On Thursday in Atlanta, GA the PFL hosted its last regular season event for the featherweights and light heavyweights. The card solidified four athletes who will advance to the 2023 playoffs sent for July in Texas.
In the main event, 2022 featherweight champion Brendan Loughnane was upset by Jesus Pinedo who not only KO’d the heavy favorite, but knocked him out of the season altogether. Joining Pinedo in the playoffs are Movlid Khaybulaev, Gabriel Braga, and Bubba Jenkins.
The light heavyweights had a unique season so far after many of the athletes competing in PFL 1 were removed from the season after a massive PED scandal rocked the promotion prompting 10 athletes to be suspended. One of those was 2022 champion Robert Wilkinson who was slated to headline the card. Now the season is wide open for the taking. In the light heavyweight headliner, former champion Marthin Hamlet defeated Sam Kei to secure his playoff spot. Joining him is Impa Kasanganay, Joshua Silveria and Ty Flores
