On a night with no shortage of finishes, it was a pair of title contenders that picked up Performance of the Night bonuses.
Rafael dos Anjos and Henry Cejudo earned an extra $50,000 for their respective finishes of Neil Magny and Wilson Reis, while veterans Jeremy Stephens and Gilbert Melendez were also rewarded for a Fight of the Night performance at UFC 215 on Saturday at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta.
Now 2-0 at welterweight, dos Anjos made short work of Neil Magny in the evening’s co-main event, taking him down to the mat and slicing through his defenses to secure an arm-triangle choke submission in Round 1.
