Johnny Eblen Faces a Double Loss: His Girlfriend Will Leave Him If He Loses at PFL vs. Bellator

Bellator middleweight champion Johnny Eblen is gearing up for a crucial return to the cage this weekend, with his reputation and personal life on the line. Known as ‘The Human Cheat Code,’ Eblen is widely regarded as one of the best fighters outside of the UFC.

Eblen's last outing in September saw him extend his undefeated record to 14-0 with a dominant knockout victory over Fabian Edwards. Following the win, Eblen engaged in a heated exchange with Edwards' brother, Leon Edwards, in a moment that quickly went viral.


Now, Eblen is set to make his return this Saturday night in Saudi Arabia, where he will face former UFC veteran Impa Kasanganay in the co-main event of the PFL vs. Bellator pay-per-view card. Kasanganay, winner of the 2023 PFL light-heavyweight tournament, will drop down to middleweight for the bout.


For Eblen, this fight is a must-win, not just for his career but also for his personal life. In recent months, Eblen has been romantically linked to popular influencer Rebecca J, known for her two million followers on social media. Eblen has reportedly showered her with gifts totaling over $85,000.


However, Rebecca J has made it clear that her relationship with Eblen hinges on his performance in the cage. In a recent interview, she stated,


"[If he loses] then I’m out, yep. Yep. Yeah [he spent that much money on me but] he has to win. He has to win."


Despite the pressure, Eblen remains confident and is currently heavily favored to win the bout. According to current betting odds from MGM, Eblen is a -500 favorite, while Kasanganay is a +360 underdog.
