PFL announces lightweight, featherweight rosters for 2021 season

After a one-season hiatus, PFL is gearing up to relaunch in 2021 – and the majority of the lightweight and featherweight rosters are already figured out.

On Tuesday, the promotion officially announced 10 lightweights and eight featherweights who will be partaking in the upcoming season, which kicks off April 23 at a venue and location to be announced later.

Of the 18 fighters announced, nine are former UFC fighters, including former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis who will be returning to lightweight after recent welterweight bouts in the UFC.

2019 PFL lightweight champion Natan Schulte and 2019 PFL featherweight champion Lance Palmer will both attempt to three-peat by winning their third consecutive PFL championship.

Check out the full lightweight and featherweight rosters below:
