Key takeaways
Mitch McKee beat Sergio Pettis by unanimous decision after three rounds in the main event of PFL Chicago at the Wintrust Arena in Chicago. The co-main event also went to the scorecards: Renat Khavalov beat Raufeon Stots after three rounds at bantamweight.
Across the ten bouts that produced a result, three ended by knockout, two by submission and five on the judges' scorecards — five stoppages in ten fights. Every decision was unanimous: not one result divided the judges.
The quickest finish belonged to Biaggio Ali Walsh, who stopped Dash Harris after 46 seconds, and three of the five finishes came inside the opening round. The longest was Paulina Wisniewska's knockout of Kana Watanabe, 8 minutes and 15 seconds in. End to end, the ten fights filled one hour and 36 minutes of cage time.
The preliminary card out-finished the main card: five of its six results came early, against no of the four above it. Jena Bishop (submission, round one), Omar El Dafrawy (knockout, round one) and Paulina Wisniewska (knockout, round two) all closed before the judges were needed.
Six weight classes were used, women's flyweight most often with three bouts.
