About 2026 Contenders PFL

2026 Panini Contenders PFL overview, key cards and what collectors chase

2026 Panini Contenders PFL brings the Contenders ticket design to the Professional Fighters League, released August 5, 2026. The 99-card Season Ticket base has a fight-night themed parallel run (Playoff, Main Card, Co-Main Event and Main Event Tickets), and the autographs are split across Season Ticket Signatures, PFL Ink and Championship Moments.

What's in the checklist

  • Season Ticket: 99 cards with Silver, Red Fireworks /299, Playoff Ticket /199, Main Card Ticket /99, Co-Main Event Ticket /49, Cracked Ice /25, Main Event Ticket /10 and Championship Ticket and Black Fireworks 1/1s
  • Inserts: Supernatural (20), Winning Ticket (20), 2006 Throwback (19), Legendary Contenders (15), Championship Contenders (15) and Champions Series Stars (10), each with Red and Blue Fireworks, Silver /99, Cracked Ice /25, Gold /10, Gold Fireworks /10, Black Fireworks 1/1 and Platinum 1/1 parallels, plus Crown Jewels (10) and Superstar Die-Cuts (10)
  • Autographs: 63 Season Ticket Signatures, PFL Ink in /99, /49 and /28 versions, and Championship Moments Signatures in /99, /49 and /28 versions

Key fighters

The Season Ticket set opens with Vadim Nemkov, Denis Goltsov, former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, Ilima-Lei Macfarlane and Biaggio Ali Walsh. Champions Series Stars features Usman Nurmagomedov, Dakota Ditcheva, A.J. McKee, Corey Anderson, Sergio Pettis and Cris Cyborg.

Grading considerations

Championship Ticket 1/1s, Cracked Ice parallels and the low-numbered Championship Moments Signatures are among the cards collectors commonly consider for grading. Cracked Ice and Fireworks foil finishes show scratches and dimples under light, so check surfaces closely. See our pricing.
