The Professional Fighters League is making its return to Chicago at the Wintrust Arena on Saturday, April 11.
In the main event, former Bellator Bantamweight Champion Sergio Pettis (25-7) meets undefeated rising contender Mitch McKee (10-0) in a pivotal 135-pound showdown.

Former champion Sergio “The Phenom” Pettis returns to Wintrust Arena following a Knockout of the Year performance in his last outing against Magomed Magomedov in October. The Milwaukee native looks to deliver another statement performance, with a victory in the Windy City potentially propelling him back into title contention.
“Merciless” Mitch McKee makes his PFL debut after earning a second-round TKO victory in his most recent bout in LFA. With a perfect 10-0 record, McKee aims to make an immediate impact in Chicago and put the bantamweight division on notice against one of the sport’s most seasoned 135-pound competitors.
Newman, a three-time NCAA Division III All-American wrestler, looks to preserve his perfect record against one of the division’s most accomplished finishers. Silveira, a former LFA Light Heavyweight and Middleweight Champion with an impressive 80% finish rate, aims to extend his momentum in a high-stakes matchup at 185 pounds.
