Marcin Held seeks return to UFC after PFL run

Marcin Held has fought for numerous organizations in his 13-year career and, unsurprisingly, there’s one he’d like to get a chance to prove himself with again.

After making a name for himself as one of Bellator’s best lightweights, Held made the jump to the UFC in 2016 and was immediately matched up against some of the promotion’s most well-known veterans. He lost to Diego Sanchez at an event in Mexico City and then dropped a highly contested decision to Joe Lauzon.

Held went 1-3 with the UFC before parting ways with the promotion and competing for Russia’s ACB (now known as the ACA) promotion.
