Dan Henderson won by TKO over Kazuhiro Nakamura just 1:15 into the fight. While both men were on the ground, Henderson started landing knees to Nakamura's shoulder which ultimately dislocated it. The referee stopped the fight upon noticing the injury.

[edit] Flag of United States Josh Barnett vs. Flag of Croatia Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic

In a very anti-climactic match, "Cro Cop" was declared the winner after only 46 seconds of fighting when Josh Barnett had to submit due to his shoulder becoming dislocated. There was no clear offensive maneuver by Filipović that could cause the dislocation, making for a very bizarre ending.
