I initially decided to check out Matt Serra vs. Din Thomas, an unaired prelim which took place at UFC 41 on Feb. 28, 2003, because it was the first fight in Ultimate Fighting Championship history—and possibly the first MMA fight, period—in which the original announcement of the winner was overturned by a commission. Originally called as a victory for Serra, it was discovered later that night that Thomas had won on the scorecards. (Think Giga Chikadze versus Brandon Davis first being called a split draw and then amended to a split decision for Chikadze at the UFC event in Copenhagen last September.
