Dana White encouraged promoters to pick up Brendan Loughnane after he decided to pass up on signing Loughnane, and the Professional Fighters League took him up on that offer. White declined to sign Loughnane following what he deemed to be an ill-advised takedown attempt in the winding seconds of Loughnane’s bout on the season premiere of Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series. Naturally, Loughnane was devastated by White’s decision, but he has now moved on to sign with the PFL. The decision came down to the perfect balance between competition and finance:
“I had a bit of time off to let the dust settle with everything that went on (after the Contender Series),” Loughnane told MMA Junkie. “PFL offered probably the highest level of competition and also really good money. I’m their only English fighter and they were like, ‘Look, we’ll really get behind you. We’ll push you in that market.’
