UFC 88: Breakthrough Fight Bonuses

September 7, 2008 · Filed Under 88, UFC 

As always the UFC selected fighters that are deserving of recieving some extra cash for their efforts. The fight bonus this time around was $60,000 each. No surprise who the knock out of the night went to though right?

Knockout of the Night: Rashad Evans took the 60K for his one punch KO on Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell.

Submission of the Night: Jason MacDonald took submission of the night due to it being the only submission. He got a rear-naked choke on Jason Lambert.

Fight of the Night: Kurt Pellegrino and Thiago Tavares took fight of the night. I never got to see it but I hear it was a good one.

So two of the three win bonuses came from the preliminary bouts. I personally believe that this event was a big mess up on Joe Silva’s part. Matt Brown and Dong Hyun Kim should of never been on the main card, if anything Jason MacDonald deserved to be there due to his recent performances.
