(Redirected from PFL 9 (2021 season))
Professional Fighters League MMA event in 2021
The fight card marked the final playoff event with featherweights and light heavyweights competing in the playoff semifinals.
Headliners Brendan Loughnane and Movlid Khaybulaev met in a featherweight contest, each fighter looking for their first PFL Championship berth. Loughnane debuted in Season 2 with a pair of wins in one-off fights, while Khaybulaev fell short in the Season 2 quarterfinals after suffering a knockout loss against Daniel Pineda, who was later suspended for an anti-doping violation.
The other featherweight bracket saw the wrestling standout Bubba Jenkins, in his first PFL season, take on three-time PFL Playoff competitor Chris Wade and light heavyweights Cezar Ferreira and Marthin Hamlet met for a shot at fighting in the PFL Championship. The other light heavyweight bout saw Season 2 light heavyweight champ and No. 4 seed Emiliano Sordi take on UFC veteran Antônio Carlos Júnior.
At weigh-ins, Bobby Moffett weighed in at 148.2 pounds, missing weight by 2.2 pounds. The bout proceeded at catchweight and Moffett was fined a percentage of his purse, which went to Jason Knight.
