Palmer was supposed to face Gadzhi Rabadanov, but Rabadanov missed weight so in steps Palmer's former nemesis, Alexandre Almeida. They're 1-1 against one another.

Its kind how scary how much better this card is than last weeks one.

Its kind how scary how much better this card is than last weeks one.

These two divisions are the best PFL divisions by a long way, I think a good 70% of these dudes are UFC quality.

Andre Harrison is still really fucking boring though, hope he loses.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

I have lost interest in PFL. It's boring watching the same twenty fighters week after week. I may tune in to try and salvage how i feel about it.

when was this change made? I can't find him in in any weigh in results so i'm guessing they pulled the fight even before attempting to weigh in because he was heavy as shit?
