Overview
- PFL Madrid takes place Friday, March 20 at Palacio Vistalegre and streams on ESPN+ in the promotion’s first major event in Spain.
- A.J. McKee re-signed with PFL and described the league as his home, saying he prioritizes seven-figure pay and will not take a UFC pay cut.
- Adam Borics has suggested this may be his final year at 145 pounds and is considering a move to lightweight due to the weight cut and added muscle.
- Event coverage indicates the McKee–Borics winner will be fast-tracked toward a shot at the currently vacant PFL featherweight championship.
- Both fighters transitioned from Bellator after PFL’s 2023 acquisition and are ranked inside the promotion’s featherweight top five under its new rankings model.
