PFL MMA

The Professional Fighters League (PFL) is a leading global mixed martial arts (MMA) organization, recognized as the second-largest MMA company in the world. Founded in 2017 by Donn Davis, the PFL rebranded from the World Series of Fighting and launched its first season in 2018. Headquartered in the United States, the league is led by CEO Peter Murray and broadcasts its events on ESPN. The PFL features a unique seasonal format that includes a regular season, playoffs, and a championship, similar to traditional sports leagues. It has six weight divisions and a "Super Fight" division for high-profile fighters. The league hosts around 30 events annually across five continents, offering a $1 million championship prize for each division's champion. The PFL aims to engage MMA fans with its structured competition and compelling narratives, while also attracting fighters with financial incentives and innovative technology like the SmartCage.
