The first performance of the night bonus went to Alex Caceres. Caceres has been on a really impressive run in the UFC lately. He won his fifth straight fight against Seungwoo Choi. Caceres submitted Choi with a rear naked choke in the second round to make him tap out.

The second performance of the night went to Marvin Vettori. His fight with Costa was a truly remarkable one. After so much drama heading into the fight both fighters certainly pulled off arguably the best fight of the night. However, the fight was not given ‘fight of the night’ bonus because of unprofessional behavior shown by Costa heading into the fight. Vettori earned a unanimous decision victory after five hard fought rounds in the octagon.

The fight of the night bonus went to Gregory Rodrigues vs Junyong Park, Both fighters put on a very explosive fight. Both fighters were also going at it with full speed, however, it was Rodriguez who had the last laugh. Rodriguez was pressuring his opponent throughout and also eventually earned a second round knockout victory.
