BOYINGTON ARIN MADAX-ILAA-MADAXA LA RAIO maalmood ka hor ladagaalanka: “WAXAAN AHAY qeybiso tag halkaas dilaan”

NEF_FNVXIII_madeinUSA_FB_final+(1)

Lewiston, Maine (June 10, 2015) - Dagaaladu New England (NEF), America ayaa tiro-mid dhiirrigelinta dagaalka gobolka, qaban doonaa siddeed iyo isku dhafan-martial-fanka ay (MMA) dhacdo, “NEF XVIII: SAMEEYEY America,” Saturday this habeen, June 13, 2015 at Colisee Androscoggin Bank ee Lewiston, Maine. Recently, headliners Bruce “Boy Pretty” Boyington (10-8), Xirfadlaha NEF MMA khafiif Champion, iyo John “Darajada koowaad” Ray(2-7) biiray NEF co-milkiilaha iyo laqabin Matt Peterson ku gaar ah “Madax-ilaa-Head” edition of the NEF Podcast. Boyington and Raio discussed the upcoming rematch and the controversy surrounding their first meeting in February 2014, ka mid ah mawduucyo kale oo.

 

The interview quickly turned to the top of the first fight. Raio appeared to apply a rear-naked choke to Boyington on the mat late in the first round. Boyington began waving his hand in the air and referee Jimmy Bickford quickly stepped in to stop the fight. Much has been made of the infamous “ruxruxo gacanta.” While Bickford saw it as a sign of Boyington’s submission, Boyington ayaa la murmay in ay ahayd oo kaliya digayaan in taageerayaashiisa in dadkii badnaa in dhufayskii samaynayaan wax kasta oo waxyeello lama.

 

“Waxaan kuu sheegi kara sida habeenkaas dhamaaday,” recalled Raio of the first bout. “Asal ahaan, Bruce had given me his back. When I took his back, I had the hooks in and I had the rear-naked choke across his jaw line. I was trying to pressure it under his throat, iyo sidii aan goolka aan muruqiisa bidix iyo gacanta bidix socday madaxiisa ka dambeeya, Garsooraha joojiyay dagaalka… Waan la yaabay in uu taabtay, waayo,, daacad, Waan ogaa in aan cadaadis badan uu daanka… Haddii dhab ahaantii uu ruxaya, in nuugayo isaga.”

 

“In xaaladda in, Waxaan si gaar ah xusuusan Bickford raadinaya igu, Waxaan ahay waajahaan, uu socday for qoorta iyo inaan ruxaya,” Saciid Boyington. “Qof ka bilowdey ciyaya dhabta cod weyn oo waxaan xusuusan Bickford leh, 'No Bruce, ma waxaad dhihi karaa '… Haddii aad u malaynayso in aan soo gudbinaya ama aan ahay in dhibaato ama ma neefsan karaan, you don’t tell the fighter, “Lama odhan karo in,” you just jump in and you stop the fight. I feel like he made a mistake. I feel like he realizes that… Waxaan arki waxyaalo badan oo kala duwan in John ayaa sheegay online, iyo wax badan oo dadka kale ayaa yiri, and that’s when I really started to get bothered by what had happened. I felt like he could’ve handled it better.

 

Ka hor inta aan Boyington kor u siinaya inuu dib, many felt he had been winning that first round. Illeen, Boyington’s striking seemed to be on point that evening. Peterson asked both competitors to speculate on what would have happened had the referee not stopped the bout at that point.

 

“Ciday, Waxaan qabaa John lagu reebay lahaa,” stated Boyington emphatically. “Uma maleynayo qeybiso waxaan ahay isaga submit, because that would be his best chance with me. He’s strong enough to defend a submission.

 

“Waxaan qabaa haddii Garsooraha ma uusan joojin waqtiga, markii aan joogay uu daanka la dhudhun, oo waxaa lagu Waxaan uu gaaray qoorta ka dambeeya,” Ray dhexmarayay, “I believe my arm would’ve slid under his throat and it would’ve ended sometime soon before the round. Sidaas, Uma maleynayo u dhahnaa lahaa aadeen wareega labaad.”

