PFL Battle of the Giants and UFC Vegas 99: Francis Ngannou vs Renan Ferreira


 

The PFL will host Battle of the Giants, probably the most significant event in the organization's history, between the UFC and PFL on Saturday. The main attraction will be Francis Ngannou's MMA comeback against fellow knockout artist Renan Ferreira. The UFC is adding Anthony Hernandez and Michel Pereira to the middleweight division main event, which should be exciting, even if the stakes are undoubtedly bigger in Saudi Arabia.

Before the doubleheader on Saturday, Jed Meshew and Mike Heck of MMA Fighting give a preview of both bouts and talk about the important issues surrounding Ngannou vs. Ferreira, Cris Cyborg taking on Larissa Pacheco, Johnny Eblen vs. Fabian Edwards 2, and A.J. McKee vs. Paul Hughes. They'll also talk about the Hernandez vs. Pereira five-round fight at the APEX, the co-main event with Kyler Phillips, the much favored fighter, going up against Rob Font, the perennially rated bantamweight, and much more.


Watch the preview show for PFL: Battle of the Giants and UFC Vegas 99 above. The broadcast is available as an audio-only download here, on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and wherever you find podcasts.


Ngannou and Ferreira will begin their ring walks for the main fight at 11pm (20:00 GMT).


The fight will be held at Mayadeen, an events venue in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
