Co-Main Event Takes Home Fight of the Night (UFC 209 Bonuses)
The Ultimate Fighting Championship announced the fighter bonuses stemming from the UFC 209 pay-per-view event following Saturday's event in Las Vegas. Darren Elkins, Iuri Alcantara, David Teymur, and Lando Va nnata were awarded the $50,000 performance-based incentives.
Fight of the Night honors went to the co-main event fighters, lightweights Teymur and Vannata. The two put on an incredible striking display and showed their durability in the back-and-forth battle. The judges scored the fight for Teymur by unanimous decision with all three judges scorecards showing 30-27, but the scorecards didn't reflect how close of a fight that it was.
