The Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters performance bonuses following the UFC on ABC 5 card.
Ilia Topuria made the most of his UFC main event slot as he dominated Josh Emmett over five action-packed rounds, and both men are $50,000 richer as a result of winning the Fight of the Night bonus. Topuria impressed over five rounds and dished out a ton of damage, with Topuria winning a unanimous decision with scores of 50-44, 50-42 and 49-45 in his favor. Emmett's toughness made it all the more memorable as the veteran fighter refused to wilt under pressure.
Two other fighters earned performance of the night bonuses with impressive knockouts. First was David Onama, whose impressive win over Gabriel Santos earned him an extra $50,000. Onama landed a brutal uppercut and blasted Santos to sleep with a series of punches. Finally, Maycee Barber took home a performance bonus for her destruction of Amanda Ribas. Brutal elbows and ground-and-pound capped off an impressive performance for Barber, who made a statement in the flyweight division.
