UFC Wichita Bonuses: ‘JDS’ & Derrick Lewis Bank Extra $50,000
Earlier tonight (Sat. March 9, 2019) UFC Wichita went down from the Intrust Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas.
On the main card, Beneil Dariush picked up his second-straight win when he submitted Drew Dober in the second round. Dariush locked up Dober in an impressive triangle armbar. The finish was good enough to earn Dariush a $50,000 Performance Of The Night bonus.
Also, Niko Price pulled off an amazing comeback against Tim Means. After being outdone on the feet for the majority of the first round, Price uncorked a hellacious hook that planted Means to the canvas. After some follow-up shots, the referee waved the action off with just 10 seconds to spare. Price’s knockout win will also earn him a $50,000 Performance Of The Night bonus.
Finally, in the main event of the night, UFC heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Derrick Lewis put on a great slugfest. Both men landed some vicious shots, but “JDS” landed the final sequence in the second round to pick up his third-straight victory. For their efforts, both men will receive a Fight Of The Night bonus worth $50,000 each.
