Kenny Florian stopped Joe Lauzon with an impressive ground display, although Lauzon should hold his head up high. In other bouts:
Gray Maynard won a hard fought decision over Frankie Edgar;
Thiago Alves TKO'd Karo Parisian, who was one of 2 fighters angry at the stoppage. Karo's anger seemed more legitimate than Houston Alexander's (see below), as Karo never seemed fully out of it (although heavily pounded);
Matt Hamill stopped Tim Boetsch, who seemed to fatigue quickly and could not handle Hamill's wrestling.
Nate Diaz survived the early onslaught from Kurt Pellegrino and submitted Kurt via a triangle. A very impressive win for Diaz;
James Irvin tied the UFC record for a fastest KO by dropping Houston Alexander with first (superman) punch and landing 2 more unanswered blow on the ground. Alexander protested as loudly as Parisian, but replay showed him fully limp and not defending, thus apparently justifying the stoppage.

George Sotiropoulos def. Roman Mitichyan via TKO (strikes) -- Round 2, 2:24
