Key takeaways
AJ McKee beat Salamat Isbulaev by unanimous decision after three rounds in the main event of PFL San Diego at the Pechanga Arena in San Diego. In the co-main event, Liz Carmouche beat Viviane Araújo by submission at 2:07 of round two at women's flyweight.
Across the nine bouts that produced a result, two ended by knockout, five by submission and two on the judges' scorecards — seven stoppages in nine fights. Every decision was unanimous: not one result divided the judges.
The quickest finish belonged to Cobey Fehr, who stopped Daniel Bzdigian at 2:00 of round one, and three of the seven finishes came inside the opening round. The longest was Shannon Clark's knockout of Ilara Joanne, 11 minutes and 43 seconds in. End to end, the nine fights filled one hour and 15 minutes of cage time.
The preliminary card out-finished the main card: five of its five results came early, against two of the four above it. Khasan Magomedsharipov (submission, round one), Jena Bishop (submission, round one) and Sarvarjon Khamidov (submission, round two) all closed before the judges were needed.
Five weight classes were used, women's flyweight most often with three bouts.
