Better than nothing

PFL is trying to set the record for the longest card of all time with this one. I could do without the MENA fights but overall I do like this card, interesting matchups on the showcase bouts and I think most of the title fights this year are pretty close, hard to pick a winner. Particularly excited for Loughnane/Khizriev, Ditcheva/Santos, and Umalatov/Musaev

 

[CDJ]

Elbows legal for this one yayyyyyy

The filler to total fights ratio on this card is wild lol. What on Earth are they doing?

 

[MMC]

As much as I love Ditcheva, her being -380 is still wild

As I said before, wish the MENA fights weren’t on here, but when Saudi Arabia is financing your company, they can demand these things

Pinedo missed weight, Jeremy Kennedy fights Braga now

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I know I'm going to feel dumb when I get the answer but what the hell does the MENA stand for? Something North America I'm assuming?

Never mind I am dumb it's Middle East and North Africa lol

 

[MMC]

Happy for Goltsov, always thought he was very good but seemed to choke big fights

 

[MMC]

What a card this has been so far, crazy seeing Dovlet run through Impa like that. Missed the last 2 fights but saw the KO clips

 

[MMC]

Ditcheva would be champ in the UFC right now, completely dismantled Taila

 

[CDJ]

Great main card

Khizriev brutalized Loughnane

 

[MMC]

Probably the best PFL event ever

 

[CDJ]

Think this guy would fight for the WW belt in the ufc
