UFC 178 $50,000 ‘of the Night’ performance Bonuses

Fight of the Night:

Yoel Romero defeated Tim Kennedy by TKO (Strikes, Round 3, 0:58)

Performance of the Night:

Dominick Cruz defeated Takeya Mizugaki by KO (Punches, Round 1, 1:01)

Performance of the Night:

Conor McGregor defeated Dustin Poirier by TKO (Strikes, Round 1, 1:46)

UFC 178 was a tremendous card, with fight after fight thrilling the fans. Dominick Cruz showed he may still be the best bantamweight on Earth, and it wasn’t even on the main card. Given the controversy around Romero’s stool, should he have gotten an extra 50K; flip side is of course, Kennedy did get an extra 50. “Cowboy” Cerrone was awesome, and didn’t win a bonus; that was weird. Cat Zingano came back from a tough first round and got a shot at Ronda Rousey by throwing Amanda Nunes upside down and backwards, over and over. What was your favorite fight? And if you were in Dana White’s Nikes, would you have given the discretionary performance bonuses to Cruz and McGregor?
