The 2024 PFL Regular Season had its sixth event on Friday night, and MMA News has you covered with all the action!
The Professional Fighters League was back this week, as the organization concluded its latest global regular season with the second round of welterweight and featherweight matchups going down from the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
In the 145-pound main event, 2022 champ Brendan Loughnane returned to action following a successful start to his pursuit of gold in April. The Brit stopped Pedro Carvalho at PFL 3 for a six-point finish.
In his final stop before the playoffs, Loughnane was tasked with getting the better of Justin Gonzales, who was coming off a first-round knockout loss to Gabriel Braga.
In the main event of the evening, 2022 PFL Featherweight Champion Brendan Loughnane continues his quest for a 2nd PFL title when he faces Justin Gonzales in Regular Season action!
