In one of the night's opening bouts, Infinite MMA's JJ Mondragon showed an amazing display of hands as he knocked F.I.T. NHB's Hector Salliant to the ground with a straight right and finished via TKO stoppage in 15 seconds. Salliant lay on the mat for several nervous minutes afterwards, but was able to eventually leave the cage under his own power.

After a back and forth ground battle in the opening round, Tyler Toner and Jamie Schmidt's battle for the 145-pound Ring of Fire Young Gun's title ended in a frustrating no contest.
Schmidt appeared to edge slightly ahead following the opening round, but as the second round started he half-slipped, was half-knocked to the mat. While Schmidt was face down on all fours, Toner threw a punch that ended up hitting him in the back of the head at the base of the skull, causing the referee to stop the bout.
Following several minutes of examination by ringside doctors, Schmidt was deemed unfit to continue. Since the bout didn't make it to the end of round two and the strike was ruled inadvertent, the fight was declared a no contest with a rematch pending for April.

BROOMFIELD, Colo. – Ultimate Fighter alum Noah Thomas continued his road back to respectability on Saturday night at the Broomfield Events Center, where he captured the Ring of Fire 135-pound Championship, finishing Justin Robbins in the opening moments of the first round with a guillotine choke.
Robbins shot on Thomas early, but ate a kneed on the way in. As he scored the double-leg takedown, Robbins felt Thomas clamp down the guillotine choke. He tried to defend, but moments later was tapping out, leaving Thomas as the new bantamweight champion.
"That's how it goes guys, you don't get away from it," said Thomas of the finishing maneuver after the bout before setting his sights on his next target... World Extreme Cagefighting. "WEC, come on, give me a shot! Come on WEC!" he roared to the crowd.
Thomas has now won seven straight bouts – including capturing the TKO and Ring of Fire bantamweight titles – something he hopes will help erase the memories of his getting booted off the The Ultimate Fighter after a backyard brawl with Marlon Sims during season five of the reality series.
