Professional Fighters League star Impa
Kasanganay claims the PFL has the strongest crop of
middleweights.

Kasanganay is set to face former middleweight champion Johnny
Eblen at
PFL Austin on Saturday, July 18, for the interim middleweight
title, the first-ever interim championship fight in PFL history.
Ahead of the bout, the former
Ultimate Fighting Championship talent has reiterated his belief
that his current promotion’s 185-pound roster is as good as it
gets.

Impa Kasanganay explains why he rates the PFL middleweight
division above the rest

Kasanganay believes that the top tier of PFL’s middleweight
division is a reflection of the best 185-pounders in the world. In
a promotional video posted by the PFL on X, „Tshilobo“ said:

“What makes this matchup so competitive, you know, is the best
middleweights in the world, right? I mean it. Across organizations,
you say, OK, who are the best guys at what they do? I’m there,
Johnny’s there, and you see the top five… Like John Martin said,
this Top 5 in the PFL is probably the best one in the world
currently.”

The PFL middleweight championship currently sits with Costello
van Steenis. An injury to the Dutch-Spaniard opened the door
for July 18’s interim title booking. Eblen enters the bout as the
No.1-ranked middleweight, having lost the title to van Steenis in
2025. Meanwhile, Kasanganay is the No. 3-ranked middleweight.
