After lighting up Cape Town, PFL is back in South Africa — and this time, it’s Johannesburg’s turn to feel the fire. PFL Africa touches down on August 9 at the Big Top Arena in Carnival City, and the energy around this one is real.
This marks the second stop in PFL’s push to crown the first-ever PFL Africa Champions. Tickets drop June 12 on TicketPro, and if Cape Town was any clue, you’ll want to move fast — that place was packed.
The main event’s a featherweight banger: Nigeria’s Patrick Ocheme (6–1) meets Guinea’s Mohamed Camara (5–2–1) in a matchup that has fight-of-the-night written all over it. Both guys bring knockout power and serious pride — this one’s personal.
Then it’s Angola vs. Gambia in the co-main, as Shido Boris Esperanca returns to the SmartCage after a statement debut. He’s got veteran finisher Ibrahim Mané across from him, and the welterweight bracket could shift big depending on how this goes.
In total, 32 fighters from 15 African nations are throwing down this season across four divisions — a massive step for the continent. PFL Africa isn’t just growing the sport — it’s owning the moment.
Tune in August 9 and see why this isn’t just another regional show. This is Africa’s future — and it hits hard.
