The Professional Fighters League kicked off the PFL Europe season on Saturday, March 25 in New Castle, England, with fighters looking to earn a spot in the league’s regular season — with $100,000 in prize money also on the line.
Among those in action, women’s flyweight standout Dakota Ditcheva. While the PFL doesn’t currently feature a flyweight division for the ladies, the league also featured the weight class as part of this year’s PFL Challenger Series — with the 125lb weight class potentially being brought in for the 2024 season.
Closing out the night was a light heavyweight showdown featuring Brit Simeon Powell taking on Mohamed Amine. Amine, a kickboxer, was pulling double duty while still actively competing for GLORY.
