Gadzhi Rabadanov Dominates at 2025 PFL World Tournament 3
Gadzhi Rabadanov continues to showcase his dominance in the octagon, with his latest victim being former UFC fighter Marc Diakiese at the 2025 PFL World Tournament 3. Rabadanov knocked out Diakiese just 32 seconds into the fight with a flurry of powerful punches, solidifying his spot in the lightweight quarterfinal.
The finishing sequence was a display of Rabadanov’s skill and power, as he capitalized on a Diakiese kick to deliver devastating blows that left his opponent unconscious on the canvas.
Next up for Rabadanov is a showdown with Jay Jay Wilson in the tournament semifinal, a rematch from their previous bout in March 2022 where Rabadanov emerged victorious with a unanimous decision.
Rabadanov, under the guidance of Khabib Nurmagomedov, has been on a tear with 11 consecutive wins, including a PFL lightweight championship in 2024. His recent knockout victories over top contenders like Brent Primus solidify his status as a force to be reckoned with in the lightweight division.
On the other end, Marc Diakiese, a seasoned UFC veteran, suffered his first defeat since leaving the promotion in 2024. Despite a brief hiatus, Diakiese returned to the cage with determination, only to be stopped by Rabadanov’s relentless attack.
