Lightweight bout: Jim Miller vs. Kamal Shalorus
Miller defeated Shalorus via TKO (punches) at 2:15 of round 3
Didnt know much about Shalorus but it was a decent fight, Miller taking a 3rd round KO win which is allways cool to see 3rd round KOs.
Heavyweight bout: Mirko Filipović vs. Brendan Schaub
Schaub defeated Filipović via TKO (punch) at 3:44 of round 3
Had to back Schaub after Cro-Cops last fight with Mir and the fact hes getting near the end of his career but it was a decent fight and Schaub scored a 3rd round KO which wouldnt be easy when your up against a MMA legend like Cro-Cop.
Middleweight bout: Nate Marquardt vs.Dan Miller
Marquardt defeated Miller via unanimous decision (30–27, 30–27, 30–27)
Was backing Marquardt simply because hes a beast, loved this fight, had some mean exchanges and went the full distance with Marquardt taking the win with a Unan decision.
Bantamweight bout: Urijah Faber vs. Eddie Wineland
Faber defeated Wineland by unanimous decision (29–28, 29–28, 29–28)
Backed the cali kid because he allways puts on a good fight, this fight was pretty good, both fighters are mentally fast with there strikes. Faber walking away with the unan decision in his UFC debut.
Light Heavyweight Championship bout: Maurício Rua (c) vs. Jon Jones
Jones defeated Rua by TKO (strikes) at 2:37 of round 3 to become the new UFC Light Heavyweight Champion.
Was backing Shogun to win but didnt think he would get owned that hard on the ground, Jones is crazy talented and will definitely hold onto the title for a long time, which the light heavy division doesnt see all that often. Jones > Evans.
Going to be hitting this live tomorrow.
