Bailey came in 3 pounds over, while Pace came in six pounds over. Each fighter was fined 20 percent of their earnings and their bouts took at catchweights of 158 lbs and 141 lbs respectively.[12]Results[edit]Main cardWeight classMethodRoundTimeNotesLight HeavyweightDan Hendersondef.Maurício RuaDecision (unanimous) (48-47, 48-47, 48-47)55:00[a]MiddleweightWanderlei Silvadef.Cung LeTKO (knees and punches)24:49BantamweightUrijah Faberdef.Brian BowlesSubmission (guillotine choke)21:27WelterweightMartin Kampmanndef.Rick StoryDecision (split) (30–27, 29–28, 28–29)35:00[b]Light HeavyweightStephan Bonnardef.Kyle KingsburyDecision (unanimous) (30–27, 30–25, 30–27)35:00Preliminary card (Spike TV)Weight classMethodRoundTimeNotesLight HeavyweightRyan Baderdef.Jason BrilzKO (punch)11:17BantamweightMichael McDonalddef.Alex SotoKO (punches)10:56Preliminary card (Facebook)Weight classMethodRoundTimeNotesMiddleweightChris Weidmandef.Tom LawlorTechnical submission (D'Arce choke)12:07[c]LightweightGleison Tibaudef.Rafael dos AnjosDecision (split) (28–29, 29–28, 30–27)35:00Catchweight (141 lbs)Miguel Torresdef.Nick PaceDecision (unanimous) (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)35:00WelterweightSeth Baczynskidef.Matt BrownSubmission (guillotine choke)20:42[d]Catchweight (158 lbs)Danny Castillodef.Shamar BaileyTKO (punches)14:52[e]Jump up ^ Voted the 2011 MMA Fight of the Year.[13][14][15]Jump up ^ Dana White incorrectly reported at the post fight press conference that a judge's scores had been tabulated incorrectly and should have been announced as unanimous decision in favor of Kampmann.[16] According to the California State Athletic Commission's website and confirmed by , judge Susan Thomas-Gitlin in fact scored the fight in favor of Story.[17]Jump up ^ This bout aired on the Spike broadcast following the B... read more
