Carlos Condit over Rory MacDonald..
Ben Rothwell over Gilbert Yvel..
Paulo Thiago over Martin Kampmann..
*Mirko CroCop over Pat Barry..

A lot of people were expecting this to be the best UFC show ever, and the fight card certainly had some great match-ups.

Ryo Chonan vs. Brad Blackburn – Brad Blackburn won via decision

Dan Evensen vs. Pat Barry – Pat Barry won via TKO from kicks to the leg.
