Πόρτλαντ, Μέιν (Φεβρουάριος 7, 2018) - Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF) returns to Aura in Portland onΑπρίλιος 14, 2018 με την επόμενη εκδήλωση μικτές πολεμικές τέχνες-η προώθηση πάλης, “NEF 33: Riptide.” Νωρίτερα σήμερα, NEF announced the addition of an amateur featherweight title bout to the card. Taylor Costantino (3-3) θα συναντηθεί Shawn Long (4-0) for the vacant 145-pound championship.

 

 

 

Taylor Costantino is a native of Long Island, New York where he began his MMA career in 2011 after being crowned a USA and Pan American Sambo champion. After moving to Maine, Costantino continued training and made his NEF debut in early 2016 with a 25-second TKO victory over Frank Johanson (2-2). Επί του παρόντος, he is a member of Evolution Athletix based in Saco.

 

 

 

“I’m very excited to fight in Portland against a tough opponent,” said Costantino. “I’ve never taken an easy opponent, and this fight is no different. I have a lot to prove to my coaches, my teammates and myself – and a man with something to prove is a dangerous man.”

 

 

 

Undefeated Shawn Lunghi has been dominant in two previous NEF cage appearances. The Florida native first traveled north in the fall of 2016, scoring a second round submission of Alex Clark (4-2). Last weekend, Lunghi returned to take on Devin Corson (1-1). It took just over a minute for Lunghi to pull out another submission win on Maine soil. He will have little time to rest after the upcoming battle at “ΝΕΦ 33.” In late April, Lunghi will leave for Fort Bliss, and from there will travel to Afghanistan in May as part of his service in the Army National Guard.

 

 

 

“I couldn’t be more excited to return to the NEF cage for NEF 33 and take a shot at the featherweight title,” είπε ο Λονγκ. “Taylor is an experienced, game opponent and I expect he will be ready for a war. This will be my last fight for awhile as I will be deploying with the Army National Guard for the next year, but I can’t think of a better send off then to win the 145-pound title and celebrate with my RMNU team in Portland, Maine.”

 

 

 

NEF returns to Portland, Μέιν, at Aura on Σάββατο, Απρίλιος 14, 2018. Τα εισιτήρια είναι στην πώληση τώρα στο www.AuraMaine.com. Για περισσότερες πληροφορίες σχετικά με την εκδήλωση, παρακαλώ επισκεφθείτε www.NewEnglandFights.com.

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

Lewiston, Μέιν (Φεβρουάριος 12, 2016) - Νέα Αγγλία Αγώνες (NEF), Νούμερο ένα περιφερειακή προώθηση αγώνα της Αμερικής, θα πραγματοποιήσει την επόμενη εκδήλωση, “NEF 22: Όλοι οι δρόμοι οδηγούν ΕΔΩ” επί Σάββατο, Απρίλιος 22, 2016στο Androscoggin Τράπεζα Colisée σε Lewiston, Μέιν. Η κάρτα αγώνα θα περιλαμβάνει ένα συνδυασμό μικτών πολεμικών τεχνών (ΜΜΑ) και επαγγελματικές περιόδους πυγμαχίας. Νωρίτερα σήμερα, NEF announced the addition of a featherweight contest to the amateur portion of the “NEF 22” κάρτα πάλης. Bantamweight Champion Johnny Χειροτεχνία (4-0) will move up in weight to face Taylor Costantino (2-1) στα 145 κιλά.

 

Crafts was successful last Saturday in his attempt to capture the inaugural NEF MMA Amateur Bantamweight Title. He took out Henry Clark (3-2) in the third round of their bout in Lewiston. Crafts is a decorated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) brown belt out of Team New England United (ΝΕΟ). He also cross-trains with Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) σε Lewiston.

 

“I’m excited to step up to 145 to fight Taylor,” said Crafts of the upcoming matchup with Costantino. “I will be very strong at that weight seeing as I cut pretty extensively to make 135. It will allow me to focus on different areas this camp instead of putting a lot of my energy into cutting weight.”

 

Costantino is himself coming off a big win last Saturday at “NEF 21.” It took him a mere 25-seconds to down Frank Johanson (0-1), a training partner of Crafts at CMBJJ, στον πρώτο γύρο. Costantino is clear that he is coming to fight on Απρίλιος 23, and he does not plan on engaging in a grappling contest with Crafts.

 

“Respect to him for coming up in weight,” said Costantino of Crafts. “He’s a glorified pajama warrior that has never been punched in the face with any type of authority. He will clinch quickly and look for the takedown. He’ll realize real quick that he has never fought or trained with anybody like me.”

 

Crafts and Costantino are not strangers to one another. Several years ago, the two met in a jiu-jitsu tournament with Crafts coming out on top.

 

“Taylor and I have competed before in a sport jiu-jitsu tournament,” recalled Crafts. “Taylor says I am a glorified pajama warrior who has never been punched in the face, but if I recall correctly, I submitted him without my ‘pajamas’ no-gi in that tournament pretty quickly. I train with a lot of very talented and tough fighters daily who punch me in the face very hard. People say the same thing about me not getting punched – καλά, I have had four fights and they just haven’t had the chance to. Anyone who has trained with high-level fighters will tell you that gi jiu-jitsu only makes you more of a technical fighter. If he doesn’t believe that, that is fine – he will feel it on 23 Απριλίου.”

 

“Johnny did submit me when I first moved to Maine,” Costantino admitted. “Legit submission, and his pure grappling is definitely high level. My grappling is MMA based, not slow jitsu. It’s grimy, grueling and punishing. Pure grappling, I would worry about his game. But it’s a fight, sport jiu-jitsu means next to nothing to me.

 

“I wish I could say people will get to see my whole game, but I can’t guarantee that. Johnny will feel my power and look to go to his comfort zone. I will break him, you will see quit in his eyes.”

 

“After Taylor won in impressive fashion at NEF 21, he immediately screamed at me while still inside the cage that he wanted a black belt for his next challenge,” είπε NEF συνιδιοκτήτης και προξενητής Ματ Peterson. “Καλά, he’s getting a brown belt in Johnny Crafts who, by all accounts, is due to receive his black belt any day, is a perfect 4-0 in the cage and is the current NEF amateur bantamweight champion. This fight is dripping with drama and will define a future top contender for the featherweight title in NEF’s stacked 145-pound division.”
