The
Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters
performance bonuses following the
UFC on ABC 5 card.
Ilia
Topuria made the most of his UFC main event slot as he
dominated Josh Emmett
over five action-packed rounds, and both men are $50,000 richer as
a result of winning the Fight of the Night bonus. Topuria impressed
over five rounds and dished out a ton of damage, with Topuria
winning a unanimous decision with scores of 50-44, 50-42 and 49-45
in his favor. Emmett’s toughness made it all the more memorable as
the veteran fighter refused to wilt under pressure.
Two other fighters earned performance of the night bonuses with
impressive knockouts. First was David
Onama, whose impressive win over Gabriel
Santos earned him an extra $50,000. Onama
landed a brutal uppercut and blasted Santos to sleep with a series
of punches. Finally, Maycee
Barber took home a performance bonus for her destruction of
Amanda
Ribas.
Brutal elbows and ground-and-pound capped off an impressive
performance for Barber, who made a statement in the flyweight
division.
