In a wild fight to start the main card, Godofredo Castro electrified the crowd with a dizzying array of strikes and guts en route to a first-round submission win over Mike de la Torre.

Pepey rocked the American with a spinning head kick as soon as the bout started and then followed it up with a flying knee. From there, it was a back-and-forth slugfest until the Brazilian brought the fight to the ground. After a few moments, Pepey sunk in a rear-naked choke and forced the tapout, which came at the 3:03 mark.
