Steven Ray could use some black ink on his ledger.

The two-time Cage Warriors Fighting Championship titleholder will return to the Professional Fighters League stage for the first time in more than a year when he locks horns with Lewis Long in the PFL Europe 3 headliner on Saturday at the OVO Hyrdro in Glasgow, Scotland. Ray enters the cage on a career-worst three-fight losing streak. He has not suited up since he succumbed to second-round punches from Clay Collard at PFL 6 on June 23, 2023. Long, meanwhile, steps into his promotional debut with some decent momentum. The Mat Academy-trained Welshman has won eight of his past 11 bouts.
