      Brett Okamoto has reported on mixed martial arts and boxing at ESPN since 2010. He has covered all of the biggest events in combat sports during that time, including in-depth interviews and features with names such as Dana White, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao and Georges St-Pierre. He was also a producer on the 30 for 30 film: «Chuck and Tito,» which looked back at the careers and rivalry of Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz. He lives in Las Vegas, and is an avid, below-average golfer in his spare time.

Longtime PFL chairman Donn Davis announced his resignation Wednesday, the latest in a series of changes to the promotion’s leadership.

Davis, 63, announced the move via social media. His exit comes on the heels of departures by longtime CEO Peter Murray and president Ray Sefo.

«Today I’m stepping down as chairman of PFL,» Davis stated on X. «I care deeply about each employee, value highly every investor, respect greatly our fighters, and appreciate sincerely all our fans who supported this company. I gave you everything I’ve got.»

Davis led the company from its onset in 2017, when a group of investors purchased the World Series of Fighting and relaunched it as the Professional Fighters League. The league operated under a regular season, playoffs format and then tournament format until new CEO John Martin switched to a traditional matchmaking system.
