UFC on Versus 3: Live Results

UFC on Versus 3 Poster by Anton Tabuena

As with every major show, Bloody Elbow will be here to bring you live results and commentary for UFC on Versus 3. The live blog will start with the beginning of the Facebook stream (8 p.m. ET) continuing through the Versus broadcast (9 p.m. ET) so make sure to make Bloody Elbow your home for this event. The 3D telecast will be produced by VERSUS with the UFC and sponsored by XFINITY.

The event is headlined by a welterweight bout between Martin Kampmann and Diego Sanchez. Also on the card is: C.B. Dollaway vs. Mark Munoz, Alessio Sakara vs. Chris Weidman and Damacio Page vs. Brian Bowles. In addition to those four bouts are Joe Stevenson vs. Danny Castillo and Steve Cantwell vs. Cyrille Diabate on Facebook.

As always we have our rule: NO SPOILERS! In the interest of not ruining anything from the undercard that may make the broadcast we ask that you do not discuss the results of the undercard in the comments until either the broadcast ends or the fight makes the air.

And we're live. This is Kid Nate filling in for the Facebook fights.

Joe Stevenson vs Danny Castillo: Round 1 Extended feeling out process. They clinch up and Stevenson is working for a guillotine choke. Castillo escapes. They lock against the fence and Joe Daddy slams him from way up high. Castillo fight his way up and immediately locked into a guillotine. Castillo escapes. They separate. Castillo gets another take down. Stevenson works for the choke again. Castillo busts out. Now Castillo has a front headlock. Punching exchange, Castillo scores with a right and a left, and Castillo lands a knee too. Stevenson is hurt.  They trade knees to end the round. Bloody Elbow scores it 10-9 for Castillo. Round 2 Slow start to the round. Stevenson forces Danny to the fence and gets the take down. Castillo to half guard. Some strikes from the top. Castillo gets full guard. Elbow from Stevenson.

Stevenson shoots, Castill stuffs it and gets a front headlock. Stevenson drives forward and forces Castillo into the cage. Castillo reverses and lands some knees to the body. Stevenson attacks the head again. Castillo throws him down and lands some shots from the top. Another scramble. Castillo working for a single. Joe Daddy attacks the neck again, falls to his back.

Brent Brookhouse taking the results back over for the Versus broadcast, which is now live.

Brian Bowles vs. Damacio Page

Round 1 - They are both throwing a ton of early strikes. Page with some real aggression with flying knees and such and Bowles settles it down and lands an uppercut as they go to a slower pace. Page with some very hard leg kicks. Page keeps going back to the leg kick and he's coming forward with serious intentions. Another hard leg kick. Page looks like he has Bowles very uncomfortable. Jab, leg kick by Page and a nice right hand by Bowles. Page is slowing down a little and Bowles is getting comfortable. Uppercut lands hard for Bowles and he follows up with more strikes and Page flops to his back. Big punches and elbows by Bowles from on top and in the scramble Bowles locks up a deep guillotine, pulls guard and Page is out cold in the choke. Great job of being patient and waiting out the early flurry by Bowles. Brian Bowles wins by submission (guillotine choke), round 1. Same submission that got him the win in their first fight.

Alessio Sakara vs. Chris Weidman

Round 1 - Weidman flails in and almost falls down on a wild punch. Now he reaches in and misses a takedown. Weidman looks very nervous. Great two punch combo followed by a leg kick. Throws another combo again with a leg kick. Weidman pushes him into the cage but Sakara gets off and back to distance. Two punches for Weidman and one of them lands. Sakara keeps working the combinations. Sakara kind of walks away and Weidman pushes him into the cage. USA chant starts and Joe Rogan makes fun of the crowd for it. Again he can't get the takedown. Sakara throws a two punch combo to the body and it was beautiful. Weidman wings punches and misses pretty much all of them but early in the round he landed a glancing punch that opened a cut above Sakara's right eye. 10-9 round for Sakara.

Round 2 -Weidman gets the single early in the round and is in Sakara's guard. Big ground and pound and Sakara is bleeding badly. Pass to side control after a big right hand. Weidman spending a lot of time in side control landing punches and Sakara regains half guard. Sakara manages to stand up and lands a nice flurry of punches but he ends up getting taken back down against the cage. Sakara pushes him off and is back to standing. The ref calls time to check the cut. They go back to action. Leg kick by Sakara and Weidman fires a punch back. Leg kick by Weidman. Left hook by Weidman lands after a missed hook from Sakara. Nice hard jab by Sakara. Hard body shots by Sakara. 10-9 round for Weidman evens it on the Bloody Elbow card.

