa hän harjoittelee UFC:n ja Bellator-veteraanien johdolla, ja entinen NEF Professionalin kevytsarjan mestari, Devin Powell (10-5).

“I can’t imagine a better way to start my pro career than on NEF’s 10th anniversary card,” Grimard stated. “I have big goals for myself and I’m ready to take on anybody in my way. I have nothing but respect for Vasta and his martial arts skills, but I have never been more focused.”

Anthony Vasta will also be making his professional debut at NEF 46. Vasta and Grimard made their respective MMA amateur debuts within a couple of months of each other. Vasta and Grimard share another common tie, as both competed on the same card in Florida during the pandemic. Vasta has a 1-1 amateur record and trains at Defensive Edge Martial Arts Academy in Wakefield, Massachusetts.

“Being able to make my professional debut against another rising New England fighter that I respect is exciting,” Vasta stated. “It’s time to take the next step in my career, put my skills to the test, and seize the opportunity. My style is really unorthodox and hard to prepare for. I plan to go out there and put on a dominant performance against another tough prospect of this division.”

"NEF 46: Decade of Dominance” takes place on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. Ovet avataan klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.

ASSAM VS KANGAS SET TO STRIKE AT NEF 46 10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY EVENT

Jätä kommentti

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Marraskuu 24, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 46: Decade of Dominance,” on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. The leading regional promotion launched on February 11, 2012. Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the addition of an amateur welterweight bout to the fight card.Jon Assam (2-3) is scheduled to take on former lightweightJustin Kangas (0-3) klo taistelu paino 170 kiloa.

Jon Assam will have fought for NEF for four straight years when he steps in the cage on February 12th. The Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) staple most recently made Austin Hamilton (0-3) retire on the stool in between rounds when they faced-off at the Hampshire Dome last August at “NEF 44: Back in Black” in New Hampshire. Assam will be looking to extend his win streak to two when he shares the cage with Kangas in February.

“I’m very excited to be part of another NEF event, always good cards and good fights,” Assam stated. “I don’t like to do much talking outside of the cage, but my opponent can expect the same thing I expect from him—the best version of ourselves—and we’ll see whose best is better.”

Justin Kangas has struggled to find his first win in NEF, having dropped losses to a who’s who of young up and coming talent including Nate “The Mule White (5-0) and former NEF Featherweight Champion Nathaniel Grimard (4-1). Standing 6’3”, the cut to 155-pounds has always been a struggle for the moonlighting mixed martial artist who spends his days working as a school principal. Having finally found the rhythm between his professional life and passion for training, Kangas is confident that the move up in weight class will help him secure that elusive first win in the NEF hexagon.

“I am extremely excited to step back into the NEF cage. It has been far too long. Covid has been rough on us all in a variety of ways, but if there is a silver lining, it’s that it gave me a ton of time to work on my deficits. When I first started fighting for NEF, I was only nine months into my training, and I was a fish out of water on the ground. Each fight gave me a lot to reflect on and gave me a full picture of what needed to change. Covid may have stopped a lot of things in our country, but it didn’t stop me from training and growing as a fighter.

“My weaknesses have become new passions and strengths for me. Losing and identifying faults doesn’t break me down. It excites me. Nothing is more rewarding than improving yourself. Have no doubt, I have done just that.

“After all the time off, I made the decision to jump up a weight class. I have been working hard to put on weight the right way over the last year and a half and have come leaps and bounds in my confidence and technique on the feet, the cage and the ground. I am a far more well-rounded and skilled fighter. I look forward to showing off that work.

“Jon Assam is a veteran in the NEF cage and he always goes to war. I am excited to share the cage with him and I know the fans won’t be disappointed. I took this fight because I knew it would push me to my limits and that’s how exciting fights are made. I don’t take fights looking for an easy win to pad my record. I’m here to push and challenge myself. My past three opponents have a combined record of 12-4. Expect nothing less than a battle in that cage.”

"NEF 46: Decade of Dominance” takes place on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. Ovet avataan klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.

