The Professional Fighters League (PFL) kicks off its first season on Thursday with a fight card that contains a lot of familiar names. The goal of those fighters is to be the last man standing in their weight division at the end of the tournament-based “playoffs.” Their prize for attaining that goal will be $1 million. To reach that goal, fighters must accumulate enough points during the two-fight “regular season” to secure one of the eight playoff spots. From there, it’s single elimination until only one man remains in each of the six different weight divisions. Related PFL tournament leans: Which playoff hopefuls are likely to win $1 million?
