2025 Panini Contenders PFL MMA/UFC

2025 Panini Contenders PFL takes the longstanding card brand into a new place. But there’s still some familiarity, both in its structure and some of the fighters on the checklist. Like Contenders releases in other sports, autographs are a major focus. Hobby boxes have four signed cards, which averages out to one per pack. 2025 Panini Contenders PFL Checklist Overview One of the hallmarks of Contenders is its inspiration — tickets. This is clear in the base set, which uses the Season Ticket name. The layout includes elements found on traditional tickets used to get into events, at least before they went predominantly digital. Parallels come in several levels including Cracked Ice (/25) and Championship Ticket (1/1). Season Ticket Signatures keep the same design and add autographs to the equation. Bellator Ink is another spot on the checklist to find signatures. Signers in the product include such MMA legends as Fedor Emelianenko, Randy Couture, Ken Shamrock, Tito Ortiz, Chael Sonnen and Frank Mir. Superstar Die-Cuts and Crown Jewels are both short print inserts. Voices of the Cage spotlights PFL announcers.
