PFL 2021 Championship Press Conference set for September 29
The PFL 2021 season is coming to a close.
With the conclusion of the point-based tournament comes another six million dollars to be rewarded to the victors who scratched and clawed their ways to the top.
Promotional newcomers such as former UFC champions Anthony Pettis and Fabricio Werdum had high hopes while reigning champions were expected to remain consistent. However, neither of those things happened as Pettis and Werdum didn’t win a single fight, and former season winners such as Natan Schulte and Lance Palmer were left on the outside looking in.
Some familiar faces still won their way through as a 2019 rematch at welterweight sees Ray Cooper III look for redemption against Magomed Mgomedkerimov. In the women’s lightweight class, two-time Olympic gold medalist Kayla Harrison is still an unbeatable force — for now.
