It’s time for a brand-new season of the Professional Fighters League. It kicks off with PFL 1 on Saturday, April 1, 2023, at The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada. The event is headlined by the Brendan Loughnane vs. Marlon Moraes featherweight fight.

Before Betting on Brendan Loughnane vs. Marlon Moraes

Brendan Loughnane is the reigning PFL Featherweight champion who won the 2022 tournament (as well as a $1 million prize). The English fighter is a great striker who likes finishing his opponents by a knockout, a fact that needs to worry Marlon Moraes and his team.

The thing is that the former UFC challenger is 0-5 in his last five bouts, losing each time by KO/TKO. However, there’s a caveat – those losses happened against some real legends of the sport.

At the age of 34, Marlon Moraes probably won’t be able to resurrect his career and become a champ. However, we doubt he’s gonna turn into a journeyman that gets beaten by everyone. Sure, his confidence might be very low, but he’s got the skillset needed to beat Loughane.

As you can see from the PFL 1 odds, Loughnane is a huge favorite to win Saturday’s fight. We understand what that’s the case. After all, this seems like a perfect matchup for him. However, if there’s a fighter who can upset the odds, it’s Moraes.

Pick: Marlon Moraes to win
