​The Professional Fighters League is coming to Europe, with the tournament-style MMA promotion launching an exciting European season. 

PFL head to the UK with back-to-back shows in Cardiff and London scheduled on August 13 and August 20. 

Top talents Rory MacDonald and Kayla Harrison will feature in the respective main-event bouts ahead of the promotion's latest expansion move.

The new league will be separate to the main league that PFL runs each year and new titles will be up for grabs.

The European series that launches in 2023 will feature budding stars who will compete for the chance to earn a spot on the main roster.  

The UK shows next month will include ​qualifying fights for the new European league next year.
