UFC 137 results: Hatsu Hioki defeats George Roop by split decision (29-28 Hioki, 29-28 Roop, 29-28 Hatsu Hioki).
George Roop was a contestant on the eighth season of "The Ultimate Fighter." After going 1-2 in the UFC, he was cut, but it only took one fight outside of the UFC to bring him back to Zuffa, this time in the WEC. After trying his hand at bantamweight, he's now settled in the featherweight division.
