UFC Live: Jones vs. Matyushenko was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Sunday, August 1, 2010.[2] Originally scheduled to take place at the EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah, the UFC was forced to move the event to a different venue due to low ticket sales. On June 14, 2010, the event was moved to San Diego, California to be held at the San Diego Sports Arena. The event was the second UFC event to be broadcast on Versus; the first being UFC Live: Vera vs. Jones.

Background

Jim Miller and Gleison Tibau were set to fight at this event, but the bout was later moved to UFC Fight Night: Marquardt vs. Palhares the following month, where Miller won by unanimous decision.

Two bouts were moved to this event due to visa issues; Paul Kelly vs. Jacob Volkmann from UFC 116[3] and Darren Elkins vs. Charles Oliveira from The Ultimate Fighter 11 Finale.[4]

Joe Stevenson suffered a knee injury in training and was unable to fight Takanori Gomi. Stevenson was replaced by Tyson Griffin.[5]

Willamy Freire also suffered an injury in training, forcing the cancellation of his fight with Thiago Tavares. Tavares was then pulled from the card altogether.[6][7]

"Big" John McCarthy was a referee at this event, the first time he has refereed at a UFC event in almost 3 years.[8]

Damarques Johnson originally weighed in at 172.5 pounds, 1.5 pounds over the contracted weight limit. After being granted one hour to make the original 171 pound limit, Johnson tipped the scales at 172 pounds. As a result, Johnson forfeited 20% of his purse for the fight.[9]

The event drew an estimated 991,000 viewers on Versus.[10] UFC 2012 all the matches live from your pc pls copy the link blew and open in a new tab http://secure.signup-way.com/10225/21607/noah41
