The PFL 2023 featherweight and light heavyweight playoff brackets have been determined following PFL 4.

The massive combat sports weekend has officially started. PFL 4: Brendan Loughnane vs. Jesus Pinedo led the way and it was quite the event.

PFL 4 had 12 fights on the card and delivered a mixed bag of finishes including submissions and knockouts. The main event itself delivered a major upset with Pinedo knocking out the massive favorite, and last season's champion just 94 seconds into the very first round.

With the different results the night delivered, this changes the standings in both the featherweight and light heavyweight rankings.

Of course, only the top four in each division advance to the playoffs. With the action from the 145-pounders and 205-pounders complete, the playoff brackets have been confirmed.
