Thad Jean will put his unbeaten record on the line against Chamil Musaev in the PFL main event at CareFirst Arena in Washington, with the bout scheduled for the night of Saturday 25 to Sunday 26 July. For French viewers, the fight will be shown live and exclusively on RMC Sport from 1h in the morning.
The meeting has a clear sporting edge. Jean arrives as a professional unbeaten at 11V-0D, while Musaev comes in as the division’s 2024 tournament winner. It is the kind of matchup that gives the PFL card immediate meaning, especially with both men carrying recent success into the cage.
The records tell the story
Jean’s run has been built on consistency, with 11 wins and no defeats, including five victories by KO and five by decision. He won the PFL welterweight tournament in 2025 and now steps into another major assignment as he looks to extend that perfect start.
Musaev brings a strong profile of his own. The 28-year-old is listed at 20V-1D-1N, with 12 wins by KO, and he won the tournament in the division in 2024. That résumé, combined with his finishing power, makes him a serious threat in a main event that should offer a proper test for Jean.
Live coverage in France
RMC Sport has confirmed it will broadcast the event live and exclusively in France, from 1h French time, and says it is the official PFL broadcaster in the country. The platform also highlights its digital offer at 19 euros per month with commitment, or 25 euros per month without commitment.
For fans, the appeal is straightforward: an unbeaten champion against a former tournament winner, in a live main event with a French broadcast window that starts in the middle of the night. The result in Washington will help define the next stage of both fighters’ PFL run, while the audience in France now knows exactly where and when to watch it.
