The Professional Fighters League (PFL) is back in South Africa for the second installment of PFL Africa, showcasing the continent’s top MMA talent in a high-stakes night of combat sports. On Saturday, 9 August 2025, the Big Top Arena at Carnival City becomes the battleground for the Welterweight and Featherweight quarterfinals of the inaugural PFL Africa tournament.
Thirty-two elite fighters from 15 African nations step into the iconic SmartCage, each with a single goal: to advance to the semifinals and inch closer to the title of PFL Africa Champion.
The main event features a fiery Featherweight clash between Nigeria’s Patrick Ocheme (6-1) and Guinea’s Mohamed Camara (5-2-1)—two of West Africa’s brightest rising stars in a bout that promises fireworks. In the co-main event, Angola’s Shido Boris Esperanca (9-1) looks to build on his explosive debut win as he faces off against Gambia’s veteran Ibrahima Mané (14-5) in a high-stakes Welterweight duel.
PFL details and tickets are available online through TicketPro.
