Brendan Loughnane has worn a lot of hats in a decade-plus of fighting.
He’s been the unbeaten upstart. The can’t-miss prospect. The Contender Series near-miss. The hardy veteran.
Now, with the PFL, he’s a marked man.
At the league’s season premiere card in April, Loughnane was the only featherweight to score a finish, putting Sheymon Moraes away with strikes inside of one round to earn six points and vault himself to the top of the PFL standings. Should he defeat Tyler Diamond at PFL 4 on Thursday, he’ll lock himself into a playoff spot and remain in contention for a league championship and a $1,000,000 prize.
