PFL featherweight champion Brendan Loughnane would be more than happy to play support to YouTube boxer Jake Paul when he makes his transition into MMA next year.
Paul has taken an ownership stake in the MMA promotion, which is regarded as the No.2 in the world behind only the UFC, that will include his own cage debut, likely in 2024. He will also play a key part in running their 'super fight' division along with business partner Nakisa Bidarian, which will feature star athletes such as Francis Ngannou, Claressa Shields and Kayla Harrison.
And Loughnane, who is competing in his third season this year as he looks to keep hold of his featherweight belt, fancies a lighter schedule after what could be eight fights within a 19-month period. Should the offer come to be a part of the super-fight division, he would be eager to join Paul on what would be a massive pay-per-view card.
