Money is cool, but Josh Silveira is looking for something a bit more meaningful to his sense of martial arts accomplishment.
For the second straight year, Silveira (12-1 MMA, 5-1 PFL) is on the verge of a $1 million prize. He faces former UFC fighter Impa Kasanganay (14-3 MMA, 4-0 PFL) in a light heavyweight final at 2023 PFL Championships. The event takes place Nov. 24 at The Anthem in Washington, D.C., and streams on ESPN+.
“I would say the belt (means more than money),” Silveira recently told MMA Junkie Radio. “The belt drives me the most. Being champion, having that title, being part of a good organization and really cementing my name. The sport is growing. I think I have a good personality. I think I fight well. I think the money is going to come in all shapes and sizes.
