Dustin Jacoby vs. Clifford Starks
Round 1
The Octagon newcomers are taking their time, feeling one another out in the opening minute with Starks in the center and Jacoby on the outside. Starks is throwing out more combinations, but it’s Jacoby who sticks his man first with a stiff straight right. Jacoby splits the guard of Starks with a left hand and Starks replies with a right hand over the top. Midway through the round, neither man has taken a clear advantage, as Jacoby continues to sidestep Starks’ punches and look for his own. Starks goes to the body with a right hand as the slow-paced round enters its last minute. With 30 seconds to go, Starks grabs a single-leg and plows Jacoby to the mat. Jacoby turns to his right side and immediately starts working on a kimura from the bottom, but time runs out before he can lock it up.
Chris Nelson scores the round 10-10
Mike Whitman scores the round 10-9 Starks

Round 2
Jacoby plugs Starks with three left straights in the first minute of the second frame. It’s moving at the same pace as the first, with Jacoby in the center this time. Jacoby grazes Starks with a turning kick, goes for a walk and slips an overhand right from his opponent. Starks is looking for the homerun shot, loading up on his right hand, but the taller Jacoby is aware of it and doing well to get out of the way. Starks closes the distance and ducks inside for another easy single-leg takedown. Jacoby quickly closes up his guard and ties up the arms of Starks to negate any strikes. Starks throws a few half-hearted elbows as he presses his face to Jacoby’s chest, then connects more soundly with a left hand. Starks puts a couple short right hands on the body and another flurry of lefts on Jacoby’s face before the round ends.

Round 3
Jacoby is still looking to box as the final frame begins, but his work rate is slowing and Starks is finding more success with his left hand counterpunches. With just over three minutes to go, Starks gets another easy takedown. This time, Jacoby keeps his guard a bit more active, angling for escape and digging his heel into Starks’ body, but still doesn’t attempt any submissions. Starks gets to side control for a split second, then voluntarily returns to half-guard as Jacoby frames up a kimura on Starks’ left arm. Starks does well to defend until Jacoby gives it up with 45 seconds to go. Starks finishes off the fight in top position, unloading punches.

Chris Camozzi vs. Francis Carmont
Round 1
The middleweights trade leg kicks to open the bout, then Carmont goes to the body. Carmont gets a hold of Camozzi’s right leg and drags him to the canvas at the base of the cage. A nice left hand by Carmont has Camozzi scrambling to his feet, where he’s met by Carmont’s knee. Camozzi gets back up and reverses the position, putting Carmont’s back on the fence and looking for a trip. Carmont stays vertical and relaxed as Camozzi hugs and leans his weight on the Frenchman. Carmont drills a knee to Camozzi’s gut and steps out. They clinch up again and Carmont puts another pair of hard knees on Camozzi’s belly before going low to pick the ankle. Camozzi goes to a knee, pops up and takes a knee to the chest from the lanky Carmont. Down to the last 60 seconds of the round, Camozzi gets out of the clinch and walks Carmont down with punches. Camozzi tries a leaping knee of his own and shoves Carmont into the cage again. The American tries another single-leg, but Carmont keeps it on the feet.

Round 2
Carmont comes out striking for the second, but it’s not long before Camozzi has him clinched against the cage again. Camozzi goes low, can’t find a takedown and stands back up, where he’s drilled with a series of knees to the body and head. Carmont is keeping active with his back to the cage while Camozzi stalls out from the dominant position. Carmont grabs the Thai plum and lets loose with a few more knees which cause Camozzi to back out. Carmont walks him down, scores with another knee and puts Camozzi on the cage. Camozzi tries to escape and gives up his back standing. He tries to shake Carmont, but the Tristar Gym fighter lifts Camozzi into the air and slams him to the mat with authority. Carmont is standing above Camozzi, dodging upkicks and thumping Camozzi with punches. Camozzi tries to stand and is drilled by a right uppercut-left hook combo from Carmont that sends him to his back. Carmont tries to polish off his bloodied opponent, but Camozzi survives, even trying for a guillotine at the end of the round.

