The title picture in Professional Fighters League figures to be much more clear going forward.
PFL CEO John Martin revealed the organization’s championship plan in a social media post on Wednesday. Martin acknowledged that knowing exactly who the title holders in the PFL were became especially confusing after the promotion purchased Bellator MMA. That was compounded by the PFL tournament and past season formats, which crowned champions at their conclusions.
“Historically, the PFL crowned champions through its season or tournament format, where the winner held the title for that year. I recognize this created some confusion about who truly sat atop each division,” Martin wrote on X.
