In the\u00a0PFL Pittsburgh\u00a0main event, former Bellator Champion\u00a0Johnny \u201cPressure\u201d Eblen\u00a0(16-1) will face\u00a0Bryan \u201cThe Butcher\u201d Battle\u00a0(12-2-1 NC) in his PFL debut.

A 14-fight veteran of the UFC, Ariane Lipski da Silva has competed professionally since 2013. Aptly nicknamed \u201cQueen of Violence,\u201d the Brazilian standout has secured finishes in 10 of her 17 professional victories. She faces Maui\u2019s Sumiko Inaba, a dangerous striker coming off a five-round battle with undefeated Dakota Ditcheva. A former Bellator MMA mainstay, Inaba has a strong finishing instinct and has never been stopped in her two career losses.<\/p>\n
Undefeated to start his professional career, Nashville\u2019s Alexei Pergande looks to keep his momentum rolling against Julio Arce, a 10-fight veteran of the UFC making his PFL debut on March 28. A top prospect at Kill Cliff FC, Pergande is coming off a first-round submission win in August, while Arce enters the PFL cage riding a three-fight winning streak.<\/p>\n
