Valentina Shevchenko, Thiago Santos, Anthony Smith and Iuri Alcantara all received post-fight bonuses for their work at UFC Fight Night 125 in Belem, Brazil on Saturday night.
Shevchenko announced herself as a top women’s flyweight contender and earned a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonus in the process in a lopsided beatdown of Priscila Cachoeira in the evening’s co-main event. “Bullet” dominated all aspects of the contest en route to securing a rear-naked choke at the 4:25 mark of round two.
Santos and Smith captured “Fight of the Night” honors and $50,000 apiece for their wild middleweight slugfest.
