The lineup for the third PFL event of this season is now complete.
The promotion announced on Monday the full lineup for 2023 PFL 3, which is set to go down April 14 at The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas.
These newly announced fights, which include fan favorites and two former champions, join the previously announced matchups that make up the main and co-main event in Olivier Aubin-Mercier vs. Shane Burgos and Sadibou Sy vs. Jarrah Al-Silawi.
2019 PFL lightweight champion Natan Schulte takes on former UFC veteran and 2022 PFL runner-up Stevie Ray in a matchup at 155 pounds. Schulte is on a two-fight winning streak, with his most recent victory being a submission over Jeremy Stephens this past November. Ray also competed in November, where he lost to Aubin-Mercier in the 2022 PFL lightweight final.
The other former champion added to the card is Raush Manfio, who won the 2021 PFL lightweight season. He’ll be taking on Alexander Martinez. Manfio last fought in June, also losing to Aubin-Mercier – a result that snapped a five-fight winning streak.
Additionally, Clay Collard, one of PFL’s most exciting fighters, will take on Yamato Nishikawa to close out the preliminary card.
