Is Friday going to finally be Raush Manfio’s time?
Manfio (13-3), a longtime training partner of two-time PFL lightweight season winner Natan Schulte, has a chance to follow in his good friend’s foosteps when he takes on Clay Collard (20-8) in one of two lightweight semifinals at 2021 PFL Playoffs 1.
A win for Manfio would put him in the $1 million playoff final this fall against the winner of Friday’s second semifinal matchup between Alex Martinez (8-1) and Loik Radzhabov (14-3-1).
In the video above, go inside Manfio’s path to the semifinals at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The main card airs on ESPN2 following prelims on ESPN+.
