“Self referred to as co-leader in MMA and fighters first group is reducing a bunch of fighters and forcing others to take pay cuts of as much as 70%.
No respect for fighter contracts and what they’ve completed.”
“The self-called fighters first organization is also changing it contracts so it’s almost impossible for fighters to be free agents and to leave on free agency. Also tying down fighters payments for many years and taking away all their leverage.”
“The self-called co-leader in MMA is ghosting some fighters/managers and leaving them with no answers while the owner makes silly and disrespectful posts on social media.”
Patricio Pitbull (36-7) has been one of many loudest voices coming from the previous Bellator MMA roster going after PFL co-founder Donn Davis. Ever for the reason that buy of Bellator by PFL in late 2023 there have been quite a few ‘growing pains’ by way of merging the businesses.
Add on high of all {that a} transient but very public spat began by Davis at UFC CEO Dana White that didn’t go nicely for the PFL co-founder.
Pitbull reached out to 1 member of the manager wing of PFL in heavyweight Francis Ngannou.

I’m considering it’s time we begin a PFL Fighters Union. What do you suppose?”
The thought of a fighter union has been explored for years with little or no success. It didn’t appear mandatory within the PFL which has touted itself as a fighter’s first promotion, however now it appears as if at the least one fighter is trying to push the thought additional.
Neither Davis nor Ngannou have responded publicly to Patricio Pitbull’s claims on-line.
