The main card which aired at 9 pm ET featured Lance Palmer as he defeated Luis Rafael Laurentino via TKO in Featherweight action. Also, Chris Wade secured a spot in the playoffs with a unanimous decision over Akhmet Aliev.
PFL 1: 137,000 (prelims)
PFL2: 120,000 (prelims)
PFL 3: 113,000 (prelims)
PFL 4: 227,000 (prelims)
PFL 5: 165,000
Payout Perspective:
A couple weeks after posting a season high for its prelims, PFL 5 dips with a main card featuring Featherweights and Lightweights. This has to be disappointment since it was in a better time slot and it was presumably better fights.
