The
Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters
performance bonuses following the
UFC 296 card.
Fight of the Night went to Irene
Aldana and Karol Rosa.
The duo’s prelim scrap was a back-and-forth war that lasted 15
minutes. Both women kept coming forward despite the damage taken,
and fans were appreciative of their efforts. Aldana would take a
unanimous decision win with three 29-28 cards given in her
favor.
The three other Performance of the Night bonuses were well-earned.
Josh
Emmett earned an extra $50,000 for his shocking knockout of
Bryce
Mitchell, which left the featherweight convulsing on the floor
afterward. The „Queen of Violence,“ Ariane
Lipski, also received a bonus for her
impressive armbar submission win over Casey
O’Neill. Finally, Shamil
Gaziev picked up a bonus for his
TKO win over Martin
Buday.
