PFL heads to Newcastle tonight to host the inaugural event of the European season where fighters across four weight classes compete for the chance to win $100,000.
Tonight's event at the Vertu Motors Arena will feature light-heavyweight Simeon Powell in the main event whilst Dakota Ditcheva stars in the co-main event, with both British fighters boating unbeaten professional records of 7-0. Powell takes on Glory Kickboxing veteran Mohamed Amine whilst Dakota takes on Malin Hermansson after her original opponent Clara Ricignuolo withdrew due to injury.
PFL boss Peter Murray is excited to host the promotion's first event in North East England as he told Mirror Fighting: "We're happy to be up here in Newcastle and launch the inaugural season of PFL Europe. When we launched the company five years ago it was always with a global vision, the first three or four years we focused on the premium product and season format before we could begin expansion.
