What is the prize money for the MMA PFL?

The rules of the new PFL Europe are simple – win and advance, lose and go home.

After four events, four champions will be crowned and all winners will take home a sum of £80,700 ($100,000).

And the winners also have the chance to claim the jackpot $1millon cash prize.

PFL CEO Peter Murray gave SunSport inside information as to why he has launched this new MMA international league.

Murray told SunSport: “We’re launching the first international league in Europe because it’s the No1 growth market.

“There’s more demand for quality MMA in Europe than any part of the world and the talent in Europe is very advanced.

“There’s top fighters who do not have a proper home, who do not have the support to help develop their career.

“So we’re creating that system and it’s exciting for fans.”
