It’s been a tumultuous series of news cycles for the PFL in recent months, but Wednesday the promotion announced the plan for its next set of tournaments.
Starting in April, the PFL will hold a series of single-elimination tournaments over eight weight classes. Each division will have eight fighters, and the promotion said in a news release the total prize money will be $20 million.
No fighters were announced for the tournaments Wednesday. The PFL said a roster reveal for the brackets will take place next month. There will be just one women’s division: flyweight. There will be seven men’s tournaments in the standard divisions from bantamweight up to heavyweight, but no men’s flyweight tournament.
