Jason McLean vs. Kevin Roddy
Round 1
A decent, if not great showing as we start the first preliminary of the evening. The men touch gloves and both fighters exchange leg kicks. The Pellegrino MMA-trained Roddy looks to be the aggressor of the two in the early going going after McLean. Roddy misses on a right hook but follows up with a one-two that only does a little damage. McLean is doing very little to start this opening round. Roddy comes in for a combination and McLean counters, but again with very little punches on either side. A whole lot of nothing from this opening round as McLean seems to be struggling with Roddy's range. Roddy moves in on McLean, allowing McLean to connect with a one-two. Very little of significance in this opening round until a very late takedown by McLean puts Roddy into the fence. It could be enough to give McLean the round.

Round 2
Low kicks are exchanged again to start the round and Roddy continues to paw with his right. He finally follows up with a brief flurry before both fighters go back to circling. McLean is looking to time Roddy's movements and Pellegrino is urging his fighter to go after McLean in the corner. Roddy responds with more aggression but also clips McLean with a low blow, bringing a stop to the action. After a brief rest we get the restart in the action and McLean finally times Roddy the right way and comes in full force on his opponent with a big flurry taking the taller fighter down with his shots. The ensuing scramble sees Roddy get back up to his feet as McLean is unable to capitalize. With a minute to go in the round, McLean is on his horse looking to counter Roddy again. A couple of kicks fail to find their mark for Roddy at the end of the round that goes the way of McLean, 10-9.

Round 3
McLean tries to come in on Roddy to start the round and catches a right hook for his troubles. A takedown scores for McLean about a minute into the round, but little comes from it as Roddy gets back up. Roddy tries to turn the tables on McLean, and after a less than stellar looking takedown attempt gets McLean on his back up against the cage and in mount. McLean tries to maneuver his way into a better position underneath Roddy but the longer Roddy takes McLean's back with 90 seconds left to go in the round. McLean is trying to turn into Roddy while fighting off the rear-naked choke attempt and a body triangle. With less than 30 seconds to go McLean manages to turn all the way into Roddy but has to fight off an armbar attempt as the round closes.

Official scores: 29-28 (twice) and 28-29 in favor of McLean, who takes the split decision.

Anthony Leone vs. Josh LaBerge
Round 1
Referee Keith Peterson is in the cage for this featherweight contest. Laberge takes the inside and the men circle for a minute before LaBerge ties up. Leone pushes him into the fence and scores with a few knees inside before they disengage. They clinch again and trade knees, then Leone snaps off a hard low kick. He just misses with a spinning back fist. Leone really attacking the leg of LaBerge, who then drops Leone with a knee. Leone survives with a single-leg, but he’s now bleeding badly from his nose. He drags LaBerge down and gets to side control, bleeding all over LaBerge until the round ends.

In between rounds, the cageside physician has a look at Leone’s nose and deems him unfit to continue. Josh LaBerge gets the win via doctor stoppage after five minutes.

Don Carlo-Clauss vs. Sam Oropeza
Round 1
Keith Peterson returns to officiate this 170-pound bout. The southpaw Oropeza misses with a left high kick over the head of the shorter Carlo-Clauss. They clinch and Oropeza shoves his man into the fence. There’s a bit of inside fighting and trading of blocked knees before they split. Oropeza misses with the same close head kick, then another. With about 90 seconds left, Oropeza finally thuds the high kick off the head of Carlo-Clauss, who shoots in survival mode. Oropeza sprawls and spins around to Carlo-Clauss’ back. He lands a dozen or more unanswered punches to the turtling Carlo-Clauss before Peterson steps in to wave it off. The result is announced as a verbal submission due to strikes at the 4:10 mark.

Igor Gracie vs. John Salgado
Round 1
Kevin Mulhall is the ref for this welterweight bout. Salgado scores with a few punches over the low guard of Gracie. They tie up along the fence and Gracie lifts Salgado into the air before slamming him down and taking side control. Gracie hops onto Salgado’s back, locks up a body triangle and rolls onto his back. Gracie looking for the rear-naked choke but can’t get the forearm under the chin. Salgado slams his head backward into Gracie’s face and receives a warning from Mulhall. Salgado twists into the cage and tries to shake Gracie, but the body triangle is still in place. Salgado on his side now with Gracie on top using hammer fists. Gracie rolls to his back again with about two minutes left and gets back to hunting for the choke. Salgado is keeping his hands on Gracie’s to negate the choke, but he’s playing strictly defense. Salgado uses both of his hands to control Gracie’s right wrist. Salgado goes for a headlock in the last seconds, but Gracie gets into mount as the round ends.

Round 2
Salgado comes out with low and spinning kicks, trying to keep his distance as the second round opens, but Gracie soon plows him to the mat. Gracie pins him against the fence sitting and traps both of Salgado’s legs in a triangle. Salgado grabs for a guillotine, but Gracie hops into mount and tries to pin down Salgado’s left arm. Salgado gets the limb free, but Gracie is fully mounted and trying to flatten his man out with three minutes still to go. Body punches from the top, then Gracie postures up for a few to the face. Salgado spins out from the cage and slips loose, but Gracie gets right on his back. Salgado turns over and Gracie sinks in a deep arm-triangle choke. Salgado appears to consider tapping just before he goes unconscious. Ref Mulhall immediately steps in for the save at 3:04 of the second frame.

Marc Stevens vs. John Cholish
Round 1
Kevin Mulhall is back for this welterweight matchup, the final preliminary bout of the evening. Cholish catches Stevens leaning with a switch kick and a punch, then goes down into Stevens’ guard. Stevens gets loose and Cholish looks to have a guillotine for a moment, but Stevens slips out, gets to his feet and presses Cholish into the fence. Cholish reverses and seems to hurt Stevens with a flurry of knees to the midsection. They split and go back to head-hunting. Stevens changes levels for the takedown, but it’s Cholish who gets underhooks and winds up in side control, drilling knees to Stevens’ body. Cholish tries to step over and Stevens regains a deep half-guard. Stevens now gets full guard, hanging on underneath with 30 seconds left. Big punch from Cholish on top opens up a cut near Stevens’ eye before the end of the round.

Round 2
Both men looking energetic as the second frame begins. Cholish stuffs another Stevens takedown 30 seconds in and winds up in Stevens’ guard, raining down punches. Stevens throws up a triangle attempt which Cholish easily slips free of. From half-guard, Cholish scoots Stevens from the middle of the cage to the base of the fence. Cholish is posturing up and punching, but not keeping busy enough for ref Mulhall, who issues a confusing standup order. Stevens is looking wiped, hunting for a big punch as Cholish kicks to the body. Stevens goes for a takedown, doesn’t get it, but does take Cholish’s back standing. Cholish rolls under, grabs the right leg of Stevens and wrenches it back. Stevens grimaces in pain and taps to the kneebar at 3:57 of the second round.

Still, the situation looks dire as Silva jumps off to the right side of Emelianenko. Silva has a tight-looking arm-triangle choke, but Emelianenko will not tap. After a few tense moments, Silva relents and winds up back in Emelianenko’s half-guard. Still 90 seconds left on the clock and both men look spent. Fedor’s face is badly lumped up. Silva drops back for a kneebar, but Fedor resists and goes for a toe hold of his own. Silva wags his finger and that’s where the round ends.

Emelianenko’s right eye is grotesquely swollen shut and referee Dan Miragliotta waves the contest off in between rounds two and three on the advice of the cageside doctor. Silva’s corner doesn’t seem immediately aware of the decision and continues prepping for the third period. When they find out, the Brazilian team reacts with joy before Silva walks over and bows in front of Emelianenko.
