Two No. 7 tournament seeds will face off with two No. 1 frontrunners in the featherweight and lightweight divisions of the PFL Season 2 tournament.
In the PFL 8 playoff headliner at lightweight, underdog Loik Radzhabov denied Chris Wade a rematch with Season 1 winner Natan Schulte, wearing down the American with a smothering attack.
Radzhabov had advanced to the semis after a nail-biter against Islam Mamedov, who fought to a majority draw, requiring a poll of judges to decide the fight’s overall winner. All three chose Radzhabov, whose striking left its mark opposite Mamedov’s grappling.
