On a night when Amanda Nunes staked her claim to being the greatest fighter in women’s MMA history, it should come as no surprise that she got a little something extra for her work.
Nunes received a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonus for her stunning knockout of Cristiane Justino in the UFC 232 main event at the Forum in Inglewood, Calif., on Saturday night. Nunes rocked “Cyborg” early and didn’t let up, ultimately sending her opponent face-first to the canvas with a right hand just 51 seconds after the featherweight title bout began.
