Professional Fighters League has partnered with SRJ Sports Investments for an investment agreement that will assist with the organization’s goals of global expansion.

According to a release, SRJ has acquired a minority stake in PFL and will become an investor in a new regional league set to launch in 2024 — called PFL MENA (Middle East and North Africa). SRJ will also support the PFL’s expansion in the Middle East and collaborate with the league to host PFL pay-per-view events in Saudi Arabia.

“PFL’s mission is to become the global co-leader in MMA with our fighter-first mission and disruptive sport-season format,” said PFL Founder and Chairman Donn Davis. “This investment by SRJ continues the monumental growth that PFL has experienced throughout the world, and there is no better partner in global sports than SRJ.”

PFL MENA is part of the organization’s long-term plan to launch six global leagues by 2026. The first of those, PFL Europe, debuted this year, and is set to hold its inaugural championship card on Dec. 8. PFL MENA, meawhile, will launch in the second quarter of 2024 with a four-event schedule expected to be announced this fall.
