Ray Sefo on PFL’s Bellator purchase, Chris Wade’s weight miss and more

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Most fight weeks have a little drama for the bosses behind the scenes.

This week in Washington, D.C., there’s been plenty of it for PFL president of fighter operations Ray Sefo. After the dust started to settle from the big Monday announcement that Bellator had been sold to the PFL, Sefo had to deal with a weight miss for Chris Wade on Thursday and the fallout from that.

Sefo spoke to MMA Junkie about Bellator, Wade, Kayla Harrison, the six $1 million finals and more following Thursday’s ceremonial weigh-ins. Check out the interview in the video above.

The 2023 PFL Championship event takes place Friday at The Anthem in Washington, D.C. The main card airs on pay-per-view (ESPN+) following prelims on ESPN+.
