PFL World Tournament 8 – Thad Jean vs Logan Storley – Full Fight Replay Available Today

Thad Jean and Logan Storley headlined PFL World Tournament 8 on August 1, 2025, at Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall in a welterweight final that promised a clash between striking and elite wrestling. Jean, undefeated at 10–0 coming in, carried a reputation for fast hands and dangerous counters, while Storley, a former Bellator interim champion with an 18–3 record, was expected to dictate the fight with pressure and relentless takedowns. The stakes were high with a world title and tournament prize on the line.

The first two rounds set the tone for Jean’s approach as he showed outstanding takedown defense and sharp timing. Early in the fight, he stuffed multiple shots from Storley, landed a flying knee that caught him flush, and even managed to briefly take top position after a scramble. Storley continued pressing forward but was repeatedly forced to pay with stiff jabs, front kicks, and clean counters as Jean found openings.

By the third and fourth rounds, Storley started to have moments of success with his wrestling, grounding Jean and keeping him up against the cage for extended periods. Jean, however, refused to be held down, consistently finding ways to return to his feet and immediately answering with crisp strikes whenever space opened. Storley’s grappling limited the damage he absorbed, but he couldn’t keep Jean pinned long enough to slow his rhythm.

After five intense rounds, the judges scored the fight unanimously for Thad Jean, with tallies of 49–46, 49–46, and 48–47. The victory pushed Jean’s perfect record to 11–0 and earned him the PFL welterweight title along with the tournament championship prize. Storley, now 18–4, showed grit but was ultimately outworked by Jean’s takedown defense, scrambling ability, and striking volume. It was a breakout moment for Jean, marking his arrival as one of the PFL’s new stars.
