Mike Hansen é o membro fundador de Berserkers MMA con sede en Rumford, Maine. É un exalumno do Mountain Valley High School (MVHS) onde gañou un campionato estatal de loita como peso pesado 2004. Hansen fixo o seu debut en MMA pouco despois de graduarse no instituto, só para afastarse do deporte durante unha década para servir ao seu país como enxeñeiro de combate no exército dos Estados Unidos.. Volveu á gaiola de MMA 2015 como membro da lista de NEF. Despois de reiniciar a súa carreira cun rexistro de 2-1, Hansen deixou caer o seu primeiro combate 2016 a Zach Elkins (1-1) mes pasado. El buscará recuperarse desa derrota Abril 23.

 

“Estou desexando volver á gaiola despois desta derrota,” dixo Hansen. “Non estaba mentalmente nesa loita, así que esta vez con Baughman, Vou estar mentalmente centrado. Jesse é un tipo grande e un loitador duro – e parece un tipo co que me podería levar ben. Así, cando rematemos de esnaquizarnos, esperemos que poidamos tomar unha copa.”

 

Como Hansen, Baughman é un veterano militar dos Estados Unidos, onde serviu nunha unidade de recoñecemento das forzas especiais e obtivo unha certificación de nivel tres en combates do exército. Actualmente é membro do Team Link con sede en Hooksett, Nova Hampshire. Como loitador afeccionado de MMA, Baughman elaborou un rexistro perfecto de 5-0 e foi o número un do peso semipesado da rexión nordeste antes de converterse en profesional. Baughman fixo o seu debut profesional o pasado mes de novembro en “NEF 20” contra Matt Andrikut (2-0).

 

“En 23 de abril, Estou desexando volver alí e facer un espectáculo,” Dixo Baughman. “Os meus fans de New Hampshire queren ver unha guerra – e mellor cren que o farán! Mike Hansen é un rival digno. El sabe entrar, esta será unha batalla sanguenta ata o final. Teño os mellores mozos que me están preparando para este enfrontamento. Moitas grazas a Taylor Trahan, Kevin Haley, Brett Trahan e Rob Belliveau.”

NEF TO OPEN 2016 WITH SPECTACULAR FIGHT CARD

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (Xaneiro 6, 2016) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF), Número un promoción loita rexional de América, realizará o seu próximo evento, “NEF 21: Os inmortais” en Sábado, Febreiro 6, 2016 no Colisée Androscoggin Bank en Lewiston, Maine. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed-martial-arts (MMA) e combates de boxeo profesional. hoxe cedo, NEF announced the full fight card for the event which will be the fight promotion’s first of 2016.

 

A pair of professional boxing bouts will be featured on the main card of the evening. Joel “Baby Bull” Bispo (0-0-1) returns to action after more than a year’s absence to face MMA regular Crowsneck Boutin (0-0) in a light-heavyweight four-round bout. Northeast Junior Welterweight Champion Brandon “O Canón” Baga (10-1) will attempt to make it three wins in a row when he steps in the ring to face undefeated Tollison Lewis (2-0) in a six-round, non-title, super-welterweight contest. Both Berry and Lewis are coming off wins in the boxing ring at “NEF XX” en novembro pasado.

 

The professional portion of the MMA card will be headlined by the long-awaited meeting between Bruce “Pretty Boy” Boyington (12-8) e Jon Lemke (5-3). Dubbed “The Battle for Bangor,” with both men living and training in the Bangor, Maine area, Boyington’s NEF MMA Professional Lightweight Title will be on the line. Number-one contender Lemke will be looking to capture the first championship of his MMA career.

 

The co-main event of the evening on the professional MMA card will see local Lewiston-Auburn favorite Jesse “O Viking” Erickson (6-4) asumindo Devin Powell (4-1) in a lightweight matchup. Powell returns to the NEF cage for the first time since May 2014, while Erickson will be looking for his fourth consecutive win in Lewiston.

 

A total of three title fights will headline the amateur MMA side of the card. Young’s MMA standout Josh Harvey (5-1) defends his lightweight title against Florida’s Andrew “Ling-Ling” Tamayo (8-1). Caleb Farrington (3-0) eRicky Dexter (4-2) will decide the first-ever NEF MMA Amateur Welterweight Champion, mentres Henry Clark (3-1) e Johnny Crafts (3-0) meet to determine the inaugural amateur bantamweight titleholder.

 

Alén, Erin Lamonte (5-0) e Randi Beth Boyington (1-2) are scheduled to face off in a women’s MMA bout. It will be a rematch of a contest won by Lamonte at “NEF XX.” Boyington’s supporters in the audience felt that the referee stopped the bout prematurely as Boyington was about to break out of, or had already broken out of, Lamonte’s armbar submission. After much back and forth among their respective supporters on social media, the rematch is expected to settle the issue once and for all.

MIDDLEWEIGHT BOUT ADDED TO NEF 21 TARXETA DE LOITA

Leave a comment

Lewiston, Maine (Decembro 16, 2015) - Fights Nova Inglaterra (NEF), Número un promoción loita rexional de América, realizará o seu próximo evento, “NEF 21: Os inmortais” en Sábado, Febreiro 6, 2016 no Colisée Androscoggin Bank en Lewiston, Maine. The fight card is scheduled to feature both mixed-martial-arts (MMA) e combates de boxeo profesional. hoxe cedo, NEF announced the addition of a professional middleweight bout to the “NEF 21” tarxeta da loita. Michael “O Bigode” Hansen (3-2) asinou para atender Zach “The Torch” Elkins (0-1) cun peso de loita de 185 quilos.

 

Hansen is the head coach and founding member of Berserkers MMA based out of Rumford, Maine. He won a state championship as a heavyweight wrestler for Mountain Valley High School (MVHS) en 2004. Hansen began his MMA career shortly after his high school graduation, but put that career on hold to serve in United States Army as a combat engineer. A principios de 2015, Hansen returned to the cage as a member of the NEF MMA roster. He put together a record of 2-1 in his first year back, including a win over the “2014 Loitador do Ano” Crowsneck Boutin (1-2). The fight with Elkins will be Hansen’s first foray into the middleweight division after having competed in the heavyweight and light-heavyweight ranks previously.

 

“Zach is a good fighter with a lot of experience in the cage,” said Hansen over his upcoming opponent. “He’s probably looking to come up here and leave with his first pro win. It won’t be that easy, and he will have to earn it, ’cause I intend to send him back to Florida with another loss.”

 

Zach Elkins is no stranger to the NEF fans. A member of Team Riot in Orange Park, Florida, Elkins appeared previously for the fight promotion headlining the amateur portion of the “NEF XIII” fight card in the spring of 2014. That evening, Elkins made short work of the northeast’s then-top ranked amateur middleweight Buck Pineau (1-2), scoring a first-round TKO. Elkins was ranked nationally as an amateur, and he held the ISCF Florida State Middleweight Championship for over a year. He lost his professional debut in the fall of 2014, and now Elkins is looking to pick up the first win of his pro career.

 

“I want to thank Matt and Nick (Peterson and DiSalvo, NEF owners) both for having me back on their show in February,” said Elkins when reached for comment. “I will be ready to put on another exciting fight for the fans in Maine and bringing home another ‘W’ for my team in Florida, Riot MMA.”
