How to Watch 2023 PFL 2

The Professional Fighters League will shift its attention to the women’s featherweight and men’s heavyweight divisions when PFL 2 goes down on Friday inside The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas. Reigning women’s lightweight champion Larissa Pacheco begins her quest for a title in a second weight class in the main event, where she toes the line against Julia Budd at 145 pounds.

PFL 2 “Pacheco vs. Budd”—which airs live on ESPN2 and streams to ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT—also features a heavyweight co-headliner matching Bruno Cappelozza with Matheus Scheffel, a women’s featherweight affair pitting Olena Kolesnyk against Aspen Ladd and a heavyweight tilt pairing Renan Ferreira with Rizvan Kuniev. The seven-fight undercard streams in its entirety to ESPN+ at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 p.m. PT, an amateur lightweight clash between Biaggio Ali Walsh—grandson of the late Muhammad Ali—and Isaiah Figueroa highlighting the preliminary festivities.
