R-Mac Will Fight With No Regrets, Score Finishes

No fighter is going to sneeze at $1 million, the top prize in the PFL 2021 tournament.

But for Rory MacDonald, no stranger to high-profile fights under the UFC and Bellator MMA banners, his debut for PFL represents more than just the opportunity to line his pockets. “Red King” wants to jumpstart a new era in his combat sports career.

“Even more so than the points, it’s just my own objectives and goals in this sport,” MacDonald said. “Going forward, I feel like this is a new era in my career and I had a lot of time to reflect on how I want to leave my footprint on this sport. I want to go out there and fight with no regrets. I want to finish like I have been known for earlier in my career.”

MacDonald (21-6-1) is coming off a decision loss to Douglas Lima for Bellator MMA, where he compiled a 3-2 mark with one draw. “Red King” is scheduled to fight fellow UFC welterweight veteran Curtis Millender this Thursday night (April 29) in Atlantic City, NJ.
