The Oklahoma State Athletic Commission has issued medical suspensions to only three fighters who were in action at Wednesday’s UFC Fight Night 19 card in Oklahom City. Headliner Nate Diaz as well as preliminary card fighters CB Dollaway and Justin Buchholz were all issued 30-day suspensions for cuts suffered in their bouts at the event.

Nate Quarry’s $60,000 payday for his main card win over Tim Credeur at UFC Fight Night 19 on Wednesday in Oklahoma City topped the event’s $476,000 payroll, according to official fighter salary figures released on Monday by the Oklahoma State Athletic Commission.

Nate Diaz and Carlos Condit were also among the card’s top earners, pocketing $48,000 apiece for their main card victories.

Following an early knockdown at the hands of Melvin Guillard in the UFC Fight Night 19 headliner, Nate Diaz took advantage of his first opportunity on the ground, forcing Guillard to tap to a guillotine choke in the second-round of the main event.

The finish capped off the Spike TV-televised card, which took place at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Tomorrow night Oklahoma City is UFC Ultimate Fight Night 19, headlined by Nate Diaz vs. Melvin Guillard. There are certainly some interesting match ups, and a few that on paper seem a bit one sided. I decided I would go on the record with my official predictions for the event, and so have some of the other staff here at MMAFrenzy.

Despite a hard weight cut, UFC Fight Night 19 headliner Nate Diaz successfully made weight at Tuesday’s official weigh-ins for the event, weighing in exactly at the 156-pound non-title lightweight limit, while his main event opponent, Melvin Guillard, tipped the scale one pound lighter at 155. The rest of the 11-bout card also successfully made weight on their first attempt.

An infection has forced middleweight Dan Miller to withdraw from his scheduled matchup against CB Dollaway at UFC Fight Night 19 on September 16 in Oklahoma City. According to MMA Madness, which first reported the injury on Tuesday, newcomer Jay Silva has agreed to replace Miller and make his Octagon debut against Dollaway on less than two-weeks notice.

Wilson Gouviea’s recent-withdrawal from a scheduled UFC 102 fight against Ed Herman has caused the UFC to shuffle several upcoming matchups, as Herman will now fight Aaron Simpson at the August 28 event, while Dan Miller, who was to fight Simpson at UFC Fight Night 19, will instead meet CB Dollaway on the September 16 card.

Frank Mir, Georges St-Pierre, Thiago Alves, and Michael Bisping were among the 13 fighters issued medical suspensions by the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Monday following their bouts on Saturday at UFC 100.

Mir, who suffered a second-round knockout to Brock Lesnar in the UFC 100 main event, must sit out until September 10 following the loss, while St-Pierre, who defeated Alves by unanimous decision in the co-headliner, could be suspended until January 8 due to a groin injury sustained in the victory.

UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and welterweight title-holder Georges St-Pierre were the top earners at Saturday’s UFC 100 event, each taking home $400,000 for their co-main event victories.

Dan Henderson ($250,000), Michael Bisping ($150,000), and Mark Coleman ($100,000) were also among the top salaries for the historic card, which drew widespread mainstream media coverage and could surpass 1.5 million PPV buys.

Heavyweight title-holder Brock Lesnar became the UFC’s undisputed heavyweight champion on Saturday in the main event of UFC 100 by avenging the only loss of his MMA career with a second-round knockout of interim champ Frank Mir to cap off the historic pay-per-view event, which took place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.

UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre retained his title with a unanimous decision over Thiago Alves and Dan Henderson scored a second-round knockout of Michael Bisping in UFC 100’s other top bouts.

All 22 fighters scheduled to compete tomorrow at UFC 100 successfully made weight on Friday at the event’s official weigh-ins, which were held at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, the same venue which hosts Saturday’s pay-per-view event.

UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar weighed-in exactly at the 265-pound heavyweight limit, while interim title-holder Frank Mir came in 20-pounds lighter at 245. UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre (170) and challenger Thiago Alves (170) as well as TUF 9 coaches Dan Henderson (185) and Michael Bisping (186) also made weight without issue.
