The 2023 PFL 10 has a great Light Heavyweight Championship on the night between Impa Kasanganay and Josh Silveira on Friday, November 24. Kasanganay is slightly favored to win with a moneyline of -170. 

Kasanganay has won his last five battles coming into this event. His most recent win was impressive, as it was a first round knockout over Marthin Hamlet back at PFL 7 in August earlier this year.

He has acquired 14 quality wins, which include three knockouts, four submissions, and seven decisions. In five of these victories, he has been able to end it in the first round. Out of three losses, two have come by knockout, showing him susceptible to these types of defeats.

“Tshilobo” has a handful of great battles, especially 2-2 in the UFC, 2-0 in Dana White’s Contender Series, and is currently 4-0 in the PFL. Plenty of these were against quality opponents, which shows how tough his schedule has been.

Kasanganay is currently the 52^nd-best light heavyweight fighter in global rankings. His recent win helped move him up a bit, making him a huge threat entering this battle.

Silveira has been victorious in his last three battles and is aiming for another. His latest success was a first round TKO against Ty Flores back at PFL 7 this year. This also marked his third straight win in 2023.

He has recorded 12 wins so far, consisting of five knockouts, six submissions, and one decision. He has turned nine of his 12 triumphs into a first round finish and only has one loss by decision.

“Coninha” has gone 5-0 in the Legacy Fighting Alliance and is currently 5-1 in the PFL. He has battled quality opponents throughout the PFL, especially winning against Hamlet too.

Silveira is currently ranked as the 42^nd-best light heavyweight fighter in the world. He needs to find a way to earn this belt against an opponent that has excellent momentum.

MyBookie offers the latest odds for this matchup, which shows that Impa Kasanganay is slightly favored to win. Both fighters stack up well and this should be an entertaining matchup with a lot of striking.

Silveira will be a tough matchup since he is aggressive at ending fights early. With his only loss being by decision, he has shown that he is not yet susceptible to knockouts or submissions. With that being said, Kasanganay has been an animal lately with how he has taken care of his opponents and appears to be the best version of himself.
