Updated brackets heading into the PFL Playoffs
By Chad Porto
The 2022 PFL Playoffs are about to get started but who is going to compete in them?
The PFL Playoffs are here, after a few months of back and forth action from the best fighters in the Pro Fighters League, the home stretch is in sight. Over the next three weeks, fighters across six weight classes will try and finalize their spots for the finals on Nov. 25.
The tournament will see names from the UFC and Bellator that fans will surely remember, like Rory MacDonald, Anthony Pettis, and Bubba Jenkins. The playoff will also feature some of the PFL’s most recognizable stars who have made their name in the promotion. There’s Chris Wade, who’s fought for them since their inaugural season in 2018, two towering heavyweights in Renan Ferreira and Bruno Cappelozza who are just among the best at getting finishes, and of course, there is Kayla Harrison; the franchise.
For fans hoping to see Harrison in the playoffs, this is expected to be the last year she competes in them, moving into more super-fight territories for PFL in 2023.
