Taila Santos wants a rematch with Dakota Ditcheva, but she wasn’t holding her breath on meeting her once again in a PFL tournament.
Santos (22-4) and Ditcheva (14-0) were the two finalists for last year’s PFL women’s flyweight tournament. It was a big fight for the promotion, as it pitted a former UFC title challenger against one of the best undefeated talents today. In the end, Ditcheva walked away with a finish, the 2024 PFL title, and the $1 million prize.
“Every fighter need to know how to handle a loss because a loss leaves you a lot more to learn than a win,” Santos told Hablemos MMA in Portuguese. “Defeats give you the chance to reflect and see what you need to improve. So I’m grateful for that loss. I can’t stay down and sad after winning three fights and then suffering a loss.
