RFA 1 RESULTS: Watch Jens Pulver Get KTFO by Jumping Knee from Tim Elliott in Kearney, Nebraska - 12/16/11
Former UFC lightweight champion Jens "Little Evil" Pulver, making his bantamweight debut after a mostly disastrous run at featherweight, lost yet again. Jens Pulver got caught with a flying knee in the second round of his main event fight with Timothy Elliott. Having been backed up against the cage by a flurry of strikes from Elliott, the wrestler Pulver instinctively went for Elliott's leg when he saw it raise up, but instead took a knee to the noggin that dropped him dead in his tracks.

KING OF THE CAGE: MAGNAFLOW RESULTS: Tony Lopez TKO's Esteves Jones in Super Heavyweight KOTC Title Rematch 12/15/11
In the main event, KOTC Super Heavyweight Champion Tony "Kryptonite" Lopez once again defeated Esteves "Quiet Riot" Jones by fourth-round stoppage. Lopez won the KOTC big man title from Jones 3 months ago with a rear-naked choke submission in the fourth round. This time, the fight ended by TKO in the penultimate round.
The co-main event was billed as a retirement match for veteran fighters Brian "Mr. Unbreakable" Warren and BJJ black belt John De La O, who have nearly 30 years of combined pro MMA experience. Warren scored a first-round TKO victory over his grappling counterpart, and then hinted that he might not be ready to retire after all.

BAMMA 8 RESULTS: Brits Jimi Manuwa, Jim Wallhead and Andre Winner Victorious in the United Kingdom - 12/10/11
