Gilbert Melendez def. Shinya Aoki by unanimous decision (live blog)
Muhammed Lawal def. Gegard Mousasi by unanimous decision (live blog)

Muhammed Lawal took Mousasi to the ground at will, but he did not do much damage at all. Lawal had side control over and over again, but he did not appear to know what to do next. The fight was not very entertaining.

Gilbert Melendez def. Shinya Aoki was not a very entertaining fight either. Aoki kept wanting go to the mat, but Melendez wanted to stand. Not much momentum in this fight.

Henderson dominated the first round. He dropped Shields with a big right hand and had a chance to finish, but he did not. The turning point in the fight was when Henderson tried to take Shields back and failed. The last 4 rounds was dominated by Shields on the ground. He went to the ground when ever he wanted. took full mount whenever he wanted, and took side control whenever he wanted.
