Tito Ortiz and Rashad Evans earned “Fight of the Night” for their exciting two round battle. Returning from a 14-month layoff, Evans controlled the majority of the fight with aggressive striking and strong wrestling and his speed proved too much for the former champion Ortiz, who was unable to slow down the former Michigan State wrestler.
Vitor Belfort earned “Knockout of the Night” for his first-round stoppage of fellow middleweight Yoshihiro Akiyama. While the two took their time feeling each other out early, a missed front kick from Akiyama triggered an explosion from Belfort, who dropped the Japanese fighter with a flurry of strikes.
With no “Submission of the Night” to award, White gave Brian Ebersole a “thanks for getting those horrifying shorts off tv as soon as possible” bonus for his win over Speedo-wearing veteran Dennis Hallman.
