August 8, 2023 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

The first set of Professional Fighters League Playoffs drew 299,000 viewers per Sports Media Watch. The telecast on Friday night paved the way for light heavyweights and featherweights to make it to the million dollar final.

The telecast saw Jesus Pinedo continue his Cinderella season as he upset Bubba Jenkins to make it to the final in New York. Gabriel Braga earned a victory over Chris Wade to make it to the final to set the other end of the bracket.

The light heavyweight final was set with Impa Kasanganay and number 1 seed Josh Silveira making it to the final.

The telecast also featured some great talent on the undercard with Chelsea Hackett and Thad Jean (pictured below) getting wins.

The playoffs continue on ESPN the following 2 weeks.
