PFL Playoffs Weigh-in Results: Larissa Pacheco Misses Mark, Pulled from Semifinal Bout

The women’s lightweight bracket of the Professional Fighters League playoffs will look a little different than originally anticipated after Larissa Pacheco missed weight on Wednesday.

Pacheco, who was the top seed at 155 pounds, tipped the scales at 158 pounds for her proposed semifinal clash against Taylor Guardado (155.6). As a result, Pacheco has been replaced by No. 5 Mariana Morais, who checked in a 153.6 pounds. The other half of the lightweight semifinals are official, as defending champ Kayla Harrison (155.6) and opponent Genah Fabian (156) made weight for Thursday’s headlining bout.

Meanwhile, Bruno Henrique Cappelozza (235.6) will square off against Jamelle Jones (250.8) in one heavyweight semifinal, while Denis Goltsov (250) locks horns with Ante Delija (244.4) in the other half of the bracket.

The winners of their respective matchups will advance to the PFL championships on Oct. 27 for a chance to compete for a $1 million prize.

The card takes place at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The main card airs on ESPN and ESPN+ at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, while the prelims stream on ESPN+ at 5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT.
