Two fights have already taken place at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City and thanks to Sherdog.com we have the early results!

Lamont Lister vs. Oleg Savitsky
Lister lands a big right hand that collapses Savitsky. Just moments into the bout Lister pounces on his foe and punches away from back mount until referee Dan Murgliotta intervenes. The end comes at 33 seconds of the first round. WINNER VIA TKO: LAMONT LISTER.

Antwain Britt vs. Bryan Vetell
The fight is underway! Vetell clinches and pushes Britt back into the incline and onto his back. Vetell punching from the top from half guard. Vetell posts on Britt's face and elbows with the same arm. Britt has no answers as he is pinned against the incline eating elbows. The referee stands them up when things slow down. Britt takes advantage of the stand up with flurry of punches catching Vetell and forcing him to look for the clinch. Vetell gets the clinch but as he tries to pull guard Britt gets the mount. Britt unloads with punches until Vetell is saved by the round coming to an end. Sherdog gives the first round to Britt 10-9. The judges see it unanimously for Bryan Vetell 10-9. Unless I'm mistaken that means we have a WINNER: BRYAN VETELL. Since they are alternates and may have to fight tonight, they're under the same rules as the opening fights of the elimination tournament - one round only.
