The UFC changed things up a bit for their UFC Fight Night bonuses.
With a series of standout performances, but no one real barnburner of a bout, the company handed out four performances bonuses after Saturday’s event in Berlin, Germany and ditched Fight of the Night:
*Gegard Mousasi was a winner after his impressive first-round, main event finish of Mark Munoz.
*C.B. Dolloway outworked Francis Carmont in the co-main event and earned himself some extra money.
*Niklas Backstrom earned a bonus for his superb UFC debut, in which he finished Tom Niinimaki with a choke in the first round.
*Magunus Cedenlbad submitted Kryszstof Jotko with a first-round guillotine.
UFC European vice-president Garry Cook announced the bonuses as $50,000 pound apiece, although it is assumed he meant U.S. dollars, which is the usual standard for the UFC’s bonuses.
