PFL 5 (2024)

The PFL 5 mixed martial arts event for the 2024 season of the Professional Fighters League was held on June 21, 2024, at the Jon M. Huntsman Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. This marked the fifth regular-season event of the tournament and included fights in the Lightweight and Light Heavyweight divisions.

Background
This event marked the organization's first visit to Salt Lake City and Utah state.

A lightweight bout between Clay Collard and former Cage Warriors Featherweight Champion Mads Burnell headlined the event.

A light heavyweight bout between Laurynas Urbonavicius and Karl Albrektsson was scheduled for this event. However, Urbonavicius pulled out for unknown reason and was replaced by former KSW Light Heavyweight Champion Ibragim Chuzhigaev. In turn, Chuzhigaev pulled out and was replaced by The Ultimate Fighter: Team Joanna vs. Team Cláudia light heavyweight winner Andrew Sanchez. Subsequently, Sanchez stepped in to face 2022 PFL welterweight winner Sadibou Sy after Tom Breese withdrew at the last minute and the bout against Albrektsson was cancelled.

At the weigh-ins, Solomon Renfro came in at 156.4 lbs, 0.4 pounds over the lightweight limit. He was fined a percent of his purse and given a point deduction in the standings.

Standings after event
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.
