1 Originally Ivan Salaverry was supposed to partake in the superfight but along with an IFL agreement he had a contract with the now defunct WFA. After the UFC bought out the WFA Salaverry's contract was put up into limbo preventing him from participating in the superfight.

2 Originally the superfight was to be between IFL coaches Maurice Smith and Marco Ruas but during training Ruas injured himself cancelling this fight. It has now been rescheduled for the May 19th show.
