PFL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2022: Brendan Loughnane vs Bubba Jenkins: UK start time, how to watch, full card

After a life’s worth of work, Brendan Loughnane will fight Bubba Jenkins for the PFL featherweight title, and we’ve got the UK start time and all the details you need to ensure you don’t miss a second of the action.

Back in 2019, the Manchester fighter looked certain to get another shot in the UFC after dismantling Bill Algeo in Dana White’s Contender Series. However, in an extremely controversial call, the company president decided against giving him a contract. Consequently, the 145-pounder had to find a new path to the top, and he found it when PFL came calling.

The Brit quickly signed up for their championship tournament with a whopping $1 million on the line. However, despite looking impressive in the early stages of the competition, he eventually fell foul to the supreme grappling of Movlid Khaybulaev. But with Loughnane certainly being no stranger to adversity, he got right back on the horse.

He entered the next edition of the tournament, and this time he’s made it all the way to the final. The 32-year-old looked sensational in his semi-final encounter against, Chris Wade, and now he’s ready to go all the way.

On November 25, at the Hulu Theatre in Madison Square Garden, New York, the Brit will put it all on the line. But the man standing in front of him, presents an extremely difficult challenge, making this a fight the fans can’t afford to miss.
