PFL Africa continues to add some of the promotion's biggest names.
Former Bellator champion A.J. McKee (22-2) returns to featherweight to take on Akhmed Magomedov (11-1) July 19 at GrandWest Arena in Cape Town, promotion officials announced Friday morning. McKee is coming off a split decision loss to Paul Hughes this past October at PFL Super Fights: Battle of the Giants. Meanwhile, Magomedov has won five of his past six fights, most recently submitting Nathan Kelly in January.
Also joining the lineup is a heavyweight matchup between Corey Anderson (18-6-1) and Denis Goltsov (36-8). Anderson hasn't competed since claiming the vacant Bellator light heavyweight title with a win over Karl Moore in March 2024. 2024 PFL heavyweight tournament winner Goltsov will look to make it five straight victories. He has finished his past seven wins.
