Undefeated in the 2023 season, Bruno Miranda and Carlos Leal are one step away from competing in the finals of the PFL millionaire tournament in the lightweight (up to 70,3kg) and welterweight (up to 77,1kg) categories, respectively. This Wednesday (23), in New York (USA), Brazilians climb the decagon for the most important commitments of their careers to date.

Inserted in the co-main fight, Bruno Miranda, 'Robusto', tries to reach his first PFL title. A lightweight representative, the athlete faces former UFC Olivier Aubin-Mercier in the main clash.

Still in the second half of the event, Carlos Leal is trying to reach the final of the welterweight tournament for the second year in a row. Stopped by Sadibou Sy last season, the Brazilian reunites with his former tormentor and tries to return the defeat suffered in 2022.

In the main fight, Clay Collard squares off with Shane burgos, former Ultimate athlete. The clash will be contested at lightweight.

At a great moment in his career, Bruno Miranda is trying to continue his successful trajectory since his debut in the PFL. To reach the semifinals, the lightweight got past Ahmed Amir and Alex Martinez.

This Wednesday, the Brazilian will have a major commitment. To reach the final, the athlete will need to get past Aubin-Mercier, who won the title in 2022 and has an unbeaten run of eight appearances.

If Bruno's commitment is significant, the same can be said of Carlos Leal. A highlight of the company, the Tupiniquim will have a rematch with the athlete responsible for ending his dream of winning the belt in 2022.

While Leal is looking to reach his first final, Sy is trying for his second title in the welterweight division.
