Shane Burgos is no longer a UFC fighter. Burgos, a fan favorite featherweight, said Monday that he is signing with the PFL after fighting out his contract with the UFC last month. “I went out there, I tested the free agency market, and I’m excited to announce that I’m signing with the PFL,” Burgos said on “ The MMA Hour.” “It was not an easy decision. It was an offer I couldn’t turn it (down). I have two daughters at home, and I have to look at them in the face and say it was worth it when it’s all said and done in the sport. With this deal, I think that will secure that.” Burgos added that his new contract with PFL hasn’t been officially signed by him but that “it’s basically a done deal.” He said the UFC didn’t try to match what the PFL offered him
