When all is said and done, the 2025 Professional Fighters League will conclude in
four and a half months.

The promotion released the locations and dates for its three Finals
events to conclude its World Tournament series this year. While the
dates were already rumored to be Aug. 1, Aug. 15 and Aug. 21, the
league confirmed them on Thursday. The first finals event will be
held at the Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey;
the second takes place at the Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte,
North Carolina; the season ultimately concludes at the Seminole
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

In the first of three shows,
the Aug. 1 card will feature the five-round tournament finals
matches for the welterweight and featherweight divisions. This is
the first crop of fighters who will be debuting in the opening
round on April 3, with Jason
Jackson and Logan
Storley currently favored to go far at 170 pounds while odds
see Movlid
Khaybulaev and Gabriel
Braga as featherweights expected to move on.

The second finals event comes on
Aug. 15 in Charlotte, where women in the flyweight division and
men in the bantamweight bracket vie for the $500,000 checks as
tournament champs. In those weight categories, betting odds have
not yet been released but fighters expected to perform well include
former finalist Taila
Santos and Bellator MMA flyweight queen Liz
Carmouche, while once-beaten Kasum
Kasumov and grappler Leandro
Higo have targets on their backs.

Finally, the 2025 World Tournament season wraps up on
Aug. 21 in Florida, the state where the tourney kicks off in
April. A whopping four title tilts will play out on that
event—cutting down the number of scheduled 25-minute engagements on
each given night compared to six on previous Championships cards or
10 on the most recent in 2024—with lightweights, middleweights,
light heavyweights and heavyweights seeking supremacy. Due to a
litany of unexpected setbacks, numerous fighters have been forced
out of this tournament, whether to injury or other encountered
issues.
