即時發布: 奧羅諾, 緬因 (二月 25, 2020) - 新英格蘭戰鬥 (NEF) 將展示其未來的混合武術 (MMA) 事件在柯林斯藝術中心緬因州的旗艦奧羅諾大學校園。事件, 名為“NEF 43: 亂鬧,“將於週六, 四月 18, 2020, 與鐘時間 7 美東時間下午。今天早些時候, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur featherweight bout to the card.Brandon “BAMF” Maillet-Fevens(3-1) 將面臨Nathaniel Grimard(1-0) 在戰鬥重量 145 英鎊.

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 where he trains under UFC veteran and former 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,” said 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.”

發表評論

即時發布: 奧羅諾, 緬因 (二月 20, 2020) - 新英格蘭戰鬥 (NEF) 將展示其未來的混合武術 (MMA) at the Collins Center for the Arts on the University of Maine’s flagship Orono campus. The event, 名為“NEF 43: 亂鬧,“將於週六, 四月 18, 2020, 與鐘時間 7 美東時間下午。今天早些時候, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional bantamweight bout to the card.弗雷德·李爾 (0-1) 將在Jason Rine (1-7) 在戰鬥重量 135 英鎊.

弗雷德·李爾, who wrestled and played football for John Bapst Memorial High School in nearby Bangor, 緬因, had one of the most successful amateur careers in NEF history. Lear finished his amateur career in 2019 以創紀錄 6-2-1 and an NEF Amateur Bantamweight Title to his credit. He entered the professional ranks last April in Portland, 緬因, losing his debut to Bryant Bullock (2-1) via second-round submission. 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, 我餓了, 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, 俄亥俄, 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.”
