First PFL Super Fights PPV Announced

The first PFL Super Fights pay-per-view was announced today and it looks to pit the sitting PFL champions against Bellator MMA’s champions. 

Since Bellator MMA was acquired by the PFL last year, one question lingering among fighters and fans was what they would do with the brand. A champion vs champion card was mentioned but nothing much came from it. Still, with the two rosters intermingled, the PFL has a chance to do something unique and, it looks like they’re doing it. 

In a press release from the PFL, it was announced Riyadh Season has revealed that the Professional Fighters League (PFL) and the General Entertainment Authority (GEA) will host an unprecedented pay-per-view mega event – PFL Champions vs. Bellator Champions – from the state-of-the-art Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, February 24.
