When a young Brendan Loughnane stepped in as a substitute to take part in “The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes,” the UFC was pretty much the only show in town for fighters wanting to make it big in the U.S. But the landscape today is markedly different. Fighters have options, and Loughnane (17-3) is taking one of them in a bid to bring his career to new heights. Following his now-infamous Dana White’s Contender Series snub , Loughnane fielded a host of offers and assessed his situation before finally deciding to sign with the PFL. And, chatting to MMA Junkie shortly after his signing had been officially confirmed, the Manchester man said he was both delighted and excited to kick off the latest new chapter in his fighting career.
