The Global Fight League took its first step toward its MMA debut.
The fledgling promotion held its draft on Friday to determine the six teams competing in 2025. These teams, which are divided by cities, drafted many notable names, including former UFC champions Holly Holm, Chris Weidman, Tyron Woodley, Junior Dos Santos, Andrei Arlovski, and many more.
So, how do we feel about the draft? Will it work in MMA? How are the teams looking? What possible enticing matchups can they make?
