UFC on Versus 6 of the Night Bonuses

Knockout of the Night

Anthony Johnson, vs. Charlie Brenneman

$65,000

There cries from some quarters that the stoppage was too quick, but UFC President Dana White disagreed “I agree 100 percent with that stoppage,” he said. “He was on crazy legs before the kick to the head happened. And again, there’s a fine line between stopped too early and stopped too late, and I’ll takes stopped too early every time. I thought he was hurt before the kick to the face … And that was a kick to the face.”



Submission of the Night

Stefan Struve, vs. Patt Barry

$65,000

Struve survived a monster slam, which served only to add an armbar to Pat Barry’s problems



Fight of the Night

Matt Wiman and Mac Danzig

$65,000 each

Both fighters finished bruised and bloodied, with Wiman earned the unanimous-decision victory, for causing damage from close range and in the clinch.
