They needed to make major changes:

First, increase the number of regular season fights by each fighter from two to three.

Second, divide each weight class into round robin groups of four fighters each, with each fighter facing the other three fighters in their own group once.

The vast majority of the time, head-to-head results could be used to break ties: If two fighters in a group finish 2-1 (and the other two 1-2), whoever won the head-to-head fight between the 2-1 fighters wins the group.  Only if three fighters in a group finished 2-1 (with the fourth fighter 0-3) would all the arcane stuff come into play.

I do not agree with theese change proposal

each fighter from two to three: will increese the risk of injuries and fighter not making it to the playoff.

 divide each weight class into round robin: Its not a fair for the fighter, I prefer the mixed way.

If you extended the season you could do 3 regular season fights, but that’s asking the finalists to fight 6 times in a year

That would be a tough go for the fighters

So thats the guys, and girls, that will decide if Casual would come back next event or not. I hope they want to go to war in this cage!!!

4 girls fight on the card is a risky move, we will see if it would pay. At least 155pds women can't be as worst as 115pds.

I quite like the way the PFL bracelet plays out, especially extra points for finishing fights I felt worked and definitely helped increase the amount of finishes in the early fights. The 1 thing I really wish they change is the ******** way of deciding the quarter finals (maybe semis?) where the fights are 2rds and for some reason whoever wins the 1st rd won the fight if it was a draw after 2. I think there should be a more clear way of deciding who advances

Predictions: 9 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 525 Points   |   Tied for 41st with 6 others

Taylor vs. Curtis
Louis Taylor, KO/TKO, R3
Chris Curtis is probably one of the most overrated fighters among fans, and I think Taylor is going to expose that. Don't get me wrong, Curtis is a good fighter, but he's not ******* God. I think he gets slept just like Abus.


Harrison vs. Khautova
Kayla Harrison, SUB, R1
This a softball early for Harrison, she's going to do what she does and get that arm.

Kaufman vs. Frier
Sarah Kaufman, DEC
A softball for Kaufman here as well, it's pretty easy to see who the PFL wants in the finals. It'll be interesting to see how Kaufman carries her weight around at 155 though, if she's slower then Harrison will undoubtedly tap that ass.

Magomedkerimov vs. Howard
Magomed Magomedkerimov, DEC
John Howard honestly has a lot more left in the tank than people realize, he really should have fought Abus for the belt, but the ref made a **** call. That's not going to help him with wet blanket boi though, he's getting humped through 3.
