In one of the most action packed main cards to take place on a FOX TV event, UFC on FOX 3 main card started out with a bang with Barry vs. Johnson where Johnson put the heavyweight division on notice with a savage KO of Barry and ended with a choke in the Miller vs. Diaz main event.
Nate Diaz did what no one was able to do Saturday night, which is finish Jim Miller, and he did emphatically, after Diaz controlled most of the fight with his jabs and stand up, he took the fight to the mat and where he showed off his excellent BJJ skils as he manipulated Miller into a super tight guillotine choke.
Another fighter also took another step towards the belt, Johny Hendricks beat Josh Koscheck via split decision to place himself very, very close to a shot at the welterweight title.
