MONTOYA STEPS UP TO FACE SANDERS ON SEPTEMBER 8 ÎN BANGOR

Lasă un comentariu

Bangor, Maine (August 8, 2018) - Lupte New England (NEF) își va desfășura următorul eveniment de arte marțiale mixte, “NEF 35: Wicked Season,” pe Septembrie 8 la Cross Insurance Center din Bangor. Mai devreme astăzi, the fight promotion announced the addition of a professional welterweight bout to the card. “The” Ryan Sanders (16-9) se va confrunta cu Armando “Big Chino” Montoya (10-6) la o greutate de 170 de luptă-lire sterline.

The bout will be the third for Sanders in front of his hometown friends, family and fans. He is undefeated in the Queen City, where Sanders trains at Young’s MMA. He scored a decision over Derrick Kennington (13-11) two years ago at “NEF Presents Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight” and a submission of Jay Ellis (15-78) last year at the Cross. Global, Sanders is on a roll, having won six of his last seven. During that stretch, he captured the NEF Professional Lightweight Title, knocked out veteran John Ortolani (8-13) in a mere 15-seconds, and literally tore Vince McGuiness’ (5-8) arm out of its socket earlier this summer at “NEF 34” în Portland, Maine.

Unfortunately for Sanders, his meteoric rise to the top of New England’s 155-pound division over the course of the last two years has come with consequences. He has called out virtually every other top lightweight prospect in the region in recent months with the sound of crickets as the only response. It is a testament to both Sanders’ skill and the respect, (or fear for that matter), that his peers hold for him. Hence Sanders’ move to the heavier welterweight division to find opponents willing to step in the cage across from him.

“I am excited that I get another chance to fight in my backyard,” said Sanders. “I appreciate Montoya for taking this fight because not many men are willing to fight me regionally. I look forward to displaying my ever evolving tool set come Septembrie 8 and getting another step closer to being the best in the world. It’ll be a great night for Young’s MMA and myself.”

Armando Montoya is a longtime veteran of the MMA cage. He started his professional career back in 2009 on the West Coast and has competed extensively throughout the Southwest over the years. Montoya has fought for national promotions like King of the Cage and the Resurrection Fighting Alliance. Recent, Montoya relocated to Maine where he trains with First Class MMA in Brunswick. The bout with Sanders will be his first fight back from a layoff that began in early 2017.

“I’m excited to be fighting again after a year and a half off,” said Montoya. “Thanks to NEF and Maine for the opportunity to be able to fight for an awesome promotion. Thanks to Sanders. It’s exciting to fight a worthy opponent in September. God is good, God bless us all!”

EWER WILL TRY TO MAKE CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY AT NEF 32

Lasă un comentariu

Lewiston, Maine (Decembrie 28, 2017) - Lupte New England (NEF) returns to Lewiston on Saturday, Februarie 3, 2018 cu urmatorul eveniment mixt de arte marțiale promovarea lupta lui, “NEF 32: Super Saturday.” Mai devreme astăzi, NEF announced the addition of a professional championship bout to the card. CJ Ewer (3-0) se va întâlni Kemran Lachinov (5-2) for the vacant NEF MMA Professional Welterweight Title.

 

 

The bout will put Ewer in a unique position – to hold titles simultaneously in two weight divisions. It is a feat that has been attempted but never accomplished in NEF. Ewer is the reigning professional middleweight titleholder of the organization. He captured that title with a victory over Mike Hansen (5-8) last summer at “NEF 30” in Bangor, Maine. It took Ewer less than two minutes to finish Hansen with an arm triangle choke. The win not only earned Ewer the middleweight title but also a nomination for “2017 Submission of the Year.” Should Ewer emerge victorious over Lachinov on February 3, he will stand atop both the welterweight and middleweight divisions. He represents Young’s MMA of Bangor.

 

 

“My opponent is fierce with a granite jaw and an iron will,” a declarat Ewer. “He’s by far the toughest fighter I’ve faced, and there will be a lot of pressure going into this fight given that it’s a title fight. I always rise to the level of competition and promise you’ll see the best, most prepared CJ you’ve ever seen.”

 

 

Kemran Lachinov is a seven-year veteran of the New England MMA scene. He is also a two-fight veteran of the Bellator cage where he remains undefeated. Lachinov is currently riding a three-fight win streak which began in early 2017. He will look to continue that success into 2018 starting with his bout against Ewer. Lachinov represents Team Link of Ludlow, Massachusetts.

2017 Rookie ANULUI REVENIREA LA Cușca LA NEF 32

Lasă un comentariu

Lewiston, Maine (Decembrie 27, 2017) - Lupte New England (NEF) revine la Lewiston peSâmbătă, Februarie 3, 2018 cu urmatorul eveniment mixt de arte marțiale promovarea lupta lui, “NEF 32: Super Sâmbătă.” Mai devreme astăzi, NEF a anunțat adăugarea unui card de amatori pentru femeile cu greutate galantă pe card. Jayda “Lil Killah” Curte interioară în castele feudale(1-0) este programat pentru a face față Amanda Gallo (0-1) la o greutate de 135 de luptă-de lire sterline.

