PFL Playoffs: Brendan Loughnane vs. Kai Kamaka III fight card, channel guide, betting odds

As a seasoned MMA enthusiast with over two decades of watching fights under my belt, I can’t help but feel a thrill running down my spine as I gaze upon the PFL Playoff fight card for August 23. The featherweights and welterweights are locked in a battle royale, with only two fighters from each division advancing to the PFL Finals later this year.


On this coming Friday, the 23rd of August, we’ll witness the third and final Professional Fighters League Playoff match. This week showcases bouts between featherweights and welterweights, with a total of four playoff fights scheduled. Only two fighters from each division will move forward after these encounters.

2022 PFL Featherweight Champion Brendan Loughnane, who failed to reach the finals last year, faces off against Kai Kamaka III in the main event. This is Kamaka’s first shot at the PFL Finals as he comes from Bellator. In another featherweight fight, Gabriel Braga battles Timur Khirzriev. The victor of each match will proceed to the PFL Finals later this year.

In simpler terms, the secondary main event features a welterweight showdown between Magomed Umalatov and Neiman Gracie. Whichever one of them emerges victorious will go on to compete against the winner of Shamil Musaev versus Murad Ramazanov in the PFL Championship match.
