Bruce Boyington to make CES MMA debut in August

...While this marks Boyington's first fight with Classic Entertainment and Sports, it is the latest in a wide-ranging career across the Northeast and beyond.

Boyington, 14-10 in his career, shined in NEF for a time, and eventually he earned a four-fight contract with World Series of Fighting. In the past year, Boyington has fought in Russia and at Madison Square Garden. His last competition came once again in NEF, as he fought a boxing match that resulted in a no-decision after both fighters were cut by an incidental headbutt.

CES 45 is scheduled for August 11 at Twin River Casino. His opponent Andrews is 10-1 in his career.

Boyington stopped in second round of nationally televised MMA bout

Bangor-area fighter Bruce Boyington is not a grappler by nature.

So when he scored a second-round takedown during his nationally televised mixed martial arts bout at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, Rhode Island, on Friday night, it became a disadvantage.

Local favorite Nate “The Snake” Andrews, fighting from his back, soon cinched in a triangle choke on Boyington that forced a tapout at 2:14 of the second round of their scheduled three-round lightweight clash on the main card of CES 45.

The victory was the fifth straight since August 2014 for the 33-year-old Andrews, an East Providence, Rhode Island, product who now is 11-1 with all his victories coming by submission (six) or knockout (five).