Round 3 - Sakara going nuts with the punches and really drilling Weidman in the body. Weidman drives through a takedown right into side control. A little ground and pound. Sakara regained half guard but ate a few punches. Bad stand-up by the ref. Takedown again by Weidman with about two minutes left. That should be enough to win him the fight. Sakara gets up but gets taken right back down. 10-9 round for Weidman, but I have a weird feeling he's about to get screwed on the decision.

Official Scorecards: 30-27 across the board all for Chris Weidman.

CB Dollaway vs. Mark Munoz

Round 1 - Dollaway with an early takedown and Munoz keeps turning to try to get on top but they end up back on the feet. Huge right hand by Munoz stuns Dollaway and a few punches to follow up drop CB. Series of hard hammerfists by Munoz and the fight is stopped. It was a big right hand that set it up. Mark Munoz wins by TKO (strikes), round 1.

Diego Sanchez vs. Martin Kampmann

Round 1- Kampmann pawing with straight punches early trying to find the range. A few little pecking punches land now. Diego is winging wide shots and not finding a home for them while Martin is going with smaller shots to score points. Right hand by Kampmann and now Diego is driving in for the single leg. Kampmann sprawls out of it and lands a great right hand that drops Diego. Looked like it may have been a slip. Diego back up and he's looking for the takedown but Kampmann defends it very well. Diego drops down for a takedown and eats a knee. Left hand lands for Diego. Kampmann landing the straight right with a fair degree of regularity. Right hook by Diego. Nice body shots by Diego now but he eats a punch for his trouble. Diego is bleeding and swollen up. Diego driving in for the takedown again and again he can't get it. 10-9 round for Kampmann.

Round 2 - Diego looks for the takedown twice and still can't get it. Diego misses with a huge uppercut. Pushing Kampmann into the cage again. Martin is landing the cleaner punches but Diego is letting his hands go a lot more this round. Another takedown stuffed and a few punches land for Kampmann. Diego flurries and Kampmann's legs buckle. Now Kampmann is bleeding from above his eye. Diego shoots again and is stuffed. Diego pushes into the cage and lands another right hand. Another flurry and Diego lands a right. Now Kampmann lands a nice right hand. Diego flurries at the end of the round again and again Kampmann is hurt. 10-9 Diego round in my eyes for landing the harder and more meaningful punches.

Round 3 - Nice right hook by Diego early. Another big right hand by Diego. Nice body shot by Diego and a right hand in return by Kampmann. Knee by Kampmann as he stuffs Diego's takedown. Diego flurries in again this time Kampmann circles and lands a nice counter. Kampmann stuffs the takedown again. Nice flurry of punches by Diego. Diego punches and ducks under and gets his first takedown of the night. Kampmann manages to get up though. Left lands for Diego. Nice combo by Diego and he clips him hard and makes Martin go backward. Diego flurries again and both men land good punches. Kampmann broke his hand. He keeps shaking it. Series of punches for Diego and Kampmann lands a knee. Nice shot by Kampmann. Diego is trying to chase him down. I know no one is going to agree with me but Sanchez 29-28.

Official Scorecards: 29-28 across the board. Diego Sanchez wins by unanimous decision.

Nah,

That Anton guy sucks. His ‘posters’ don’t give out any information! ;)

Haha. Seriously though, if your priority is to make sure that all the info are easily readable, it really sucks out all the creativity. For my posters though, since it always comes out on the day of the fights itself, and it’s target audience is a bunch of hardcore fans who already know those info, I don’t have to be restricted by prioritizing info over the ‘look’.

Not working for me on Chrome or Firefox.

All other forms of streaming video plays. It’s obviously on my end because it’s a new computer and other people are watching, but it is on the UFC in that it’s not as simple as turn on, go to Facebook, like and watch. Probably need some codecs or something.

The less you do the better the FB stream is i think. So switching tabs a bunch or having other stuff running hampers the quality. At least that’s the way it seems to me.

So everybody knows, it's an auto-adjusting stream.

It has at least two levels of quality, and probably closer to three or four. It is supposed to auto-detect your connection and give you the best stream you can have without having it jump around at all. No skipping is more important than picture quality.

It mostly works, the only problem is that it seems to take too long to adjust at times.

From the perspective of his "killer instinct."

I was just incredibly disappointed that he didn’t go after Cantwell when he dropped him in the first.

Then he just kinda poked at him with 1-2 hits and seriously attacked his legs.

