Fight 8 Romie Aram wins a two round decision over Michael Penalber - Fight started off slow but turned into a good fight - According to our reporter Al at ringside, Romie actually knocked the guy out with a left but followed him to the ground throwing punches and the subsequent punches revived him and Penalber went right into the guard. As round two progressed, Romie again put Penalber on the mat with a straight right but the round ended.

Round three about to start - The third round went similar to the second with some exchanges but at the end of the round, Valencia was able to take Gamboa down and punch him until the round ended (although Gamboa was in the full guard)
Fight 11 Dan Severn and "Scary" Jerry Verbonivic battle to a majority draw (Crowd thinks "Scary" Jerry won) - Most of round one saw Jerry on top of Dan - Although when the ref stood them up, Severn tripped and fell to the mat, he motioned Jerry to come down, Jerry flipped him off and signaled with his finger for him to get back up - Round two - Jerry goes for a double leg and Severn just falls on him with all his weight and Jerry takes a full facial to the mat but recuperates
Fight 12 Charles "Krazy Horse" Bennett wins by knock out at 40 seconds of the first round over Shad Smith - Crazy fight - As the round started, Bennett jumps on top of the cage and waves to Smith to come and get him - The ref having none of that brings him down and Bennett was all business from there - He comes in throwing punches and tags Smith and the ref steps in and pulls Bennett off as Smith was out of it - After the fight, Bennett jumps on top of the cage and does a back flip to the center of the ring
Fight 13 - Lightweight Title Bout Joe Stevenson wins by submission (Rear naked choke) over Joe Camacho at 4:36 of round two - Stevenson keeps his title - Round two saw a lot of good action until Camacho gave his back and Stevenson capitalized with a RNC - Round 1 saw good exchanges on top - toward the end of the first round, Stevenson took Camacho down and landed a couple of elbows to the face of Camacho as the bell rang - Camacho looked a little dazed
Fight 14 Richard Solis wins by two round decision over Carlos Garcia - Both exchange on top and on the ground but as the round ends, Solis is able to get like a triangle from the mount and punch away at Garcia until the bell rang. Round two starting...Both fighters are really good - while on the ground, Garcia started to scream he's biting my ear, he's biting my ear but it was so loud, no one heard him - they kept fighting until the end of the round - they are discussing what happened with Garcia right now - Goes to a decision
Fight 15 Matt Stansell wins by TKO (Strikes) at 3:22 of the first round over Logan Layton - Layton was on his stomach while Stansell had his hooks in and stretched him out and started to punch until the ref stepped in