Round 3
Carmont has Camozzi rocked with another combination early in the round, but Camozzi just comes straight forward and clinches up. Carmont breaks off, socks his man with an uppercut, an elbow, then has a head kick blocked. Camozzi hugs Carmont and tries to trip him up, but can’t and instead settles for the familiar position, leaning on the cage. Referee Herb Dean threatens to split the inactive fighters up, but doesn’t get the chance before they disengage. Camozzi gets off a few outside leg kicks and sends a left hand down the pipe. He sprawls on a high double-leg from Carmont, but Carmont gets the takedown anyway and goes into Camozzi’s full guard with just under two minutes remaining. Carmont stands up and won’t allow Camozzi to his feet, slapping with a few kicks to Camozzi’s legs before finally stepping back. Camozzi charges and clinches, but not for long, as ref Dean breaks them quickly this time. Carmont lands a kick to the legs, one to the body, and he dodges a punching attack from Camozzi. With seconds to go, Carmont gets a waistlock and Camozzi tries for a last-ditch kimura, but it doesn’t come.

Ramsey Nijem vs. Danny Downes
Round 1
Nijem closes the distance on Downes and tries for a single-leg against the fence. The Roufusport fighter defends momentarily, but Nijem drags him down and is soon trying to take Downes’ back. Downes escapes the bad position and Nijem chases him with a solid flurry of punches. Nijem gets another takedown and drops punches from half-guard as Downes tries to pick the ankle and escape out the backdoor. Downes works back to his feet and puts his back on the cage, but it doesn’t keep him standing. Nijem gets another easy takedown, drops a few elbows and then knees Downes’ legs and thighs when he stands back up. Nijem takes Downes down one more time, hops on his back and locks up a rear-naked choke. Downes is resisting , so Nijem lets go and socks him in the head a few times. Nijem tries to slap on the choke again, and again Downes peels his hands off. The third time looks to be the charm for Nijem, but again Downes guts out the deep choke and escapes to his feet. Nijem hits another single leg, Downes gets up and Nijem gets him down again. Another RNC attempt from Nijem yields nothing, but he finishes the round on Downes’ back, punching at his head.

With Nijem back on top, Downes tries for a guillotine, then settles for restoring full guard. Downes looks to roll for a leglock with Nijem in side control, and Nijem uses the opportunity to hop into full mount. Downes gives up his back and Nijem slaps on the RNC again, but again cannot finish. Nijem goes back to full mount and gives up the position to try and take the back again. Instead, Downes works to his feet and Nijem sticks to his back there. Nijem tries to loosen Downes up for the RNC with a few more elbows, but the choke just won’t stick. The round ends with Downes locked in a body triangle, a large mouse sprouting beneath his left eye.

Round 3
Nijem has his first takedown attempt stifled, but the second one works. Downes is on his back again less than 40 seconds into the final frame and is being shoved into the cage after a minute. Nijem traps the right arm of Downes between his legs, gives it up and tries to take the back instead. He winds up in north-south position, elbowing at Downes’ head. Nijem hops on Downes’ back with three minutes left in the fight and sinks a single hook in, keeping his balance in the position as Downes tries to stand. Nijem keeps him on the floor and peppers with right hands; Downes is just hanging in there, not mounting any sort of offense in return. Nijem takes the back, locks up a tight body triangle and tries the RNC again. It doesn’t work, so Nijem postures up and drops punches on the turtling Downes as referee Josh Rosenthal hovers nearby. Downes survives to hear the final horn.

Round 1

Some more chopping kicks land on the inside of Marshall’s legs before Vera gets inside and clinches on the fence with one underhook. Marshall breaks off and rushes Vera with knees and a series of right hands, one of which appears to stun “The Truth.” Vera stays up, though, and slows the pace by muscling Marshall into the cage and driving knees into Marshall’s thighs. Referee Kim Winslow splits them up with a minute remaining and Vera gets off a few more strong leg kicks before the round expires.

