The women’s lightweight and men’s featherweight match-ups for the inaugural PFL Challenger Series are here.
PFL released the match-ups for their upcoming PFL Challenger Series via press release on Wednesday.
The featherweights and women’s lightweight rosters were reported last week.
Per Wednesday’s press release,
“The women’s lightweight event will be headlined by a match-up of European kickboxers who have made the move to MMA. The Czech Republic’s Martina Jindrova (3-2) is a combat sports veteran and four-time Czech national kickboxing champion. She will be taking on a fellow kickboxer in Portugal’s Jacqueline Cavalcanti. Cavalcanti (2-0) has an extensive striking resume and is undefeated in her young MMA career.”
“EFC champion Reinaldo Ekson and Mike Barnett will square off in the main event of the March 11 featherweight card. Ekson (16-5) is a well-rounded Brazilian fighter who will be making his North American debut and looking for a ticket to the 2022 PFL Season. Barnett (11-3) is a finisher who has three first-round stoppages on his ledger.”
