The Professional Fighters League (PFL) held its event in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with a compelling card headlined by the highly anticipated return of Logan Storley, a former interim Bellator welterweight champion.
The event, taking place at the Sanford Pentagon, saw Storley compete in the main event against Florim Zendeli. Following a decision loss to Thad Jean in the PFL World Tournament last year, Storley aimed to get back on the winning track in his home state. However, his opponent, Zendeli, an undefeated standout from North Macedonia, presented a significant challenge, having never been defeated within the Smart Cage.
The card also featured the comeback of Taila Santos, a former UFC title challenger, who continued her ascent in the PFL ranks. She faced Road to UFC veteran Qihui Yan. In the co-main event, Alex Chizov, the 2025 PFL Europe lightweight tournament winner, battled Gadzhi Rabadanov.
