The hard-hitting South African earned a controversial decision over Hawaiian Falaniko "Niko" Vitale (24-8) in the tournament opener, when an eye injury caused doctors to stop the fight after two closely fought rounds. The three ringside judges scored the bout 19-19, 19-19, and 20-18 for Vitale, ruling the bout a majority draw. That meant the decision would go to the referee who, with Vitale injured and unable to progress further in the tournament, awarded the fight to Prangley (17-4). As seen on The Vault, Santiago (15-7) scored a devastating knockout over Sean Salmon (14-5) just seconds into their opening round fight, to earn a date with Prangley in the finals. Who will win the first-ever sanctioned MMA tournament in the Golden State? The answer lies within The Vault.
