PFL 3 Results: Kayla Harrison, Anthony Pettis, Rory MacDonald Roll

Kayla Harrison

Kayla Harrison showed why she is the best female fighter in the PFL.

Harrison controlled Marina Mokhnatkina, earning a decision victory in the main event of PFL 3 Friday night. The main card aired live on ESPN2 and ESPN+.

A two-time champion, Harrison was pushed to the distance for just the third time in her 13-fight career.

In the co-main event, Ray Cooper III was bested by Carlos Leal. Cooper, the defending welterweight champion, missed weight for the bout.

Former champions Anthony Pettis and Rory MacDonald both had strong season openers. Pettis submitted Myles Price with a triangle choke, while MacDonald finished Brett Cooper with a rear-naked choke.

Larissa Pacheco opened the main card with a finish of Zamzagul Fayzallanova.

On the prelims, Dilano Taylor, Genah Fabian, Sadibou Sy, Jarrah Al Silawi, Olena Kolesnyk and Martina Jindrova scored wins.

Fabian, though, had her bout in the standings declared for Julia Budd after Fabian missed weight.
