UFC On FOX 11 Bonus Awards

Following last night’s UFC On FOX 11 event in Orlando, Florida, the recipients of the evening’s $50,000 fighter bonus awards were announced.

Picking Up ‘Fight Of The Night’ honors was the three round striking battle on the preliminary card between Thiago Alves and Seth Baczynski.

The first ‘Performance Of The Night’ bonus went to Donald Cerrone who survived a rough opening few minutes against Edson Barboza before turning the fight on it’s head by dropping him and sinking in a rear-naked choke submission.

The second ‘Performance Of The Night’ award was handed to the debuting Alex White who stepped in at short notice to fight Estevan Payan and seized the opportunity in style with a TKO victory in less than 90 seconds.

Over the years I've watched the UFC develop into the powerhouse it is today, organizations like PRIDE, Strikeforce and WEC rise and fall, and Bellator emerge as a new force on the MMA landscape. Throughout it all I've remained captivated by the sport and I'm excited to cover what comes next here on MMA Insight.