Jayda Bailey a apărut în acest an când a devenit cea mai tânără atletă care a concurat vreodată într-o luptă MMA sancționată în Maine. La doar opt zile după a 18-a aniversare, vârsta minimă legală pentru un participant MMA în stat, Bailey a pus împreună o performanță dominantă în debutul ei împotriva Danae Dostie (0-1) la “NEF 31.” I-a trebuit puțin peste 90 de secunde pentru a obține o victorie TKO. Atât de impresionant a fost câștigul, încât i-a adus lui Bailey o nominalizare “Rookie of the Year.” Fanii au fost de acord și l-au votat pe Hermon, Adolescent din Maine ca beneficiar al premiului. Bailey este în prezent membru al Young’s MMA din Bangor. Vara asta, la absolvirea liceului, ea intenționează să se mute în Albuquerque, New Mexico, unde ea se va alătura Jackson Wink MMA Academy – acasa, la mai multe vedete de top UFC.

“Eu nu pot să aștept să-și intensifice în cușcă din nou și va afișa abilitățile mele,” Bailey said. “Mă uit pentru a obține mai bine de fiecare dată când mă lupt, și eu sunt încântat să se confruntă cu o nouă provocare.”

Această nouă provocare va veni sub forma lui Amanda Gallo. Gallo se antrenează cu Robson Moura Nations United (RMNU) cu sediul în Tampa, Florida. A debutat în cușcă în toamna anului 2016 împotriva Laine Orabona (2-2) pe o carte de luptă în Georgia. Concursul palpitant a trecut de la distanță și l-a văzut pe Gallo pierzând o decizie divizată foarte strânsă asupra judecătorilor’ scorecard. Va veni în Maine în căutarea primului câștig al tinerei sale cariere.

următor eveniment mixt de arte marțiale ale FEN, “NEF 32: Super Sâmbătă,” se va vedea compania face revenirea la Colisée Androscoggin Bank din Lewiston, Maine. Evenimentul este programat să aibă loc pe Sâmbătă, Februarie 3, 2018. Biletele sunt la vânzare acum online lawww.TheColisee.com.

Angela Young (2-2) se va întâlni Jessica “Văduva Neagră” A plati (5-3) la o greutate de 135 de luptă-de lire sterline.

If there is anyone who knows about putting on exciting fights, it is Angela Young. The wife of Young’s MMA founder Chris Young, o mama, and a full-time nurse, she has brought the heat in all four of her previous contests for NEF, earning several “Lupta de noapte” honors. Young had the crowd on the edge of its seat for her thrilling encounter with Christine Brothwell earlier this year – a fight she won via unanimous decision. She has never backed down, even when on the losing end of a slugfest like the one she had with Kylie O’Hearn on Cape Cod last year, and it has made her one of the most popular fighters with the NEF audience. Based on their styles, Young predicts yet another strike-fest full of fireworks when she meets Borga on August 5th.

“I’m beyond excited for the match up with Borga for NEF in Bangor,” a spus Young. “I respect her as a fighter and even more so for traveling to Maine once again take a fight. Neither one of us are afraid to stand and bang, making this a fight people aren’t going to want to miss.”

Jessica Borga of Florida will make the trip north to compete in Maine for the third time in less than a year. She made her NEF debut last September and quickly became a favorite of Pine Tree State fight fans. Last November, Borga put on a dominant performance in Lewiston, winning a unanimous decision over black belt Brianne Genschel. She has captured multiple regional titles in the southeast portion of the country. Borga looks forward to returning to fight in front of her Maine fans once again.

“I can’t wait to be back at NEF for 2017,” exclaimed Borga when reached for comment. “I’ve been waiting to come back and show what I’ve learned. I appreciate Angela Young stepping up to put on a show for everyone. I’ll be ready and can’t wait to show my improvements.”

“I’ve taken some time off from the cage since my last fight, but I’ve never stopped training,” said Young when reached for comment. “Young’s is growing, and team training has been elevated to a higher standard because of the new talent. I’m looking forward to stepping back in the NEF cage in February. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while, and you better believe I’m coming for a win.”

 

Like her opponent, Brothwell is a registered nurse. She is based in New Hampshire and is a member of team Bucket Brigade in Nashua. While she will be making her NEF debut on Februarie 11, Brothwell is no stranger to the MMA cage. She has competed twice previously and she promises a memorable fight for both Young and the fans in Lewiston.

 

“I fully respect my opponent, her abilities and training, but I train with the best in New England,” stated Brothwell. “Câștiga sau pierde, you will always remember the time you fought me. This won’t just be the best female fight on the card, it’s going to be fight of the night.”

EX-TEAMMATES TO FIGHT IN MAIN EVENT OF NEF 26

Lasă un comentariu

 

Lewiston, Maine (Octombrie 3, 2016) – Mai devreme astăzi, Lupte New England (NEF) executives announced the main event of “NEF 26: SUPREMACY.” “The” Ryan Sanders (11-8) se va confrunta cu Jon Lemke (5-6) in a lightweight bout at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston on Sâmbătă, Noiembrie 19.

