slack_415 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 The Ultimate Fighting Championship handed out $60,000 bonus checks for UFC 109 performances at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on Saturday. Earning the bonuses were: Matt Serra, Paulo Thiago, Chael Sonnen and Nate Marquardt. Fight of the Night honors went to the middleweight top contender?s bout between Nate Marquardt and Chael Sonnen. Sonnen dominated the better part of the fight with superior wresting, although Marquardt came on in the final round but came up short on the judges? scorecards. The Knockout of the Night went to former UFC welterweight titleholder Matt Serra who caught Frank Trigg with a right hand, sending him to the canvas and finishing the former MMAWeekly Radio co-host with strikes on the ground half way through the first round. Submission of the Night went to Paulo Thiago's choke out of Mike Swick. It was a close first round, but a counter punch in the second round sent Swick down where the Brazilian was able to finish with a choke. Total bonus money paid out for UFC 109 was $240,000.

CindyO Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Coulda swore they said Couture got sub of the night. I remember because I highly disagreed. They did say that but Joe Silva sent me a text and said Thiago got the sub bonus, not Randy. Joe & Goldie made a mistake. Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boon1406052403 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 loved the KO and sub. KO was average KO of the night, but because it was serra smacking the rear naked joke... awesome... and that sub was so nice, the camera angles had it so you could see it perfectly, his hand creeping through then popping out and grabbing it with his other hand. then swicks face as he went to sleep, with his neck cranked at some weird angle but they should give $120k to chael, nate was pitiful!

Martino231 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 The UFC Submission of the Year for 2009 was a Terry Etim d'arce choke so it's understandable that Thiago won that. It was just amazing how he pounced on Swick and transitioned into it so quickly. I don't think theres any argument over Serra getting KO of the Night, and the Sonnen vs Marquardt fight had a lot of exciting moments with Marquardts submission attempts, and then frantic swinging at the end, combined with Sonnen's double legs and merciless GnP.
