Sean O’Connell featured in new episode of PFL’s ‘Run it Back’ series

Mixed martial arts action is on hiatus during the coronavirus pandemic, but the PFL will help fill the void with its “Run it Back” series.

“Run it Back” features PFL fighters looking back on their million-dollar championship victories. The third episode – which streams live Thursday night at 8 p.m. ET on the promotion’s YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram channels – will feature reigning 2018 light heavyweight champ Sean O'Connell.

This week’s episode features Sean O’Connell reliving his 2018 PFL heavyweight championship win over Vinny Magalhaes by third-round TKO. The PFL play-by-play announcer will be joined by MMA legend, Jeremy Horn, to break down the fight from their perspective, providing unfiltered commentary on the biggest win of O’Connell’s MMA career and his decision to retire on top.

New episodes of “Run it Back” will air each Thursday through May 11. Future featured fighters still to come are Emiliano Sordi (April 23), David Michaud (April 30), Natan Schulte (May 7) and Lance Palmer (May 14).

You can watch a teaser clip from O’Connell’s episode in the video above.
