UFC 154 Post-Fight Bonuses: GSP and Condit earn Fight of the Night
UFC 154 brought us an exciting night of fights featuring Georges St-Pierre’s successful return to the Octagon after a long layoff. With it came the traditional Fight Night bonuses, and GSP versus Carlos Condit earned the award for Fight of the Night. It was highly deserving of the award as the main event delivered a bloody war in which neither fighter was willing to give up. The two pocketed $70,000 apiece for their efforts.
As far as the other awards, Ivan Menjivar earned the 70K for Submission of the Night, submitting Azamat Gashimov in the first round with a nice armbar. With the win, he has taken four victories out of five fights and is riding a surge of momentum.
Lastly, in what comes as absolutely no surprise, Johny Hendricks earned Knockout of the Night for his dismantling of Martin “The Hitman” Kampmann. Taking only 46 seconds to blast Kampmann into oblivion, Hendricks will now be calling for his title shot. What remains to be seen is if he will actually get it or not. what are your thoughts on the night’s event from Montreal?