Tyson Griffin vs. Bart Palaszewski
Round 1
Palaszewski flicks out a crisp leg kick on the much shorter Griffin, who answers in kind. Griffin stands low in the pocket, waiting to counterpunch on Palaszewski and connecting with a few. Palaszewski clips Griffin with a pair of hooks and Griffin stands back up, his back to the fence. Palaszewski chases him down and unloads with 10 or 12 hard punches. Griffin avoids a few of them by covering up, but drops his guard just long enough for a crushing right hook to find his face. Griffin crumbles to the mat, unconscious, and referee Steve Mazzagatti intervenes at 2:45 of the opening round.
Dennis Siver vs. Donald Cerrone
Round 1
Cerrone goes to the body of Siver with a kick early, and the German counters with a quick combination. Siver looks to keep the lanky “Cowboy” at range with a push kick, but Cerrone gets inside to put punches on anyway. A high kick has Siver on rubber legs and Cerrone tries to pounce, but Siver keeps his composure and rushes Cerrone into the fence. Siver seems to regain his wits as he throws knees at Cerrone’s head. Cerrone breaks away and Siver tags him with a pawing hook. Cerrone thuds a kick to Siver’s body, then drops him with another kick to the jaw. Siver is in dire straits this time as Cerrone leaps on his back and flattens him out, belly down. Cerrone sinks in the rear-naked choke and Siver taps the mat in submission at 2:22 of the first round.
Hatsu Hioki vs. George Roop
Round 1
Hioki goes to touch gloves, but Roop wants none of it and circles away. Both lanky featherweights are aiming high with leg kicks early, but it’s a right straight from Roop which becomes the first meaningful strike of the bout. Hioki fires off a solid combination before he catches an inside thigh kick on the cup. He takes a moment to recover and they’re back to business. Hioki uses a left jab to get inside and dig an underhook on Roop. He grapples with Roop along the fence, trying to trip the American but finding no success. Hioki throws a couple weak knees to Roop’s thighs, then lands a little stronger to the body. Hioki has underhooks and Roop uses both hands to push the Shooto champ’s face. Hioki sees the opportunity to turn the corner and take Roop’s back standing. Roop twists around to escape danger, then gets hurled to the canvas by Hioki with a big slam. Hioki lands in side control and tries to spin to the other side, and Roop regains full guard. Hioki catches a stiff elbow from the bottom and backs away from Roop, who scrambles to his feet. Roop is warned for grabbing Hioki’s shorts in the clinch. He chases Hioki down and lands a few punches in close quarters before the first frame ends.

He gets too close to Hioki, who wraps Roop up and trips him to the ground, landing in full mount. Hioki is riding high and hops off to side control on Roop’s left side. They’re in the middle of the cage with plenty of space for Hioki to work as he leans across, framing up a keylock. Hioki drives a few knees into Roop’s body before taking full mount again. Butterfly hooks now for Hioki, who stays flat on Roop and postures up to throw occasional punches. Roop nearly scoots out, but Hioki puts him back down and threatens with a headlock. Finally, with seconds left in the round, Roop shoves Hioki off and drills him in the face with a right upkick. Hioki wheels back and tries to dodge Roops punches for the few remaining seconds.

The featherweights pummel for position inside until Roop establishes the dominant position and scores with a few knees. He stomps Hioki’s foot, the only offense taking place at the last round’s midway point. Referee Josh Rosenthal asks them to work and then breaks them up. Roop, who’s now cut on his cheek, drive Hioki down and scoots him to the fence. Hioki throws up his legs, angling for an arm or a triangle. He catches Roop in the face with a foot and referee Rosenthal warns him to watch the upkicks. There’s little action in the final 30 seconds, with Roop throwing sporadic shots on top and trying to break the posture of Hioki, who ends avoiding damage on the bottom.

Curran ties up, trying to negate the space, while Jorgensen works to pass and lands a couple hard, short punches to the face. Jorgensen is having trouble passing and throwing strikes as Curran keeps tight and nearly sweeps to the top. Jorgensen backs out and then goes back to Curran’s open guard, 90 seconds left in the round. Curran barely gets to his feet before Jorgensen brings him straight back down. Referee Kim Winslow wants the bantamweights back up with 40 seconds left. Curran puts a left hand on Jorgensen and misses with another pair of winging punches.

Mirko Filipovic vs. Roy Nelson

When the bell rings, Filipovic circles actively away from Nelson, who ducks low and tries to get inside with overhand punches. After a minute, “Big Country” finds his opening and puts Cro Cop on his back. The Croatian closes up his guard and Nelson lays his forearm across Cro Cop’s throat. Nelson is posturing up, trying to extract his arms from Filipovic’s clutches to rain punches. Cro Cop creates space to get up and socks Nelson with a left hand, grazes with a high kick. Nelson lands his big right hand and Cro Cop backs up, then comes straight forward with a strong left uppercut. Cro Cop scores with a left uppercut and continues circling, pecking away as Nelson gives chase. Nelson connects with another right, eats a straight left.

Cro Cop scores with a high kick and shoves Nelson into the fence. The American reverses and trips Filipovic down, hopping quickly from half-guard to side control on Filipovic’s right side. Nelson leans across Filipovic’s head and arms, possibly looking for a crucifix or a kimura on the far arm. One minute left and Cro Cop is defending ably from the bottom, circling and staying out of trouble with Nelson on top. With 40 seconds left, Nelson gets his crucifix and lands 15 or 20 short left hands to the unprotected face of Cro Cop, who survives to see round three.

Nelson pounces and lands heavy punches from back mount until referee Steve Mazzagatti intervenes. The official time of the TKO stoppage is 1:30 of round three.
