Professional Fighters League (PFL) recently finalized its ESPN2 and ESPN+ lineup for the upcoming PFL 6 mixed martial arts (MMA) event, which takes place on June 25, 2021 from inside Ocean Resort Casino in Atlantic City, NJ.

After missing PFL 4 due to illness, former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis (24-11) — who dropped a decision loss to Clay Collard in his PFL debut — will look to stay alive in the 2021 tournament against Raush Manfio.

The 12-3 Brazilian is coming off a win over Joilton Lutterbach at PFL 1.

The last man to win the PFL heavyweight trophy, Ali Isaev, has not been medially cleared to compete on June 25. Coupled with his absence from PFL 3, the undefeated Russian will be eliminated from this year’s tournament.
