Babulaidze and Sebie clashed in the featured preliminary bout of the 2022 PFL Playoffs, held at Madison Square Garden in New York last night. It was just Babulaidze’s second professional fight and Sebie’s fifth.
After some frenetic grappling exchanges, the duo began trading heavy leather. Seeing that Sebie’s hand’s were lowered, Babulaidze dipped down and unleashed a blistering uppercut onto Sebie’s chin, sending him sprawling to the canvas.

Sebie, who competed in Greco-Roman wrestling at the 2016 Olympics, is now riding a two-fight win streak. His most recent defeat came against Ethan Hughes at Bellator 271. Sebie commenced his professional MMA career in 2021, winning his first three fights, which included a first-round TKO in the inaugural event of Jorge Masvidal’s Gamebred Fighting Championship.
