The Professional Fighters League has unveiled the complete lineup for PFL MENA 2, set to take place Friday, July 4, at the Green Halls in Riyadh. The event will showcase the next wave of elite fighters from the Middle East and North Africa, with tournament implications and showcase bouts highlighting a stacked card.

The main event features a high-stakes Welterweight Showcase bout between reigning 2024 PFL MENA Champion Omar El Dafrawy (13-5-0) of Egypt and 2024 PFL Europe finalist Daniele Miceli (13-6-0) of Italy.
