UFC 111: St. Pierre vs. Hardy - Unaired Prelim Results

via www.tatame.com

So, you know how the New York Giants actually play in New Jersey?  (Yeah, the Jets do too, but c'mon.  The Jets?)  UFC 111 is kind of like the New York Giants of MMA shows.  New Jersians (New Jerseyites?) would like to think this show is for them, but we all know better.  Zuffa's showcasing this fight for the folks across the Hudson.

There's three scheduled dark fights before the card goes live on Spike.  Matt Riddle vs Greg Soto, Rousimar Palhares vs. Tomasz Drwal, and Rodney Wallace vs. Jared Hamman.  You can find the results after the break.

But do you really want to spoil yourselves?  Since Zuffa started showing prelims on Spike, they've had to show prelims on that show, let alone reshowing Spike prelims on the pay-per-view.  So, c'mon, show some self-restraint for once.

That said, if you're looking for a place to discuss spoilers, this is the only place you may do so.  We have a violent jihad against spoiling in comments in the main live blog and other articles, so watch yourself.

im reporting live from the event

Soto just got DQd for KOing Riddle with an illegal upkick. It looked like riddle was ready to continue after the doctors examined him and everyone left the cage, but then riddle asked the ref something that caused him to bring the doctors back in and then waive off the fight. Very strange.

illegal upkick?

what would make it illegal? like if riddle had a knee on the ground?

by baswoot on Mar 27, 2010 8:00 PM EDT up reply actions  

Riddle was on his hands and knees in soto’s guard

by Scott Haber on Mar 27, 2010 8:10 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Wow. That's odd.

Just when I was ready to call Riddle the middlewight Jon Fitch he decides to get another win by someone illegally stopping him….

Shoot. Why did I say that?

Was also looking up something about Tom Lawlor and had middleweight stuck in my head.

I was there as well

Dunno what you saw, but Riddle was pretty much stone cold unconscious. He eventually got back up, the ref had taken a point from Soto and was about to start it, and Riddle went “wait I don’t know what the f** happened, i can’t continue man” and the ref stopped it.

He had no clue where he was and it was a deserving stoppage or he’s the best actor of our generation.

Total speculation

Iole is saying on twitter that the upkick was blatant. Maybe Soto was frustrated that he was gonna lose his first pro fight.

*1'st UFC fight

He was 7-0 prior to this fight.

Meaning he'd never lost a pro fight

Meaning this would be losing his first pro fight. He said it, he just phrased it weird.

Elliot just wasn’t reading correctly

Anyone else having a problem with the mobile site?

Black background

I’m getting a black background on the mobile site with writing too dark to read.

yep.

Sure glad Lesnar got his shit straightened out.

Rousimar Palhares

should be on the main card

I'm sorry

it was unanimous. All judges scored it 29-28

by phillyhoosfan on Mar 27, 2010 8:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

that's wrong

Buffer announced it as 29-28 across the board

by Scott Haber on Mar 27, 2010 8:30 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Hamman UDs Wallace

Fun fight but very sloppy. Wallace dominated the first with big punches and slams, but gassed. He got hamman down in the second and third but hamman kept sweeping him and landing some very effective g’np. Judges scored it how I had it…29-28 Hamman

thiago alves just walked past

looked to be in good spirits posing with fans

Is Palhares/Drwal coming up soon?

You must have been resonable close to me I saw him walk by n got a pic

Palhares heelhooked Drwal in under a minute

Dtwal slipped and fell and that was the end. Palhares was slow to let go and Drwal was screaming…nasty.

Dave Meltzer said

that RP was pulling even after the ref started pulling him off. If so, RP should get punished for this. Holding a hellhook too long could seriously damage somebody.

i totally did not see that coming. at all.

Sure glad Lesnar got his shit straightened out.

Oh what could have been for Palhares had he held onto that heel hook against Henderson.

Ridiculous they have him on the prelims.

I don’t think that’s happeneing anymore. Main card of a fight night or TUF finale in Tree Stump’s future.

I bet he makes it back to first or second fight on a PPV pretty soon

dude’s just too exciting.

Yeah, stoked every time I see him on a card

And bummed they don’t air his fights.
You guys are right though, I’m sure they’re putting him on the next PPV or UFN ufc puts on. Walked away untouched.

Yushin Okami versus Rousimar Palhares should Okami beat Linares (he should). That’d be a good one.
