The bout saw Cyborg showcase her trademark striking and grappling prowess. Pacheco, a formidable opponent in her own right, came into the fight with the intention of becoming the PFL Super Fight Series champion. However, Cyborg's experience and skill proved to be too much for the Brazilian fighter.

From the opening bell, Cyborg controlled the pace of the fight, landing clean punches and kicks with precision.

The former UFC Champion's footwork was exceptional, making it difficult for Pacheco to close the distance and land significant strikes.

In the second round, Cyborg began to mix up her attacks, incorporating takedowns and clinch work into her arsenal. Pacheco struggled to defend against Cyborg's grappling, and the Brazilian found herself on the canvas several times. Cyborg's ground-and-pound was relentless, and she controlled the position, preventing Pacheco from escaping.

As the fight progressed, Cyborg's dominance became increasingly evident. She continued to land strikes at will, while Pacheco's output diminished. The Brazilian fighter was visibly frustrated, unable to find a rhythm against the championship-caliber opponent.

In the final round, Cyborg maintained her high-paced assault, landing a flurry of punches and kicks. Pacheco attempted to mount a late comeback, but it was too little, too late. The judges' decision was unanimous in favor of Cyborg, who was awarded the PFL Super Fight Series Women's Featherweight Championship belt.
