Anthony Pettis informed via his Twitter profile that he didn’t quit on winning the $1 million prize money offered by the Professional Fighters League each season.

The former UFC lightweight champion will take part in the upcoming 2022 season, which is expected to kick off later this year. Pettis will join the ranks of promotion’s lightweight division, making it his second tenure in PFL.

Showtime joined the league-based organization after completing his contract with the UFC in 2020. By doing so, he became one of the main additions to the roster, next to UFC veteran and former Bellator welterweight champion Rory MacDonald.
