List of current PFL fighters
The Professional Fighters League, formerly known as the World Series of Fighting prior to April 2017, is an American mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion that was started in 2012 and based in Washington, District of Columbia.
The 2020 PFL season consists of seven regular-season events, a bracket-style playoff, and a $10 million postseason prize pool. The season begins with 72 athletes, 12 in each of the six different weight-classes, with one fighter in each division earning the title of champion.[1][2]
The PFL postseason will be held in October on consecutive Saturday nights, with a win-or-go-home elimination format. The season-ending event will feature championship fights for each of the six weight classes on New Year's Eve in prime time. The six champions will earn $1 million each in prize money.[3][2]
This list is an up-to-date roster of those fighters currently under contract with the PFL. Unless otherwise cited, all records are retrieved from tapology.com.
