Middleweight - Jason "Red Eye" Craft knocked out Gary "Take That" Barlow with a kick and punches at 3:07 in the first round.
Barlow looked like he was hell bent on taking the fight to the ground. In under a minute, he attempted 4 takedowns with only one being successful. He then wokedhard on the ground trying to get what he wanted: a sumbission. But then Craft had enough and got things back to the feet. Barlow tried his best to take the fight back to the ground, but it was to no avail. Craft just lit up Barlow, and destroyes him grom the ground up with leg kicks. A head kick sealed the deal.
Welterweight - Jake Shields submitted Daniel Alkofer a guillotine choke at 3:57 in the first round.
Alkofer started off looking like he was going to just have his way. He was landing punches and stopping the takedowns. He even cut Jake open with an early punch. Daniel just went for it on the feet, but a missed head kick left enough of an opening for Shields to take things down into the mount. After that, he got to work with some submission attempts. A nice gillotine from the mount sealed his fate.
Light Heavyweight - "Lone Star" Dallas MacMillian knocked out Tap Out with a knee at 1:14 in round 2.
MacMillian did what he could on the feet, and it looked like it was WAY more than enough. At the distance, he was landing occasionally. But then he clinched things up, and he just got off. Elbows and knees were landing at will. Tap Out squeezed out of the clinch, and took things down to the ground. But that was not to last long. MacMillian got up and started getting back to work until the round ended. The second round had Out rocked early with a nice cross. MacMillian brought it back to the clinch and landed knees like there was no tomorrow. And it looks like there's a fair chance there will be no tomorrow for Tap Out, since he'll be spending some time recovering from some painful knees.
Co-Main - Light Heavyweight - Jake the Snake knocked out Abdi Wali Mohammed with strikes at 2:08 in round 2.
Mohammed came in knowing he had a chance to win against a Hall of Famer. He went to work on Jake's legs early and often. With his legs beat down, it left him open to punches. The Snake went for the punches, but it was Mohammed who was elusive as a snake. Or maybe it was just that The Snake's legs were destroyed. The second round started and Mohammed was landing just as well as the first round. The Snake then landed an amazing combo that dropped him, rocked him, and split his face open. Mohammed tried to hold on, but it was no use. The Snake took advantage of his opening, and jumped on him. He landed an uppercut flush on and took Mohammed out.
Main Event - Lightweight - Samual "Stoneface" Vimes knocked out "The Burning Bush" Garrett Hudson with strikes at 3:55 in round 2.
This was no fight you watched. What you all saw was an assault. People go to jail for less than what Vimes did to Hudson. At the distance, Vimes did pretty well for himself. But once they clinched up, there was a fire lit from underneath him. He was landing body and head shots as though it we his job... Mostly because it WAS his job. Hudson walked out of that round, but the second round picked up immediately where the previous one left off: in the clinch with Vimes throwing all sorts of punches. A few minutes of getting punched in the face, Hudson finally dropped down and the ref had seen enough. Another fine knock out from Vimes!
