Peru’s Jesus Pinedo said his pressure would be too much for Adam Borics to handle, and he was right.

In the co-feature of 2025 PFL World Tournament 1 at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando, Fla., Pinedo (24-6-1) made quick work of a very durable Adam Borics, finishing the fight by TKO at 3:43 in Round 1.

Borics (19-3) provided some resistance initially, but Pinedo’s forward pressure became overwhelming as he blitzed forward with punches. During the barrage, Pinedo clipped Borics, sending him to the canvas. From there, Pinedo unloaded follow-up punches until the referee stopped the fight. Borics protested the stoppage, but the decision was already made.

With the win, Pinedo advances in the featherweight tournament to face Gabriel Braga, who finished Frederik Durpas earlier on the card. It will be the third time the pair has met inside the cage; Braga won the first meeting by split decision to start the 2023 season, but Pinedo won the rematch in the championship by third round TKO.

Pinedo, the 2023 PFL featherweight champion, has now won four straight fights, all by stoppage.