 

Maalmaha, todobaad iyo bilood ee soo socda dagaalka, both Boyington’s and Raio’s massive fan-followings have been very vocal on social media regarding the outcome of the bout. The heated debate has raged between both sides for well over a year now. With so much at stake for each side at “NEF XVIII,” labada ciyaartoyda taabtay waxa ay ku reebeen qeybta ka dhigan tahay iyaga, iyo waxa ay u baahan yihiin si ay u caddeeyaan Isbuucaan soo socda.

 

“Waxaan kaliya oo aan ku tagi kartaa oo aad ku garaacday John,” Saciid Boyington. “Xitaa taageerayaasha isaga u gaar ah ayaa la filayaa in… Ma aan akhriyi karo oo kaliya in halkaas tago on June 13-and beat John Raio. I gotta go in there and destroy him. Or I still lose out on this fight. Waan ogahay in, and I’m gonna go in there and make that statement. And I’m gonna do it with one arm, sababtoo ah gacanta kale aan xitaa hadda shaqeeya… I haven’t worried about this date from day one. It’s nothing to do with John Raio. I don’t disrespect the guy. I don’t not like the guy. He’s a good man. I’m just at another level. I need to show up and prove that. That’s what it is to me. It’s not about me beating John. It’s about me showing everybody where I belong.

 

“In la tixgelinayo Bruce, dhaqso iigu soo dhameysteen, oo sahlaysa, oo aan si dhab ah uga welwel ku saabsan dagaalka oo aad u badan, Waxaan u arkaa in ay ixtiraam sida wax badan oo uu igu yidhi, qoyskeyga iyo saaxiibadeey,” replied Raio. “Waxaa jiray waqtiyo ka dib markii dagaalka la soo dhaafay markii qof ayaa ii hambalyaynaya (on Facebook) and he’d go on like a one or two paragraph rant on every single comment everyone had put on my page for like three days straight. Sidaas, ka dib waxaan ku idhi 'Bruce oo aanan ka run ahaantii saaxiibo dambe,’ so I deleted him. I liked him before that fight… laakiin markii ay dadku i ixtiraam la'aan sida uu leeyahay waa adag tahay in jeclaan ninka.”

In a highly-anticipated rematch, NEF MMA Professional khafiif Champion Bruce “Boy Pretty” Boyington (10-8) takes on rivalJohn “Darajada koowaad” Ray (2-7) in a non-title catchweight contest. Raio scored a victory over Boyington by rear-naked choke in their initial meeting in February 2014.

LIGHTWEIGHT BATTLE ADDED TO PRO PORTION OF NEF XVIII FIGHT CARD

Lewiston, Maine (May 8, 2015) - Dagaaladu New England (NEF), America ayaa tiro-mid dhiirrigelinta dagaalka gobolka, qaban doonaa siddeed iyo isku dhafan-martial-fanka ay (MMA) dhacdo, “NEF XVIII: Diyaaradaha ee America,” on Saturday, June 13, 2015 at Colisee Androscoggin Bank ee Lewiston, Maine. Goor hore oo maanta, the promotion announced the addition of a professional lightweight bout to the fight card. Jesse “Viking The” Erickson (4-4) ayaa lagu wadaa inuu la kulmo Zenon Herrera (0-0) in what will be Herrera’s professional debut.

 

Erickson is a mainstay of the NEF promotion. The native of Auburn, Maine made his amateur debut at NEF I in February 2012. All fourteen of his bouts have been hosted in the NEF cage except one which was part of an NEF co-promotion with Bellator.

 

Currently a coach at Central Maine Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (CMBJJ) – a New England United (CUSUB) affiliate – Erickson challenged unsuccessfully twice last fall for the NEF MMA Lightweight Title, dropping back-to-back losses to Bruce Boyington (10-8). Bishii la soo dhaafay, Erickson returned to the cage against Florida’s Mark DeFord (0-4). The Viking came out aggressive, not letting up with a barrage of lefts, rights and knees. It was a departure from Erickson’s trusted ground game, but it took less than two minutes for him to knock DeFord out cold. If Erickson was looking to make a statement, then that statement was received loud and clear by the raucous crowd of over 2,000.

