We didn't get there without a little controversy, but the Professional Fighters League 2021 featherweight final will feature two of the promotion’s most prolific and accomplished fighters.
The semifinal between No. 1 seed Brendan Loughnane and No. 4 seed Movlid Khaybulaev was characterized by a dominant first two rounds for the undefeated Dagestani, followed by a spirited third-round comeback on the part of Loughnane. What appeared to be a very straightforward win by Khaybulaev was marred by a head-scratching scorecard for the Brit, but the split decision is still good enough to propel him to the finals.
