Bellator champ Patchy Mix details his current situation with PFL, which has him feeling like he’s wasting his prime years of his MMA career.

Patchy Mix, one of the most talented bantamweights in the world, has publicly requested his release from the PFL.

At 31, Mix's future has been left uncertain as of late, as it has for dozens of other Bellator fighters struggling to settle into their new home at PFL. Bellator champions like Patricio Pitbull have demanded their release, finally getting it after weeks of asking. Mix continues to do more of the same, heading into February.

Since PFL absorbed Bellator in November 2023, Mix has fought one time – in April 2024 – when he defeated Magomed Magomedov by split decision. "Right now I'm 31 years of age," Mix wrote on Instagram.
