UFC Vegas 65 post-fight bonuses: Every finish gets extra $50k

UFC Vegas 65 underwent a significant change mid-way through the event, losing its original headliner between Derrick Lewis and Serghei Spivac to illness. We were still given an OK offering, with the newly minted headliner ending in devastating fashion.

The preliminary portion of the card got off to a great start as Natália Silva spun her way to a third-round TKO win over Tereza Bleda. The Brazilian hit a well-timed spinning back kick to the chin of Bleda, which sent her to the canvas immediately. Silva followed up with several punches before the referee called it.
