The final regular season Professional Fighters League card of the year
is officially on the books.
Per a release from the tournament-based league on Friday,
PFL 6: 2024 Regular Season, which will feature the
featherweight and welterweight divisions, is now official. Twelve
fights are on the docket, including one alternate bout at 170
pounds and a non-tourney “featherweight showcase” bout to start off
the prelims. Of the six brackets currently operating in the PFL’s
main grand prix, 145 pounds is the only one where all five fights
see a points-holding winner taking on an opponent that lost earlier
in the season.
Serving as the main attraction to the June 28 fight card at the
Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, will be a
featherweight scrap between Brendan
Loughnane (27-5) and Justin
Gonzales (14-4). Loughnane, winner of the 2022 season, picked
up six points in April by punching out Pedro
Carvalho in under 90 seconds to sit as the current top seed.
His opponent Gonzales suffered a first-round stoppage loss to
Gabriel
Braga, with “J-Train” currently riding a three-fight skid.
The marquee match for welterweights comes between two men that lost
in April, as Logan
Storley (15-3) faces Laureano
Staropoli (13-6). Former interim Bellator MMA beltholder Storley has dropped two of
three since vying for the unified strap in early 2023. Storley fell
short against Yaroslav
Amosov, rebounded by punching out Brennan
Ward a few months later and introduced himself to the PFL in a
losing effort to Shamil
Musaev. Staropoli too was finished in April, as Murad
Ramazanov throttled him with a rear-naked choke to put an end
to a four-fight win streak.
