Professional Fighters League full roster, rules, 2018 event schedule revealed
In less than two months, the restructured Professional Fighters League (formerly World Series of Fighting) begins a new era, promising to bring a “regular season and playoffs” format to MMA that is common practice in major sports leagues such as the NFL, NBA, and NHL.
PFL only ran three minor events in 2017, closing out the remaining dates on its old contract with NBC Sports Group. Now under a new broadcasting deal with both NBC Sports Network and Facebook, the first PFL show is set for June 7th in New York City, with the featherweight and heavyweight divisions comprising the entire card.
Featherweights
Andre Harrison vs. Jumabieke Tuerxun
Lance Palmer vs. Bekbulat Magomedov
