Background

Paulo Filho was expected to face Mamed Khalidov in the main event. However, concerns over the health of Brazilian middleweight forced event organizers to pull him from the bout. He was replaced with Jesse Taylor.[2]

Mariusz Pudzianowski was originally awarded a majority decision in a two-round contest against James Thompson. However, it was later determined that a miscommunication between one of the judges and the bout’s referee resulted in the decision being awarded incorrectly to Pudzianowski when it should have resulted in a split draw and gone to a third (overtime) round. The bout was then changed into a no contest.[3]

Results

Khalidov defeated Taylor via submission (kneebar) in round 1.
