Ronaldo Souza and Chris Weidman will be going home with a little extra cash in their pocket for their back-and-forth war on Saturday night.
The two middleweight contenders engaged in what was one of the best fights of this year in the co-main event of UFC 230, which took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The fight ended via third-round technical knockout in favor of ‘Jacare’, but both men will be taking $50,000 each, as they were awarded Fight of the Night awards.
The news was announced by UFC president Dana White at the post-fight press conference.
