Dana White: Joanne Calderwood will get bonus, new UFC deal

Dana White responded to Joanne Calderwood's disappointment about not getting a performance bonus at UFC Ottawa.

Last Saturday, Joanne Calderwood experienced the highs and lows of being a UFC fighter. The Scottish striker picked up a huge win over former strawweight title challenger Valerie Letourneau in the first women's flyweight fight in UFC history. But since she's on a TUF contract, she wasn't exactly making a lot of money, and she was hoping to get a performance bonus.

When that didn't come, she lamented that she was "broke as hell" and would have to get a job to save up to come back to Tri-Star in Montreal for another camp.
