The Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters performance bonuses following the UFC on ESPN 46 card.

Co-main event fighters Alex Caceres and Daniel Pineda each took home an additional $50,000 as they received fight of the night honors. The back-and-forth fight saw Caceres ultimately prevail, although both men had their moments through out. Thanks to the high pace that lasted the entire 15 minutes, both men received a bonus for their thrilling performance.

Two other fighters earned performance of the night bonuses with impressive knockout wins. Jim Miller scored the fastest knockout win of his career over late replacement Jesse Butler. A beautiful combination of punches from Miller slept Butler. Finally, Muhammadjon Naimov received $50,000 for wrecking Jamie Mullarkey in an upset win. A perfectly-timed punch was enough to score the comeback victory.

UFC Fight Night 223 Bonuses:

Alex Caceres - $50,000
Daniel Pineda - $50,000
Jim Miller - $50,000
Muhammadjon Naimov - $50,000
