UFC Bonus Awards are three separate cash bonuses usually awarded to four fighters after each UFC event, based on internal decision by UFC management. More/fewer bonuses have been awarded at some events, especially when no knockouts or submissions occurred.
- Fight of the Night: Awarded to the two fighters who delivered the most impressive fight on the card.[1]
- Knockout of the Night: Awarded to the fighter with the most impressive knockout/technical knockout.[2]
- Submission of the Night: Awarded to the fighter with the most impressive submission.[3]
- Performance of the Night: On February 11, 2014, the UFC announced a modification to its live event bonuses. Since UFC Fight Night 36, UFC has awarded Fight of the Night Bonuses to each of the fighters in the best fight of the night, as well as additional Performance of the Night Bonuses. The Performance of the Night bonuses are awarded to the athletes who put on the best and most exciting individual performances. The Submission of the Night and the Knockout of the Night bonuses have been discontinued and the bonus amounts remained $50,000.
