  PFL postponing 2020 season due to coronavirus

  The Professional Fighters League (PFL) is a relatively new MMA promotion that started in 2018. It treats MMA like other sports and has a regular season, post-season, and championship. PFL had to postpone their season this year due to the coronavirus. They did agree to continue giving the fighters on their roster their monthly stipends despite not being able to put on any fights. This decision was originally made in April and the 2020 season has still not started in November.

  Rizin 24 Behind the Scenes Photos

  Watching this event I found it interesting to see all of the masks that were being worn by staff and around the ring contrasting with the fighter not wearing one. I was also surprised that there were so many people in the crowd. This tweet and the photos it includes show that even in Japan, masks are strictly being worn in some capacity. ASU, HST485

  One bizarre mask and heads touching! It got heated during the UFC Vegas face offs | Woodley v Burns

  This video shows the changes to face off procedures in the UFC because of the pandemic. I have enjoyed seeing the way that some fighters used their masks as an extension of their personality in these weird times. I find it kind of interesting how the fighters wear masks for the face offs only to completely disregard them and any kind of social distancing on fight night. ASU, HST485
