List of current PFL fighters records current PFL fighters' information, country origins, recent fighter signings and departures, fight schedules and results and the champion of each division. Unlike the UFC, PFL does allow its fighters to compete in other promotions, so many fighters on this list may appear in MMA events outside of PFL.

Background

The Professional Fighters League, formerly known as the World Series of Fighting prior to April 2017, is an American mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion that was started in 2012 and based in Washington, District of Columbia. ^[1] This list is an up-to-date roster of those fighters currently under contract with the PFL brand. Fighters are organized by weight class and within their weight class by their number of fights with the promotion. PFL operated yearly tournaments in 6 divisions; Heavyweight, Light Heavyweight, Welterweight, Lightweight, Featherweight, and Women's Featherweight.^[2]^[3] In July 2022, PFL announced plans for a European league, starting in 2023, called PFL Europe, where the winners would win a spot in the next years main PFL tournament.^[4]

For each season, the PFL roster begins with 72 fighters in six weight classes: five men's weight classes and one women's weight class. PFL additionally signs fighters to development contracts from the PFL Challenger Series. These fighters occasionally appear as alternates in the league season or as showcase fights opening the league events.^[5]

Recent signings

The fighters in this section have either signed with the Bellator, have recently returned from an announced retirement, or have yet to make their Bellator debut.
