In 2026 PFL absorbed Bellator's champion lineage and, as of July 2026, merged with Jake Paul/Nakisa Bidarian's Most Valuable Promotions, with plans to fold MMA operations into an 'MVP MMA' brand during 2027. Tickets: venue box office and Ticketmaster. Streaming: ESPN (US), regional broadcasters elsewhere.
