PFL Tournament 5 Weigh-in Results: All Semifinal Bouts Official

It’s all systems go for the semifinal bouts scheduled for PFL World Tournament 5.

All eight fighters — four welterweights and four featherweights — hit their contracted marks at weigh-ins on Wednesday. It wasn’t entirely smooth sailing, however, as Anthony Ivy tipped the scales at 175.4 pounds for his welterweight alternate clash against Magomed Umalatov (170.4). As a result, that matchup will be contested as a catchweight bout.

PFL World Tournament 5 takes place on Thursday at Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, and features semifinal pairings at welterweight and featherweight. The evening’s main event is a 170-pound clash between former Bellator champion Jason Jackson (171) and rising talent Thad Jean (170.4). The main card airs on ESPN and ESPN+ at 11 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT, while prelims begin on ESPN+ at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT.

Jackson has been victorious in nine of his last 10 professional outings. After losing the Bellator strap to Ramazan Kuramagomedov at Bellator Champions Series Dublin last June, “The Ass Kicking Machine” returned to former in the welterweight quarterfinals, choking out Andrey Koreshkov at PFL World Tournament 1 on April 3.

The 26-year-old Jean has yet to taste defeat in nine appearances. He made a statement in the quarterfinals when he scored a first-round knockout of Mukhamed Berkhamov at PFL World Tournament 1.
