With the debut season of the Professional Fighters League set to kick off in just a few weeks, the promotion is bringing on a standout veteran behind the scenes. Former WEC champion and UFC fighter Brian Stann will help lead PFL’s fighter and competition/rules committee, the promotion announced in a news release. Stann’s background as a color commentator for the UFC on FOX Sports broadcasts should help him in that role, as well. According to the release, Stann “will play a major leadership role on the Fighter and Competition/Rules Committee in its efforts to support fighters by developing procedures and making recommendations with respect to competition format and rules, fighter care, and athlete conduct.” PFL’s debut event takes place June 7 at Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York. Four fights air on NBCSN following eight contests that stream live on Facebook, though the night’s bout order has yet to be officially finalized.
