Romanov lived up to his billing when he completely dismantled the returning Chase Sherman in the final prelims bout of the card. Romanov took Sherman down with ease before pulling off a rare belly-to-back suplex in the octagon.

In the only preliminary card bout that went the distance, Natan Levy scored a unanimous decision victory over Mike Breeden. Levy picked up his first victory in the promotion by out striking his opponent.
