But here at MMA Junkie, we’ve got your back.
Each week, we’ll compile all the newly surfaced fights in one spot. Every Monday, expect a feature listing everything you might have missed from the UFC and PFL.
Here are the fight announcements that were broken or confirmed by MMA Junkie or officially announced by the promotions from May 26-June 1.
