PFL Africa to crown 3 champions in Kigali

PFL Africa will hold the finals of its 2026 season on Saturday, December 12, in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda. The bouts will take place at BK Arena, and the event is supported by fight week activities running for a week in Kigali.

The final card features title fights in three divisions. In welterweight, Angola's Shido Esperança will face Nigeria's David Samuel. Samuel stands out with a 7-0 winning record. In lightweight, Nigeria's Patrick Ocheme and Senegal's Demba Seck will meet, and in bantamweight, Liberia's Dwight Joseph and Nigeria's Raphael Uchegbu will share the cage.

The organization announced that the winner of each division will receive a $100,000 prize. This figure is seen as a notable financial commitment for mixed martial arts organizations based in Africa.

Tickets are on sale through TiCQet. The event is viewed as an important development that shows the growing interest in MMA across Africa.
