PFL 1: Full card, start time and where to watch as 2024 regular season kicks off with heavyweights

San Antonio’s Boeing Center will play host to the opening night of the 2024 PFL regular season as the company looks forward to a new era.

Following their takeover of Bellator, the PFL have been able to stack this year’s tournament with world-class talent.

Thursday’s main event, for instance, sees former PFL champion Ante Delija take on former interim Bellator heavyweight champion Valentin Moldavsky.

Delija arrives with a five-fight winning run under his belt while Moldavsky boasts seven wins from his 10 fights with Bellator.

In the co-main event, last year’s PFL finalist Denis Goltsov goes head-to-head with Bellator veteran Linton Vassell.

Goltsov has been with the PFL since 2019 but is yet to get his hands on the $1m cheque. Vassell, on the other hand, is on an incredible five-fight win streak and has a history of big performances with Bellator.

The women’s flyweight tournament also gets underway on Thursday night with more exciting names on the card.

PFL Europe champion Dakota Ditcheva is one of them as she looks to make a statement on the global roster against Lisa Mauldin.

Ex UFC and Bellator star Liz Carmouche is also in action as she takes on Juliana Velasquez in a trilogy fight.

Fans over in the United Kingdom can catch Thursday’s event live on DAZN. Over in the United States, ESPN+ will broadcast the show. The card begins at 6:30pm ET (11.30pm BST).
