The Professional Fighters League will kick off its PFL Europe 2025 season this weekend with four lightweight quarterfinals and a homecoming fight for Irelandβs Paul Hughes.
The PFL Europe 1 main event will see Hughes (13-2) go up against Bruno Miranda. Both men successfully came in under the lightweight limit for the headlining bout. All eight of the lightweight tournament fighters also made weight. The middleweight scrap between Haider Khan (194.1) and Sean McCormac (188) changed to a catchweight contest at 195 pounds, and the heavier Khan was fined 20% of his purse by hitting the scales eight pounds over the 186-pound limit. The match will otherwise continue.
βBig Newsβ is a heavy favorite in the main event and is coming off a majority decision defeat to Usman Nurmagomedov. Many fans thought Hughes did enough to deserve the lightweight title, and heβll get a chance to rebound here. Meanwhile, Miranda (17-5) will look to play spoiler and is coming off a split decision win over Patricky Freire. The Brazilian had previously lost back-to-back fights against Brent Primus and Olivier Aubin-Mercier.
PFL Europe 1 will air live on Dazn at noon ET/9 a.m. PT on Saturday.
