The Ultimate Fighting Championship announced the winners of the $50,000 fighter bonuses stemming from UFC 190 following the event in Rio de Janeiro on Saturday 1st of August. Ronda Rousey, Demian Maia, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua and Rogerio Nogueira took home the coveted awards - the money :).
Rousey, the women’s bantamweight champion, finished Bethe Correia in just 34 seconds in the main event to earn a Performance of the Night bonus - an extra $50,000. Correia hoped Ronda Rousey would enter into a striking exchange with her and she got her wish. But Ronda Rousey pressed forward and landed from the start a combination along the cage that hurt Correira. After a few seconds the Brazilian tried to circle away, but Ronda Rousey landed now a right hand that left Correia face-down on the canvas.
