“Skilled Fighters League and Patchy Combine have mutually agreed to not lengthen his contract. We each determined that is the very best plan of action for PFL and him. Patchy is a incredible fighter, and we want him properly. PFL is worked up to crown our subsequent 135lbs champion within the PFL world event,” the assertion learn.
Combine had been campaigning for his launch as he was pissed off with the shortage of fights, and the PFL has now granted that. It’s unclear if Combine might be a free agent efficient instantly or when he really will have the ability to signal with any promotion.
However, the hope for a lot of followers is that Patchy Combine will signal with the UFC and add one other contender to the already stacked division.
