With the Professional Fighters League regular season winding down, points are of the utmost importance for those who want to make their respective $1 million playoffs. For lightweight Jason High, he’ll get the chance to rebound from a controversial loss by taking on Natan Schulte in Thursday’s PFL 5 main event on Long Island, New York. High is replacing Brian Foster, who is unable to compete on this card.
A PFL official today told MMAjunkie the promotion could not comment on the reason for Foster’s removal from the lineup. But Foster’s manager told MMAjunkie an illness will keep him from competing, and he hopes Foster will be able to find a home on PFL 6 or PFL 7 in August, both of which take place in Atlantic City, N.