MURRAY VS FAULKNER SET TO CLASH FOR WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP

Jätä kommentti

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Marraskuu 23, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 46: Decade of Dominance,” on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. The leading regional promotion launched on February 11, 2012. Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the addition of an amateur championship bout to the fight card. Former NEF Lightweight Contender“Magic” Mike Murray(3-2) is scheduled to move up in weight to faceZach Faulkner (4-1) for the currently vacant NEF Welterweight Championship at a fight weight of 170 kiloa. The Championship was recently vacated when former title holder Mike Bezanson (5-0) publicly stated that he will be turning professional in his next bout.

Mike Murray has dazzled fans since he made his NEF debut in June 2019. After rattling off impressive back-to-back first-round rear-naked-choke submission victories in his first two fights, Murray faced off against Zac Richard (1-0) for the then vacant NEF Lightweight Championship. After a lively five-round fight, Murray lost a decision to Richard. Murray rebounded with a win in Florida. Murray recently retired from a successful service career in the US Marine Corps.

“I’m extremely grateful and excited to be back after two years outside of the cage, and to be given the opportunity to fight for the 170-pound title against an absolutely game opponent,” Murray stated. “I personally feel like we are each other’s best match up after seeing his striking and jiu jitsu in his last fight. I’ve been two years out of the cage, but not two years out of the fight. This past summer alone, I went undefeated in Muay Thai, and had 15 jiu jitsu matches, and placed increasingly higher in each tournament. My prediction for this fight is that it’ll be the most entertaining amateur fight on this card – if not this year. I’ve been putting in the work to be the most lethal version of myself, and I believe this is the best I’ve ever been coming into a fight. There’s no animosity going into this one, this is purely two dogs getting locked in a cage. I’m so thrilled to be a part of this incredibly special 10-year anniversary card. This will for sure be a night to remember.”

Zach Faulkner made his triumphant NEF debut in 2017 at “NEF 30: Rumble in Bangor” and has remained perfect inside the NEF hexagon ever since. He most recently won a unanimous decision victory over Curtis Ouellette (1-3) last August at “NEF 44” in New Hampshire. He trains with Jon Deupree (1-0) at Recon Fitness in Westbrook, Maine.

“I’m super excited to not only have the opportunity to fight for the NEF welterweight title, but also to be able to fight on such a big card against a tough, game opponent,” Faulkner stated. “Winning would mean a lot to me because it would show that my fight journey is moving in the right direction and show that I’m ready to start to think about moving up to the next level.”

"NEF 46: Decade of Dominance” takes place on Saturday, Helmikuu 12, 2022, at Aura in Portland, Maine. The event will commemorate NEF’s ten-year anniversary. Ovet avataan klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.

NEF RETURNS TO MAINE WITH STACKED FIGHT CARD FEATURING FOUR TITLE FIGHTS

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Lokakuu 22, 2021) – When the bell rings at 7 pm EST to start the show on Friday, Marraskuu 5, it will be the first time New England Fights (NEF) has presented a mixed-martial-arts (MMA) event in its home state of Maine in 21 months. Shortly after the venerable fight promotion held “NEF 42” at Merrill Auditorium in Portland on February 8, 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic gripped the state and the nation. The resulting shutdown forced the indefinite postponement of “NEF 43” which was scheduled to take place in Orono, Maine later that spring. With the state not fully opening for combat sports events until well into 2021, NEF decided to turn to neighboring New Hampshire to hold “NEF 44” last summer. “NEF 45: Uprising” on November 5 will see the fight promotion make its long-awaited return to action in Maine, as well as close out its first decade of business. The event will originate from Aura in Portland.

Aiemmin tänään, NEF announced the full fight card for “NEF 45.” It is scheduled to feature a total of 21 bouts with four championships to be decided.

Vuonna päätapahtuma ilta, Josh “Hook On” Harvey(7-1-1) will defend the NEF Professional Featherweight Title against the challenge ofAguilando Brandao(9-8).  Harvey has held the championship since February 2019. Brandao is a tough veteran with more than 15 years of cage experience.

The co-main event will seeMark “Pockets” Gardner(1-2)ottaaNick Alley (7-4) in a professional welterweight contest. Both competitors are veterans of global promotion Bellator’s cage. Both will be looking to bounce back from losses in their respective previous bouts.

