PFL Playoffs Weigh-in Results: Welterweight & Lightweight Semifinals Set, 2 Fighters Heavy
The Professional Fighters League returns with its first installment of the 2021 playoff series. The 10-fight card features four semifinal bouts in the welterweight and lightweight divisions with Rory MacDonald vs. Ray Cooper III atop the card. While all semifinalists made weight, two PFL 7 undercard fighters missed weight: Darrell Horcher and Leandro Silva.
MacDonald (22-7-1) most recently suffered a controversial decision loss to Gleison Tibau and will look to rebound against Cooper III (22-7-1), who is on a four-fight win streak. The other welterweight semifinal sees Magomed Magomedkerimov (27-5) facing off against the 34-year-old Swede Sadibou Sy (9-5-2, 1 NC). Meanwhile, the lightweight semifinals will see Clay Collard (20-8, 1 NC) go up against Raush Manfio (13-3), and Loik Radzhabov (14-3-1) face Alex Martinez (8-1)
PFL Playoffs will begin at 5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT on ESPN+ and the main card movies to ESPN+ and ESPN2 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
