Meeting lofty expectations with consistent performance has proven elusive for Stuart Austin.
The Team Titan standout will open his 2022 campaign in the Professional Fighters League when he meets defending heavyweight champion Bruno Henrique Cappelozza in the PFL 2 headliner on Thursday at Esports Stadium Arlington in Arlington, Texas. Austin, 34, has won three of his past five bouts. However, he finds himself on the rebound following a 31-second knockout loss to Renan Ferreira at PFL 8 on Aug. 19—the quickest defeat of the Englishman’s 22-fight career.
