PFL 4: Shields vs. Elkin Takes Place Live Tonight On ESPN2
PFL 4 takes place tonight live on ESPN2 from the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey and will be headlined by the much-anticipated debut of undefeated boxing champion Claressa Shields.
After officially making the decision to jump to MMA last November when she signed with The Professional Fighters League (PFL), the world began to wait in curiosity and suspense to see how the Olympian would fare crossing over into a new sport.

Former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis has been pulled from Thursday’s PFL 4 card due to illness, and will now fight at PFL 6 instead.

Stephen Kenny’s reign was heading for a place from which no Irish manager returns until Troy Parrott swooped to rescue, scoring twice shortly after Ireland fell behind to Andorra.
These are black boxes of games: they are usually only heard from if something goes badly wrong – think Liechtenstein, Macedonia, Cyprus – but ultimately this will be largely forgotten, rememb
