PFL 4 full results, highlights and standings: Multiple fighters clinch playoff spots
Last night, The Professional Fighters League (PFL) took over the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York with PFL 4.
This action-packed event featured the final regular season bouts for PFL’s heavyweight and featherweight divisions, meaning that seven fighters in both of these weight classes have now clinched playoffs spots. These fighters will meet in the playoffs later this year, with the winner capturing the divisional championship and a $1 million dollar payday.
PFL 4 was packed to the edges with finishes. Among the highlights were Francimar Barroso’s first-round submission defeat of Jack May, Steven Siler’s first-round submission of Alexander Almeida (which was unfortunately due to an officiating blunder), Philipe Lins’ second-round TKO of Alex Nicholson, and Kelvin Tiller’s second-round sub of Jared Rosholt.
Here are the full PFL 4 results, along with some highlights of each bout.
