UFC on FUEL TV 9 post-fight bonuses: Pickett, Easton, Madadi and McGregor take home $60k each

The UFC’s second trip to Sweden was a successful one, especially for a few lucky fighters who earned themselves $60,000 bonuses.

The main event fight was a one-sided jab-fest which went in favor of Gegard Mousasi over Ilir Latifi.

The ‘Fight of the Night’ was an all out slugfest between Brad Pickett and Mike Easton. Two out of the three judges scored the fight in favor of Pickett who got himself back in the win column.

Reza Madadi came from behind and was able to lock up a slick d’arce choke against Michael Johnson to nab himself ‘Submission of the Night’ honors.

In his highly anticipated UFC debut, Conor McGregor knocked out Marcus Brimage early in the first round to earn ‘Knockout of the Night.’
