In 2025, the Professional Fighters League (PFL) will introduce a single elimination tournament format, moving away from the traditional season structure. This change, highlighted by analyst Jonathan Coachman, aims to spotlight fighters' performances more effectively, allowing those who excel to rise to prominence. Along with returning middleweights and debuting bantamweights, the organization will enhance production quality and offer more engaging content, such as pre-fight and post-fight shows. Coachman urges fighters to be proactive in promoting themselves and emphasizes the importance of creating an entertaining brand for future success.
I think we have a real opportunity with how the world of MMA is right now to pivot, change, and fix some of the mistakes that we made in the past.
You're gonna see a lot of shoulder programming that we've never done before: Pre-Fight shows, Post-Fight press conferences. Lean into the fighters.
