Jeff seems like a very well-rounded, experienced fighter and this should be a battle for the NEF fans to enjoy.”

With a background in Karate and wrestling, Watts began training in MMA in 2009.

First ever Bantamweight title for NEF. What an honor! Victorie, lose, or draw–it’s going to be a crazy night. I’m excited to show some skills I’ve never shown before. Let’s put a show on John.
