In a major move following PFL’s acquisition of Bellator, the promotion is eyeing a matchup between Cris Cyborg and Larissa Pacheco.
The event would feature a potential Bellator champion vs. PFL champion matchup, aligning with a theme the promotion aims to establish in early 2024. However, this decision would exclude former two-time PFL champion Kayla Harrison from the equation, sidelining one of women’s MMA’s most anticipated fights.
Harrison and Cyborg have exchanged words in recent years about making their fight happen. With both fighters now under the same promotional umbrella, the opportunity to arrange the fight appears more feasible. However, it seems that the PFL is leaning towards Pacheco facing Cyborg next instead.
Is this the right move? Should PFL prioritize a Harrison vs. Cyborg fight over the current champion vs. champion theme?
Our panelists Mike Bohn, Danny Segura, and Brian Garcia, along with host George Garcia, discuss how this potential matchup should unfold in the latest episode of “Spinning Back Clique.”
