The PFL has six weight classes, each with 10 fighters competing twice apiece during the regular season. The top four point earners in each division -- heavyweight, light heavyweight, welterweight, lightweight, featherweight and women's flyweight -- reach the playoffs. Winning two playoff fights will earn one fighter in each of those six divisions the season's PFL championship -- and a $1 million payday.

How fighters earn their way to the playoffs: A win is worth 3 points, a draw is worth 1 and a loss is worth zero. Fighters also can earn bonus points for a stoppage (knockout, submission, disqualification), based on the round. A first-round stoppage is worth 3 bonus points, a second-round stoppage 2 and a third-round stoppage 1. In the case of a tie in the standings, the fighter with faster finishes places higher.

Here are the standings as the season winds down:
