PFL Africa 1 will be in Cape Town, South Africa on July 19. The prelims start at 10 a.m. ET. The main card starts at 2 p.m. ET, while the main event should begin around 5:30 p.m. ET, depending on how long the undercard fights last.

If he does nothing else, Costello van Steenis will always be remembered for Saturday's fight. Not only did he become PFL middleweight champion, van Steenis (17-3) did so in improbable fashion when he submitted Johnny Eblen with nine seconds left in their five-round bout.

In the main event, Johnny Eblen and Costello van Steenis will square off for the PFL middleweight title. Eblen has a perfect career record of 16-0, while van Steenis has won four of his past five fights. Dakota Ditcheva, who is 14-0 in her career, will clash with Sumiko Inaba in the co-main event.
