2023 PFL 5 results, Table set for Heavyweight & Women’s Featherweight Playoffs
PFL 5 regular season made its way to Atlanta with all kinds of great talent and had huge names not only inside the octagon but also cage side like Francis Ngannou who will be fighting soon in the PFL promotion, and Jon “Bones” Jones both in the same building.
It only gets better with the card featuring Muhammad Ali’s grandson Biaggio Ali-Walsh who made a name for himself tonight with a huge first round finish. There was also a series of male and female UFC veterans like Former UFC and Ultimate Fighter standout Maurice Greene who faced 2022 PFL Heavyweight Champion Ante Delija in the main event. We can’t forget to mention Aspen Ladd and Yorgan De Castro who both had been released by the UFC within a calendar year. The fight card itself totally delivered with great knockouts and even had some world class submissions also.
Fab fives and quick sixes were scored tonight which will escalate a lot of these fighters up in rankings to help clinch playoff spots.
