Diego Saraiva vs. Jorge Gurgel

Round 1
Back and fourth exchange of wild strikes in the opening minute from Gurgel and Saraiva. Gurgel landed the harder shots and snapped Saraiva's head back twice. Saravia shot unsuccessfully, but was able to pull guard. Gurgel controlled the top position and landed some some strong ground-and-pound. With 15 seconds remaining in the frame, Gurgel stood up and was met with a few hard punches, but it wasn't enough to steal the round for Saraiva.

Round 2
Solid action in the second period. Both fighters land well on their feet, but it's Saraiva who lands the better leather. Gurgel is hurt with a right hand to the forehead and a left to the jaw. Saraiva pulls guard and works elbows to the top of his opponent's head. Gurgel's face starts to show signs of punishment

Round 3
Dominating final stanza from Jorge Gurgel. He lands a double jab and left hands throughout the first half of the round. Saraiva connects with a shot of his own before pulling guard. Gurgel rides the top position and offers some downward strikes for several minutes. Gurgel went to his feet with 15 seconds remaining but he was not able to secure a finish. Jorge Gurgel wins a unanimous decision, 30-27 on all three judges' score cards.
