MMA Junkie reports the bonuses for Saturday’s UFC on FX 8 which were the standard $50,000. In addition, attendance, but not gate, was announced at the post-fight press conference.
Bonuses
Fight of the Night: Lucas Martins and Jeremy Larsen
Submission of the Night: Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza
KO of the Night: Vitor Belfort
Attendance was announced at 7,642 for the arena which has a 15,000 person capacity and usually houses volleyball and futsal.
Payout Perspective:
No surprises with the bonuses for submission or KO. The crowd was into the fights the whole night and had the Fight of the Night (Martins/Larsen) to cheer for from the beginning as it was during the Facebook prelims.
Machiel Van says
Kind of surprised by the low attendance. Isn’t Vitor a huge star in Brazil?
Andrew Esch says
it was sold-out they weren’t selling a lot of sections of it.
Machiel Van says
“Sold-out” or sold-out? And if it was the latter, why would they use such a restrictive configuration?
