Saturday’s PFL 8 card, set to unfold in Cardiff, Wales, is official.
All fighters made weight for the welterweight and heavyweight semifinals, which should come as no surprise — even with two late additions to the event. Those were Dilano Taylor, stepping up on short notice in the main event against Rory MacDonald, and Juan Adams, also joining the fray on just days’ notice against Matheus Scheffel.
Both fighters being replaced, Denis Goltsov and Magomed Umalatov, were unable to secure visas for the U.K.
Full results from Friday’s weigh-in can be found below. The event takes place this Saturday, August 13, 2022 at the Cardiff Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff, Wales.
