PFL Adds Former UFC Fighter Kenny Florian To Broadcast Team

By Fight Sports Mar 23, 2021

Former UFC title challenger Kenny Florian will be entering the PFL booth.

Florian competed in 17 fights under the UFC banner. Only three of his pro MMA bouts were outside of the UFC. He made it to the finals of season one of The Ultimate Fighter and competed for both the UFC Lightweight and Featherweight Titles.

Florian retired in 2012 and became a color commentator and analyst for the UFC. Lately, Florian has been seen on his podcast with UFC play-by-play ace Jon Anik and BattleBots. Now, he can add even more to his stacked resume.

The PFL has announced that Florian will join its commentary team. Florian will join Randy Couture and Sean O’Connell in the booth.

Here is what Florian had to say in the announcement.

“I’m very excited to be a part of the PFL family and this season looks to be the best one yet. Breaking down MMA fights and high-level martial arts techniques is what I enjoy most, and I’m elated to be a part of the tremendous commentary team to get a chance to do just that.”

PFL CEO Peter Murray expressed his joy in the signing of Florian for future broadcasts.

“We are very excited to add someone as knowledgeable and charismatic as Kenny to our booth calling all the action this season alongside Randy and Sean. With his passion for the sport and experience inside the cage, Kenny will bring excitement and wisdom to every call to ensure our fans enjoy our made-for-TV events. This team will bring invaluable insight every night, and coupled with the leadership of broadcast visionary George Greenberg, the PFL will be delivering a can’t miss production throughout 2021.”
