Friday night will be a night Larissa Pacheco won’t forget anytime soon.
In the main event of the PFL World Championship fight card, Pacheco pulled off one of the biggest upsets in quite some time as she earned a unanimous decision against the previously undefeated Kayla Harrison to win the women’s lightweight season title, along with the $1 million grand prize.
The fight was back-and-forth throughout the five round battle, but in the end, Pacheco was able to exact some revenge after dropping two bouts to Harrison in 2019.
Here’s what fighters had to say bout Kayla Harrison vs. Larissa Pacheco and the PFL World Championship 2022 main card on Friday at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Kayla Harrison vs. Larissa Pacheco
Damn Pacheco came to fight. She wins R2 and showed some great TD defense.

That’s a weird Round to score. Kayla on type the entire round but Larissa had a near submission and landed harder shots for sure.

Damn this fight is freaking awesome! Most likely score is 38-38 right now. I could see 3-1 for Pacheco also. These ladies are freaking battling.

Wow. Both of them are super impressive. I don’t remember pancheco being this good though ! Big improvements ?
— Chris Weidman (@chrisweidman) November 26, 2022
Pacheco 48-47 what a huge upset!!! Her hammerfists off her back were so hard. I’d be shocked to see a decision go Harrison’s way. @PFLMMA
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
What do you suppose the reasoning for pretending this is a hard decision is? There is nothing even slightly hard about who won this fight.
— Chael Sonnen (@ChaelSonnen) November 26, 2022
Panchecos wrestling defense was impressive.
— Chris Weidman (@chrisweidman) November 26, 2022
Wow what a fight! Congrats to both ladies especially the new champion Larissa Pacheco! 5 rounds on this pace wow respect ✊ #PFLWorldChampionship

Bubba J 10-9 first round. Bubba landed some really big punches. Those low kicks are gonna take their toll if he doesn’t find an answer.
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
Loughnane with a great R2 and those low kicks are starting to be a problem.
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
Damn this fight is fun, Bubba really starting to slow down. The effects of the low leg kicks are showing for sure.

I think it is 29-28 Budd but I could see the judges doing the other way.
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
Damn, Stevie Ray had a good 2nd round but gets put out with 1 shot by OAM
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
Sy is way too confident he is winning. Likely he is, but I would never trust the judges.
— Funky (@Benaskren) November 26, 2022
You can’t even tell these guys are fighting for a million.
— Max Griffin (@MaxPainGriffin) November 26, 2022
If you just listen to @PFLMMA commentary then this fight is a 50-45 fight smh ♂️

Akhmedov chin is absurd!!! How is he still on his feet
