The Professional Fighters League (PFL<\/a>) is under investigation after an event of theirs was flagged for suspicious betting activity.<\/p>\n

Last Friday night on April 1, the PFL put on a Challenger Series event that was intended to showcase some new faces within the mixed martial arts sphere. However, those who decided to bet on the outcome of the fights involved were left with their accounts under review over the weekend after some strange activity was seen in the hours leading up to the show.<\/p>\n

A string of fighters became overwhelming favourites to secure the win and all of those who had heavy bets put on them did, in fact, come out victorious in their contests.<\/p>\n

Now, it has been revealed the fights were actually pretaped on March 25 – leading to rampant speculation that many bettors were aware of who had won prior to the broadcast getting underway.<\/p>\n

\n

PFL is in hot water for allegedly not disclosing one of their challenger events wasn\u2019t live when Sportsbooks still took bets on the event\u2019s fights thinking it was live. https:\/\/t.co\/jzeWIfO9dj<\/a><\/p>\n
