Round 1
Very inactive first round. The fighters clinched for the duration of the period, with the only offense coming by way of some knees to the body and leg from Prater.

Round 2
More of the same in the second. Prater keeps pushing Wisniewski to the cage, where he does little damage. Later in the round, Prater was able to trip up Wisniewski, who quickly got to his feet where he ate a knee that appeared to break his nose.
