Official weigh-in results for PFL Sioux Falls are in, with the full 12-bout card cleared to compete — except for one notable miss. Magomed Magomedov failed to make weight ahead of his scheduled bout against Leandro Higo, adding a wrinkle to the card the day before action begins.

The main card is headlined by Logan Storley taking on Florim Zendeli in the welterweight division. Alexander Chizhov and Gadzhi Rabadanov are set for a catchweight contest. Rabadanov, a 32-year-old Russian with a 26-5-2 record, is an active grappler who averages 3.43 takedowns per 15 minutes while also landing at a 56.33 percent striking accuracy clip across a 71-inch reach. Simeon Powell versus Emiliano Sordi and Sergey Bilostennyy versus Renan Ferreira in the heavyweight division round out the main card.

Why it matters

  • Magomedov's weight miss puts the status of his bout against Higo in question, pending PFL's official ruling on whether the fight proceeds.
  • The heavyweight clash between Bilostennyy and Ferreira carries significant divisional weight in PFL's rankings structure.
  • The Chizhov-Rabadanov catchweight booking signals a negotiated agreement between two fighters whose divisional homes did not align, making the bout's implications less straightforward for either man's standing.
