PFL 9 results: Two more $1 million finals set with Magalhaes-O’Connell, Schulte-Magomedov

BAD MMA News — Sun, 14 Oct 2018 04:23:16 +0000

Vinny Magalhaes (18-9) scored his fourth first-round stoppage under the PFL banner – and his second kimura of the night – punching his ticket to the $1 million light heavyweight championship fight of the promotion’s inaugural season with a first-round stoppage of Bozigit Ataev (19-3). The light heavyweight semifinal served as the main event of Saturday’s PFL 9 event, which aired on NBCSN from Long Beach Arena in Long Beach, Calif. Magalhaes wasted little time moving forward, throwing a punch and kick before reaching down to grab the legs, moving into the clinch. Magalhaes then willingly went to the floor, looking to lock up a triangle choke. Ataev was able to pull free, driving a few nasty hammerfists into his opponent’s head, but Magalhaes rolled and turned, scrambling to top position and looking to work from the dominant spot. With his position established, Magalhaes slipped around to side control and then north-south, then turning to the kimura, stepping over the head and cranking on the right arm until Ataev was forced to tap in rapid fashion at the 1:58 mark of the first.
