The PFL 7 mixed martial arts event for the 2022 season of the Professional Fighters League is scheduled to be held on August 5, 2022, at the Hulu Theater in New York City, New York, United States. This event marks the start of the playoffs for the Light Heavyweight and Lightweight divisions.[1][2][3]

Background

This event will feature the semifinal bouts of the Light Heavyweight and Lightweight playoffs.

Rob Wilkinson and Delan Monte will face each other in the Light Heavyweight division. Wilkinson made his third appearance with PFL cage, going 2-0 in the regular season with a first and second round stoppages. Monte was 1-1 during the regular season in 2022. The other side of the bracket was to see two former UFC veterans, Antônio Carlos Júnior and Omari Akhmedov, face off against each other.[3] However, Antonio suffered an ACL injury requiring surgery, sidelining him for the rest of the year and he was replaced by Josh Silveira for the playoffs.[4]

The Lightweight bracket sees former UFC Champion Anthony Pettis take on UFC vet Stevie Ray while Olivier Aubin-Mercier and Alex Martinez face off in the other lightweight semifinal.[3]
