Clay Collard has been a fan favorite in the PFL, always looking to put on an entertaining performance, though also someone who is, as they say, “always a bridesmaid, never a bride.” Collard, who is also a pro boxer and is known for his heavy striking, has scored noteworthy wins over the likes of Anthony Pettis, Shane Burgos, Jeremy Stephens & Patricky Pitbull. Collard also made the playoffs in three of four PFL seasons but fell short of the championship each time, including his 2023 Lightweight World Championship loss to Olivier Aubin-Mercier and, most recently, his 2024 Semifinal loss to Brent Primus.

 

A former kickboxing world champion, Alfie Davis has been known for his flashy striking and expert-level distance control. Davis enters tonight 17-5-1, which has included eight finishes and an 8-1-1 record in Bellator. Davis made his PFL debut at the 2024 World Championship card in November, losing to Mansour Barnaoui.
