The upset of the night came when Linton Vassell entered the Octagon to face Sergei Kharitonov. The two did battle in the main event, with Kharitonov apparently the favorite to win the fight and go on to the title fight, but it was not going to happen.

The first round saw Sergei Kharitonov going for the bigger power shots. He went for the big shots, which, if they had connected, would have seen Kharitonov walking away as the undisputed winner in that fight. However, soon enough, he got taken down and Vassell managed to get the win pummeled Sergei until the end of the first round.

The second round saw Vassell take the back of Kharitonov and pound down on him. That was it as he walked away as the winner while Kharitonov could not answer the shots.

Linton Vassell shocked the world by taking out Sergei Kharitonov, getting the win in the second round via TKO.

Result: Linton Vassell defeated Sergei Kharitonov via TKO (strikes, Round 2, 3 minutes and 16 seconds)
