Larissa Pacheco is back in another PFL women’s lightweight final.
The veteran fighter picked up a solid win Saturday at 2022 PFL Playoffs 3 in London to advance to the final in November. Pacheco (18-4) stopped Olena Kolesnyk by first-round TKO, with the stoppage coming a little more than two minutes into the first round.
It was a dominant and quick finish by Pacheco. From the very beginning, Pacheco swarmed Kolesnyk and landed heavy shots until Kolesnyk collapsed to the canvas.

This is the second time the Brazilian finds herself in a final as she previously competed against Kayla Harrison in 2019 for that year’s title. She lost the bout by unanimous decision. Pacheco is 7-2 under the PFL banner, with both losses coming against Harrison.
