"The World Tournament wraps up on Thursday at PFL Hollywood, with the middleweight, light heavyweight, and heavyweight divisions set to crown a tournament champ."
"In a battle of former Bellator stars, Fabian Edwards and Dalton Rosta headlined the card, with Edwards looking to work his way back to a title shot. He'd come up short against Johnny Eblen for the Bellator title (now the PFL Champions Series belt) late last year; since then, Costello Van Steenis had dethroned Elblen. Rosta, meanwhile, had avenged the only loss of his pro career earlier in the tournament."
"At heavyweight, Alexander Romanov had landed in the World Tournament final after being unable to continue due to a low blow in his semifinal bout. An odd quirk of the rules saw the judges make the call regardless; he was set to take on Oleg Popov."
