A pair of Russian fighters have stepped in as replacement competitors in Professional Fighters League’s upcoming debut season.

PFL officials today informed MMAjunkie that heavyweight Evgeniy Goncharov (10-2) has replaced an injured Nick Rossborough (26-20-1), while welterweight Magomed Magomedkerimov (18-5) has stepped in for David Zawada (16-3), who failed to come to terms with the organization despite being announced as part of the company’s roster.

Goncharov and Magomedkerimov will now take part in PFL’s upcoming debut season, with hopes of qualifying for the playoffs and taking him the $1 million prize set aside for each bracket’s final champion.

Goncharov made his professional debut in 2013 and currently owns a six-fight winning streak built while competing under a variety of banners in his native Russia. Goncharov, 31, has earned five of his career wins via stoppage, though he’s also earned the judges’ nod on five different occasions. His two professional losses have come by knockout.

Fighting since he was a teenager, Magomedkerimov boasts almost 10 years of professional experience. The Russian brings a three-fight winning streak to the cage – however, he hasn’t competed since an October 2016 win over Bobby Cooper in a WSOF contest. Nine of Magomedkerimov’s 18 career victories have come by knockout.

The PFL’s debut season kicks off June 7 in New York City at Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden with bouts streaming on Facebook and then airing on NBCSN.
