It was just about one year ago when PFL announced the acquisition of Bellator, in its entirety. This was supposed to be a big coup for PFL and its intentions of challenging or at least pretending to confront the UFC in the sport.
It was quite clear that they aren’t just here to achieve that universal acclaim of No. 2 in the game.
But a year on from that moment, it is quite visible the company has fallen short on almost all the metrics that it hoped to thrive upon. Unhappy fighters, contract issues, cagey lawsuits, and a fledgling business model that has failed to generate buzz among the hardcore, let alone the casual, fans.
What once felt like a really strong alternative to UFC is now canceling big-ticket shows. This has led many pundits and media members to ridicule the organization. A make-or-break 2025 begins to really take hold for them.
So, let’s check in with what’s going on in the world of PFL-Bellator. Why are they struggling? And are they heading for the bust?
