The
Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters
performance bonuses after the
UFC 272 pay-per-view card.
It was main eventers Colby
Covington and Jorge
Masvidal that took home fight of the night honors, with each
pocketing an extra $50,000. The five-round bout went the full 25
minutes with “Chaos” never slowing down and always pressuring a
very game Masvidal, who badly hurt his opponent in Round 4 yet
never capitalized on the moment. Ultimately, Covington took a
clear-cut unanimous decision win.
Kevin
Holland‘s welterweight debut is off to a good start as “Trailblazer” took home a performance bonus after defeating
Alex
Oliveira. Holland went back-and-forth with “Cowboy” over the
opening frame, but then went into another gear after Round 2 began.
A barrage of vicious elbows ended the night for the Brazilian as
Holland improved to 22-7, 1 NC.
Finally, Ukrainian women’s flyweight veteran Maryna
Moroz picked up a performance bonus for her feel-good victory
over Mariya
Agapova. Moroz dominated the fight and
locked in an arm-triangle choke in Round 2. “The Iron Lady” has
now won three straight fights.