No, I think it does mean someone has to have messed up.

A fight has to be either a win for Fighter X, a win for Fighter Y, or a draw. A split decision occurs when two judges declare X the winner and the other judge chooses Y. If X really won, the other judge messed up. If Y really won, the other two judges messed up. And if it was really a draw, they all messed up.

Unless the idea is that some fights are just too close to call, so any ruling is valid. I’m a little skeptical of that, though.

I’m going to be honest and say that my viewing situation is not ideal, i.e., it’s not the clearest in the world & it’s tiny. But from my admittedly poor vantage point, it looked like a lot of Sakara’s punches were landing on Weidman’s arms; Weidman also landed some power shots and kept it in his realm against the fence.

Sakara might very well have won the first round, I’m not rabid about it or anything.

I wasn’t promoting animal cruelty in any way, just that I was really sad about the incident and I thought posting it here will help spread awareness for our care towards our feathered friends and animals in general. Peace out!

So let me get this straight: the WWE has gone from the powerful "Austin 3:16" to the dominant and iconic "Can you smell what the Rock is cooking?" all the way to...

Martin hit him quite a bit in the second as well.

Yet stuffing every single takedown attempt should clearly win him that round. He stifled the vast majority of Diego’s offense.

Disturbing or not, I booed and booed loudly. It was a great fight and I told my wife it would get the FotN bonus, but regardless I (and a good half of the arena) felt strongly enough about that decision to boo.

Was it the worst decision ever or even the worst this year? Not at all. Was it a bad decision based on Diego winning a single takedown and throwing way to many winging punches? Hell yes it was. Diego was outstruck standing, was praying for a takedown the entire fight, and desperate enough to win the fight that he completely ignored any defense in those little flurries where he took more damage than he dealt.

Diego did not win that fight and the decision (not the fighters) deserved that boo.

Why do people keep calling robbery?

I’d like to hear some actual arguments instead of exclamation points. This was very obviously a close fight. Stuffing takedowns means just as much as having your takedowns stuffed if nothing else happens. After Kampmann took the first, the second round was incredibly close. Martin may have landed more, but Diego seemed to land the hardest, which I thought was clear on the replays. After that Kampmann became tentative, and Diego pressed the action. Diego didn’t win in convincing fashion or anything, but I thought he won the last two rounds, which is all that’s required of him. This whole “but look at Diego’s face” is nonsense. Martin scored all the damage in the first in a round that wasn’t 10-8. This doesn’t need to be that difficult. If the 2nd round was close, which it was, then the term “robbery” doesn’t apply.

well

Who do you think he’d want to win? The big name TUF winner who is in the midst of a redemption story or a quiet Dutch kickboxer who isn’t well known to casual fans.

Robbery? ? Stephanie Bonner talking about robbery how about they talk about how Nick ring robbed a decision last week

I dunno, maybe because this fight just happened and that fight was last week?

I guess I thought we were talking about robbery in Emma fights because phantom Garcia and the ring fight were robberies not this fight

From Mike Chiappetta

Final @compustrike stats: Kampmann out-lands Sanchez 97-45, and by more than 10 strikes in all 3 rounds. Sanchez 1-15 in takedowns & wins.

yeah but kampmann didn't wobble him so you divide his hits landed by 3

add in diego"s windmill punches his 45 hits gets multiplied by 3 and thats how he won. oh yeah the massive takedown and 10 seconds of control. he owns the 3rd round and since he hurt kampmann in the 2nd round that negates all the good work he did in that round.

I got to agree with MR. jordan Breen on this decison " Diego didn’t win any of the rounds. That’s what happens when fights are scored by people who don’t know what they’re watching. "

by Shocbomb on Mar 3, 2011 11:45 PM EST reply actions  

Breen is entitled to his opinion, but many disagree with him on this. I thought Diego won, though it was a close fight.

I gues outlanding someone buy a 20 to 1 ratio and outgrappling them is not good enuff to win a decision in MMA anymore ? All you got to do is push foward swing wild and shot bad takedown attempts AKA pushing the pace and you will win the fight, It does not matter how bad you get outlanded or busted up eather ?

Thank you, I knew I didn't imagine that.

Kampmann threw 25% of the punches Diego did and landed about 200% more of them in that exchange- but it is exactly those exchanges that gave Diego the fight in the judges’ eyes. What a mess.

Just saw Diego's face in live thread

I’d hate to see what Kampman looked like if he LOST.

Just Breed!

I meant in post fight thread whoops.

Just Breed!
