The PFL has added another bout to its 14 November event in Dubai: Khamzat Abaev (6-1) meets Ireland's Leon Hill (9-2) at welterweight, Sherdog reports. The Coca-Cola Arena card is headlined by heavyweight champion Vadim Nemkov defending his title against Sergei Bilostenniy.
Abaev knocked out Luca Poclit at 2:56 of the first round at PFL Brussels in May. Before that, he suffered the first defeat of his professional career, a decision loss to Chequina Noso Pedro in July 2025.
Hill has won his last four fights, most recently stopping Aldo Pereira under the Cage Warriors banner in February. His last defeat came against Ieuan Davies in October 2023.
