The Professional Fighters League will stage PFL 3 this Friday at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, where top competitors in the welterweight and featherweight divisions are set to do battle. Former Bellator MMA welterweight champion Andrey Koreshkov takes on the undefeated Magomed Umalatov in the main event.
The co-headliner pits Brendan Loughnane against Pedro Carvalho at 145 pounds. Loughane was riding the wave of a solid winning streak before suffering a knockout loss to Jesus Pinedo in his most recent assignment. Standing across the cage against him will be Carvalho—a fighter on a two-fight losing skid who relishes stiff competition.
PFL 3 streams live to ESPN2 and ESPN+ and will be accessible via DAZN in Canada and Europe at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT. A closer look at the particulars:
