The 2024 PFL 2 main card opener ended in unusual fashion after a fighter’s hand was mutilated on a takedown. As Sadibou Sy planted his hand down on takedown from opponent Josh Silveira , gravity took its toll on his thumb, which bent awkwardly under the weight of his body. Sy (16-8-2) waved to referee Marc Goddard, as a confused Silveira (13-2) laid on top of him. The signal marked the end of the fight at 1:14 of Round 1.

Why 2022 PFL welterweight champ Sadibou Sy moved to light heavyweight for upcoming season

BAD MMA News — Thu, 28 Mar 2024 22:46:35 +0000

LAS VEGAS – Sadibou Sy cashed a $1 millon prize for winning the PFL welterweight championship in 2022. This year, he will hunt for another seven-figure payday in a much heavier division. For Sy (16-7-2), a 37-year-old, 6-foot-3 fighter, making 170 pounds was not easy. Having to complete that weight cut four times in seven months due to the PFL’s regular and postseason schedule made things that much worse. Even though Sy reached the end goal in 2022 by winning the championship and nearly went back-to-back in 2023, he will not put his body through that process again in 2024 as he jumps to the light heavyweight division.
