Brendan Loughnane achieved his dream of becoming PFL champion.
The veteran fighter won the PFL featherweight title and the $1 million prize after stopping Bubba Jenkins (19-6) in a fourth-round TKO on Friday night in New York at 2022 PFL Championships. Loughnane (26-4) envisioned this moment since he signed with the promotion in 2019.
“That’s why I was so emotional when I finished him, I was just like, ‘Wow, it’s over – the goal I’ve had,'” Loughnane told reporters at the post-fight press conference (via MMA Sucka). “I’ve had this up on my wall since I joined the PFL. That’s how serious I was about this sh*t. I didn’t come here to play around. You just watched a young lad achieve his dream.”
