PFL 3: Kasanganay vs. Edwards took place at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando on Friday night. Here are the results.
The main event featured former PFL light heavyweight champion Impa Kasanganay, returning to the middleweight division. He aimed to add another victory and substantial prize money to his record against Fabian Edwards. Edwards, a two-time Bellator title challenger, sought to make a significant impact in his debut PFL tournament.
In the lightweight division, former UFC fighter Marc Diakiese faced the 2024 PFL lightweight champion Gadzhi Rabadanov. This matchup was highly anticipated to be an explosive fight. Rabadanov had a dominant run in the previous PFL season, culminating in a knockout victory over Brent Primus in the finals.
Gadzhi Rabadanov, currently on a 10-fight winning streak, looked to maintain his momentum as he clashed with Diakiese to open the PFL lightweight tournament.
The scheduled fight between Robert Watley and Tony Caruso was cancelled shortly before the event began.
