Former interim Bellator MMA heavyweight champion Valentin Moldavsky walked away with six points in the heavyweight standings after recording an emphatic Round 1 technical knockout against 2022 PFL heavyweight champion Ante Delija; Oleg Popov secured five points after clinching a Round 2 TKO over Steve Mowry; Daniel James earned five points in the standings after scoring a come-from-behind Round 1 victory against Marcelo Golm but lost a point due to failing on the scale; Denis Goltsov racked up four points on the board after stopping Linton Vassell in the third frame; Sergey Bilostenniy walked away with three points after grinding his way to a unanimous decision win against Blagoy Ivanov.

Meanwhile, women’s flyweight competitors Dakota Ditcheva, Taila Santos, and Jena Bishop all bagged the maximum six points after successfully securing Round 1 finishes against their opponents. Additionally, Liz Carmouche and Kana Watanabe earned three points each thanks to their unanimous decision victories against Juliana Velasquez and Shanna Young, respectively.
