UFC on Versus 4 took place Sunday night in Pittsburgh, PA at the Console Energy Arena, and there was a lot of uncertainty and controversy heading into the card. The card was surrounded by the question of what happened to Nate Marquardt, and what did he do to get tossed out of the UFC? Unfortunately, because of strict rules in Pennsylvania, the UFC can not disclose what happened to Nate Marquardt as it is a “medical issue.” As it stands right now, Nate Marquardt is set to address it on Tuesday, but we really don’t know. UFC President Dana White said “I give people second chances, and Nate is no exception. I’m disgusted with Nate, and he doesn’t deserve to fight in the UFC.”
I will have my full run down of the card tomorrow, but below are the rewards for the night followed by the quick results.
