- In the main event at Emperor's Palace, the Harold Volbrecht trained cruiserweight prospect Johnny Muller came off the canvas in the fifth and seventh rounds to score a ten round split decision upset over world ranked Mateusz Masternak of Poland. The fifth round knockdown came from no apparent punch, but a big right hand dropped Muller in the seventh round. A cut above Muller's left eye from a punch in round four was bleeding badly late in the fight, but the ringside doctor let the bout continue. Both fighters traded power shots for nine rounds. Masternak appeared to outwork Muller, so the decision was somewhat questionable. However, Muller, his face bruised, clearly won the tenth round-and the bout-as Masternak appeared tired at that point.
