HOLLYWOOD, Fla. – The PFL 9 card consists of the final four semifinal fights of the playoffs. The Men’s Featherweight and Men’s Light Heavyweight title matchups will be decided.
Brendan Loughnane vs. Movlid Khaybulaev
Brendan Loughnane and Movlid Khaybulaev will headline the fight-filled night. Despite Loughnane earning the top seed in the regular season, USA online sportsbooks list Khaybulaev as the favorite.
Loughnane vs. Khaybulaev Moneyline Odds
- Brendan Loughnane +110
- Movlid Khaybulaev -140
Loughnane would be the first No. 1 seed to lose, but Khaybulaev is undefeated. There’s a fair case to be made that these are the two best Featherweights in the PFL and that the winner of this match will likely go on to win the Championship in their next fight.
Bubba Jenkins vs. Chris Wade
Bubba Jenkins is a former two-time All-American collegiate wrestler while Chris Wade is a wrestler with kickboxing experience. Wade has been more of a grinder in his MMA career as 13 of his 19 wins have come by way of decision and Jenkins works more towards a finish, having ended nine of his 16 wins before the final bell.
Those betting on the PFL will find Jenkins as the biggest favorite next to any semifinal competitor left.
Jenkins vs. Wade Moneyline Odds

Antonio Carlos Junior vs. Emiliano Sordi
Antonio Carlos Junior may be the most famous name on the card, as he was a member of the UFC for over five years. He has a notable win over Marvin Vettori and has also fought athletes like Uriah Hall and Brad Tavares. He’ll enter the ring as the second-biggest favorite on the main card.
Carlos Junior vs. Sordi Moneyline Odds
- Antonio Carlos Junior -180
- Emiliano Sordi +140
Emiliano Sordi is respectable, but he has never faced someone with this kind of talent. Sports betting sites may actually have undervalued the favorite in this fight.
Cezar Ferreira vs. Marthin Hamlet
Cezar Ferreira fought in the UFC for over six years but was never able to get to a championship level. He has fought some notable names like that of Thiago Santos, Jorge Masvidal, Anthony Smith, Jack Hermansson, and Marvin Vettori. Despite his experience, he remains an underdog next to Marthin Hamlet.
Ferreira vs. Hamlet Moneyline Odds
- Cezar Ferreira +120
- Marthin Hamlet -155
If there is an underdog to take in any of these semifinal matchups, it’s probably this one. Talent is important in MMA, but experience can be the ultimate equalizer. In this bout, Ferreira might have the edge in both.
