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

Matt Riddle defeats Greg Soto by disqualification (illegal upkick) at 1:30 of the third round.
Jared Hamman defeats Rodney Wallace by unanimous decision.
Rousimar Palhares defeats Tomasz Drwal by heel hook at 0:45 of the first round.

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

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.
"BANG!" - Jim Lampley's first word as a child
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.

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.

He's going to heel hook Joe Silva until he "taps out" by putting him 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

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

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

Dude makes the heel hook his bitch
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.
Keep firing Assholes!
Blackout is always right
I bet he makes it back to first or second fight on a PPV pretty soon
dude’s just too exciting.
The Big East is now 1-3 so far - Greg Gumble
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.

From what I remember the Jets made the afc championship game this past season
not a bad feat, for a rookie qb and hc. Both up and coming as well. check yo self fool.
