Sergio Pettis VS Mitchell McKee

The highly anticipated bantamweight main event saw undefeated newcomer Mitchell McKee pull off a massive victory against former Bellator champion Sergio Pettis. McKee, a Kill Cliff FC standout with a strong wrestling pedigree, dictated the terms of the fight early on. In the opening round, McKee relied on his wrestling to drag Pettis to the canvas, eventually taking his back and raining down heavy ground-and-pound. The second round followed a similar script; while Pettis demonstrated great dexterity and submission defense off his back, he was unable to mount any significant offense of his own. In the final round, McKee completely overwhelmed the #1-ranked bantamweight, flattening Pettis out belly-down and unloading a relentless barrage of lefts and rights. Pettis showed immense toughness to survive to the final bell, but McKee's grappling dominance earned him a clear unanimous decision victory.

Pettis is a former Bellator champion who has shown elite striking and wrestling, most recently rebounding with a KO win over Magomedov in 2025 after a loss to Horiguchi in 2024. McKee arrives unbeaten from LFA (6‑0) with a 60 % finish rate and a mix of decisions and a KO, making his first PFL appearance a test of his step‑up in competition.
