PFL 8 Weigh-in Results: Olena Kolesnyk Misses Weight for Semifinal
The weigh-ins ahead of
Professional Fighters League‘s heavyweight and women’s
featherweight semifinals were far from drama-free.
The
PFL 8 main event will see Renan
Ferreira battle Maurice
Greene at heavyweight. The lone semifinalist to miss weight was
Olena
Kolesnyk (147.8), who checked in 1.8 pounds over the
featherweight limit. She will be fined 20% of her purse and docked
a point for her trilogy match against Larissa
Pacheco (146). As for the rest of the card, preliminary
heavyweight Daiqwon
Buckley (272.4) came in 6.4 pounds over the 266-pound cap,
changing his matchup with Louie
Sutherland (250.6) to a super heavyweight fight and earning
Buckley at 20% fine. Additionally, a 155-pound pairing between
Chris
Mixan and Eddy George
fell through when Mixan reportedly
failed to attend the weigh-ins.
Ferreira (10-3, 3 NC) is coming off a knockout win over Matheus
Scheffel that came just 50 seconds into the fight. The towering
6-foot-8 Brazilian will be the lighter fighter, as he stepped on
the scale weighing 259.6 pounds. Meanwhile, Greene is looking to
bounce back from a decision defeat to Ante Delija.
Just 1-2 inside the PFL, “The Crochet Boss” weighed 261.8
pounds.
PFL 8 will begin airing on Friday at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on ESPN+.
The main card will air on ESPN and ESPN+ as well, starting at 9
p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
