Antonio Carlos Junior enters the 2022 PFL season full of momentum.
The veteran fighter kicks off the new season having won the light heavyweight title and $1 million prize the year before in 2021. In his PFL debut season, Junior (13-5) went unbeaten three fights before submitting Marthin Hamlet with a rear-naked choke in the championship final back in October.
It was a big moment for Junior’s career, as he bounced back from a three-fight losing streak to become the champion of a major organization. But apart from the sporting accolades, it was also a big year for Junior financially.
