UFC Philadelphia bonuses: Justin Gaethje earns another Fight of the Night award

Only three things in life are certain: Death, taxes and Justin Gaethje earning a Fight of the Night bonus.

Gaethje, a former WSOF champion, added yet another $50,000 to his bank account for his one-round war against Edson Barboza in Saturday’s main event UFC Philadelphia. This marks Gaethje’s sixth post-fight bonus in only five fights since debuting in the UFC in 2017. The man dubbed “The Highlight” previously earned Fight of the Night accolades for his wars against Michael Johnson, Eddie Alvarez and Dustin Poirier while earning a Performance of the Night for his destruction of James Vick.
