New Chapter for PFL Super Fights Winners
The PFL Super Fights: Battle of the Giants in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was a night to remember, with three title fights that left fans on the edge of their seats. Johnny Eblen successfully defended his Bellator middleweight championship against Fabian Edwards, while PFL newcomers Francis Ngannou and Cris Cyborg won their respective Super Fights belts. As the dust settles, we explore what’s next for these three winners.
Ngannou’s Next Move
Francis Ngannou’s impressive first-round knockout of Renan Ferreira has left many wondering what’s next for the Cameroonian fighter. Despite taking the fight just months after the loss of his son, Ngannou proved once again why he’s considered one of the greatest heavyweight fighters of all time. With his win, Ngannou may have found a new home in Saudi Arabia, where he’s fought his last three bouts. Brett Okamoto predicts that Ngannou’s next fight will be in a boxing ring, but only time will tell.
Cyborg-Pacheco Rivalry Heats Up
Cris Cyborg’s unanimous decision win over Larissa Pacheco was a testament to her skill and experience. The 39-year-old Brazilian fighter proved that she’s still one of the best in the women’s featherweight division. However, the competitive nature of the fight has set the stage for a thrilling rematch. Andreas Hale believes that a rivalry between Cyborg and Pacheco would be a game-changer for the PFL, bringing much-needed excitement to the women’s MMA scene.
Eblen’s Uncertain Future
Johnny Eblen’s win over Fabian Edwards has left him in a precarious position. With no clear-cut challenger in sight, Eblen’s future in the Bellator middleweight division is uncertain. Jeff Wagenheim wonders if it’s time for Eblen to consider a move to the UFC, where he could face new challenges and prove himself against the best in the world.
What’s Next?
As the PFL Super Fights winners bask in the glory of their victories, the question on everyone’s mind is: what’s next? Will Ngannou continue to dominate in the heavyweight division? Can Cyborg and Pacheco create a rivalry that will elevate the women’s MMA scene? And what’s in store for Eblen, the champion without a clear-cut challenger? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the world of MMA is in for a wild ride.
