High Fives: Submission Maestro

Outside of Bellator 207 and Bellator 208, the MMA world’s focus during the weekend of Oct. 12-14 was on the Professional Fighters League and PFL 9. The card featured quarterfinal and semifinal bouts in the promotion’s light heavyweight and lightweight tournaments on Saturday in Long Beach, California, and there was no shortage of entertainment.
