By The Numbers: Bubba Jenkins vs. Kyle Bochniak

A squabble over the same piece of Professional Fighters League pie will bring featherweight hopefuls Bubba Jenkins and Kyle Bochniak together when they will lock horns as part of the PFL 2 undercard on Thursday at Esports Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Neither man can afford a backward step at the start of their respective 2022 campaigns.

Jenkins has rattled off five victories across his past six outings. He last appeared at PFL 9, where he was eliminated from the league semifinals in a unanimous decision loss to former Ring of Combat champion Chris Wade on Aug. 27. Bochniak, meanwhile, rides a three-fight winning streak into the cage. He last fought on April 2, when he eked out a split verdict over Carlton Minus under the Xtreme MMA banner.