Zac “Rocky” Richard (0-0) tekee hänen ammatillisen debyyttinsä vastaanCarl Langston(0-5) after a successful amateur career that saw Richard capture the NEF 155-pound title. Langston seeks his first win as a professional fighter.

In other pro bouts, Matt “Ken Doll” Denning(5-10) meets former University of Southern Maine wrestling standoutJon Deupree (0-0) in Deupree’s pro debut, while former NEF Professional Middleweight ChampionCJ Ewer(3-3) taistelutShaun Ray (2-1) in the welterweight division.

The amateur portion of the fight card will be headlined by three title fights: Caleb Austin(5-0) kasvotTyler Smythe (2-1) for the vacant flyweight belt; Felipe Günter(3-0) is scheduled to square off withTeddy Politis (2-0) for the vacant bantamweight championship; jaNathaniel Grimard(4-0) will defend his newly-won featherweight strap againstBilly Wilson(6-1).

The sole women’s fight of the evening will also take place on the amateur card asBJ Garceau(1-1) meets the debutingHayley Martin (0-0) in a strawweight bout. Garceau last appeared in the NEF cage three years earlier at “NEF 36.”

“It feels like forever since we had a fight in Maine—and what a card to come back with,"Sanoi NEF osaomistaja ja matchmaker Matt Peterson.  “So many prospects in this lineup, so many undefeated fighters putting their perfect records on the line, so much at stake for so many impressive athletes putting themselves to the test on November 5th. Four title fights. For headliner Josh Harvey, his next fight could be the last chance to see him compete before he gets the call to the UFC —he’s that close. Leading up to the main event we have several undefeated amateur athletes that are on the cusp of turning pro and trying to follow in Harvey’s footsteps. AURA is the place to be November 5th!"

BJ GARCEAU WILL RETURN TO THE CAGE AT NEF 45 AGAINST HAYLEY MARTIN

Jätä kommentti

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Lokakuu 7, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 45: Uprising,” on Friday, Marraskuu 5, 2021, at Aura in Portland, Maine. Earlier today, NEF announced the addition of an amateur women’s strawweight bout to the fight card.BJ Garceau tapaaHayley Martin at a fight weight of 115 kiloa.

The fight will see Garceau (1-1) return to the NEF cage after a three-year absence. She made her debut at “NEF 32” in February 2018 with a split decision win over Sarah Ziehm (1-2).  Garceau then lost via technical knockout to Chelsea Tucker (3-3) in the third round of their bout at “NEF 36” in the fall of that year. She had been scheduled to make her return to action at “NEF 43” in 2020 kunnes COVID-19-pandemia pakotti tapahtuman lykkäämään. Garceau edustaa Youngin Bangorin MMA:ta, Maine.

"En voi uskoa, että astun takaisin häkkiin taas tänä marraskuussa,huudahti Garceau. ”Kun jouduimme lopettamaan harjoittelun viime vuonna, Tuntui kuin olisin menettänyt perheeni, terveyteni, ja se iski minuun henkisesti ja fyysisesti. Olin sekaisin. Kerran siis (Youngin MMA-päävalmentaja) Chris Young ja monet muut upeat valmentajat muista kuntosaleista sanoivat "tule kotiin" a/k/a "palaa salille",’ Lopulta tunsin itseni taas kokonaiseksi, kun olimme matoilla. En uskonut, että se toistuisi, mutta rehellisesti kaiken sen jälkeen, mitä maailmassa on tapahtunut ja henkilökohtaisesti viimeiset 18 kuukautta, En ole koskaan halunnut taistella näin pahasti. Olen kiitollinen mahdollisuudesta ja rehellisesti se olisi voinut olla kuka tahansa, joka seisoi minua vastapäätä tässä vaiheessa. Olen iloinen voidessani hylätä Hayleyn, ja lupaan etten petä ketään tuossa häkissä!  Sanoisin enemmän, mutta minun on mentävä junaan. Tehdään tämä!"

Hayley Martin tekee häkissä debyyttinsä taistelussa Garceaun kanssa NEF 45 -tapahtumassa – vain muutaman viikon kuluttua hänen juhlimisestaan 50th syntymäpäivä. Martin on itsenäinen taistelija, jonka unelma on ollut aktiivisesti kilpailla MMA: ssa.

