– Roman Martinez and Orlando Salido fight to a split draw (115-113, 114-114, 113-115) *
* – The Martinez-Salido co-main event ended in a split draw, so Martinez retains his junior lightweight title as a result and this likely sets up an anticipated trilogy fight between the two. The fight itself, however, is absolutely worth going out of your way to watch. It was a Gatti-Ward, phone-booth type of fight with a lot of knockdowns and consistent, brutal exchanges. Amazing, action-packed fight.
