Russia’s Evgeniy Goncharov (11-2) has been forced to withdraw from the Professional Fighters League upcoming debut season, and Kelvin Tiller (8-1) has agreed to take his place. PFL officials today told MMAjunkie that with the change, Tiller will now face Alex Nicholson (10-5) at PFL 1, while Goncharov’s original opponent, Josh Copeland (14-4), will instead face Jack May (9-3). PFL 1 takes place June 7 at Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York. Four fights air on NBCSN following eight contests that stream live on Facebook, though the night’s bout order has yet to be officially finalized.
