All finishes receive $50K bonuses at UFC on ESPN 37

It was a banner night for finishes at  UFC on ESPN 37, and those responsible for the violence in Austin, Texas, on Saturday night were rewarded for their efforts.

Of the 13 fights on the card, nine ended inside the distance. That included eight fights with knockout or technical knockout victories — tying a record for a single UFC event. As a result, all athletes who finished a fight received a $50K “Performance of the Night” bonus.

Those winners were as follows: Kevin Holland, Joaquin Buckley, Gregory Rodrigues, Adrian Yanez, Jeremiah Wells, Ricardo Ramos, Cody Stamann, Phil Hawes and Roman Dolidze.

Meanwhile, Josh Emmett and Calvin Kattar garnered “Fight of the Night” honors and $50K apiece for their competitive featherweight duel in the evening’s headliner. In a closely-contested bout, Emmett emerged with a split decision triumph.
