Dakota Ditcheva will fight for $1 million if she wins Friday at 2024 PFLPlayoffs 1, and she's not about to stumble while at the doorstep.
Dakota Ditcheva’s focus and determination is at an all-time high as she enters 2024 PFL Playoffs 1.
Ditcheva (12-0) is the No. 1 seed in the women’s flyweight season, and will attempt to punch her ticket to the $1 million championship round when she meets Jena Bishop (7-1) in a playoff bout Friday at Nashville Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, Tenn. (ESPN/ESPN+).
The unbeaten Brit has torn through the competition so far to maintain her undefeated record, and said she won’t let Bishop get in the way of the ultimate goal.
“She was almost out of the tournament – she still made (the playoffs) as No. 4 seed,” Ditcheva told MMA Junkie. “She’s going to be hungry to make that final. She’s not going to wan to make the same mistakes and I think obviously she’s had a few things to say about me before in the tournament. Like the people who I’ve been matched against and things like that.
“I’m sure she’ll be happy to be facing me and me and will be coming to try and end and stop my hype train, but I don’t know whether she’ll be the person to do it.”
