The Ultimate Fighter China Finale
Saturday, March 1st
Macao, China
The tradition Knockout of the Night and Submission of the Night $50,000 bonuses were recently dropped in favor of two Performance of the Night bonuses. The change was instituted because there are events where no knockout or submission takes place. And that is exactly what happened here – there was no submissions, so the change means fighters get an extra $50,000 than they would have without the change.
Performance of the Night
Dong Hyun Kim defeated John Hathaway by KO (Spinning Elbow, 3rd Round, 1:02)
Performance of the Night
Matt Mitrione defeated Shawn Jordan by TKO (Punches, 1st Round, 4:59)
Fight of the Night
Yui Chul Nam defeated Kazuki Tokudome by Split Decision (29-27, 27-28, 29-28)
The TUF China Finale aired only on UFC FIght Pass.
