The UK's Bisping and USA's "Mayhem" showed no love loss throughout the season and the bout, and was evident with the refusal to touch gloves pre-fight.
The pair fought a technical bout, to the advantage of the Brit, who displayed a clinical striking advantage leading to a TKO stoppage 3.34minutes into the third round. Mayhem's cardio was a main cause for his disposal, the during and pre-fight antics led to a adrenalin dump in which the conditioned Bisping capitalised on a exhausted Miller, forcing referee Mario Yamasaki to step it. The win moves Bisping one step closer to a title shot against current Middleweight king Anderson Silva.
The bantamweight bout between Team Bisping/Team Alpha Male's T.J Dillashaw Vs Team Miller/ Greg Jackson's John Dodson; the charismatic Dodson found a home for his dangerous left hand early on and eventually dropping T.J and finishing the fight with multiple hammer fists.
The fireworks didn't end there, the featherweight bout between Team Bisping's top pick, Diego Brandao Vs Team Miller's Dennis Bermudez started with both fighters pressing forward and demonstrating their dangerous stand-up; the Brazilian knock-out artist landed several bombs but Brandao pressed forward 4.05 minutes into the first round, Bermudez dropped the Brazilian with a short right-hook but as Bermudez reigned down shots, he left a opening for the BJJ Black Belt Brandao to capitalise with a quick transitioned arm bar to force Bermudez to tap late in round one.
Both Dodson and Brandao won the six-figure UFC contract in their weight classes and the title's of The Ultimate Fighter.
