TJ Grant and Evan Dunham got things going on the preliminary portion of the event. Both fighters engaged in a slugfest with neither backing down from the other as the fight went on. Grant was awarded the unanimous decision win in a very exciting affair.

Cub Swanson got things going on the first live fight on the PPV main card. He was able to get past a early takedown from Charles Oliveira and land some nice punches. However, he was able to put the always tough Oliveira away from a overhand shot. It was his second consecutive “KO of the Night” bonus.
