How to Watch PFL 5

Brian KnappJun 16, 2023

Heavyweights, women’s featherweights and the grandson of the great Muhammad Ali will carry the Professional Fighters League torch for PFL 5 on Friday at Overtime Elite Arena in Atlanta. Defending heavyweight champion Ante Delija kicks off his 2023 campaign against Maurice Greene in the main event, while reigning women’s lightweight titleholder Larissa Pacheco continues her pursuit of gold in a second weight class against Amber Leibrock in the three-round co-headliner at 145 pounds.

PFL 5 “Delija vs. Greene”—which airs live on ESPN and streams to ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT—also features an amateur lightweight tilt matching Biaggio Ali Walsh with Travell Miller, a heavyweight clash pitting Renan Ferreira against Matheus Scheffel and a women’s featherweight confrontation pairing Aspen Ladd with Karolina Sobek. Preliminary festivities stream to ESPN+ at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 p.m. PT, as a heavyweight showdown between Denis Goltsov and Yorgan De Castro anchors the multi-fight undercard.
