Professional Fighters League event of 2024, the organization
has dropped a final trailer to raise awareness of its pay-per-view
event on Oct. 19.
The headliner of “Battle
of the Giants” is highlighted, with no words needed as the
impact of former
Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight king Francis
Ngannou and PFL heavyweight champ Renan
Ferreira draws the attention of spectators and helicopters as
they tear through the streets leading towards their clash in
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
It will be a historic night for the PFL, with Ngannou’s promotional
debut and a stacked main card. The co-main event will feature mixed
martial arts’ only grand slam champion in Cris
Cyborg, who will be back in action for the first time since
Bellator 300. Her opponent is reigning champion Larissa
Pacheco, who is the only woman to carry championships in two
PFL weight classes.
There will be a third title fight for this massive event, as
Bellator middleweight champion Johnny
Eblen will face Fabian
Edwards in a rematch from their 2023 scrap. In their first
meeting, Eblen picked up a third-round TKO victory, but Edwards
bounced back with a victory over Aaron
Jeffery in a No. 1 contender match, earning his second chance
at the strap.
Also on the card will be a featured fight between former champion
A.J.
McKee and recent free-agent signee Paul
Hughes.
PFL’s “Battle Of The Giants” pay-per-view event takes place on Oct.
19 and will be live from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and will be
available in the United States on ESPN+ PPV and worldwide on DAZN
PPV.
