Here is the Sherdog play by play currently. I'll edit the rest in after they are completed. Yeah I realize this is a huge waste of time but I'm extremely bored on another lame Friday night.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Sean Bassett (Pictures) vs. Chris Amarante (Pictures)
Round 1

Amarante opens with a nice flurry before getting a back body lock takedown. Amarante goes for the armbar but misses and Bassett gets back to his feet. Amarante tries the guillotine but cant cinch it. Amarante takes Bassett back down and quickly mounts him. Bassett again returns to his feet and proceeds to slam Amarante to the mat. Amarante goes for the armbar again, this one a little closer, but cant get it. Both men get back to their feet where Bassett lands a nice combo. Amarante gets another takedown followed by a wild scramble that saw yet another armbar attack by Amarante. This one was successful, eliciting the tapout from Bassett at 4:37 of the first round of what was scheduled for three, 5-min. rounds.

Clint Coronel vs. Juan Miranda
Round 1

Coronel opens with a big right hand to the head of Miranda. Both men are circling, looking for an opening. Miranda eats a nice jab before being put on his back by Coronel. Miranda scores a nice chest to chest sweep and immediately applies the guillotine. Coronel escapes the submission attempt and the three minute round came to a close.

Round 2

Round two begins with Coronel stalking Miranda around the cage, looking to connect. After a brief exchange, Coronel took Miranda to the mat and moved to the north-south position. He locked on an anaconda choke and got the submission win when Miranda tapped out at 1:43 of the second round.

Bill Duvall vs. Luke Stewart
Round 1

Stewart gets the first takedown of the bout after an exchange of knees from the clinch. Stewart moved right into the mount and started an assault that began with punches and ended with a tapout inducing armbar. Luke Stewart defeats Bill Duvall by armbar at 1:15 of the first round.

Scott Graham (Pictures) vs. Jared Hamman (Pictures)
Round 1

Jared Hamman opened the bout with a vicious flying tackle more reminicient of a Brian Urlacher hit than any MMA technique. Scott Graham did not panic. Keeping his composure and working from the bottom, Graham made it back to his feet and delivered some punishment of his own with a knee and a flurry of punches. Hamman was not out of his element for long as he planted Graham back to the mat and went back to work. Hamman, with the top position, took advantage of an opening in Graham's guard and moved to mount. He was unable to take advantage of the position as the round came to a close.

Round 2

Round two opened with Hamman eating a number of strikes before taking the fight back to the ground. Once again he assumed the mount. This time Graham was not as fortunate as referee John Schorle was forced to intervene due to strikes at 1:36 of the second frame.

Daniel Puder (Pictures) vs. Tom Tuggle (Pictures)
Round 1

Puder attempts a front kick to Tuggles stomache but it is caught and he is dumped to the mat. Puder wastes no time, sinking the armbar deep as soon as Tuggle follows him to the ground. Tuggles struggled to escape but Puder kept cranking until he got the tapout at 28 seconds of the first round.

Eugene Jackson (Pictures) vs Mike Seal (Pictures)
Round 1

Jackson looks passive as Seal comes forward to begin the bout. That is until he catches him with a punch that buckles Seal. Jackson wasted no time in clamping on the guillotine choke and jumping to guard. Seal, a veteran, was not worried at all and continued to flash the thumbs up to referee Cecil Peoples while working to escape. Once he disentangled himself from Jackson's clutches, Seal regained his feet. From there it was on as the fighters, both noticeably weary, let it all hang out as the exchanged flurry after flurry until the round came to a close. The only break in the action came when both fighters, smiling and bloodied, exchanged a high five before getting back at it. Sherdog.com scored a close first round 10-9 for Seal.

Round 2

Round two began with more of the same as punches and kicks were flying with reckless abandon. As the pace began to slow — it had to after all the action — Jackson scored with a nice right hand that staggered Seal. Jackson followed it up with a nice head and body combination. Seal tried to answer with a kick to the body but Jackson caught it and quickly scored the trip takedown. After moving into the mount, Jackson unloaded a volley of punches that caused referee Peoples to intervene at 2:49 of the second round. It will be tough to dislodge this one as fight of the night.

Josh Thomson (Pictures) vs. Harris Sarmiento (Pictures)
Round 1

Both fighters exchange low kicks early on until Thomson tries to go to the body with a kick that Sarmiento caught. Harris, with Josh's leg trapped under his arm, tripped him down to the mat. Thomson avoids Sarmiento's strikes and gets back to his feet. After missing on a guillotine choke, "The Punk" scored with a superman punch that he followed up with a nice double leg takedown. Referee Dan Snell did not allow Thomson to stay in Sarmiento's guard very long and brought the fighters back to the center of the cage. A replay of Sarmiento's first takedown ensued but Thomson would not stay down this time, scurrying back to his feet. The combatants worked from the clinch, mostly ineffectively, until the horn sounded ending the first stanza. Sherdog.com scored the first round for Sarmiento a razor close 10-9.

Round 2

Round two began with Thomson rolling from a standing position for a kneebar. Sarmiento was having none of it, punching his opponent and escaping easily. He very narrowly escaped the next Thomson attack after "The Punk" locked up what looked like an extremely tight guillotine. Sarmiento perservered and made it out of danger. Thomson, far from finished, began to find his range, landing a host of strikes before taking the bout back to the ground. The round ended with Thomson in control, having his way on the mat. Sherdog.com scores round two for Thomson 10-9.

Round 3

Thomson, looking like he has found a comfort zone in the cage, opens round three with a nice punch-kick combo and after a lull in the action put Sarmiento back to the canvas with another double leg takedown. Thomson worked into a mounted position before Sarmiento gave up his back. Thomson obliged him and before long had him flattened out, rolled over and figure four bodylocked. "The Punk" worked himself around to the side and locked on the arm triangle choke that ended the fight at 3:19 of the third round.

Duane Ludwig (Pictures) vs. Tyson Griffin (Pictures)
Round 1

Ludwig takes the venter of the cage in the early going.landing a couple punches as Griffin closes the distance. Griffin backs out and the next time he closes its a shot for the takedown. It is quick and he puts "Bang" on his back. Griffin begins to pick away at the noted striker but Ludwig continues to throw from his back. Griffin unloads a big barage of punches but Ludwig still looks composed. Griffin continues the onslaught and referee John Schorle steps in to end the fight. Ludwig is less than thrilled with the stoppage and pleads his case to Schorle while Griffin celebrates. Tyson Griffin defeats Duane Ludwig by referee stoppage at 3:57 of the first round. Replays show Griffin landing a series of punches from side control as Ludwig is trapped against the cage. Ludwig is still intelligently defending himself throughout the entire exchange. It was a borderline stoppage at best.

Bobby Southworth (Pictures) vs. James Irvin (Pictures)
Round 1

Southworth and Irvin clinch up and fall back against the cage door. The door does not looked to be secured and Irvin crashes through it with Southworth in tow. Sven Bean looked to be attempting to lock the door as the fighters fell through the opening. James Irvin can not continue and is escorted off the cage apron. Jimmy Lennon Jr. announces the fight is ruled a no contest after just 17 seconds. He also lets the fans know that Irvin suffered a knee injury. Bobby Southworth is heartily booed as he takes the microphone to make his post fight comments. Apparently they still do not like him from his days on The Ultimate Fighter or it could be the fact that he was raising his hands in victory as James Irvin was being attended to on the apron.
