After a year-long layoff, PFL women’s flyweight star Dakota Ditcheva returns to action Friday at PFL New York, taking on ex-Bellator title challenger and kickboxer Denise Kielholtz in the night’s co-main event. Ahead of the fight at the UBS Arena in Belmont Park, New York, Ditcheva admitted that there’s been a different feel to the affair. The elephant in the room when it comes to Dakota Ditcheva has been Liz Carmouche. Most saw the pair on a collision course, yet the PFL opted to book Dakota Ditcheva against Kielholtz months back, a fight that was delayed when England’s Ditcheva was injured.
