Paul Hughes opened up on why he opted to sign with PFL over the UFC.

Hughes is 2-0 at 155 pounds, scoring back-to-back first-round finishes – most recently earlier this month at Cage Warriors 170. Hughes (11-1) says the UFC made an offer, but not lucrative enough to sway him away from PFL’s numbers.
