Kaytlin Neil Aiming to Be Face of PFL Women’s Flyweight Division

“The Ultimate Fighter” Season 30 alum Kaytlin Neil wants to take the new Professional Fighters League women’s 125-pound division by storm.

A long road brought Neil (6-4) to the PFL Challenger Series, but now that she’s there, she wants to take over. While she still has to defeat Griet Eeckhout on Feb. 24, as well as impress a celebrity panel and pass a fan vote to secure a place in the PFL Regular Season, Neil showed much self-confidence ahead of her upcoming assignment. “Katniss” is pretty sure she’ll dominate her opponent as she did with her latest foe, Hannah Guy, in their Invicta FC 49 encounter. While speaking with Sherdog, Neil stated that competing on “TUF” 30 was the hardest thing she has ever been through because her dad died while she was on the show. She also made it clear that she’s in the PFL to stay to win the $1 million prize.

“I’m stoked about it. I love that they are building the division and they're needing a champion and a face for that and I think I fit the bill. I'm ready to be the face of the 125-pounders at PFL. I also like money and they actually pay their fighters, so I am stoked for that. I'm like way happy to be with PFL.”
