As a result, Chris Wade will get a spot in the postseason and square off against Braga on Aug. 4.
A reason for Khaybulaevâs exit was not given. A PFL champion in 2021, Khaybulaev rolled through the 2023 regular season with victories over Ryoji Kudo and Tyler Diamond. The 32-year-old Dagestani is unbeaten in 23 professional outings and has won seven straight bouts since a no contest against Daniel Pineda in 2019.
Wade has made the PFL playoffs on four…
