Montel
Jackson
authored one of the fastest knockouts in
UFC
bantamweight history on Saturday night, and he received a
little extra compensation for his efforts.

“Quik” garnered a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonus for his
18-second stoppage of Da’Mon Blackshear in their preliminary bout
at UFC
on ESPN 59
at the Ball Arena in Denver on Saturday night.
Jackson put his foe’s lights out with a straight left hand during
an initial exchange, entering the record books as the
second-fastest finish in UFC bantamweight history.

Meanwhile, Jean Silva
and Drew
Dober
received “Fight of the Night” honors and $50,000 apiece
for their lightweight slugfest. Moving up a division, Silva had a
faster and more diverse striking arsenal than his foe, bloodying
Dober with lead hooks and spinning elbows. That assault opened a
huge gash over Dober’s eye and led to a doctor stoppage at the 1:28
mark of Round 3, giving the Brazilian his second win in 14
days.

Finally, Charles
Johnson
took home a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” check
for his flyweight victory over Joshua Van.
The first two frames were closely contested, with Van holding the
edge in power and Johnson hanging around thanks to volume. However,
“InnerG” began the final round with a sense of urgency, wobbling
his foe with a right hook to the head and dropping him with a
massive uppercut to bring an end to the contest at the 20-second
mark of Round 3.
