-Stephan Bonnar def. Keith Jardine via Unanimous Decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28).
Notes from the show:
*Christison/Imes was said to be a war. It was a prelim fight so it didn't air.
*Fitch/Burkman fight is technically an upset, as Burkman had a loaded bandwagon after only a few quick wins in UFC. Burkman couldn't get Fitch down, and was at a disadvantage on the feet.
*Neer over Stevenson is an upset. UFC had high hopes for Stevenson, and those came crashing down with one performance. People are going to label Stevenson in a completely different way until he racks up a few important wins.
*Little bit of controversy on the internet over the Bonnar/Jardine decision. I had it 29-28 for Bonnar also, but the first two rounds were debatable. Any fight with even one debatable round and two conclusive ones are hard to call and will always be debated no matter who gets it. This one had a few rounds like that.
