On a card full of back-and-forth matchups, two Fight of the Night awards were handed to Chris Leben vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama and Stephan Bonnar vs. Krzysztof Soszynski at UFC 116 Saturday in Las Vegas.
The other recipients of post-fight honors were Brock Lesnar for Submission of the Night and Gerald Harris for Knockout of the Night. All six competitors each received a $75,000 bonus for their efforts.
“In 10 years of being in the business i don’t believe I’ve seen guys deliver like they did tonight,” UFC president Dana White said at the post-fight press conference.
