Former UFC Light Heavyweight Tyson Pedro Comes Out of Retirement, Signs With PFL

Former UFC light heavyweight fighter Tyson Pedro is coming out of MMA retirement. The 34-year-old has revealed that he has signed with PFL.

Pedro will be debuting inside the SmartCage in 2026, as ‘Kangaroo Paws’ revealed to Ariel Helwani. He said:

“I just signed with PFL Global, and I will be fighting next year… There’s so much going on in the boxing world, and I didn’t really understand the complexities of it. I had almost probably retired from fighting, and then I hooked up with my new team, and I got an offer from PFL… I was all for it.
