The
Professional Fighters League on Tuesday announced that it will
not be extending Mix’s contract. That will allow the bantamweight
standout to pursue other options. Mix was one of a number of former
Bellator
MMA athletes who had expressed frustration over a lack of
activity since the promotion was purchased by the PFL.
“Professional Fighters League and Patchy Mix have mutually agreed
not to extend his contract. We both decided that this is the best
course of action for PFL and him,” the PFL wrote in a statement.
“Patchy is a fantastic fighter and we wish him well. PFL is excited
to crown our next 135-pound champion in the PFL World
Tournament.

Mix fought once with Bellator after the PFL buyout, as he defended
the bantamweight belt with a split-decision triumph over Magomed
Magomedov at Bellator Champions Series Paris. The 31-year-old
New Yorker has been victorious in 20 of his 21 professional
appearances. His current seven-bout winning streak includes
victories over the likes of Kyoji
Horiguchi, Magomedov (twice), Raufeon
Stots and Sergio
Pettis.
