Larissa Pacheco shocks Kayla Harrison in upset at PFL World Championship

Ray took Aubin-Mercier's back and logged plenty of ground control time until the final minute when the "Canadian Gangster" powered through and brought the fight back up on the feet. Moments after, Aubin-Mercier spotted a lapse in Ray's guard and blasted him with a right hand across the jaw. The shot knocked Ray out on his feet and his limp body crashed to the canvas. What a way to clinch a championship and cash in on $1 million!

Aubin-Mercier is now 6-0 in the PFL.

Olivier Aubin-Mercier (16-5) vs. Stevie Ray (25-10) is on deck.

After five rounds, all three judges score it 49-46 in favor of Sadibou Sy. The head kick that he launched and landed in the first round was probably the most significant shot of the entire fight. I would have given him the slightest edge as well despite the hesitancy to engage from both. Still, the performance was good enough to get the unanimous nod.

This New York City crowd serenades Sy and Taylor with "this is boring" chants and boos and you can't really blame them. This was about as low action of a world championship MMA fight that you'll ever see. Let's see how judges score this as neither man showed the urgency to take this one.

You'd never know that this bout was for the welterweight world title and $1 million by looking at the action. Both fighters aren't committing to engaging and this fight remains a low-action bout over the third and fourth rounds. There's got to be an uptick of urgency in this fifth and final round!

Boos beginning to rain down on Sy and Taylor for being overly tentative although Taylor briefly gives the crowd something to buzz over by launching a head kick in the closing seconds of the frame.

Although both fighters were being cautious over large stretches of the opening round, Sy did put Taylor on painful notice of his kicks. He deposited thunderous leg kicks and connected on a big head kick as well.

"The Swedish Denzel" Sadibou Sy (12-6-2, 1 No Contest) vs. Dilano "The Postman" Taylor (10-2), with the winner wrapping the welterweight title around his waist and becoming a cool $1 million richer, is moments away.

Wilkinson basically introduced Akhmedov to hell's trenches during a hellacious second round in which he bloodied the Dagestani fighter's face and dropped him after the bell with a knee. The ref took a closer look and could have stopped it right then and there before the knee. That's how much damage Akhmedov was taking.

After cageside physicians and the ref took a closer look, they decided that Akhmedov took enough punishment and waved off the fight. Dominating performance from Wilkinson who becomes the light heavyweight world champion and gets to cash the first $1 million check of the night.

Wilkinson bringing the thunder in the opening round as he floored Ahkmedov a few times, with solid punches and later with a kick during the waning seconds. Impressive striking all around from Wilkinson.

The first championship bout of the night begins with the light heavyweight crown at stake with Wilkinson (16-2-0) from Australia up against Akhmedov (24-7-1) representing Dagestan.

Aside from his rhyming skills, Wiz is actually quite the MMA fighter himself, training in the arts regularly.
