2021 PFL 2 weigh-in results: Alternate Askar Mozharov replaces Vinny Magalhaes

The weigh-ins are in the books for PFL’s second event of 2021, with light heavyweights and welterweights ready to kick off their season after hitting the scales at Wednesday’s official ceremony.

In the night’s main event, welterweights Rory MacDonald (21-6-1) and Curtis Millender (18-6) each made weight without issue, with MacDonald at 170.6 pounds and Millender at 171. In fact, all eight welterweights on the card made weight without issue.

The same was true at light heavyweight, as well – though with one major change. Ukranian light heavyweight Askar Mozharov (23-7) was called in as an alternate when 2018 PFL light heavyweight finalist Vinny Magalhaes (19-12) required medical attention during his weight cut and was forced to withdraw from the event.

Mozharov made weight and will face Jordan Young (11-1) at Thursday’s event, which airs on ESPN2 and streams on ESPN+ from Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J.
