PFL lightweight sensation Kayla Harrison will look to extend her unbeaten streak while also continuing her quest to repeat as tournament champion when she collides with UFC and Bellator MMA veteran Cindy Dandois atop the PFL 6 event on June 25 in Atlantic City, NJ.
The main card will air on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes.
Harrison (9-0) continued her division dominance with a first-round shellacking of Mariana Morais at PFL 3 back on May 6 in “The Garden State.” That’s the same event where Dandois (16-6) came up short on the judges’ scorecards against fellow veteran Kaitlin Young.
“Battlecat” is facing tournament elimination.
Also returning to action on June 25 are heavyweight hurters Fabricio Werdum and Renan Ferreira following last month’s questionable no contest. Werdum (24-9-1, 1 NC) collides with Brandon Sayles (6-1), fresh off his upset over Mohammed Usman, while Ferreira (6-2, 1 NC) takes on the undefeated Ali Isaev (9-0).

“There were a lot of exciting knockouts that took place during PFL 3 for the heavyweight and women’s lightweight divisions and as the Regular Season concludes, all these fighters will be looking for an early stoppage to secure their spots in the playoffs,” said PFL President of Fighter Operations, Ray Sefo. “Many of our world class athletes can still qualify for the PFL playoffs but just about all of they are facing a win or go home scenario.”
