Sadibou Sy wants to face Impa Kasanganay out of his admiration and respect for his fellow fighter.

Sy (17-8) and Kasanganay (18-5) will compete in the light heavyweight bracket as the PFL kicks of its 2025 campaign on April 18 in Florida.

Sy wants to fight Kasanganay in the finals as he really the likes the former light heavyweight champ and his family. However, “The Swedish Denzel” vows to show no mercy once the cage door closes on them.

“Impa [Kasanganay] because I really like Impa,” Sy told Home of Fight. “Whenever I meet his family, his mom and dad, they’re great people. Just because both of need to win two fights to get there and I always want to wish him all the best… We’re going to fight, as soon as the cage door closes, we’re going to fight. So I don’t have to hate you to be able to [fight you].”

Kasanganay won the PFL light heavyweight tournament in 2023, beating Joshua Silveira in the finals. “Tshilobo” also made it to the finals last year, where he fell prey to first round knockout against Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov.

Meanwhile, Sy won the PFL welterweight tournament in 2022. While he made it to the finals in 2023, he suffered a submission loss against Magomed Magomedkerimov. Sy moved up to light heavyweight for last year’s season and did not advance to the playoffs. Sy will kick off this season against Dalton Rosta (9-1) on April 18 at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.Impa Kasanganay vs Fabian Edwards Mike Shipman vs Joshua Silveira Aaron Jeffery vs Murad Ramazanov Alexandr Shabliy vs Brent Primus Clay Collard vs Alfie Davis Gadzhi Rabadanov vs Marc Diakiese Jay-Jay Wilson vs Mads Burnell Khalid Murtazaliev vs Jordan Newman Sergio Cossio vs Robert Watley
