FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Portland, Maine (August 17, 2024) – New England Fights (“NEF”) presents its next mixed-martial-arts event “NEF 59: Flashpoint,” on Saturday, September 7, 2024, at Aura in Portland. Earlier today, the fight promotion announced the addition of an amateur bout to the card. 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐓 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐍 (4-0) will put his NEF Amateur Middleweight Championship on the line against 𝐉𝐎𝐄 𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 (4-4) in a bout scheduled for five rounds.

Undefeated Brett Martin is a perfect 3-0 in the NEF cage since debuting at “NEF 45” in 2021. He would go on to win the promotion’s middleweight title last September over Lee McHugh (6-4) via unanimous decision. The fight with Peters will see Martin defend the belt for the first time. He currently represents First Class MMA and the Choi Institute.

“It's been a long layoff between fights despite trying to get back in the whole time,” said Martin. “I haven't taken time off from the gym at all. I can't wait to get back in and show how much I've developed against a tough opponent like Joe. I'm in this sport to challenge myself and push my limits. The belt, my record, is all for the people who got me here. I'm entering this fight with one goal, be violent, and I know Joe will meet me in the center and show me violence in return.”

Challenger Joe Peters is 3-1 in the NEF cage with all three wins coming by way of stoppage. Like Martin, Peters began competing in the sport in 2021. He is currently riding a two-fight win streak overall including a second-round submission of Curtis Ouellette (3-6) last November at “NEF 55.” Peters represents Karasu Tengu Academy.

“I cannot wait for this,” exclaimed Peters. “I’ve been friends and came up on the scene with Brett since the start for us both. We have been meant to fight since the beginning and I am looking forward to us putting on an epic performance together. As his friend, I won’t be holding back, and I expect the same—nothing but our best!”
“NEF 59: Flashpoint” takes place on September 7, 2024, at Aura in Portland, Maine. Doors will open at 6 pm with the first fight taking place at 7 pm. Tickets are on sale now at https://bit.ly/NEF59.
