Khasan Magomedsharipov is set to make his PFL debut on June 28, returning to competition for the first time in roughly a year when he squares off with Levi Saul Marroquin at PFL San Diego. Both fighters will be stepping into the PFL cage for the first time, making this a meeting of two promotional newcomers.

Magomedsharipov, a Russian featherweight, has been on the sidelines since June 2024, and the San Diego card marks his long-awaited comeback. The layoff stretches close to a full year by the time the bout takes place, adding extra significance to how he performs in his organizational debut.

Marroquin enters the matchup as a fellow newcomer to the promotion, meaning neither man carries the familiarity of an established PFL presence heading into fight night.

Why it matters

  • Both fighters are making their PFL debuts simultaneously, raising the stakes for each man's first impression with the promotion.
  • Magomedsharipov returns from nearly twelve months away from competition, making the rust factor a legitimate storyline heading into June 28.
  • A strong performance from either fighter could establish early positioning within the PFL featherweight landscape.
