The semifinals are over, and the finals set for the 2021 PFL season.
Friday’s PFL Playoffs 3 card marked the end of the semifinal round, with featherweights and light heavyweights in action. In all, it was a mixed bag — a lengthy broadcast delay due to a football game irritated viewers, and Cezar Ferreira fell to injury mere seconds into this fight with Marthin Hamlet.
That said, Chris Wade looked fantastic in a grudge match against Bubba Jenkins, and Antonio Carlos Jr. vs. Emiliano Sordi did not disappoint.
In the main event, meanwhile, Movlid Khaybulaev looked dominant against fan fave Brendan Loughnane, with the split decision result a bit of a question mark. Still, the Dagestani “Killer” moves on to face Wade in the featherweight final, while Carlos Jr. vs. Hamlet is your light heavyweight final.
Full results and highlights from Friday’s card can be found below.
