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.
