UFC 199 post-fight bonuses: New champ Bisping, Hendo take home extra cash for KOs

UFC 199 was wild in every regard, from the moment Bruce Buffer introduced Polo Reyes and Dong Hyun Kim to the moment he announced Michael Bisping as the new UFC middleweight champion. It was a fantastic card full of upsets, devastating knockouts and comebacks capped off by a pair of title fights. Bisping captured the 185-pound title in shocking and devastating fashion with a first-round knockout of Luke Rockhold in the evening's main event, and bantamweight titleholder Dominick Cruz dominated Urijah Faber to defend his belt for the first time in the co-feature.

Following the event, UFC officials handed out four post-fight bonuses worth $50,000 each for Performance of the Night (x2) and Fight of the Night (x2).
