The PFL points system is based on results of the match. The winner of a fight receives 3 points. If the fight ends in a draw, both fighters will receive 1 point. The bonus for winning a fight in the first, second, or third round is 3 points, 2 points, and 1 point respectively. The bonus for winning in the third round requires a fight be stopped before 4:59 of the third round. No bonus point will be awarded if a fighter wins via decision. For example, if a fighter wins a fight in the first round, then the fighter will receive 6 total points. A decision win will result in three total points. If a fighter misses weight, the opponent (should they comply with weight limits) will receive 3 points due to a walkover victory, regardless of winning or losing the bout; if the non-offending fighter subsequently wins with a stoppage, all bonus points will be awarded.<ref>{{cite web |title=Rules and Regulations |url=http://www.pflmma.com/rules-regulations/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180808170826/http://www.pflmma.com/rules-regulations/ |archive-date=2018-08-08 |access-date=2019-04-28 |publisher=PFL}}</ref>
