Here's the play-by-play of the fight from our live blog:
Jake Ellenberger vs. Martin Kampmann - Round 1 - Huge left hook early by Ellenberger and Kampmann drops! Ellenberger is trying to fire away with big shots but he is missing the majority of them. Kampmann is well recovered now and Ellenberger is just kind of holding on to him. Now Ellenberger sits up, throws a few punches and holds on again. Ellenberger doing so little that he's just allowed Kampmann to work to set up a guillotine. Ellenberger is safe from the choke and they go to standing up. Kampmann going for a takedown of his own and the round ends. 10-9 Ellenberger.
Round 2 - Counter punch by Kampmann and now Ellenberger is landing big shots and Kampmann is on the retreat and bleeding badly. Right hand rocks Jake and his legs are wobbled. Big knees in the clinch by Kampmann and Ellenberger drops, and covers up, clearly not wanting any more and the fight is stopped. Wow, great comeback. Martin Kampmann wins by TKO, round 2.
