Round 1: Round opens with the two feeling each other out on the feet. Gouveia starts working the leg kicks, to some success. Marrero goes for a crumby takedown and gets stuck in a guillotine choke. Gouveia sweeps him (still in the choke) and finishes the submission for the victory.

Fight #2:
-Din Thomas vs. Jeremy Stephens
Round 1: Thomas gets a takedown early on to start the round. He passed to side-mount and eventually takes Stephens' back. He's working for a rear naked choke, not getting it though. Still working for it, but eventually Stephens gets out and is on top hammering down. Round ends soon-thereafter. 10-9 for Din Thomas.
Round 2: Thomas starting the round out working his jab. Thomas shoots for a takedown, Stephens defends but Thomas pulls guard. Thomas sinches in a good armbar, but Stephens slams him. Doesn't matter though, armbar still in and "Big" John stops the contest. Stephens' cornerman is protesting the tap. After the fight, Thomas challenges boxing stars Floyd Mayweather, and the man who challenged UFC 155 lb. champion Sean Sherk, Kermit Cintron.

PPV FIGHTS
Fight #5:
-Chris Leben vs. Kalib Starnes
Round 1: Round opens with the two feeling each other out. Leben is the more confident on the feet, Starnes the more aprehensive. Most of the round on the feet with Leben out-scoring Starnes until about a minute left, Starnes gets Leben down and controls him until the round ends. Near the end of the round, Starnes did some great ground and pound work.
Round 2: Definitely a Leben round. Starnes looks gassed. Most of the round on the feet with Leben out-striking Starnes and Starnes seemingly mentally out of the fight already.
Round 3: Another Leben round. Near a close finish for Leben on the feet with a strike, but no dice. Starnes had the last minute or so on the ground on top, but Leben was more active underneath anyways. 29-28 Leben at the worst, could even be some 30-27's.
Kalib Starnes def. Chris Leben via Unanimous Decision (29-28, 30-27, 29-28) after 3 Rounds.
Fight #6:
-Keith Jardine vs. Houston Alexander
Round 1: The most brutal knockout loss ever. And the winner - Houston Alexander. Early on, Jardine rocked Alexander with one shot - but that was it. Alexander proceeded to pummel the holy shit out of Jardine. To his credit, Jardine wouldn't go down for nearly anything - but eventually one of too many BOMB-like shots did the trick. Complete and brutal knockout.
Houston Alexander def. Keith Jardine via KO (strikes) in Round 1.
Fight #7:
-Ivan Salaverry vs. Terry Martin
Round 1: Terry Martin wins via TKO stoppage via slam. The round was all on the feet until the finish, which saw Martin somewhat Judo throw Salaverry - whom landed right on his head and seemed out. He turtled up and Martin landed a couple punches until the ref jumped in.
Terry Martin def. Ivan Salaverry via TKO (ref stoppage) at 2:04 of Round 1.
Fight #8:
-Karo Parisyan vs. Josh Burkman
Round 1: Great first round. These two are swinging INCREDIBLY hard. Parisyan is seemingly getting the better on the feet. Parisyan gets an awesome judo-throw also in the round. Burkman had his moments, but I'd go 10-9 Parisyan thus far.
Round 2: Another Parisyan round. This is a great fight. Whole round on the feet with Parisyan having more moments than Burkman. Not one-sided, but seems like a Parisyan fight. Then again, I was dead wrong on Leben-Starnes.
Round 3: Another Parisyan round, not as exciting as the first two but still a good round. Near the end, Burkman was completely gassed, but Parisyan was tired enough not to be able to capitalize. This should be 30-27 across the board, with only one round being arguable for Burkman.
Karo Parisyan def. Josh Burkman via Unanimous Decision after 3 Rounds.
Fight #9:
-Chuck Liddell (c) vs. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson (UFC LHW Title)
Round 1: The upset trend continues - Liddell is knocked out cold with one shot! Rampage knocks out Chuck Liddell! Holy fucking shit! I lost money betting, but am still happy! Figure that one out!
Quinton "Rampage" Jackson def. Chuck Liddell via KO (punch) in Round 1 to become UFC Light Heavyweight champion.
Great show in my opinion, though the Henderson Vs Rampage annoucment didn't go over well lol I'll be damned if no one gave a shit about Henderson. Though PRIDE Vs UFC is finally happening, im stoked for it

I wasn't sure why people though Rampage would lose ethier, he blocks punched well and throws powerfull short punches. Something Liddell has trouble with as he keeps his hands down low.

Well I hope Chuck gets a shot at the title within the next three title defences.

He wont, Dana will hold out until Chuck wins his fair share to deserve it.
I think that Chuck should fight about two or three fights and then get a title shot. As long as he was champion, he deserves it.
There have been champions in the past that got rubber matches and they held the title less time than Chuck did.

As long as he wins, if he loses any of them then he sure as hell doesn't deserve it whether he was champ or not.
Of course.
He will win.