 

After back to back losses, I’ve really focused in on some of my weak points,” said Erickson. “In aan dagaal la soo dhaafay, I felt much more confident and relaxed, and I think it showed in my performance. I will continue to get better and show everyone the fighter I’ve always known I could be. I’ll never fight safe, try to eke out a decision, or have a boring fight. Come watch me fight and see something special. The Viking is back and he’s swinging Thor’s hammer now.

 

Zenon Herrera, an independent fighter based out of Skowhegan, Maine, began his MMA amateur career in the fall of 2012. Having fought predominantly in Florida previously, he made his NEF debut last month at “NEF XVII” in a losing effort to a very tough Ricky Dexter (3-0). Herrera is a military veteran, having served four years in the United States Army and five years in the United States Marine Corps. He looks forward to making the transition from the amateur to professional ranks and the new challenges it will bring.

 

I’m very much looking forward to this chance of taking myself to the next level of MMA,” Saciid Herrera. “Jesse Erickson is a tough dude and that will make this match all the better. I’m also looking forward to representing the NEF, Macho Fighter, Combatives Gear, and the USMC with all of the pride and honor that they deserve with everything I do in MMA from this point forward.

RIVAL BANGOR-AREA GYMS VIE FOR FIRST-EVER AMATEUR MMA LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE

NEF_FNVXIII_madeinUSA_FB_final+(1)Lewiston, Maine (April 16, 2015) - Dagaaladu New England (NEF), America ayaa tiro-mid dhiirrigelinta dagaalka gobolka, qaban doonaa siddeed iyo isku dhafan-martial-fanka ay (MMA) dhacdo, “NEF XVIII: Diyaaradaha ee America,” on Saturday, June 13, 2015 at Colisee Androscoggin Bank ee Lewiston, Maine. Goor hore oo maanta, the promotion announced that the first NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Champion will be crowned that evening when undefeated Ricky Dexter (3-0), representing Marcus Davis’ Kooxda Irish, qaadan on doonaa Josh Harvey (3-1) of cross-town rival Young’s MMA. The bout will be contested at the lightweight limit of 155-pounds.

 

Dexter and Harvey are regarded as two of the top prospects currently on the NEF MMA roster. Both athletes are undefeated in the promotion’s cage. On June 13, they will carry on a rivalry that has raged in NEF between the Young’s MMA and Team Irish gyms for several years.

 

Both of these young athletes are a testament to their respective gyms, as well as to how far the sport has come in Maine,” ayuu yiri milkiilaha NEF iyo ciyaar yahanka Matt Peterson. “They both came along after NEF was established in the state, and we have seen both of them grow over the past year. We in the NEF front office unanimously believe that Josh and Ricky have a bright future ahead of them in MMA and look forward to this highly competitive bout set to be contested in Lewiston on June 13th."

 

Dexter, currently the top-nine-ranked amateur lightweight in New England, is coming off a first-round submission victory over Zenon Herrera (3-6) last Saturday at “NEF XVII.” Dexter has taken the promotion’s lightweight division by storm since debuting last November. He has stopped all three of his opponents in the first round to earn his shot at becoming the first NEF MMA Amateur Lightweight Champion.

 

I’m honored to be fighting for the NEF Lightweight Amateur Title,” stated Dexter. “To me there’s a lot more on the line than just a belt. On June 13- you better believe I’m bringing it.

 

When fans last saw Josh Harvey in the NEF cage, he had his arm raised in victory after mauling Caleb Hall (5-2) in the amateur opener of “XVI NEF” la soo dhaafay February. It took Harvey a mere 36-seconds to run through Hall, himself a two-time state wrestling champion for Dirigo High School in Dixfield, Maine. Many insiders believe this will be one of Harvey’s final amateur fights before turning professional.

 

“Two top fighters from two top schools, this is a match to be excited about,” stated Harvey when reached for comment. “I have all the respect in the world for Ricky, but there is no where this fight goes that I don’t win.”