 

At one time, Sanders and Lemke were teammates at Marcus Davis’s Team Irish gym in Brewer, Maine. That all changed when Sanders left and joined cross-town rival Young’s MMA in Bangor.

 

“I’m very happy to be fighting back in Lewiston,” said Sanders. “I’m thankful that Jon took this fight seeing how several top-ten lightweights turned it down. But that’s why I like Jon, he’s a fighter’s fighter and he never backs down from a tough fight. Acestea fiind spuse, I look forward to developing a game plan that’ll shut down his strengths and have my hand raised at the end of the night.”

 

The bout will be Sanders’ second since returning to the NEF fold. Sanders defeated Derrick Kennington (11-8) august anul trecut la “NEF Presents Dana White: Lookin’ for a Fight.” He recently inked a multi-fight developmental deal with NEF.

 

“Ryan Sanders and NEF go way back,” stated Sanders’ coach Chris Young when asked about Sanders’ recent signing of an NEF developmental deal. “Ryan fought on several NEF shows, including headlining ‘NEF I.’ Așa, it’s only fitting that Ryan has finally found his way home. A hard working athlete deserves a hard working promotion and I believe NEF is the perfect vehicle to give Ryan that last push into the next level.”

 

Lemke will be coming into the fight hungry for a win. His last victory in the NEF cage will have been almost a year to the day when he defeated Matt Denning (3-4) în Lewiston la “NEF XX.” Lemke is coming off a loss to NEF MMA Pro Lightweight Champion Devin Powell (8-1) this past August in Bangor.

 

“What a great opportunity I have been presented by New England Fights to fight Ryan Sanders,” a spus Lemke. “Ryan has been in, and done well, with the very best of New England. He is a well-rounded fighter and will challenge me in all areas. I very much look forward to this challenge and know that there will be fireworks for sure in this fight.”

 

The opening bell on Saturday, Noiembrie 19 este setat pentru 7 p.m. Biletele încep de la $25 și sunt disponibile la www.TheColisee.com sau sunând la box-office Colisee la 207.783.2009, extensie 525.

YOUNG’S & FIRST CLASS MEET IN SECOND TITLE FIGHT AT NEF 25

Lasă un comentariu

Lewiston, Maine (Iunie 28, 2016) – Less than 24-hours after the announcement of the amateur light-heavyweight title fight between Young’s MMA’s Victor Irwin (2-0) and First Class MMA’s Nick Shea (2-0), fight promotion New England Fights (NEF) released a second championship bout between the two gyms at “NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS.” Undefeated Rafael “Air Guard” Velado (3-0), Shea’s teammate at First Class MMA, este programat pentru a face față Jimmy Jackson (3-2), a teammate of Irwin at Young’s MMA, for the vacant NEF mixed-martial-arts (MMA) amateur lightweight title. The title was previously held by Josh Harvey (1-0) of Young’s MMA and vacated last April when he moved up to the professional ranks.

 

“În primul rând, I appreciate the opportunity that NEF has given me to show my skills in the cage,” Said Velado. “There are other promotions in New England, but nobody puts on a show like NEF. I’ve made it very clear that I am here to fight the toughest guys I can and once again I’m getting my way.”

 

In Velado’s last fight, he took on and defeated Mike Peitersen (3-1). In doing so, Velado handed him the first loss of his career. Peitersen is another teammate of Jimmy Jackson at Young’s MMA.

 

“Leading up to the Mike Peitersen fight, he and I respectfully challenged each other to train hard and bring it,” Velado continued. “I believe that we did that and then some. Now I have another Young’s fighter in front of me and I couldn’t be happier. Jimmy Jackson has been looking good in his last few outings and I believe we are a good match-up. I see a trend of BJJ players who come over into MMA and think they are just going to jits their way through every fight. I can assure you that I am not that guy and you will see a constant evolution of skills in my fights.”

 

Jackson will have the opportunity to gain a measure of revenge for his team against Velado. After starting his amateur career at 1-2, Jackson has won his last two in a row, including a submission victory over Kris Welch (0-1) la “NEF 16” anul trecut.

 

“Fighting Raf is a huge opportunity for me – an opportunity I am very grateful for,” said Jackson when reached for comment. “This is the time for me to show how far I’ve come and how much time and work Chris Young (Young’s MMA head coach) and the rest of the coaching staff and team have put into making me the best version of myself. Fac acest lucru pentru ei, my team and my family.”

 

“I am pumped to be fighting alongside my First Class MMA brothers and sisters in September and I will be so proud to hand that 155 NEF Championship belt to John Raio (First Class MMA head coach) and tell him, ‘There’s more where that came from,"” said Velado in closing. “As far as ‘Heroes & Villains,’ I believe every man or woman who steps in that cage is a hero, but you have to have a little villain inside you to do what’s necessary to win.”

 

evenimentul următor Luptele New England ', "NEF 25: HEROES & VILLAINS,” takes place on Saturday, Septembrie 10, 2016 la Colisée Androscoggin Bank din Lewiston, Maine. Bilete încep de la doar $25 și sunt în vânzare acum la www.TheColisee.com sau sunând la box-office Colisée la 207.783.2009 x 525.