- Olen innoissani astumasta häkkiin, testaa taitojani ja näytä, miltä kova työ ja omistautuminen näyttää,"Sanoi Martin.  ”Olen tällä matkalla, koska en ole koskaan tuntenut mitään, mikä saa minut tuntemaan oloni elävämmäksi, vahva ja itsevarma. Ja kun se hetki tapahtuu 5. marraskuuta, Jätän kaiken häkkiin ja taistelen perseestäni jokaisen naisen puolesta, jonka mielestä unelmat eivät voi toteutua."

"NEF 45: Kapina” tapahtuu perjantaina, Marraskuu 5, 2021, at Aura in Portland, Maine. Ovet aukeavat klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.

LEHDISTÖTIEDOTE: Portland, Maine (Syyskuu 21, 2021) - New England Fights (NEF) returns with its next mixed-martial-arts (MMA) tapahtuma, "NEF 45: Uprising,” on Friday, Marraskuu 5, 2021, at Aura in Portland, Maine. Earlier today, NEF ilmoitti lisäävänsä amatöörihöyhensarjan mestaruusottelun taistelukorttiin. Hallitseva NEF-amatöörien höyhensarjan mestariNathaniel Grimard(4-0) puolustaa vyötään vastaanBilly Wilson (6-1).

Syyskuun debyyttistään lähtien 2019, voittamaton Nathaniel Grimard on noussut yhdeksi New Englandin MMA-piirin parhaista amatöörimahdollisuuksista. Grimard esitti Justin Kangasin (0-3) ensimmäisellä kierroksella NEF 40:ssä Oronossa, Maine. Covid-19 pandemian aikana, ja siitä johtuva taisteluurheilutapahtumien sulkeminen koillisalueella, Grimard piti itsensä aktiivisena taistelemalla Floridassa, jossa hän voitti kahdesti. Viime kuussa ”NEF 44” -kilpailussa hän voitti NEF:n amatöörien höyhensarjan mestaruuden Brandon Maillet-Fevensin vaikuttavalla toisen erän teknisellä tyrmäyksellä. (3-2).  Grimard edustaa Somersworthin Nostos MMA:ta, New Hampshire, jossa hän harjoittelee UFC:n ja Bellator-veteraanien johdolla, ja entinen NEF Professionalin kevytsarjan mestari, Devin Powell (10-5).

"Olen erittäin innoissani voidessani taistella Portlandissa tähän mennessä kovimpia vastustajiani vastaan," sanoi Grimard. ”Billy tulee erittäin uskottavalta kuntosalilta, jolla on vähän enemmän kokemusta kuin minulla, mutta se motivoi ja innostaa minua tässä taistelussa. Uskon, että tästä tulee hieno taistelu, ja odotan saavani parhaan suoritukseni tähän mennessä."

Billy "The Kid" Wilson saapuu Maineen haastajana marraskuussa 5th.  Kuudesta voitostaan, Wilsonilla on neljä maalia kolmella teknisellä tyrmäyksellä ja yhdellä luovutuksella. Hän on kilpaillut lajissa aktiivisesti kesästä 2017 lähtien. Wilson edustaa tällä hetkellä Jackson Winkia Albuquerquessa., New Mexico – maailmankuulu MMA-koulutusakatemia, jonka luettelossa lukee "kuka kuka" UFC-mestareista ja legendoista kuten Jon Jones (26-1) ja Holly Holm (33-2-3) nimetäkseni muutamia.

"Olen erittäin siunattu, että minulla on mahdollisuus lähteä ulos ja matkustaa aivan uudelle alueelle kilpailemaan," sanoi Wilson, kun hän tavoitti kommentin.  ”Olin juuri vaihtanut leirini Jackson Winkille, ja uskon, että fanit näkevät kokonaan uuden taistelijan."

"NEF 45: Kapina” tapahtuu perjantaina, Marraskuu 5, 2021, at Aura in Portland, Maine. Ovet aukeavat klo 6 iltapäivällä ensimmäisen taistelun kanssa klo 7 pm. Liput ovat nyt myynnissä klowww.Ticketmaster.com.
