UFC 223 Bonuses: Magomedsharipov, Bochniak, Gruetzemacher, Aubin-Mercier Get $50K

At the conclusion of their featherweight bout at UFC 223, Zabit Magomedsharipov and Kyle Bochniak received a standing ovation from those in attendance at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

A little bit later, both men received a much-deserved boost to their bank accounts in the form of $50,000 “Fight of the Night” bonus checks. Magomedshapirov, a highly touted prospect, improved to 3-0 in the UFC with a unanimous decision triumph, but Bochniak never backed down during the 15-minute affair. The bout concluded with both men swinging away wildly, much to the delight of the crowd.
