Mo money, mo problems ...
The dust has barely settled on UFC on FOX 14: "Gustafsson vs. Johnson" from Tele2 Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, which means it's time to honor those select fighters who went above and beyond in their respective fights last night (Jan. 24, 2015).
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) dished out its standard post-fight monetary bonuses to four of the 24 fighters on the card, and it's probably no surprise who is heading home with a little extra grease for their efforts.
This time around, Anthony Johnson was awarded with a "Performance of the Night" bonus after his shocking, and brutal upset of Alexander Gustafsson in the main event, while Makwan Amirkhani earned the same honor thanks to his eight-second flying knee finish of Andy Ogle on the "Prelims" under card.
"Fight of the Night?" Not this time around, as UFC decided to grease Gegard Mousasi and Kenny Robertson instead for their crushing first round finishes of Dan Henderson and Sultan Aliev, respectively.
Here are the special UFC on FOX 14 bonuses:
Performance of the Night -- Anthony Johnson
Performance of the Night -- Gegard Mousasi
Performance of the Night -- Makwan Amirkhani
Performance of the Night -- Kenny Robertson
Again, each fighter received $50,000 extra for their performances in addition to their respective base salaries, which we will pass along as soon as possible if that information is made available.
