The headliner bout on the Spike TV preliminary airing, the Dunham-Griffin bout promised to be an intriguing and exciting affair, and the UFC was hoping it would be enough to score some late buys for the Chuck Liddell, Rich Franklin-headlined pay-per-view.

Did Dunham stay undefeated? Or, did Tyson Griffin make it three wins in a row with a big victory? Results follow:

Evan Dunham b. Tyson Griffin via split decision (30-27, 28-29, 29-28)
*Note: Though the right guy won, the judging was fairly off the mark here. The idea that Griffin won the fight on any card is absurd, and even giving one of the three rounds to Griffin is suspect. This was pretty clearly a 30-27 fight for Dunham.
