The Skilled Fighters League (PFL) might be taking the SmartCage to Nashville, Kansas, and Chicago for this 12 months’s World Match semifinal occasions.
PFL might be shaking issues up this 12 months after a 2024 that was marred by fighter complaints and a largely unsuccessful merger with the Bellator MMA roster. Over a 12 months on from the acquisition, the promotion has determined to remove the Bellator model shifting ahead.
And that’s not the one change in technique in 2025. The PFL may also be abandoning its season and playoff format after many had questioned its sustainability. As a substitute, Grand Prix-style tournaments will happen throughout eight divisions, with $500,000 prize cash going to every winner.
The promotion has accomplished its roll-out of the roster lists for every event, that includes the likes of Taila Santos, Jason Jackson, Movlid Khaybulaev, Liz Carmouche, Fabian Edwards, Jake Hadley, and Alexandr Romanov.
These names will start their campaigns with first-round bouts throughout 4 occasions on the backlot of Common Studios Florida in Orlando, Florida on April 3, April 11, April 18, and Could 1. And the dates and areas for the next semifinal playing cards in the summertime have now been confirmed.
On Thursday, June 12, 2025 PFL World Match 5: Semifinals will happen on the Nashville Municipal Auditorium, with tickets starting from $35 to $300.
Eight days later, the promotion makes its debut in ‘Cowtown’ with the 2025 PFL World Match 6: Semifinals at INTRUST Financial institution Enviornment in Wichita, Kansas. Tickets vary from $40 to $250.
The final semifinal occasion is scheduled for June 27 and might be held at Wintrust Enviornment in Chicago, with ticket costs starting from $50 to $350.
