The PFL welterweight and lightweight divisions have their $1 million championship matchups confirmed.
At welterweight, 2019 champion Ray Cooper III comfortably outclassed former UFC title challenger Rory MacDonald to advance to the final. It certainly wasn’t the barnburner like other Cooper fights tend to be, but MacDonald’s performance was a major reason for that. Magomed Magomedkerimov had a workmanlike performance as he swept the scorecards to defeat Sadibou Sy to get back to the final for the first time since winning against Cooper in 2018.
In the lightweight division, top-seeded Loik Radzhabov avenged a regular season loss to Paraguay’s Alexander Martinez to punch his ticket to October’s tournament final, whereas Raush Manfio scored a somewhat controversial upset decision win over Clay Collard in the other semi.
