PFL Playoffs: Rory MacDonald vs. Gasan Umalatov fight card, start time, channel guide
By Chad Porto
The PFL Playoffs continue on Saturday morning as Rory MacDonald and Gasan Umalatov headline PFL 8.
The PFL will be making its debut in Cardiff Wales on Saturday morning, for PFL 8. The PFL Playoffs for 2022 are underway, and Rory MacDonald and Gasan Umalatov will square off in the main event to find out which welterweight goes on to Madison Square Garden for the finals of the PFL Playoffs.
They’re not the only ones, as heavyweights Ante Delija and Renan Ferreira and Denis Goltsov vs. Matheus Scheffel will scuffle to find out who will be representing the heavyweights in the finals as well. It’s a big moment for the division, as the 2021 winner, Bruno Cappelozza failed to qualify, meaning a new winner will be crowned.
The other fight on the main card is another welterweight bout, pitting Sadibou Sy against Carlos Leal to see who will take on the winner of MacDonald/Umalatov in the finals.
The card is going to be on early in the morning for fans in the States, so be sure you get up early, and power up your ESPN+ app and cable boxes so you can check out the second of three PFL playoff cards this August.
