Yushin Okami (185) vs Kalib Starnes (185):
round 3, Starnes appears to have a cut nose. Okami looks the fresher of the two. They trade kicks. Okami rocks Starnes with a right. Starnes runs to escape, and maybe should have been docked a point, but either way, Okami ends up scoring a trip and working from the top. Okami scores nine straight rights, Starnes flips over, Okami scores seven consecutive lefts, and the referee stops the fight on TKO due to strikes. Starnes' nose cut open badly.
Justin James (155) vs Clay Guida (154.5):
One minute left in the 2nd round, Guida breaks through with a ridiculous flurry of about 20 punches with 30 seconds left, James flips over, Guida sinks in a rear naked choke, and James taps. Nice performance by Guida.
Kurt Pellegrino (154.5) vs Junior Assuncao (155):
Assuncao comes out swinging, connects with a combo, and goes for a guillotine. Pellegrino escapes and ends up on top, then gets to his feet, passes Assuncao's guard and scores a huge flurry of rights to the head. Pellegrino gets Assuncao's back and tries to sink in a choke. And he's got it. Pellegrino wins by tapout at 2:04.
