* Joe Lauzon d. Brandon Melendez via submission (triangle choke) at 2:09 of R2.
* Roger Huerta d. Douglas Evans via TKO (strikes) at 3:30 of R2.
* Thales Leites d. Floyd Sword via submission (arm triangle choke) at 3:50 of R1.
* Nathan Diaz d. Manvel Gamburyan via submission (shoulder injury) at 0:20 of R2. Diaz was stunned by the stoppage but not stunned enough to not accept being named the winner of Ultimate Fighter 5.
* BJ Penn d. Jens Pulver via submission (rear naked choke) at 3:12 of R2 and gets the redemption he's long been looking for. Said to be a really good fight.

Sherdog's explanation of Maynard v. Emerson. In round 2 Maynard scores with an uppercut and slams Emerson hard to the mat. Emerson is injured and taps, but Maynard knocked himself out while executing the throw. Maynard complains after the bout that he was not unconscious but the replays tell a different story. The fight is ruled a no contest due to lack of a decisive winner.
