Ex-Bellator lightweight champ Brent Primus eyeing statement with title for PFL

Ex-Bellator lightweight champ Brent Primus eyeing statement with title for PFL Show Caption Hide Caption Brent Primus, PFL 2025 Week 3 post-fight video interview Brent Primus met the media after his win over Vinicius Cenci Brent Primus knows what it's like to become an unexpected champion, so winning a PFL title would be old hat. And it's not even that a lightweight belt in the PFL, like he did in Bellator when he stopped Michael Chandler, would be out of the question now for Primus (16-4), who beat Vinicius Cenci (8-3) with a third-round submission this past Friday. He moved on to a semifinal matchup against Alfie Davis in late June. Still, he's been overlooked before only to prove doubters wrong, and he'd gladly do it again. Primus spoke to the media following his win at 2025 PFL World Tournament 3, which took place at Universal Studios in Orlando, Fla. Watch Primus' full post-fight interview in the video above courtesy of the PFL.

2025 PFL 3 video: Brent Primus hits buzzer-beater vs. Vinicius Cenci

2025 PFL 3 video: Brent Primus hits buzzer-beater vs. Vinicius Cenci Former Bellator lightweight champion Brent Primus could've cruised to a unanimous decision win Friday in Orlando, Fla., but chose to remove the judges from the equation in the final seconds. On the 2025 PFL World Tournament 3 prelims, Primus (16-4) submitted Vinicius Cenci (8-3) with eight seconds left in Round 3 of their quarterfinal matchup. Primus advances to the June 27 semifinal in Chicago against an opponent to be determined later on Friday. The win bounced him back from a 2024 PFL championship loss to Gadzhi Rabadanov. Cenci comes up short in his major promotion debut. He appeared on Dana White's Contender Series in 2022 and lost to Sam Patterson. Up-to-the-minute 2025 PFL 3 results include:
