Atsas and Jennerman opened the preliminary card with a competitive matchup. Jennerman brought extensive professional experience, while Atsas looked to make an impression in his PFL appearance.
Both fighters completed the scheduled three rounds. Atsas earned the judges’ decision by taking two rounds on each official’s card.
The result was unanimous, not split, and no stoppage occurred. The official records list the contest as a welterweight bout.The close scorecards reflect a bout in which small moments mattered. A 29–28 verdict on all three cards means each judge found enough in two rounds to separate Atsas from Jennerman, but none scored it as a wide margin. The decision therefore belongs in a recap of competitive preliminaries rather than as a dominant performance.
