All bouts at PFL Sioux Falls are set to proceed after Thursday's official weigh-ins, though Magomed Magomedov's missed weight cast a shadow over his scheduled contest against Leandro Higo.
Magomedov, known as "Tiger," came in at 62.1 kg, failing to reach the agreed limit for his bout with Higo. The 33-year-old Russian carries a professional record of 21-5 and stands five-foot-seven with a 70-inch reach. A precise striker who connects at 63.4 percent accuracy, Magomedov relies almost exclusively on his stand-up game, averaging no takedown attempts per 15 minutes. His opponent, Higo — nicknamed "Alter" — checked in at 61.5 kg and is cleared to compete. The 36-year-old Brazilian is 23-7 overall and brings his own sharp striking, posting a 59.81 percent accuracy rate across his career.
The main event pairs Logan Storley, who tipped the scales at 77.3 kg, against Florim Zendeli at 77.6 kg. Alexander Chizhov and Gadzhi Rabadanov will meet at a catchweight of 72.6 kg, with Chizhov coming in at that exact limit and Rabadanov at 72.4 kg. Rabadanov, a 32-year-old Russian with a 26-5-2 record, is a grappling-heavy competitor who averages 3.43 takedowns per 15 minutes and a 56.33 percent striking accuracy. Sergey Bilostennyy and Renan Ferreira headline the heavyweight action at 118.9 kg and 119.2 kg respectively. Simeon Powell faces Emiliano Sordi, Rasul Magomedov meets Rafael Xavier, and Cheyenne Bowers and Sabrina de Sousa are set for a catchweight bout at 60.8 kg.
Why it matters
- Magomedov's weight miss introduces uncertainty around his bout's official status and any potential penalties or forfeitures
- The Storley versus Zendeli main event proceeds without issue, keeping the card's headline match intact
- Rabadanov's wrestling-centric style against Chizhov sets up a compelling stylistic question at catchweight
