This was the first UFC tournament that was not won by Royce Gracie (who could not continue due to fatigue). Jennum was a replacement for Ken Shamrock, who made it to the finals but withdrew due to a knee injury. Replacement fighter Steve Jennum won the tournament by defeating Harold Howard via submission due to strikes, despite only fighting in the finals. The referee for the night was "Big" John McCarthy. Competitors could only win a match by submission, throwing in the towel, knockout, or referee stoppage. Each match had no time limit or rounds therefore no judges were used for the night. The tournament had no weight classes or weight limits. UFC 3 used an eight-man tournament format, with the winner receiving $60,000.
