The UFC may have a virtual monopoly on the elite level of MMA, but it’s not a total one. Their top competitor, the PFL, is up and running again for another season of action, with a single elimination tournament setup for this year. For my SGPN Parlay for Friday (April 11th): PFL Parlay, I’ve parlayed my favorite men’s bantamweight and women’s flyweight plays for Week 2 action. Let’s get it on, c’mon!
SGPN Parlay for Friday (April 11th): PFL Parlay
2025 PFL First Round: Bantamweights & Women’s Flyweights
Start Time: 9:00 PM EST (ESPN2/ESPN+)
The second week of first-round action brings us men’s 135-pounders and women’s 125-pounders. And, since I’m a gentleman, we’ll go with my women’s pick first, Jena Bishop.
The American faces Japan’s Kana Watanabe in opening round action tomorrow night, putting her high-level grappling up against Watanabe’s high-level judo. And I like the grappling to prevail. Bishop wins a ground battle.
For my men’s pick, I’m going with England’s Jake Hadley. The former UFC fighter is bigger, younger, and has better high-level experience than his opponent, Matheus Mattos, plus Mattos is stepping into this spot on short notice, which is never conducive to winning a fight. Hadley never really lived up to his potential during his UFC run – let’s see if he can fare better in the PFL cage.
Best Bet Parlay: Jake Hadley ML + Jena Bishop ML (+192)
Overall Record: 78-179 (30%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($1,733.00)
Return on Investment: -7%
