In the 2nd half of last year, there were rumblings going on about PFL potentially acquiring Bellator and thus creating a legitimate powerhouse that could possibly rival the power and influence of the UFC. On November 20th, it was official.
A project that sees PFL now having the same amount of top ranked fighters in the world, as the premier MMA organization – UFC. This was according to Donn Davis, the founder and chairman of PFL.
We were all wondering if there is truly a possibility for any promotion to go up against the UFC, which has been the absolute standard in the world of mixed martial arts, for years and years.
