The Milwaukee native looks to deliver another statement performance, with a victory in the Windy City potentially propelling him back into title contention.
“Merciless” Mitch McKee makes his PFL debut after earning a second-round TKO victory in his most recent bout in LFA. With a perfect 10-0 record, McKee aims to make an immediate impact in Chicago and put the bantamweight division on notice against one of the sport’s most seasoned 135-pound competitors.
Newman, a three-time NCAA Division III All-American wrestler, looks to preserve his perfect record against one of the division’s most accomplished finishers. Silveira, a former LFA Light Heavyweight and Middleweight Champion with an impressive 80% finish rate, aims to extend his momentum in a high-stakes matchup at 185 pounds.
