The inaugural season of the Professional Fighters League continues its playoffs tonight at PFL 10.
The event takes place at St. Elizabeths East Entertainment and Sports Arena in Washington D.C.. The main card airs on NBCSN following prelims on Facebook Watch, but you can follow along with live results here on MMAjunkie.
The PFL debuted earlier this year with a regular season that had fighters competing twice – and earning points to try to qualify for the postseason. Fighters in each of six weight classes then could make their way into eight-man fields, and the winner of each division will get $1 million guaranteed.
At PFL 10, the playoffs get underway in the welterweight and middleweight divisions. After the first four fights in each weight class, the winners then will have to fight a second time in the semifinals to make it to the finals, which will take place on New Year’s Eve in New York City.

Bojan Velickovic suffered a tough loss to Abukar Nurmagomedov in the welterweight quarterfinals. The fight ended in a draw, but Nurmagomedov was declared the winner after the judges scored the first round in his favor.
It was all for nothing, though, as Nurmagomedov is unable to continue on following his victory. As a result, Velickovic has been inserted back into the tournament and will meet Magomed Magomedkerimov in the semifinals later tonight.
PFL 10 results include:
MAIN CARD (NBCSN, 9 p.m. ET)
PRELIMINARY CARD (Facebook, 7:15 p.m. ET)
