Logan Storley earned a unanimous decision victory over Florim Zendeli in the main event, continuing his run as one of PFL's most consistent welterweights. In the co-main, Gadzhimurad Rabbadanov defeated Alexander Chizhov by unanimous decision, with two judges scoring it a dominant 30-27 and the third returning a 29-28.
Sergey Bilostenniy delivered one of the night's most emphatic finishes, stopping Renan Ferreira by TKO in the third round of their heavyweight contest. Magomed Magomedov picked up a hard-fought split decision over Leandro Higo, who came in at 23-7 at 36 years of age. The Brazilian, standing five-foot-eight with a 69-inch reach, boasts a striking accuracy of nearly 60 percent but managed limited offensive output over the course of his career, averaging just 0.4 significant strikes per minute.
Tayla Santos turned in a sharp performance in the women's division, stopping Yan Qihui by TKO in the first round. Yan, known as "Queen Kong," entered the bout at 25-5 with a respectable 4.38 significant strikes landed per minute and 46 percent striking accuracy. The 29-year-old, standing five-foot-three with a 62-inch reach, had also shown a takedown threat at 3.68 attempts per 15 minutes, but Santos shut the contest down early.
Rasul Magomedov added another unanimous decision win over Rafael Xavier, while Brett Bye closed out the undercard with a first-round knockout of Taylor Michels.
