Wineland and Herrig drew the Performances of the Night while Knight and Alers drew the Fight of the Night.  All earned $50,000 bonuses.

The event ranked fourth out of 5 events at the United Center in Chicago.

1. UFC on Fox 2: 17,245, $1,270,960 gate
2. UFC on Fox 6: 16,091, $1,270,000 gate
3. UFC on Fox 16: 11,663, $1,200,000 gate
4. UFC on Fox 20: 10,287, $1,000,000 gate
5. UFC on Fox 10: 10,895, $863,655 gate

Payout Perspective:

A $1 million gate is very good for this event considering that the co-main of Anthony Johnson and Glover Teixeira was pulled off the card leaving Holm as your real main attraction.  The bonuses were fair although I thought that they could have given a bonus to Francis Ngannou.
