Four fighters will face off in the semi finals and final of a one night tournament. The qualifiers will take place in Russia, Germany, Brazil and Australia as well as the UAE.
Peter Murray, CEO of the PFL, is excited to be working with the Abu Dhabi based promotion,
“We look forward to working with UAE Warriors in the Middle East, a region with an affinity for combat sports and an impressive crop of high-caliber fighters. This is a unique challenge, and we’ll see if these athletes have what it takes to fight for the PFL and compete for a title and million-dollar prize.”
